Fortress Saga: AFK RPG – Hero Usage Guide Up to Sanctum

Which Heroes to Use

Ву SkyJackA.

Just Starting

• The Dong

It is invaluable to learn early on how powerful Gildong can be. For only 1000 gems, you can buy him from the Reroll Shop. His role is to buff the attack (atk) of your heroes by a certain percentage. This buff actually scales with Skill Effect (SE), which can significantly increase his performance. He is definitely an early-game carry. Items or benefits acquired from certain in-game purchases, like Ruin, have a similar effect of allowing your heroes to deal more damage.

• DPS Jagens

These heroes will be your main DPS. Consider using food on these first.

• Attack Passive

Self-explanatory, I’d recommend Soba.

• Will be useful soon

Not important as of current but will be later on. Investment is not entirely wasted on these.

• Filler

Self-explanatory

• “We have gold farmers at home”

Gold passive heroes, okay if you really need gold.

• 5* Иut…

Lucky if you have them, though use carefully.

• DEF/RES Filth

These heroes specialize in DEF and RES, ignore them.

• Cerus

Somehow even worse.

• Slimes

Refrain from buying for now.

• Unobtainable

All Other Dimension heroes and a Guild Shop character.

Lengendary Hero Pre-Sanctum

• DPS

These offer the best DPS you could ask for.

• Chump-blocking

These summon peons that can distract enemies and take hits

• Buffer

Self-explanatory, all of these have perks that stack

• Bossing

Gildong can give the extra damage needed to take down bosses

• Farming

These offer good KPM, Jibril and Louis need their exclusive weapons, and Young Solumn simply buffs the lines on weapons your dwarves equip.

• Bjorn

The Orichalcum ignores ranged damage, so use melee like Bjorn to kill it.

• Possession Effect Slave

Usually give powerful possession effects to buff your stats.

Sanctum Build

• God

Hoya will be your main source of damage for fort build. A DEF Gold line exclusive weapon for her will garner excellent value.

• Sanctum Tank Buff

Heroes that activate the tank buff and will be your main source of HP. I recommend Boomer and Malleus especially.

• Sanctum Healer Buff

Heroes that activate the healer buff and can patch up your fort.

• Debuffer

These either allow your heroes to deal more damage or, for Mael, hinder special enemy attacks from occuring.

• Chump-blocker

Same role as previous.

• Pre-Fort Build DPS

Use these if you still rely on heroes for damage.

• Pre-Fort Build Buffer

Same as above, as these do not affect your fort’s damage.
