Starting Tip

Focus on learning the map locations first. Knowing where the summoning banner and dungeon entrances are located saves significant time early on.

To get stronger, you must summon heroes from the banner. You can build a team of up to four heroes. These characters help you clear stages and progress. The better your team composition, the easier it becomes to tackle difficult content. Dungeons are the primary way to progress, get rewards, and strengthen your team.

Class Selection Strategy

There really is not a wrong choice when picking a class. Your best bet is to choose whatever fits your personal play style. You might prefer being in the middle of the action or hanging back to deal damage from a distance. Pick the one you enjoy playing most for the best results.

Warrior

  • Frontline combat
  • High health pool
  • Melee damage focus

Mage

  • Ranged attacks
  • High burst damage
  • Area of effect spells

Tank

  • High defense
  • Team protection
  • Draws enemy aggro
Warning

Do not stress about picking the "meta" class immediately. Since all classes are viable, enjoyment of the playstyle is more important than raw power potential early on.

When upgrading heroes, remember their max level is tied to your player level. You need hero shards to level them up, which you can farm from dungeons. If you manage to pull mythic heroes, you can evolve them for a massive power boost. You must grind trials to get the specific evolution items required for this process.

Dungeon Grinding Guide

Dungeons are where you will spend the majority of your time. They drop almost everything you need, including coins, gems, trait rerolls, swords, armor, and skills. If you are wondering what to grind, the answer is always dungeons.

1

Enter Dungeon

Select a dungeon that matches your current power level to ensure efficient clears without wasting time on wipes.

2

Clear Enemies

Use your team's skills to defeat waves of enemies. Focus on surviving to reach the end for maximum rewards.

3

Loot Rewards

Collect all dropped coins, materials, and gear. Check if any items are immediate upgrades for your current loadout.

4

Upgrade Gear

Visit the reforge NPC to enhance your swords and armor using the materials obtained from the dungeon run.

Drop Rates

Higher difficulty dungeons have better drop rates for rare items like trait rerolls and mythic gear. Balance difficulty with clear speed for efficiency.

Swords and armor are crucial items mainly obtained from dungeons. Always equip the best gear available for your specific build. You can make gear even stronger by upgrading it at the reforge NPC. This step is essential for keeping up with the difficulty scaling in later stages.

Optimization and Evolution

Min-maxing your team involves rerolling your hero stats. If a character ends up with bad stats, you are not stuck with them forever. You can reroll until you get a setup that suits your build. This is a game-changer for optimizing performance in harder dungeons.

Pro Strategy

Save your trait rerolls for high-rarity heroes like Mythics. Using them on low-level common units is generally a waste of valuable resources.

To evolve mythic heroes, you must grind trials. This is the only location where evolution items drop. This process provides a massive power boost and is necessary for tackling the most challenging content in the game. Ensure your team is maxed out before attempting difficult trial stages.

FAQ

Q: What is the best way to spend gems in Anime Dungeons?

You should prioritize spending gems on the hero summoning banner. Building a team of high-rarity heroes is the most effective way to increase your overall power and clear difficult content faster.

Q: How do I evolve my heroes?

You can only evolve mythic heroes. To do this, you must farm specific evolution items that drop exclusively in trials. Make sure your hero is at max level before attempting evolution.

Q: Can I change my class later in the game?

The guide suggests sticking with the class you enjoy most. While there really is not a wrong choice, you typically stick to your initial selection, so choose a playstyle you prefer.

Q: Where can I find trait rerolls?

Trait rerolls are dropped as items in dungeons. They are essential for min-maxing your heroes' stats. Run dungeons repeatedly to farm these items.
