• Bonuses of Champion items
  
• Bonuses of Artifacts
  
• Bonuses of Serums

Peculiarities of some combat types

Sector. When your own land makes you stronger

Experienced defenders know that besides bonuses from upgrades and items, they have a great advantage when they fight together in their own sectors.

Sector Defense Bonus empowers units of the account holder as well as all allied forces stationed in his/her sector. Don’t wonder if you suffer massive losses facing a wall of defensive troops in the sector with fully upgraded defensive structures and multiple decorative buildings.

Emitters. Know your contestant

Each Emitter grants an additional defence bonus to the whole garrison. Its value depends on the Emitter’s upgrade level. Attack of a 5 level Emitter will hardly seem a piece of cake unless you manage to recon which troops are defending it.

Clan HQ and its great bonuses

Many Clans invest much time and resources into the development of Training Programs of their HQ. This grants them a big advantage in the form of great bonuses to defensive and offensive stats of troops.

Bonuses you receive from Training Programs are limited by the level of your Clan HQ. The higher level HQ you attack, the higher is the chance to face the heavily-armed forces, which besides all other buffs, are also empowered by bonuses from Training Programs.

 

Tips and hints

Losses of your contestant in the battle report

If you lose a battle, you can see only those units which you managed to destroy. You cannot see all forces that were fighting against your army that time. If you press on the icon of some hostile unit, you will see its basic combat statistics.

Defense bonus and its impact on the warrior ethos

Every 100 points of the Defense Bonus grant 1% to the stats of the defensive troops stationed in the sector. For instance, if the battle takes place in the sector with 20.000 Defense Bonus, the strength of the defending side will be increased by 200%.

Сorrelation of forces on the battlefield

Battle outcome also depends on the composition of both armies. If Player 1 attacks with Battlecruiser and Player 2 defends with Interceptors, which are strong against Air Forces, Player's 1 losses will be significantly higher.
