Upgrade Strategy
Saul sits in D Tier — founding roster: early-game progression only — do not spend current-era shards here. Legendary heroes are the core of every march — but only when matched to your kingdom generation.
- Star priority: unlock at 10 shards, then push stars while each tier still costs under ~100 shards; slow down at 4★–5★ and keep this hero matched to your current-era roster.
- Skill order: level the damage skill first, then the survival skill — check the upgrade tables above and feed whichever skill scales hardest per level.
- Class fit: Archers deal sustained ranged damage but fold under cavalry pressure — watch troop matchups before blaming the hero.
- Stop signal: Do not invest current-era shards here at all. Use the hero only if you have spare shards lying around.
Fully starring any hero takes 1,065 shards (+10 to unlock). That is months of event income — spend it where the tier list says it compounds, not on older-generation carries.
