Farm Heroic Mode made easy... Well, maybe

[inzendrin]

I know we are well underway toward the deadline to collect our Star Crystals and craft our Crystal Finmail EPIC.. If you haven't started or have been struggling there is no need to worry! R-E-L-A-X!!!

I put together a spreadsheet that I've been referencing as a quick guide to determine which armors to use and which armors to avoid on each of the Heroic mode regions. I realized I've been sharing with my son and guild but this could probably benefit everyone.

Feel free to browse it, if you see any errors message me or leave a comment and I will update it.

Explanation of the columns

Region is the name of the board (ie Relic Ruins, Thieves Cove, etc, etc)

Elements are listed from MOST present to LEAST present in the region
Ea = Earth | Fi = Fire | Sp = Spirit | Wa = Water | Ai = Air

Mini Boss is the big monster that appears on every stage of a region. (I wasn't sure what to call them so I dubbed them mini's.)

In the "Boss" column I listed the elements the boss uses. The boss is the final monster on stage 6 of each region. Just like regular dungeons, they are bigger, hit much harder, and have much more hp. I strongly suggest building to counter these elements.

Suggested Armor is the best armor to use on the region (in my opinion.)
Generally I suggest armors strong against both the boss and mini. I always avoid using any elements that are weak to either.

(Work in progress - Notes) I've listed in the notes column which armor fragments are dropped by mini's and bosses.

Some general information about the Heroic stages that I have noticed...

Each heroic region is 6 stages long.

Each stage has a mini (boss) that is larger, has more hp, and hits harder than regular monsters.
Minis will drop either (1) 4 star armor fragment or (5) 2 star armor fragments if defeated with a special attack.
Mini's appear on EVERY stage of the region, usually very first on stage 1 and right before the boss on stage 6.
Mini's are a great place to unload those special attacks!

Some elements listed in game don't appear much or only on the boss.
I went through each region and listed them in the order from MOST present to LEAST present.
Don't panic when you see 4 or 5 elements on a stage, only the mini's and the boss hit hard.
Personally I always build my 2nd and 3rd knight to counter the boss (suggested armors)

If you are not level 100, this is a great way to earn XP.
If you can power through a heroic region, then do your run when your knights are full.
After your run, use the remaining knights to carry on with quests, rest, repeat.

I wanted to put Adisty's comment up here. This is a great tip for defeating Kingdom of Darkness - Heroic.

Also, (this idea was mentioned in another post) going for Kingdom of Darkness is best when your experience bar is about 80% full, hire two friends and you should level up somewhere in the middle of the stage and be able to finish without the use of gems. Then just farm an easier Heroic stage (I like Crimson Forest) to earn XP, rinse and repeat.

And lastly, R E L A X !!! :P You still have a couple weeks to rock out some water epix.

If you see errors please comment or message me here, I will try to correct them.
