Focus on 1 Raid Champion at a Time
Pick your best Champion and max out their Level, Rank, and Ascension. If you try to balance your squad it will be weaker overall. One strong Champion is better to have than 4 average. Once you have maximized one Champion you can move on to the next. You will also clear high-level Campaign Stages quicker with one strong Champion which will speed up the leveling process for the next.
Sacrifice Low Rank Champions
There is a limit to how many Champions you can hold at any one time. Sacrifice Rank 1 Star Champions in the Tavern to level your better Champions.
Rank your Best Champions
Ranking your best Champions will give their base stats a huge boost. To rank a Champion, it must be at its max level. You then need to select the Rank option in the Tavern and sacrifice Champions or Chickens of the same rank to move your Champion up another star level.
You must sacrifice a number of Champions equal to your Champion’s current rank level. After this process, their level will be reset to one. However, they will be much more powerful especially once you level them again. The max rank is 6 stars. Read our Raid Champion Ranking Guide for more details.
Ascend your Best Champions
Ascending Champions will increase their base stats. They can be ascended up to a maximum level equal to their Rank. You must use potions to ascend your Champions. The potion required will depend on the Champion’s Affinity. Higher quality Champions cost more to Ascend. Positions can be obtained by taking part in Dungeon battles.
Upgrade Champion Skills
A Champion’s skills all start at level 1. The level can be increased by sacrificing Skill Tomes or a duplicate Champion in the Tavern. Rare Champions require a Rare Skill Tome, Epic Champions an Epic Skill Tome, and Legendary Champions a Legendary Skill Tome. Skill books are rare to come by, so do not waste them on Champions you do not plan to use in the long term.
Save your Raid Shadow Legends Shards
Save your Void, Ancient and Legendary Shards for Summoning Boost Events. These are regular events that increase your chances of summoning higher-quality Champions.
Get a Portable Charger
Raid Shadow Legends is a great game but will use a lot of your Cell Phone’s battery. Getting a portable charger will ensure this is no longer a problem. Check out our list of the Best Cell Phone Power Banks for Gaming.
Upgrade your Mine
Upgrade your mine as soon as you are able. It can go up to level 3 with each upgrade costing 500 gems. It is an expensive cost initially but will pay dividends in the long term. The higher the level the more gems are produced and at a quicker rate.
Sell Low-Quality Artifacts
Artifacts are obtained from completing battles and events. You will often receive low-rarity and low-ranked items. These are of no use to your champions and should just be sold in exchange for Silver. They can be sold in bulk by selecting the Sell option when viewing your Artifact inventory.
Focus your resources on upgrading your best Artifacts for your Champions. Read our detailed Raid Shadow Legends Artifact and Accessory Guide for all you need to know about this feature.
Complete the Daily Raid Shadow Legends Quest
Quests offer an easy way to gain Shards, Experience, Gems, and Silver. Completing these every day will also contribute towards the Weekly and Monthly Quests which give even greater rewards.
Make use of Promo Codes
The game developers regularly release promo codes that can be redeemed for special rewards. These are often announced on the game’s Twitter Page and within the Raid Shadow Legends game via the News menu. They are redeemed by simply entering the code after selecting the Promo Code menu button. However, be careful not to put too many wrong attempts in as this can activate a cooldown.
