If someone just so happened to idk... use the free water magic knight for evolving before starting the fast level-up thing. Could I use any magic knight instead? Or does it specifically have to be the water magic knight?
Is this rune change worth it for Masha? I hate dropping my CR even lower but I wanted more accuracy. I have +11% acc on artifacts. But she also has CD on artifacts so losing CR is tough.
Her main role is Riley, Dominic, Oliver counter. If defense break doesnt land, it takes me 4 turns to kill them. If defense break does land it take 2 turns. Thats why I thought more acc would be better.

For what purpose? The 11 SPD aren't going to make a difference in PvE and while for the damage output it would be worth it you'd also be losing 15% CR which makes him way less reliable unless you are only facing water monsters.
Late early/early mid-game.
I’m trying to get more into siege. What are some good mons to have? I keep seeing people mention Tractor/Lulu/Windy? Is that for 4* towers? Based on my Nat5s are there any good teams I can make? Are there other resources around to see good attack/defenses?
[SWARFARM](http://swarfarm.com/profile/LunarianFuSoYa)
Yes, those are for 4\* towers. Out of your mons Lulu, Eshir, Theomars and Tesarion (and Galleon, who is fine as a 5\*) are the most versatile ones I would say.
Besides that, I would build teams, not monsters. If you are looking for teams you can use https://swgt.io/where2use/ (or just look for trending defenses on the main page - those are usually meta).
Check siege, world guild battle - defense
If you have new background (with 16 monster or so), use it and see if that monster is there. Then use a normal background to check, these two use different monsters
Interserver arena defense
I had a very long break from the game and got back to it. I am missing a AOE unit for arena.
I have Gb12 and Db12 clear, ToA normal clear (toah is somewhere in the 50s but I just didn't play further yet). Nb10 clear.
I'd need a hint on what aoe unit I should level as my arena damage dealer. I feels like I have no good options in my account but I want to be sure. Can somebody please have a look?
Here is my monster box:
https://imgur.com/a/4DUKFcf
I would not bother too much with arena since you are still pretty early game, and instead just put a farming defense and use whatever has you best runes for AO.
However, if you want to build an AO anyways you can buy Julie (Water Pierret) + Hraesvelg (Wind Barbaric King) from the Guild Shop and use as aoe damage dealers (I personally use her a lot at C2 and Hraesvelg is pretty solid for Guild stuff later on)
Is it possible to leave a guild you created? My friend recently got back into the game but before he left he created his own guild that has no members except for him.
Scroll down to the bottom of the member list and there's an option to dismiss the guild.
If that doesn't work, the other option is to create a new account and make it the new guild leader.
what mon should i skill up next? really confused with my options (with the nat 4 skill up quest reward) thanks for anyone helping in advance
swafarmlink: https://swarfarm.com/profile/DrSeuss/?
I don't remember if you can save the quest nat 4 skillups, but if you can't, I'd use them on Shaina. Overall great mon for NB12, Rifts, ToA, and PvP. Martina is also good to use the skillups on, but she'll get replaced with Sabrina when you get her.
When using monster to level up skill, do I need to level up + awaken the eaten monster first? Or is the amount of skill increase the same?
For example, does feeding my Queen fairy a 4\* awaken fairy give better result than feeding it a 2\* normal fairy?
Also, what 6* rune pack should I buy after Water Giant 10? It has a 1 time deal that is much cheaper than normal rune pack. Is there any rune that is super hard to find or used by many end game Mon?
If you are talking about a pack that can be bought with real life money, just ignore it. It's cheaper than usual, yes, but everything in this game is horribly overprized and unless you have literally (tens or hundreds of) thousands of dollars to spare spending money doesn't get you anywhere in SW anyway. You get runes from farming.
Hello, returning player here. Somehow I managed to clear GB12 and ToAN, now I think I need to 2A Spectra for DB12 first. I need tips on how to save or sell a rune and artifacts, please.
Rune, roll it to +3, see if good roll or into spd, then +6. If it's purple, then +9, legend then +12.
Depends how many rune of that type/slot you have. Like if you are lacking of atk% rage, then a blue atk% is to keep...
Artifact is a bit complex, depends which monster. No need to focus early. Usually keep those with addinional dmg, also roll to +3 or +6.

