Legend of Witch: Stamina, Summons, Gear & Friends Guide
This guide covers the four main progression paths in Legend of Witch: stamina management, summoning strategy, gear upgrades, and using duplicate friends. You’ll learn how to allocate resources efficiently, when to pull, what to upgrade first, and how to turn friend duplicates into power.
What You’ll Need
- An account with access to the main hub (unlocked after the tutorial)
- At least one friend added (for the duplicate friend system)
- Basic understanding of the game’s currency: gems, gold, and stamina
Step-by-Step
Stamina Management
- Know your cap and regen rate. Your stamina cap increases with account level. Base regen is 1 point per 6 minutes (10 per hour). Always spend stamina before it hits the cap to avoid wasting regen.
- Prioritize story stages first. Clear all available story stages on normal difficulty. They give account XP, gems, and unlock new features. Use stamina here until you hit a wall.
- Farm gear and upgrade materials. After the story wall, spend stamina on the highest gear dungeon you can clear. Gear is the biggest power jump early on. Aim for at least a full set of 3-star gear on your main DPS.
- Use stamina potions wisely. Save potions for double-drop events or when you’re about to level up (level-up refills stamina). Don’t use them on normal days unless you’re pushing a time-limited event.
- Join an active guild. Guilds often give stamina bonuses or a stamina shop. Check guild perks daily.
Summoning Strategy
- Save gems for rate-up banners. The standard banner has no rate-up. Wait for a banner featuring a hero you need. Rate-up banners typically have a 2x chance for the featured hero.
- Use single pulls vs. 10-pulls. Most banners guarantee a 4-star or better on a 10-pull. If you’re close to pity (usually 60-80 pulls), do singles. Otherwise, save for 10-pulls.
- Know the pity system. Most banners have a hard pity at 80 pulls. Track your count. Don’t pull on a banner if you can’t reach pity before it ends—pity carries over only on some banners, so check the info.
- Don’t summon for duplicates early. In the first two weeks, focus on getting a diverse roster. Duplicates give small stat boosts; new heroes give more team flexibility.
Gear Upgrades
- Equip gear on all slots. Even gray gear is better than nothing. Fill every slot on every hero you use.
- Upgrade gear in order. Upgrade your main DPS weapon first, then their boots (speed), then chest (defense). For tanks, upgrade armor and HP pieces first.
- Enhance to +6 minimum. Gear enhancement costs gold and enhances base stats. +6 is cheap and gives a big boost. +9 and +12 are expensive—do those only on 4-star or higher gear.
- Star-up gear only on 4-star+. Star-up increases the level cap and base stats. Use it on gear you’ll keep for a while. Don’t waste star-up materials on 3-star gear.
- Sell old gear. Sell 1-2 star gear for gold. You’ll need massive amounts of gold for enhancements.
Duplicate Friends
- Understand the duplicate friend system. When you get a duplicate of a hero you already own, you can convert it into “Friend Shards” or use it to increase the hero’s “Friend Level” (sometimes called Bond or Awakening).
- Check the hero’s friend skill. Each hero has a passive skill that activates at certain friend levels (e.g., +5% attack at level 2, +10% at level 3). This is the main reason to invest duplicates.
- Prioritize your main DPS. Use duplicates on your strongest hero first. The stat boost from friend levels is percentage-based, so it scales with your hero’s base stats.
- Don’t convert to shards unless you’re desperate. Shards can buy random hero pieces, but converting a duplicate gives far less value than the friend level boost. Only convert if you’re close to buying a specific hero from the shard shop.
- Set a friend as your representative. Your friends can use your representative hero in battle. A higher friend level makes your representative stronger, which helps your friends and earns you friend points.
Common Mistakes
- Wasting stamina on low-level dungeons. Always farm the highest stage you can clear. The drop rate difference is huge.
- Pulling on every banner. You’ll run out of gems and miss the good banners. Be selective.
- Enhancing gear evenly. Focus on one hero’s gear at a time. A +12 weapon on your DPS is better than +6 on everyone.
- Using duplicates on a hero you’ll replace. Don’t invest friend levels in a hero you’re going to bench. Save duplicates for your core team.
- Ignoring the friend point summon. You get friend points daily from friends. Use them on the friend summon—it gives gear and hero shards.
Tips
- Log in twice a day. Stamina fills up overnight. Log in morning and evening to spend it.
- Check the shop for stamina deals. Sometimes you can buy stamina with gold or gems at a discount. Only buy if it’s worth it.
- Use auto-battle for farming. Set up auto-battle for gear dungeons while you do something else.
- Join the game’s Discord or Reddit. You’ll find banner schedules and gear guides from other players.
- Keep a balanced team. Don’t just build DPS. You need a tank and a healer for harder content.
Troubleshooting
- Stamina runs out too fast. You’re probably farming stages that are too low. Move to the highest stage you can clear. Also, check if you have unclaimed stamina in your mailbox.
- Can’t beat a story stage. Go back and farm gear. Upgrade your heroes’ levels and skills. Also, try a different team composition—maybe you need a healer or a tank.
- Pity counter resets unexpectedly. Some banners have separate pity counters. Always read the banner details before pulling.
- Gear enhancement keeps failing. Enhancement success rate decreases at higher levels. Use enhancement stones (if available) to guarantee success, or wait for an enhancement rate-up event.
- Friend duplicates aren’t showing up. Make sure you’re looking at the “Friend” tab in the hero menu, not the “Summon” tab. The option to use duplicates is under “Friend Level” or “Bond”.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much stamina do I get per day?
You regenerate 240 stamina per day naturally (10 per hour). You also get bonus stamina from daily quests and mail, usually 100-200 more. So expect around 400-500 total.
Should I spend gems on stamina?
Only if you’re a whale or during a limited event. Gems are better spent on summons. Stamina refreshes are expensive and get more costly each time.
What’s the best gear set for DPS?
Usually a 2-piece attack set and a 2-piece crit set. But it depends on the hero. Check the in-game recommended sets or community guides.
Can I get duplicates of a hero after they’re maxed?
Yes, but they convert to friend shards automatically. You can then use those shards in the shard shop.
How do I get more friends?
You can add friends from chat, from the friend list of other players, or from your guild. Send friend requests to active players (check their last login time).
Is it better to do 10-pulls or single pulls?
10-pulls guarantee a 4-star or better, so they’re better if you have 10 tickets/gems. Singles are only better if you’re close to pity and want to avoid over-pulling.
