In short, Wilders and Graveborns are the two best Factions in AFK Arena for all players (excluding Celestials, Hypogeans, and Dimensionals).įirst, let me explain the two routes of F2P that I’ll discuss here. This faction stands among the best in the game, however does struggle due to their best heroes not being store accessible and often requiring some wishlist luck, it’s very difficult to overinvest in wilders unless you start making the very low priority heroes such as Seirus or Solise. These heroes do not ever fall off, and continue to grow in effectiveness as PvE and PvP staples, however, there is a lack of tankiness in the faction which requires gear to truly shine due to dodge tanks and Tasi. They provide some of the highest pushing potentials in the game, although their carries very early game are lacking a little, but as soon as mythic gear is an option both Eironn and Saurus become very effective. This faction doesn’t lack in any regard of the game. Wilders have always been the most consistent heroes in the game, from the classic “wilder trio” of Tasi, Lyca, and Nemora to vastly newer staples like Eironn on Saurus.

Most may call Maulers the worst of the four factions, however, there’s a solid debate to be had around this now with end game statistics consistently showing a rise in the faction. If you plan on using maulers, delay it till late game and end when you can pair them with even more synergistic heroes, Wilders ideally with heroes such as Eironn and Lyca. (If you aren’t aware of what these are, look into it! They come later into the game.) These heroes, undoubtedly, the worst early game faction, needing to build their innate synergy which comes through ascensions, signature items, and most important furniture.

However as time has gone on, many of the newer maulers such as Skriath, Safiya, and Tidus, along with old reworks like Vurk and Skreg have given maulers a prominent rise in the meta which has continued to rise as time goes on. Maulers are the simple and often neglected faction headed mostly by the old meta staple of Brutus. Play AFK Arena on PC/Mac to enjoy the game any time! I will discuss the issue of available copies at the end of the guide). Both of these heroes are what I’d call a starter’s trap.Īlthough Belinda and Lucius may seem very strong early, they quickly fall into lackluster applicability, both only being truly useful as niche supports at late and end game (This is NOT to say they cannot work, but they will take higher levels of investment for similar payoffs of other options. Outside of that, there are many more average heroes who perform adequately when invested in such as Estrilda, Hendrik, Fawkes, Oscar, Rigby.ĭo note that I have not mentioned Belinda nor Lucius among these top. Who many debate to be the best hero in the entire game, however beneath him are two very sufficient heroes of Gwyneth and Rosaline. Their strongest suit is undoubtedly the hero Rowan. Lightbearers are the dream for new players, with appealing heroes such as Belinda and Lucius who are extremely simple to use, and fodder flowing in due to the 4th rare hero Lightbearers have.