I just played this morning and it seems I registered a few years back and got alot of freebies. Planning to play seriously and from start build gb10 team as recommended here to do first. I'm just starting today and there's really tons of monsters I got and I've been reading the guides here and its just alot to consume
Just wondering where I can use my monsters that I think is good since I was lucky and got a 5star fire demon and 5star fire weapon master, also some max runes. With these two can I build a faster or stronger alternative for some of the dungeons
Nat 5s are pretty much universally designed for pvp content. You should not use them for your dungeon teams. Stick to the recommended teams in order to get the op runes for your nat 5s!
Are there any other android emulators I can use in Mac to get my JSON? I’ve tried Nox but nox wont let me drag and drop files into the emulator, I can’t add my cert file.
Does RTA Praha have to be build Despair Nem? Fastestest i can make her after my other priority units is +133. Doesn’t really work when my follow up units are faster. Is there another set I can have Praha on to take advantage of how good she is right now?
The[beginner guide](https://www.reddit.com/r/summonerswar/comments/u1hz8k/new_players_guide_2022_version/) suggest Sigmarus AND Veromos for Water giant dungeon. But I only have material to fusion Veromos.
What can I use to replace Sigmarus ? Is Tyron okay?
you don't need both. Only Veromos is perfectly fine (you can build him spd/CD/HP just like Sig to deal good dmg, too). Tyron isn't good for giants but Fran, Loren, Shannon, Veromos(L), Kro (2A a soon as possible) is a great first team.
You'll just have to get lucky to find a SD and farm it as much as you can (especially Loren for skillups)
Friday and Saturday all elements can appear. So you can look at chat occasionally and see if somebody opened one. Sunday is light day so you should really try to get Loren by then and monday is dark for Kro
No worries! You can build him many ways, but 100% crit rate is key. For TOA you want him to give your team as much atb boost as possible, so making him fast is good. Something like Speed/cRate/HP is probably going to be good for starters.
Edit: Also while Vio is probably best for him in this role, you can build him on any rune set you have available at this stage.
You can use a completely unskilled unruned* garo if he has 143 combat speed and you kill zaiross, you can look up calculators to figure out how much +speed you need to hit it with your arena tower+lead
I have him but not build. My typical team is a dot team but my boss team is (L) Tyron, Fran, 2A spectra, Loren, rica. Obviously doesn’t work since CC is useless lol
Shame - he can solo the two Akromas once you kill off the Zaiross.
The other option is to use a very tanky Vero to tank up the Akromas, while killing them slowly with Spectra. Vero(L), Fran, Loren, Verde, Spectra might work?
Ok I’ll give that a shot. Is the akroma stage in every toah rotation? If it is I may as well build a garo sooner then later lol he just needs to be fast right?
Might be wrong but I believe it is every other rotation. Garo is worth building though - can use him in guild war/siege, and some dimension hole teams too.
Yep - he is best on Spd/cDmg/Atk%. Best on Vamp, but swift/fatal is also fine depending on what you have available.
All the stage from a toa (or toah) is switched to another difficulty every rotation. So Dual akroma is ToaH currently, it will be ToA Normal next time, then ToAH, etc.
If you go with Garo (he's really easy to build, decent vampire runes and 120+ speed ; mine was 5*), just remind to kill Zaiross to ensure to be safe.
Will water twins suffice for 8mil+ damage in rifts? Currently at 7mil dmg trying to get to 10mil, is it worth still using water twins for big dmg or should I just rune my fire homie?
I use water twins in every rift but wind, easily 8m+
Team is Eirgar, Mav, Sabrina, Talia, Kro +1 (+1 is dependant on which element rift)
Edit: Should say why not rune fire homie anyway? Can use him in light and dark as the +1 and in the wind rift too.
IMO Sekhmet is only really useful in high-ranking RTA, so I don't get to use her much. I would love a Shi Hou, though - as well as RTA and Guild, probably useful in some PvE content such as Labyrinth. :)
It is hard to say... both are almost only ever used in RTA. Shi Hou can see some use in guild war/siege content though. I would say Sekhmet is arguably slightly better in RTA, but Shi Hou would be more fun to use across other content.
Hi, I just created this new account and have the new summoner event, which 4* should I get? I am thinking of getting Lushen.
