[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

[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.)

[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...

[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?

#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:

#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:

[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?

Many people want to get started in #DefiKingdoms, but have no idea how.

Start here: medium.com/@Samichpunch/i…

@Samichpunch will be your new best friend. Once you have an idea of what we're all doing,

1) Read docs.defikingdoms.com/learn/gameplay

2) Join #DFK's Discord

$JEWEL #GameFi #RPGs Image If you have some idea of how #DefiKingdoms works, but are still a bit lost, you probably need one or more of these resources (pinned to #herodiscussion channel in the #DFK Discord.)

The first is a chart of the hero classes, by tier (basic, advanced, elite, exalted) and land: Image

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."
