Just found your channel and couldn't be happier, finally a creator that works with F2P and minimal spenders. I enjoy other creators like Ash, Hell Hades, YST and others but with my 11 legendaries I can't relate to most of their videos.
Thanks! I felt the same way for a long time. I enjoy a lot of the RAID CCs, and I've learned a lot from them, but I've never felt like they can fully relate to or understand what it means to live the F2P life. I'm glad you're enjoying the content. 👍
Great tips on Coldheart ... lots people build with a lot of ATK .... need to keep her alive
Great videos, clear and to the point. Good luck with growing your channel. I will be following along with you.
Hope you are fully recovered from Covid now 👍
Thank you, @kateofthedead5302! I am not 100% just yet, but I'm much improved. Feeling strong enough to keep pumping out videos at the very least, although I'll be happy when my voice returns to normal. It's still a bit scratchy. Glad you're enjoying the videos!
Coldheart, Kael, Athel, Apothecary, Warmaiden, Reliquary Tender, Soulbond, Painkeeper, Bellower, Elhain (only if starter). If you are wondering where Galek is, I would say to 6* warmaiden instead. And that's before you get to the ones you would use in niche situations (some much less niche than others). Possibly swap Reliquary for one of (Paragon, Graybeard, Marked, Renegade, Muckstalker)
These are some more for niche situations: Paragon, Fellhound, Heiress, Bogwalker, Muckstalker, Veteran, Coffin Smasher, Renegade, Frozen Banshee, Graybeard, Marked,
And that's before faction wars, which may result in pretty much anyone becoming six star, and is so custom to player that going into it would be stupid (I don't count faction wars when saying a "who to six star")
I can respect that list @zoeevans543. Lots of good rares in there. As I mentioned in the video, I think each account will have different needs and therefore can consider different rares to take to 6-star. The 10 I mentioned are the only 10 I think every account should 6-star at some point. Although I do think Reliquary Tender, Treeshield Knott, Warmaiden, and a few others you mention occupy a tier of rares I think of as "probable 6-star" champs. Again, it just depends on what champs you've pulled and what holes you're trying to fill in your roster. Thanks for the comment! I always enjoy a good champion debate!! 🫡
Hey Colred, just found your channel and like the content. Been playing 2.5 years now and love the game. Probably a medium/average spender. I spend when I want cuz I can, definitely not FTP but I’m no whale either. I always enjoy new & interesting content that’ll help me to progress. Thanks man!
Thank you @nonamenoone1484. I know I'm F2P, but I make no stands about it. My philosophy is simple: people should game the way they want. As long as you spend your gaming dollar in a healthy way for your lifestyle, then great! Game devs gotta eat, and no game survives without its spenders. The reason I usually go F2P is because I find it to be a fun challenge. I WILL spend on cosmetics and such that don't affect game play so that I can support the games I enjoy monetarily without altering my F2P status. Anyway, glad to have you here!
Great content. Good focus and no funnyclips. Subscribed. Good luck!
@opl8907 Thank you! But you don't like funny clips at all? Or is it that you just prefer that funny content not interrupt a serious video? If I did separate short videos that were humorous in nature, how would you feel about that? Just curious.
just dont like interruptions all the time. Nothing wrong with humorous content. Getting old i guess..
I gotcha. Thanks for the insight! 👍
There are a few more that I like at level 50: Castigator, reliquary tender, Gnarlhorn and Abyssal.
New subscriber here! Love your video!
Thank you @yooneunhyesarang9245! Great to have you on board!
Great video!
Honorable mention: Reliquary Tender. I pulled her week one and she carried my teams for a long time. She was my ATK down and cleanser up to Brutal CB and clutch to 3 star High Elf facion wars.
Absolutely! I actually mentioned RT in the very next video about Faction Wars rares (czcams.com/video/PT-fTsixDm4/video.html). I wouldn't put RT in the top 10, but she's definitely a top 15 rare in RAID.
Coldheart is a legendary in disguise!
@paulthomas1480 speaks the truth.
So glad you are doing these as a F2P/Low Spender player and don't have a huge kraken account. It gives a completely different point of view (I am a low spender myself, and other content creators make me want to spend more money, even on their F2P accounts).
Also, would you mind doing a video on your setup? What program are you using to record this with the screen in the background, what do you do for your editing, etc? That is something that has always fascinated me.
