Best garrison heroes
| Hero | Garrison value |
|---|---|
| Iris | Withering Bloom heals up to factor 15,000 and, awakened, cuts damage taken by 20%. Script of Runes dispels a debuff each round while garrisoned (or heals). Herbmastery raises healing received and Infirmary output. |
| Yi Sun-sin | Unbreakable Fortress stacks up to 20% damage reduction. Support Pillar adds rage while garrisoned and ATK below half HP. His Burst strips attackers' shields and buffs. |
| Rex | Divine Guardian shields for 3 rounds. Defensive Counterattack cuts attacker ATK by 20% and raises counter damage. Easy Reaping adds Berserker HP in garrisons. |
| Amaterasu | Holy Radiance cuts damage for her troop and up to 5 allied troops, so she is strong when allies reinforce you. |
Iris wall garrison
Garrison healer: large heals, debuff dispels while garrisoned and +11% HP / +13% DEF for an all-Beast Rider troop.
Pair: Iris / Yi Sun-sin / Rex. Skill order: Withering Bloom, Script of Runes, Herbmastery, Ward of Nature.
Strength: Keeps the Wall alive through long attacks. Weakness: Almost no damage of her own.
Iris's Ward of Nature only applies to an all-Beast Rider troop. In a mixed garrison, value her for healing and dispels.
What fails on the Wall
- Summoners (Wukong, Sylvan, Ganglot): summons don't fight in garrisons.
- Pure burst heroes with no sustain: they get worn down by repeated attacks.
Defence habits
- Keep Infirmary capacity above your garrison size, and heal right after every attack.
- Shield up during kill events if stronger players are active.
- Move troops out (gathering or reinforcing an ally) when a much stronger march is coming; rebuilding costs days.
- Relocate next to your tribe so reinforcements arrive fast.
