A guide for small to medium castles attacking in the MMORPG game, Lords Mobile. Originally written by me (Helen) for my guild, T’O, but think it’s a good guide to share with the rest of the world. Enjoy!
Doesn’t matter who you speak to, you’ll get 1001 opinions about what to forge and used for war gear. So we’ll keep it simple – make a solid mixed set first. The build on it for stronger bullets (single troop type attacks). Below we will list good mixed options for each gear slot and recommendations on how to jewel it.
MAIN HAND
- Frosting Wing Sword. If you’re in a solid guild who hunts monsters well and do Hell Events for monster chests, this is fairly easy to upgrade even if you’re f2p and better than the f2p Tomahawk even at Green.
HELMUT
Both are rough to upgrade if you’re f2p beyond blue, but no decent f2p alternative for the boosts you get in my opinion.
- Beast Helm. Boosts Infantry and Cavalry, with Army HP and Travel Speed boost
- Bumble Helm. Boosts Range and Cavalry, with Army HP.
CHEST
- Firewall Plate. A solid piece that gives Infantry and Cavalry troop attack boosts and Army HP.
- Armor of the Abyss. It’s a decent f2p piece and can be fairly easily made mythic but its only good boost is army attack of %5 at gold.
LEGS
- Dragons Talons. Handy Infantry and Range troop attack boosts with Army HP. The drops from chests are fairly decent and better than the single troop type legs like Untamed Boots or Gargantuan Belt.
- Storm Tasset. Expensive to upgrade but gives Infantry and Cavalry attack boosts and Army HP. The pearls you need to upgrade this has one of the lowest drop rates in the game.
OFF HAND
- Eternal Codex. Has Range and Cavalry Attack boosts
- Winter Mitts. Has Range Attack and Army HP boosts
- Dark Aegis. Has Infantry attack and Army attack boosts.
ACCESSORIES
MIXED OPTIONS
Can use one of each of these, 3 of 1 if they’re all a decent grade, depends on what you wish.
- Blight Ring. Range Attack and Army HP boosts
- Burning Scroll. Army Attack boosts
- Ambrose Cup. Infantry and Range Attack/HP boosts, expensive to upgrade as the Halo drops are low.
SINGLE TROOP TYPE OPTIONS
Build these to use to interchange with the above mixed options for “bullets”. Make 1 or 2 to a decent colour and mix with the above options as needed.
- Terror Vial. Infantry Attack and HP
- Fear Drums. Cavalry Attack and HP
JEWELING
For a solid mixed set, you need to jewel your war gear correctly. If you talk to rally leads, they have single troop type jewels in single troop type gear. That’s because they’re rally leads and hit stuff in a whole different league to f2p to mid level players/spenders.
Every piece in your choice of MIXED WAR gear should be jeweled with 1 x Infantry, Range and Cavalry jewel. See photo below. But also keep in mind, if you happen to have 1 gold (20% attack boost) Infantry jewel, you split that into 4 purples (12% attack boost each). As that is statistically stronger when you place 4 purples into 4 pieces of gear than 1 gold into 1 piece of gear.
Bullet accessories (and other pieces you may interchange for bullet sets down the road) should be jewelled like the photo below. I.e. If you have a Vial for Infantry bullet, it would be jewelled with 1 attack jewel and then Infantry monster jewels that give that troop type (the Terror and Trojan jewel).
