LOA2 - Turn Legendary Heroes Into Mythics

When the mythic heroes arrived on League of Angels 2, everybody raced out to get them. Players started concentrating of Moira, Pamela, and Rei. Meanwhile, the legendary heroes on their team were swept aside to give room to the 3 mythics. But GTArcade just released a new update to LOA2, and this will change the way players treat legendary heroes.

The new Hero Evolve system will enable players to evolve legendaries into mythics. Yes that's right, at Augment+11 above, players can now turn legendary angels into mythics. For this current update, only 3 legendaries can be evolved yet. They are Alecta, Theresa, and Aphrodite. But with this direction, it's pretty sure we can evolve the rest of the legendary heroes soon as well.

Post Evolution

• Legendary angels will turn into Mythics, gaining a new skill in the process. Their previous skills will be enhanced as well.
  
• After evolution, Legenday heroes will have a new stat called Evo level. This level will be equal to the heroes augment level less 11. So, if you evolve an augment+11 Alecta, you will get an Evo Level 0 Alecta.
  
• Mythic angels can also evolve, but they will remain as mythics after evolution. Their skills though will also be enhanced.
  
• Evolved legendary hero portrait graphics will have a bit of a change to differentiate it from it's non-evolved version.
  
• Succesive evolution will raise the hero's stat attributes and its special attributes.
  
• Hero Cores are needed to evolve a hero.
  
• Primal Crystals and Gold are needed to raise a hero's Evo Level.
  
• When angels are evolved, the Augment Level system will be replaced by Evo Level. Evo Level after evolving starts from previous Augment Level minus eleven (11).
  
• Legendary heroes will retain the stat bonuses from affinities even after evolution.

Legendary angel Aphrodite evolving into Mythic.

We will update this once we have more concrete info. But for now, players with Alecta, Theresa, and Aphrodite can begin enjoying this new Evolution System. Stay tuned!

LOA2 - F2P Undying Freeman Carry on a 3-Man Squad

Ok, so maybe "undying" is an exaggeration but Freeman is arguably the best Epic Angel in LOA2, better than Elaine in my opinion. Freeman will take you further than Elaine will ever will. What makes Freeman special is his ability to fully heal himself, and his tankiness. For a free to play player, he is one of the best options out there, especially if you don't want to waste diamonds on ritual tokens hoping to get a Lucas, Huxley, or a Lydia. Pair Freeman with a healer and you are set. In a 3-man team, any healer will do. The best though is Flora, so make sure you pick up all Flora shards on the Hero Shop and raid elite maps for her shards too. Below is a video of a 3-man squad concentrated on beefing up Freeman.



As you can see from the video, any other angel would have died on the 1st or 2nd round of that match. But not Freeman. Of course, you also need to make sure your main can dish out at least significant damage to supplement Freeman's low offense. Doing so will give your squad the capability to finish the opposing team. 45% of your resources should go to Freeman, 35% to your Main, and the rest to Flora. Keep Flora and your Main at the back to keep them away from damage (or if you are up against back row killers, shift them to the front and let Freeman stay at the back).

Trouble with this setup is your lack of firepower, that's why do not forget to increase your Main's attack stats. Your Main will be your killer, and Freeman will soak up all the damage the enemy throws your way. take note though that you will have great difficulty defeating AI teams with 2 healers or 1 healer and 2 tanks. Don't get frustrated though, you will get stronger and you can defeat them in time. Here's another video of Freeman tanking.



But Freeman won't last you forever, so save up your souls to buy mythic shards when they become available for you. By choosing Freeman, you won't be wasting souls to buy up Legendary angel shards. Freeman is cheap and very effective.

As a final note, it's a good idea to keep a leveled up Carl as backup to replace Flora when you face an AI team with healers. Carl will help with the killing. Freeman doesn't depend much on healers anyway, especially on normal and elite maps. I said replace not add, take note. If you want to stick to a 3-man squad, don't ever add a 4th hero because you can't ever remove him/her again.

So, let me know what you think in the comments. Also, do you think Elaine is better? If you do, post your arguments on the comments as well. Thanks!

LOA2 - Who is the Best Legendary Healer?

There are 3 Legendary healer angels in League of Angels 2; Thera (Celestial), Aishah (Tempest), and Flora (Midas). But which one is the best at what they do?

Thera

• Her ultimate heals everyone, healing individual teammates for 150% of her ATK stat.
• Her ultimate's heal is spread out as 4 hits succesively, meaning each of those hits can CRIT, which is a good thing since it takes 4 times for the game to determine if the heal will crit or not.
• Her normal heal is 200% of her ATK stat, which is decent, but it removes all debuffs from the target, which is great. Cooldown is 2 turns.
• Thera's passive skill gives 10% more DR to the entire team. Downside is that this buff only last 2-4 turns. Good for short fights, useless in long fights.
• Stats wise, she has the best defensive stats. Thera is good in front mid or top, right in the line of fire since stat-wise since the more damage she gets, the more rage, and more ultimate heals.

Aishah

• Her ultimate has the best healing over time since her heals grow stronger after each turn. Heals come in a single hit so when the heal CRIT's, it is usually for a big amount.
• Her normal skill heals 3 targets for 80% of her ATK individually. Also raises the target's DR by 10%.
• Aishah's attacks steal rage from her target, meaning in one on one situations, Aishah's opponent will never be able to use an ultimate skill.
• Has average defensive stats, good for the front bottom spot away from the enemy's main DPS since her heals need some time to really shine.

