Wow company class stronghold. Guide to Class Strongholds in the Legion

Class Hall is a new addition to the game with the release of Legion. A class stronghold is a zone in which members of a class can perform various actions.

For example:

• return points invested in the properties of the artifact;
• change the appearance of the artifact;
• Complete the Class Hall mission with recruited champions and units;
• delve into the history of the class and artifact by completing special tasks;
• purchase sets of combat and decorative equipment from the quartermaster;
• Receive a reward for completing a dungeon on Advanced Mythic difficulty.

Initially, class strongholds were often compared to garrisons, but now the differences have become obvious. Below we will talk about how to get into a class hall when you first appear on the Broken Isles and how to manage champions and units.

Most classes can get to their stronghold through portals located in different parts of Dalaran. Moreover, for each class there is a separate portal, which cannot be used by characters of another class:

Where are the portals located:

• For and: in the Alliance / Horde hall;
• For: on the airfield;
• use Gliding to get to one of the islands near Dalaran;
• can get to their stronghold through secret passages that exist in some buildings in Dalaran;
• : portal near Cloaca;
• : through a special network of flights on a griffin;
• , and can create portals themselves.
• Sky Citadel, Stormheim

Strongholds of each class

Each class stronghold will have some unique features.

For example:

• Rogues have an additional NPC to access the Black Market Auction.
• Druids in the stronghold have portals to the main natural locations.
• Warriors can duel in a special arena.

How to unlock class hall missions

Accessing class hall quests/missions is easy:

1. Once in Dalaran, complete the quest to obtain an artifact and access to the class stronghold.
2. On the commander's table, select the location where you plan to level up to level 110.
3. Just level up until you reach 325 Artifact Power.
4. Return to Dalaran - receive a short chain of tasks, similar to the quest to obtain an artifact.

After completing this chain you will have access to four things:

• To several champions (companions)
• To your first squad
• Class Hall Upgrade System
• Class Hall Mission Interface

Further access can only be obtained at level 103 - upon returning to the class stronghold, you will again be given a task, after which you will unlock a second type of squad and 2 more champions.

By the way, completing this chain unlocks the appearance of an artifact weapon for the achievement Fight in Style: Classic Look.

Completing the Class Hall Campaign

To complete the class stronghold campaign, you need to reach level 110.

As the campaign progresses, you will receive many nice things:

• Stronghold Resources and Artifact Power
• Level 810 Bracers from the Class Hall set (for 6 champions)
• Level 830 chest from the Stronghold set (for completing the campaign)
• The title associated with your class (for example % Shadow Blade for rogi)
• Third slot for relics in your artifact
• Another artifact skin for the Battleforged achievement.

Class Hall Resources

In Legion, the garrison has been replaced by a stronghold, in which players of the same class will work together to resist the invasion of demons. The development of the stronghold will take place through a new currency - class stronghold resources, which will be used to recruit units, complete missions and orders, and improve your stronghold.

You can get them for regular and world quests, completing a class stronghold campaign, searching for treasures, and killing rare monsters.

It will always be useful to have 1000-2000 resources in reserve for rare missions and artifact research. The remaining portion can be spent on improving your stronghold or class equipment.

Please note: Unlike the garrison, in the Legion you do not receive Stronghold Resources for completing missions!

Where to get Class Order Resources

1. Class Stronghold Campaign (100-5000 resources)

For completing certain tasks in the class stronghold campaign, the player will receive garrison resources. Basically, their number will not be more than a couple of hundred, but after reaching level 110, tasks for both 1500 and 5000 resources will appear.

2. Local quests (350-1000 resources)

Once a week, the player will be able to complete a task to kill world bosses, the reward will be 1000 Class Stronghold Resources. The rest of the world quests will bring 350-450.

Class Hall research, such as Church Tithe, will help increase the effectiveness of quests - you will receive more Class Hall Resources from them.

3. Quests to complete 4 local tasks (600 resources)

Sometimes quests appear to complete 4 world quests. For example, let's take the Court of Farondis, the reward for which will be the Safe of Farondis. There is a high chance that the safe will drop 700-950 resources.

4. One-time bonus tasks (200 resources)

As in Draenor, bonus tasks sometimes appear on the map - they are indicated by two crossed swords. However, they are only available during character leveling and disappear after level 110.

5. Rare mobs and local quests to kill them (70 resources)

Rewards for killing rare mobs can only be received once. For killing mobs while completing local quests from the “WANTED” category, the player will also receive 70 resources.

6. Treasure chests (35-225 resources)

In the process of Legion locations, Small Treasure Chest and Treasure Chest, which can contain 35-225 Class Order Resources. The larger the chest, the more resources it contains.

From each of the Legion factions you can purchase maps that indicate the location of treasures in a specific location of the Broken Isles:

Court of Farondis	Azsuna
Tribes of Highmountain	Highmountain
Dream Weavers	Valshara
Valarjar	Stormheim
Nightfallen	Suramar

You will also find treasure maps in our articles on Legion locations (right column from the table above)

Video about the bonus for receiving Class Stronghold Resources:

What to spend class stronghold resources on?

