What to level, what to park

Level, in this order

  1. Forest Hunter Ultimate Skill
  2. Mountain God Wrath Active Skill
  3. Lady of the Forest Passive Skill
  4. Dagger Auto Attack

Zoya's Ultimate Skill is Forest Hunter; focus on it first. Mountain God Wrath is next, because enemies it hits take 20% more Energy damage. Then Lady of the Forest for Crit Rate, and her Auto Attack last.

Tenacity can't be levelled: it unlocks at its star requirement and stays fixed.

Skill check

How much the squad loses if this one skill is left at level 1: win-rate points against strong squads, with the hero's lost damage in brackets. Each column is every hero built the way they usually are at that Sanctuary level. It only counts fights against other squads, so it's one part of the order above, not the whole story. The biggest in each column is in bold.

Research that helps

  1. Hero tree, Warrior techs (Lab 5-21): ATK +15%, DMG +15% first, then HP +15%, DEF +15%. The cheapest big boost for this hero.
  2. Squad tree for the squad this hero fights in (Lab 9-13): ATK, DEF and HP +5% each, plus Energy DMG +5%.
  3. Hero tree, all-hero techs (Lab 23-24): ATK, DEF, HP and DMG +10% each for every hero.
  4. Offensive or Defensive Tactics (Lab 20-25): +30% ATK, DEF and HP in PvP. Offensive if you attack, Defensive if you mostly guard your city.
  5. Warrior Mastery (Lab 30, late game): Warrior ATK, HP and DEF +15% each, DMG +10%, and Synergy techs that grow with every Warrior hero you field.

Skip the monster-only techs (Blight Slayer, Boost RES) unless this squad hunts monsters.
