Hello everyone !

I’m confused about Base Skills (skills that increase when your hero levels up). It looks like the Game Guide isn’t accurate with the real situation ingame.

> Each time you level-up your Hero they will increase their Skills (stats) and grow more powerful.
> Whenever you level-up your Hero (character), they will gain an extra Skill point or stat permanently...

I’m level 1456, and according to the link above, I should have +10 Attack, +7 Magic, +19 Life and +17 Shield. If I add the fact our hero starts level 1 with 3 Attack, 1 Magic, 6 Life and 3 Shield, my current base skills should be :

- 13 Attack
- 8 Magic
- 25 Life
- 20 Shield

But on my profile, I have 11 Attack, 22 Life and 16 Shield (only Magic is correct).

Did I miss something, or is there something wrong in the Game Guide ?

Thanks for your answers.

Not sure if this helps, but it appears that for some unknown reason, they omit the initial stats. If you add up your attack, you get 47 points, instead of the 50 diaplayed, which accounts for the base 3 points.

Same thing with magic, where 1 point is left out.

Life only had 4 points missing, not the 6 you mentioned.

And armor had 4 points missing, not the 3 you mentioned.

Unless your initial stats are wrong, then the problem is that they don’t include the initial stats in the base stats. But if your initial values are correct, there are other problems.

It doesn’t take your currently equipped weapon into account, you get bonus stats from the first five upgrades.

Initial stats are 3 Attack, 1 Magic, 6 Life and 3 Armor, for sure. The global stats in our profile aren’t accurate, it changes everytime, look at this now.

At low level, everything is fine, it’s between levels 50 and 700 I’m pretty sure the guide isn’t accurate.

Initial stats (3 Attack, 1 Magic, 6 Life and 3 Armor), + one extra point per stat (won at levels 2, 3, 4 and 5) ; everything is OK.

So, my base attack is definitely 47 (and 80 life and 69 armor, but I’m taking attack stat for the example) : 11 base skills (3 as initial stat, and 8 thanks to level up), 28 with kingdoms, 6 with guild and 2 with delves = 47.

And if I go for a weapon, for example Scout’s Bow with Dervish, I up to 65 attack. Why ? Because Dervish gives 13 attack at level 20, and weapon gives 5 attack at max level. 47 + 13 + 5 = 65.

And if I select this weapon for a team, I up to 71, thanks to the artefact.

I can continue like this, but originally, I did this topic because the guide isn’t accurate with my base skills.

- my base attack is 11, whereas it should be 13 according to the guide ;
- my base life is 22, whereas it should be 25 according to the guide ;
- my base armor is 16, whereas it should be 20 according to the guide.

This gap is the same for 2 other players in my Guild, who are at levels 1556 and 722 respectively. My “test” account is level 5 (shown in the 2nd screenshot) and it’s correct. My girlfriend is level 42 an it’s correct too. That’s why I still consider the guide is possibly wrong between levels 50 and 700.

I got the confirmation that the guide isn’t accurate (at least between levels 80 and 250), here are the real values. Maybe I’ll directly contact the support to fix that, unless if they can read the topic.
