Equipment | Heroes Endless Legend Guide
Last update: 18 October 2016
While buying equipment, pay attention to two things - properties and purpose. A weapon that requires strategic resources not necessarily needs to be better than one which requires Dust only. Its properties may be more useful and it may add to the attributes that are more important to you. The only exception are the high-level items made of Mithrite and Hyperium, but most probably, you will gain access to them too late, for it to have any bearing on the game.
Pay attention to the properties of a weapon, or an armor and base on this, while selecting something for you. In the case of accessories, you need to remember about the division into the ones that are useful to the army and the ones useful for city management. Scrolls and books are good for governers, whereas rings and necklaces, and the rest, are useful to commanders. An item can be bought only once, but each hero can have a copy. So, if you have seven governers and good items for them, give one to each of them.
Items are different from each other, depending on the profession and the faction. You can try heroes out, before you hire them, thanks to which you will find out, if the items that you own are more useful to them or to the heroes, of your faction, that you already have. Pay attention to this, especially in the case of governers, because there is a wider variation in the items available to them.
Always try to buy the best equipment possible. A hero with high defense receives low damage and, armed with a good weapon, he is capable of defeating an enemy unit in one attack. In combination with high level, it is easy to create a character that can take on smaller armies, singlehandedly and, with back-up, they can take on the bigger ones. Especially that heroes are immortal and, in the case of a lost battle, they can be brought back to life with Dust. At the beginning, the cost is high, but most frequently, you will have no problems paying the amount.