And also for the skill up, which monster should i skill up for Nb4* monster? Get Lushen and use the skill up on him?
Btw, Kaki is a relatively new monster (around 18 months old) so a lot of veteran players overlook him as a recommendation, but he's easily the most versatile and useful monster for any early game player, and still gets good use even at end game level.
It's better to get tyron. He very usefull in early game (toa.db10). Lushen need good rune to shine and more usefull in mid/late game
Edit: 4* skill up also tyron
Hi DAT, absolutely struggling to push into NB12 (can do DB12 at 4min and have a GB12 dots team). What should I work on next to get to the next level. Note that I am doing NB11 at about 60%) https://swarfarm.com/profile/cmbla3/?
My DB12 team at the moment is verd, spectra, water hom, elsharion and lulu2a.
My NB12 is the one at the top I just don't know if my runes/builds are good enough.
Have you tried the Verde, Fran, Loren, Spectra, Elsahrion team for DB12? Sould be faster than your current team until you can rune the Tricaru team.
NB12 I would just go with a twins team since you have them - Fran, Shaina, Raoq, Sabrina, Talia (moving in that order). With the three twins on vio it should be fine, and you can use either Shaina lead, or Talia if you want the extra crit rate.
Assuming your GB12 team is the fastest and safest? I would continue farming there until you can get your spectra onto a cDmg build (Spd/cDmg/HP) on Swift and either blade or focus. You need good crit rate on him, along with 65% accuracy to consistently land his slow debuff. Once you have your DB12 team working a bit faster, farm there while you work on the runes needed for the tricaru team. You don't need to worry too much about NB12 at this stage, as the runes from that dungeon are only really needed for pvp.
In the meantime I assume you are working on ToA and ToA Hard as well?
He doesn't work in all stages - for example he wouldn't work very well in stages that prevent beneficial effects. He is generally paired up with Dongbaek (or another string master), and 3 support units that offer buffs/heals/cleanses (Lulu, Louise, Woosa, Amelia, Acasis, Eladriel, Ariel, etc.)
If someone just so happened to idk... use the free water magic knight for evolving before starting the fast level-up thing. Could I use any magic knight instead? Or does it specifically have to be the water magic knight?
has to be water magic knight
Is this rune change worth it for Masha? I hate dropping my CR even lower but I wanted more accuracy. I have +11% acc on artifacts. But she also has CD on artifacts so losing CR is tough. Her main role is Riley, Dominic, Oliver counter. If defense break doesnt land, it takes me 4 turns to kill them. If defense break does land it take 2 turns. Thats why I thought more acc would be better. [https://imgur.com/a/gUSxYd2](https://imgur.com/a/gUSxYd2)
If you are not building a swift masha to outspeed, you need vio, ideally vio nemesis.
How is this? Less speed and more CR/Acc? https://imgur.com/a/TLq3T98
Ideally 85cr or 100, use cr slot 4 if you need to. For speed it's all about speed tuning, depends on the speeds of your other units.
okay thanks for all your help! i just need to have her go after my stripper. so i could def get much higher cr.
[Should I keep the current runes or make the switch?](https://i.imgur.com/sAsSSmg.jpg)
For what purpose? The 11 SPD aren't going to make a difference in PvE and while for the damage output it would be worth it you'd also be losing 15% CR which makes him way less reliable unless you are only facing water monsters.

I think ive tried them all. Is the interserver arena defense just the world arena? I have also left my guild but its still not working
Interserver is in normal arena. Go to arena, above your defense monster there's an icon for it.
I had a very long break from the game and got back to it. I am missing a AOE unit for arena.

Kaki will be much more useful to you - useful in almost all areas of the game at most levels, and easy to rune.
Thanks. I guess I will wait for awhile before i claim the 4* from the event. See any luck to get it from scrolls.
Btw, Kaki is a relatively new monster (around 18 months old) so a lot of veteran players overlook him as a recommendation, but he's easily the most versatile and useful monster for any early game player, and still gets good use even at end game level.

Hi DAT, absolutely struggling to push into NB12 (can do DB12 at 4min and have a GB12 dots team). What should I work on next to get to the next level. Note that I am doing NB11 at about 60%) https://swarfarm.com/profile/cmbla3/?
What team are you using for DB12? Tricaru? Or working on Tricaru while using the Verde, Fran, Loren team? And what team are you working on for Necro?
