In poking around PVP last night, I came across the hero described above. Didn’t take a screenshot so I won’t name names. Said hero was getting +4 life from team bonuses (4 Whitehelm troops and 3 divines), which leaves 72 life unaccounted for. My question is how this is possible. There is a 19-point difference between my hero and one at a lower level, so I want to figure out what I could be doing to improve my own stats. I am level 470 with 19 5-star kingdoms (missing 2 life and 4 armor), and my level 20 archer has 53 life. The difference between priest (which this hero was) and archer is 4 life, and the +8 life from guild bonuses brings the difference down to 7. 5 if we assume that this player has all relevant kingdoms five-starred. So how can I increase my hero’s life total, beyond kingdom stars, class level, and guild bonuses? There’s 5 life I can’t account for, which suggests I am not doing something I _could_ be doing to make the game easier on myself. ---

That may be true (I don’t know what, exactly, the glitch is), but it’s not hitting all heroes equally. ---

They may have chosen the +8 life perk that priest surely has? ---

Guild Bonus is +8 life assuming both tasks are completed. ---

Then they couldn’t have been getting the bonus for 4 unique divine troops. Edit: ah, their team had the 3-divine bonus, not 4. So they may have taken the +life perk rather than the type perk. I don’t recall what else was on the team, but Whitehelm has no shortage of divine troops to fill out a team with. I guess that solves the mystery. ---

“I guess that solves the mystery” Scooby Doo and the gang would be proud. ---

Guild bonus (2 sets of task completed) =8, Hero’s perk = 8, plus 3 unique bonus that would round up to additional 19 life.