Hey @PatrickBurdine, I'm glad I can help out. I think an extra challenge to being a F2P player or low-spender (as if we needed another one) is exactly what you're saying: watching content creators can make you feel pessimistic about your roster of champions, your gear, etc. because the comparison is so drastic. It does make you want to spend (or spend more). My message to players is not that you shouldn't spend, but that you don't have to spend in order to succeed at this game. Being F2P or a low spender requires more patience, more creative problem solving, and more discipline, but it's entirely possible to do, and it can even be more emotionally rewarding if you earn your progress with hard work rather than your wallet. The F2P life isn't for everyone - and I don't think it should be - but it can still be competitive, successful, and really fun!
Lot's of good advice in this video for us FTP players. Personally I have 6* most of the usual suspects on my main account: Galek (starter), Apothecary, Bellower, Pain Keeper, Renegade, Coldheart. I have also 6* a few for specific areas: Frozen Banshee (clanboss), Muckstalker (Sand Devil), Heiress (clanboss), Metalshaper (Scarab). And I 6*some just for fun: Kurzad Deepheart, Candleguard. Have had some great fun using Candleguard to solo stages in Doomtower, her two aoe's hit surprisingly hard.
This is why I always say, "Game the way you want to game." I would never think about Candleguard, and here you are having a blast with a champion I never looked twice at. Good for you! And thanks for the story. I'm going to go look at Candleguard's kit now. I still won't build her, but I'll look at her. :P
@@ColredPlaysRSL I think Stage 35 on Nomal Doomtower was the highest stage she could solo, could probably do more with a regen/resist build. and she duo'ed Eternal Dragon Floor 40 with Bellower 🙂
Having a dozen of the rare at 6-60 .. i can say renegade and coldheart are the only ones id focus on for very long term . Everything else will eventually vaulted or have very niche use .
But its all based on where you are and what you have currently .. but to me , only those 2 are still being used often enough .
@chrispellbois6498 That is a valid position, but my RAID experiences have made me think differently. These ten rare champions were mostly vault guards a year into the game, but came back out 5-6 months later and are now getting more usage for me than ever before (with the exception of my starter Elhain, obviously). I think Painkeeper is the biggest surprise. CD reduction can be incredibly valuable in so many places that I'm actually building multiple copies of her at this point.
Later on you're certainly going to want more for Doom Tower Rooms IMO - but yeah solid call outs.
@poisty21 I agree on DT. I'm still working out my best rares for some of those rooms myself. Thanks for the comment!
@@ColredPlaysRSL Yeah; Pays to look at what you actually need first; then think about it.
As far as Rare only rooms you need to cover;
Rare Void, Spirit, Magic, HP, Atk
-----------------------
Besides the rares you've already mentioned some standouts to cover these are a Decrease Def to just make things a lot faster/easier.
See Warmaiden (Best rare for the job, but force atk), Fleshmonger (magic atk), Dagger(Void Atk), Raider (small version but best Spirit option if you want to go there).
And particularly for Hard tower;; CC or AoE plenty for stun sets.
**Soulbound Bowyer** (or even more than one) is a very popular choice which covers Spirit/Atk with AoE A1.
GreyBeard is also a great one (HP).
There is the likes of GearGrinder, Sentinal etc too.
____________________
Plenty of people have more in-depth videos on the subject though, and note you don't necessarily need them all at 60.
@poisty21 Thanks for this post. YES on Soulbound. I've also got my Geargrinder going, and Warmaiden. I'm actually clearing about 2/3 of the rare Secret Rooms at this point. What I meant when I stated, "I'm still working out my best rares for some of those rooms myself" was that since I've got a whole bunch of rares at lvl 40 or 50 anyway, I'm trying to make do with what I've already got as much as possible. It's just my F2P mentality: get by with what you've got wherever you can, and only invest in a new rare when you have absolutely no other solution. Thanks for the follow up comment though. Excellent information for anyone following this thread.
I will add one thing , if u are completing your arbiter task and some other task some times they ask to ascend to 5star and also upgrade red, green , blue type champs to 6star so do keep that in account
@jyotiprakashnanda5653 That's an excellent tip. It's definitely a good idea to keep at least 1 champion of each affinity at 5-star ascended so you can just quickly pop those missions when they come along. Thanks for the comment!
