Prepare your warriors—victory awaits!
Basic Controls & Mechanics
Valkyrie RPG uses a turn-based grid system. Each hero occupies a single tile and can move a set number of spaces per turn. Actions include moving, attacking, using a skill, or passing. The turn order is determined by each unit's Speed stat; higher speed means acting sooner. You can view the turn order at the top of the screen.
The battlefield is a square grid with obstacles like rocks or trees that block movement and line of sight. Some tiles provide defensive bonuses (e.g., grass reduces damage by 10%). Pay attention to elevation: high ground gives a 15% attack boost. Use the environment to your advantage.
Each hero has a class (Warrior, Mage, Healer, etc.) and a set of skills. Skills have cooldowns and consume SP (Skill Points). Basic attacks cost no SP and deal physical damage based on Attack. Skills can deal magic damage, heal, buff, debuff, or reposition enemies. Managing SP and cooldowns is key to victory.
Hero Roles & Team Composition
A balanced team typically includes a tank, damage dealer, healer, and support. Tanks (like shield-wielding Warriors) have high HP and Defense, and can taunt enemies to draw aggro. Damage dealers (e.g., Assassins or Mages) focus on dealing burst damage. Healers restore HP and remove debuffs. Supports provide buffs, debuffs, or utility like teleportation.
Synergy between heroes is crucial. For example, pairing a Mage who inflicts 'Frozen' with a Warrior who deals bonus damage to frozen enemies can devastate bosses. Some heroes have passive auras that boost adjacent allies' stats. Position your team so that auras overlap, but avoid clustering to prevent area-of-effect attacks.
As you progress, you'll unlock new heroes through story milestones or gacha pulls. Experiment with different combinations. Early game, a team of one tank, one healer, and two damage dealers is reliable. Later, you may need specialized setups for enemies with high magic defense or physical resistance.
Equipment & Upgrade System
Equipment includes weapons, armor, accessories, and relics. Each piece has a rarity (Common, Rare, Epic, Legendary) and level. Upgrading equipment requires gold and materials obtained from stages or the forge. Upgrading increases base stats and unlocks bonus effects at certain thresholds.
Weapons boost Attack or Magic Attack; armor boosts Defense or Magic Defense; accessories provide HP, Speed, or critical hit chance; relics grant unique passives (e.g., 'Heal 5% HP per turn'). Prioritize upgrading your main damage dealer's weapon and your tank's armor first.
Set bonuses: equipping two or more pieces from the same set (e.g., 'Dragon Scale Set') grants extra stats or effects. Mix and match sets to complement your strategy. For example, a healer might benefit from a set that increases healing output, while a damage dealer wants crit rate and damage.
Early Game Tips (Levels 1-10)
In the first few levels, you'll learn the basics. Focus on completing the tutorial missions—they reward you with free heroes and resources. Your starting team (a Warrior, Mage, and Healer) is solid. Use the Warrior to tank, Mage for damage, and Healer to keep everyone alive.
On Level 3, you encounter your first mini-boss: a giant golem. It has high defense but low magic resistance. Use your Mage's skills to deal heavy damage while the Warrior taunts. Keep the Healer at max range to avoid area attacks. Don't be afraid to use potions if your healer is overwhelmed.
By Level 5, you'll unlock the equipment upgrade system. Spend your early gold on upgrading your Warrior's armor to +3 and your Mage's weapon to +3. This will carry you through the next few levels. Also, complete daily quests for extra gold and materials.
Mid Game Strategies (Levels 11-20)
Around Level 11, you'll face enemies with debuffs (poison, stun). Bring a support hero who can cleanse debuffs. If you haven't already, invest in a hero with 'Dispel' or 'Purify' skill. Positioning becomes more important: spread your units to avoid chain stuns from enemy mages.
Level 15 introduces a map with multiple paths. Split your team to capture resource nodes (which give bonus stats) while still covering each other. Use a fast unit to scout ahead. The enemy AI often targets the closest unit, so you can bait them with a tank while your damage dealers flank.
For the boss at Level 18 (a necromancer), focus on killing the summoned skeletons first—they can overwhelm you. Use area-of-effect skills to clear them quickly. The necromancer itself is weak to fire damage. Save your ultimate skills for when the boss is at 50% HP, as it will gain a damage shield.
Advanced Tactics & Synergies
Learn to manipulate turn order. If a hero has low HP but acts soon, you might want to delay their turn by using a skill that doesn't attack (e.g., 'Defend') so that your healer can act first. Conversely, you can speed up a slow hero with a 'Haste' buff to get a crucial heal or attack in before the enemy.
Combos: some skills leave marks on enemies (e.g., 'Marked for Death'). Another hero's skill that hits marked targets deals bonus damage or applies stun. Plan your skill usage around these combos. For example, have your Assassin use 'Backstab' on a marked target for triple damage.
Environmental tactics: you can push enemies into hazards like spikes or lava using knockback skills. Some maps have destructible walls that can create chokepoints. Use your Warrior's 'Shield Bash' to knock an enemy into a pit for an instant kill (works on normal enemies, not bosses).
Boss Battle Guide: The Dark Dragon (Level 25)
This boss has two phases. Phase 1: The dragon breathes fire in a cone every 3 turns. Position your units behind the dragon (its tail) to avoid the cone. It also has a tail swipe that hits a line behind it. Keep your squishy units to the sides.
Phase 2 (below 40% HP): The dragon flies up and summons adds. Focus on killing the adds quickly—they heal the dragon if left alive. Use your healer's ultimate to keep the team topped up. The dragon's 'Fire Rain' targets random tiles; spread out to minimize damage.
Recommended team: 1 tank with fire resistance gear, 2 ranged damage dealers (preferably with water or ice skills), 1 healer, and 1 support with 'Revive'. Save revives for your damage dealers. Use the support's 'Barrier' skill to absorb the fire rain damage.
