I hardly know where to begin...

So I'll begin here:

defikingdoms.medium.com/dfk-duel-pets-…

Because the #DFK devs just announced some amazing stuff. Pet egg prices are up, people are composing their 1/3/9-hero teams for #DFKDuel, and there is great joy throughout the land. Here's why...
I was excited about #DFKDuel before, but now I'm positively inebriated with anticipation.

"Duels can be fought in groups of 1, 3, or 9 Heroes, with varying levels of rewards for each tier. As you win matches, your score will increase and you will climb the ranks."

$JEWEL #DFK ImageImage
And #TheHatchening approaches!

Having preached for months on accumulating eggs to enhance hero utility in profession, crafting, and combat, I was thrilled with the devs' reveal of the egg incubation interface.

Yes, I'll take a 10x chance of a mythic pet, please.

$JEWEL #DFK ImageImage
We knew from @DefiKingdoms dev AMAs that pets would have a rarity system...

Now, it seems rarity influence both the chance of getting a combat or crafting bonus for the pet AND the size of each bonus.

People are going to go CRAZY for this.

$JEWEL #DFK #Pokemon #GameFi #RPGs Image
Here's an early example of one teased #DFK pet.

It appears this pet is "rare" (based on the blue diamond, matching that tier of #DefiKingdoms hero), that it enhances a hero's mining ability and/or efficiency (pickaxe), and that it helps with crafting of armor (?) and AGI (?)...
This clip, accompanying the latest @DefiKingdoms Medium post, appears to show a #mythicpet that has large (?) bonuses in gardening, crafting rope (?), and assisting its hero in finding eggs (?)

I anticipate a mad rush to hatch/acquire pets that fit heroes perfectly.

[1] Okay, time to resume this thread. But I'm just going to start over at [1]...

Incidentally, you can find these charts I'm using on the #DefiKingdoms Discord, or at @DFKStronghold's site:

dfkeggspert.com/infographics/

And class growth stats are posted at:

docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…
[2] Yesterday, I discussed how a higher class tier and a higher rarity level will increase a hero's stats, on average (and stats are probably the most important part of what makes for a "good" hero.)

But that difference among heroes becomes more pronounced as heroes LEVEL UP... Image
[3] To illustrate, let's start with an ABSURDLY good, UNFAIRLY AMAZING #DFK hero summoned by @Sovrezd yesterday. (I'll explain summoning later.)

The hero in question is a mythic dragoon, of which only 32 exist AT ALL, only 4 of which have an advanced subclass (here, ninja)... ImageImage

[7] Yes, the knight and the thief have higher growth in some stats than their closest advanced-class equivalents. And the #DFK devs have made clear that every class will be useful (and will likely have unique skills, as in #FinalFantasy and most #RPGs.)

Still, advanced > basic.
[8] One could say MUCH more on this topic -- and I will expand on it later, addressing the three new #Crystalvale classes -- but this has conveyed the broader point: higher-tier classes tend to be "better," in part because of stat growth (especially in key stats.)

$JEWEL #DFK
[9] But class tier is TOTALLY SEPARATE from another important variable: the RARITY of a #DefiKingdoms hero.

This is a common source of confusion among new players. One can encounter a common thief (basic class), a common sage (elite), a legendary paladin (advanced), and so on...

[1] Distinct from the question "What should I buy as my first #DefiKingdoms hero?" is another common question, "What makes a #DFK hero good?"

The answers overlap to a degree, as suggested by my earlier thread. But I'll try to answer the second question squarely now...

$JEWEL
[2] The short answer is "as many things on this list as one can find in a single #DFK hero for a decent price." That list INCLUDES higher/better:

-Class
-Rarity
-Level
-Stats for class/level
-#PerilousJourney survivor
-Summons (but LOW gen)
-Genes

I'll unpack each of these...
[3] First, class.

There are four tiers of classes in #DFK (for now.) The higher you go on the chart below, the stronger the stat build on the classes. (I'll get to #Crystalvale classes in a bit.)

This point is probably best illustrated by comparing charts of similar classes...

[1] In my thread on picking your first #DefiKingdoms hero, I noted that I often suggest certain foragers to new players.

Why foraging? What about fishing, gardening, or mining?

Well, fishing IS largely comparable to foraging. But the others are not. Let's discuss professions...
[2] The #DFK roadmap is long, and profession is just a "small piece of the puzzle" (to quote a @DefiKingdoms dev.) But profession quests are probably the first thing you'll do with your new hero.

You'll do them for at least two reasons: "loot" and "xp." What are these?

$JEWEL
[3] As this helpful @Samichpunch article explains, heroes have a "level," a "profession skill level," and an xp bar that reflects one's progress toward the next level.

This is a LEVEL 2 hero with a .5 score in gardening and 1371 xp toward level 3.

#PetEgg FOMO is real, as #BlueEggs surpass #YellowEggs in $JEWEL price for the first time (afaik, and I've been in #DFK since Mining started.)

As anyone who's read this VERY important, exciting update knows, blue and grey eggs will hatch first:

medium.com/defi-kingdoms-…

#Pokemon
Just as real is the rush on #GaiasTears, which are roughly 10x as expensive in $JEWEL as they were a few weeks ago -- presumably, on widespread speculation that they will be a key ingredient necessary to bump one's chances of hatching a #MythicPet and decreasing incubation time:
So how do you actually BUY these things?

Well, the first thing you have to do is create a #DefiKingdoms profile on defikingdoms.com, using your Metamask with an account configured for #Harmony:
docs.harmony.one/home/general/w…

Then go to Docks and use #Ramp to buy $ONE.

[1] Many new #DefiKingdoms players find it difficult to narrow down their choices to a single first hero, and to determine whether this or that hero is a good buy.

On the #DFK Discord, we've helped literally thousands of people buy their first hero.

Here are some useful tips:
[2] Start by setting a rough price cap for your first hero. It's almost impossible to determine whether X hero is right FOR YOU until you've done that, because heroes are like houses or cars: you can always get more if you spend more.

But roughly how high should the cap be?
[3] Your first #DFK hero purchase will probably not be your best strategic buy. You simply don't know enough yet to make the quick decision necessary to snap up the best deals.

So consider starting with a budget of 50 to 75 $JEWEL for your first hero, avoiding absolute floor...