Good vedio sir
@progamers7632 Thank you!
I actually made a team with Pain Keeper, Renegade, Bellower, and 2 Coldhearts for Doom Tower secret rooms.
@Thugzilla90 That sounds like a great team! In fact, it sounds similar to a team I run myself. I think I just run an Elhain in a stun set instead of the 2nd Coldheart.
@@ColredPlaysRSL I have Elhain, but she's mostly built for Arena. I would have to go through intense gear swap if I'm using her for PVE.
I use bellower evrywhere litteraly evrywhere and i have very good build ninja shemnath or other good legos nukers
NICE! Bellower is my FAVORITE rare! 👊
FYI, a critical heal adds 50% to the heal.I think there are three champs in the game with a crit heal.
Yes, good note. Thanks!
I left renegate at 5 star as she can die once she gets to the boss... although on FireKnight her reset accelerate MaxHp on Seer and Coldheart which might make me reconsider in the future
@Wolcik3000 Renegade can do much of her job at 5-stars, it's true. But she's also better at 6-stars - tankier and faster and more acc (she has a slow that can be useful).
@@ColredPlaysRSL she is not high priority, as i dont need her debuff and i cannot make seer any faster easly
I argue that there are many champs more valuable than Fellhound to 60, making a dedicated campaign farmer is great but for a VERY long time you don't need a super specialized one, and often other areas are easier to replace starter in. Also Saurus (uncommon) can do the job as well. And by the time you are looking for someone in that role it is possible you will have an AOE a1 epic or legendary who will also be great for other content. Bellower is amazing due to the CC and Stun set reasons as well (this making him great in dungeons and doom tower).
That's an interesting take. I agree that you CAN certainly wait on building a dedicated campaign farmer, and it won't cripple your account or anything. However, I do believe there is a lot of real life value in building a 6 or 7 second campaign farmer early on. Just doing my daily 7 campaign mission now takes me less than 90 seconds, whereas it used to take like 5 minutes. And if I want to grind out some xp on 12-3, I can drop 1000 energy in less than 15 minutes, whereas it used to take close to an hour. That's also helpful during Champion Training events. Plus, my new campaign farmer went right into my Faction Wars team. So, I think from a quality of life standpoint, Fellhound and Bellower can reduce your frustration with the game and increase your enjoyment, ON TOP of providing some measurable in-game value. When you choose to pull the trigger is up to you, of course, but I'd advocate for some time in your first twenty 6-stars. It just makes life easier. I appreciate the comment - Thanks, Zoe!!
@@ColredPlaysRSL Of course. For me I run a 7-13 second farm with my Big Un (I pulled him so still haven't built out a 6 second 100% because I can average like 9 seconds already). And I can see how that would make it less annoying. I was just thinking about resource optimization.
@zoeevans543 And now I'm understanding more where you're coming from. If you already have a farmer at 7-13 seconds, the improvement Fellhound/Bellower offers is a fraction of what I got when I built mine. I went from a 15-23 second farmer to a consistent 7 second farmer. That's just a huge difference in time investment and also the FEEL of campaign farming. As for optimization, I also like to look at the long-term, practicable picture. You're potentially correct (I'm not sure that you are, but I concede that your claim is certainly reasonable) that another 6-star instead may be optimal in the perfect situation, but I'm also an imperfect player. I sometimes waste resources because I run out of time or I lose focus. So if I can increase my personal efficiency through a move that might otherwise be viewed as a slightly inefficient use of resources, the question becomes - in the final balance of resources, did I come out ahead or behind? My gut feeling is that my Bellower was a good, efficient use of resources at the time. My best judgment is utterly certain that spending less time campaign farming allows me to better focus on more important tasks, and thus makes me a better player. I don't know that I can prove that empirically (without a whole lot of time and effort at least), but I feel confident enough to continue to recommend the same move to other players. That being said, I'm sure your advice would also probably work out for a fair portion of the RAID player population. Just another example of how RAID can be conquered in so many different ways. Sorry for the long-winded reply, but champion debates are just one of my favorite things. Thanks for the comments!
I started with Athel, but 6 starred Kael as soon as I got him because I didn’t have a good poisoner for clan boss.
Due to how hard it is to get books, could it be said that rares can be more valuable than epics and legos for free to players?
