Upgrade Strategy
Eric sits in C Tier — legacy roster: bench depth for multi-march events and Expedition, not a primary shard target. Legendary heroes are the core of every march — but only when matched to your kingdom generation.
- Star priority: unlock at 10 shards, then push stars while each tier still costs under ~100 shards; slow down at 4★–5★ and keep this hero matched to your current-era roster.
- Skill order: level the damage skill first, then the survival skill — check the upgrade tables above and feed whichever skill scales hardest per level.
- Class fit: Infantry soaks damage for the whole march — pair them with your frontline research before judging their performance.
- Stop signal: Do not buy or chase new shards for this hero — use what you already have.
Fully starring any hero takes 1,065 shards (+10 to unlock). That is months of event income — spend it where the tier list says it compounds, not on older-generation carries.