Flora

• Her ultimate heals 2 teammates with amazing amount, and it also adds ATK.
• Her normal skill heals 1 teammate and it gives rage. She doesn't attack, she just heals.
• Flora's passive is arguably the best among the healers because it gives everyone 250 rage per turn, meaning more ultimates for the entire team.
• She has the worst defensive stats, but the best offensive stats, meaning she takes more damage but she heals significantly more too.
• Best for a 3-man squad since her ultimate is limited to only 2 targets. Bad when team is against an AOE opponent.

There you go, an analysis of the legendary healers. Got something to add, share in the comments below. Thanks!!!

LOA2 - How to Set Up a 1-Man Squad

I'm sure you guys noticed that proliferation of 1-man squads, or teams comprised only of the main character, in League of Angels II, especially on the new servers. A lot of people have asked me how to do it. So, not wanting to disappoint, I made a youtube video about how to set one up.

Please note though that the process of creating a 1-man squad is considered cheating. Why? Because of the use of a 3rd party software, in this case it is Cheat Engine. I haven't read the terms and conditions of the game yet, I mean who does, right? But frankly, I'm quite sure the phrase "use of 3rd party software is illegal" is in there somewhere, as this is a common rule in games. However, I haven't heard of someone banned yet even after numerous reports from other players that so and so player is using a 1-man team in League of Angels 2. So, do the process of creating a 1-man team at your own risk, ok? Don't say I didn't warn you.



Why are 1-man squads so popular anyway? Well, they have several advantages, all from the fact that having just a single hero, all resources will be allocated to it and no one else. One is that they perform well in normal and elite maps, easily getting 3-stars everytime because their main character is so beefed up it can beat the map single-handed and since there are no other angels in the team, nobody dies hence the 3-stars. Same goes in Abyss Dungeon, and also the Anima map. Single hero, no weakness, guaranteed 3 stars.

Another advantage is in arena and xserver and in any PVP situations where the character levels are the same or with only a few level difference. They can beat other players with significantly higher BR than them. Why? Because BR is calculated as the total BR's of all heroes in the team and a 1-man team, having only 1 hero has low BR as expected. However, if you check the individual BR's of the heroes in a team, you will notice that the BR of the 1 hero in a 1-man squad is higher compared to the individual BR of any hero in a 5-man or a 3-man team.

Can you think of more advantages of a 1-man team? Please mention it in the comments below. Also, if you know of some disadvantages, feel free to comment as well.

Video - How to Set Up a 3-Man Team/Squad

Hi! Lots of people are still asking how to set up a 3-man squad. Here's a video tutorial I made. Check it out.

Result of Poll: Who's better, Huxley, Lucas, or Aurora

Hi and thank you so much for participating in the poll "Who's your favorite Angel?" The results are in and here is what you dear readers think.

FIRST PLACE - Lucas.
Looks like Lucas is a heavy favorite. What's not to like after all? His crits are amazing, his special attack hits 2 heroes, and he can come back from the dead to fight again. A must for Tempest teams.

SECOND PLACE - Aurora.
The lovely Aurora comes in second. In the early days of LOA2, Midas teams are thought of as weak compared to Tempest and Celestial, but according to this poll, that is no longer the case.

THIRD PLACE - Huxley
Wow, Hux came in third. This is surprising considering that Hux is one of the favorites when LOA2 came out. Guess things have changed since then.

There you go, the result of our first poll. A new poll is up, please check the right sidebar. Vote your favorite now!!!

LOA2 What Runes Are and How To Use Them

Hi and sorry for the long hiatus. I'm back with more useful info on League of Angels II. Today, I will be discussing runes and their uses.

Types of Runes

1. ATK Rune - This increases your hero's attack damage, and that covers both it's normal attack and it's special attack.

2. HP Runes - This rune will increase your hero's health pool (HP). The more HP it has, the more damage it can take.

3. DEF Runes - Increases a hero's resistance to attack. This means that DEF will absorb some of the attack damage that it receives during battle.

4. AGI Runes - The more agility your hero has, the faster it can attack before other heroes. In battle, the hero with the highest agility attacks first, and this affects both normal and special attack.

5. END Runes - Endurance runes. This rune reduces the chance that your hero will receive a critical hit. The more END a hero has, the less chance it has from receiving a critical hit.

6. DODGE Runes - Dodge runes helps a hero avoid all attack damage by dodging the hit. A hero with high dodge will have a high chance of dodging attacks.

7. CRIT Runes - Increases the chance that your hero's attack is a critical one. Critical attacks hit harder than normal.

8. HIT Runes - This rune determines your hero's chances of hitting a target when it attacks. The higher the HIT value, the less likely that it will miss during attacks.

Runes can be socketed to Relics, and it will increase your hero's stats depending on which rune is used. Runes with the same type and level can also be synthed, or combined, to create a same rune but one level higher than the levels of the runes used in the synthing. Max Rune level is seven (7).

Tune in next post as I will be discussing about the best runes to equip to certain heroes in the game. Ciao!!!