@pweddy1 Certain rares can be very valuable to certain rosters at specific times. It takes some experience to really see how to get the most out of rares. However, like you said, the rare books are more plentiful in the early game. So, the nice thing is, even if you build a 6-star rare that turns out to be a bit of a poor investment, the overall cost stays pretty low. And you'll always get value out of a 6-star rare in Faction Wars and DT secret rooms, so it will never be a total waste. The only rares that are really more valuable than epics or legos, even to F2P players, are the ones that are either straight-up OP, like Coldheart, super versatile utility champs, like Apothecary, or provide a really great solution for important content, like Heiress or Fellhound. There are probably fewer than a dozen rares like that, but there are another 20-30 that can provide good spot value from time to time. You certainly don't need to avoid developing good rares; I would just caution you against over-investing. You always want some chickens on hand for any key epic/lego pull you may get. Thanks for the question!
renegade early i got demytha and renegade and nobody else useful
but i found a 5:3 speed tune with high khatun, renegade, demytha, dps, and stun target for very budget unkillable cb team
It took me nearly 2 years to get my first Demytha. She's as good as a legendary. Seriously. And Renegade is an excellent rare, and YES, those two champions can form the core of an unkillable CB composition. The great thing about that speed tune is you can scale it up without a complete rebuild. I use Demytha and Renegade in my 100m+ 1-key UNM team. So congratulations - you just WON the 2x Void shard event too!
Fellhound has utility in fire knight, used him (for jokes) in fk 25. White dryad nia and godseeker aniri can reset a single target with their skill and revive respectively. The quad and triple hits on coldheart and renegade are great for fk
Another viewer pointed out the Fellhound FK utility as well, and that it very true. That oversight was actually due to a miscommunication with my editor (entirely my fault), but I didn't feel like it was a big enough omission to warrant a re-edit. As for Nia and Aniri, there are many more champions that can decrease the cooldowns of themselves or one target. My point from the video was that there are only 5 champions in the game that can decrease or reset cooldowns for their entire team (only 2 of which are rares): Kymar, Countess Lix, Yumeko, Painkeeper (rare), and Renegade (rare). Emic Trunkheart will actually be the sixth. Thanks for the comment!
@@ColredPlaysRSL early game I used this dumb rare runic warder for fk because I was looking for a solution, no fellhound at that time. got replaced by coldhearts later. I agree team reduction is often more useful but don’t discount these single target resets. If I pull a godseeker you bet I am going to pair her with ninja for sand devil and make a video about it on my own channel.
Heh, I'm not discounting other champions. The video was about rares and only rares that I recommend everyone build. 🫡
@@ColredPlaysRSL sometimes people leave these comments that aren’t entirely true. Like you said there are plenty more rares that have niche uses. The best example of a niche rare is corpulent cadaver.
8:08 ugh fire knight?
Also, system speed doesn't matter if you don't have the minimum speed of faster than 101 speed of Lord Shazar, 100 crit, and something like 200-230 crit damage, using either Def or atk boots.
I put coldheart in arena offense when those annoying healing groups are needed.
Good call on fire knight. Reflect damage skills can be highly useful there. So Fellhound is definitely viable as a FK champ. As for the speed issue, I was not covering builds in this video, so I was assuming viewers would do additional research on how to build these champions. But you're right, in order to get the 6 second clear, Fellhound needs to be built to go first each round and one-shot each wave.
Just 6 star your starter champ, besides that you should 6 star coldheart(s) and save your resources do not waist them 6 starring anyone else. Questionables are apothecary reliquary and painkeeper if u using painkeeper in cb... the rest do well enough at lvl 50 then 60.. definitely not close to 10 rares you should 6 star .. not 5 even
At one time I felt like you do @ondeathsedge7278. It seemed like CCs kept suggesting rares that I thought were a waste of resources. However, once I started completing Doom Tower Hard mode, I had to start using more rares to clear the secret rooms. I also started to find rares, like Renegade, that do certain jobs that very few other champions do. That made me reconsider how to use some of the rares I had already built, like Apothecary, and now I get more use out of him than I ever did before. So, while I respect your opinion, and everyone has to decide the best way to progress their own account, I stand behind my statement in the video. These 10 rares will generally yield the highest value among rares, and everyone will be able to find at least some good uses for them, regardless of the level of account. Hope that clarifies the issue a little. Thanks for the comment!