In this section, we will tell you how and where you can spend Class Order Resources.

1. Research on improvements to the class stronghold (total 39050 resources)

The figures given are calculated per month.

Class Hall upgrades provide the player with various bonuses or buffs while completing quests in the Broken Isles. For example, the Armed with Faith upgrade will allow you to use more legendary items on your character.

The duration of the research increases in proportion to the cost:

• Research for 1000 stronghold resources will last 7 days
• 10 days will take 10,000
• 12 days – 12500
• 14 days – 15000.

Carefully consider your choice, because you will need to pay additional Class Stronghold Resources for the shift.

2. Artifact research (12500 resources)

In order to raise the Artifact Power to the maximum, 25 Artifact Data research is required, each of which costs 500 resources.

3. Improving class stronghold equipment (29,000 resources)

Class set items can be upgraded to level 840. For example, to improve the High Priest's Regalia you will need:

You shouldn't invest as much as possible in equipment until you've upgraded your class stronghold.

4. Completing class stronghold tasks (50-1000 each)

Rare dungeon and raid missions reward a Chest of Nightmare Treasures, each such mission costs 500-1000 Class Order Resources. Some missions are tied to the stronghold campaign, they will cost less - 50 Resources.

In addition, there are missions for which the player receives gold, artifact power, experience, or equipment or experience for the champion. They cost 100-200 Class Order Resources.

5. Hiring troops (20-85 each).

In a class stronghold, the player will have the opportunity to hire troops to go on missions. This way you can perform multiple missions at the same time.

Troops run out over time - one group can only be used 2-3 times, then you need to hire a new one.

Small squad:

• Cost: 20 resources
• Mission success rate: +15%
• Can be used: 2 times.

Large group:

• Cost: 30 resources
• Mission success rate: +30%
• Can be used: 3 times

Leveling up your class stronghold in the Legion

The upgrade system allows you to spend Stronghold Resources on researching improvements to your class Stronghold.

The system is very similar to leveling up artifact talents, where the Stronghold Resources are the Power of the Artifact, and the Class Stronghold is the Artifact.

At the start of the Legion, improvements to the stronghold require large quantity resources and take a lot of time.

A total of 6 levels (tiers) of improvements are available; at each level you can choose from two options, with the options varying for different classes.

Table with research cost and time, choice changes and level requirements (RO = Stronghold Resources):

Improvement level	Leveling up	Changing your selection	Need a level
Tier 1	50 RO / 2 hours	500 RO / 1 day	100
Tier 2	500 RO / 4 hours	2000 RO / 3 days	105
Tier 3	1000 RO / 7 days		110
Tier 4	10000 RO / 10 days
Tier 5	12500 RO / 12 days
Tier 6	15000 RO / 14 days

What upgrades to choose for your class stronghold

In this section of the guide you will find tips on choosing upgrades at each class hall level.

Level 1

During leveling up, for all classes it is better to choose an increase in the chance of receiving an item of a cooler quality as a reward for tasks.

After reaching level 110 and completing most of the missions that could give good equipment, it is better to choose the increased probability of mission success.

Level 2

The choice of upgrades depends on the class:

Death Knights and Paladins	It is better to take the option with a mount. The second option is worth taking only if you do not have enough champions to neutralize threats on missions.
Demon Hunters and Warlocks	At the start of the Legion, when you need equipment, it is more profitable to take the second option - for additional loot and buffs. Closer to the raids you can choose anything
Druids	Additional items - at the start of the Legion, reduction of mission time - later.
Hunters and Mages	Before the introduction of flight in the Legion, the option of moving around the Broken Isles looks preferable; then - depending on the situation.
Monks, Priests, Shamans	For the duration of pumping - option with a buff; at level 110 – improvement of units.
Robbers	A storage voucher is always better.
Warriors	Additional loot - at the beginning of the Legion, reduction of mission time - later

Level 3

If you have just started dressing your champions, choose the option that allows you to complete work orders for equipment or receive it from missions.

When the champions are dressed in good equipment, choose to increase the number of units.

Level 4

As a rule, upgrading large units provides the greatest benefit - as only then will it be possible to neutralize the threat of a boss without champions.

Level 5

Level 6

At the last level of improvement you don’t have to choose anything, since there is only one option available - the ability to wear it on the character 2 legendary items simultaneously.

Class Hall Champions

Champions are notable members of your class who can be recruited throughout your class hall campaign.

You can:

• Send champions on missions
• Recruit them as combat comrades to help you in the Legion

Each class has its own set of unique champions related to the game's history. There are 8 champions for each class hall, but only 5 of them can be active at a time.

If you have more than 5 champions, some of them need to be “deactivated”. To return him to work later, you will need to pay 250 gold.

How to get champions in WOW Legion

All champions are unlocked as you progress through the Stronghold campaign. As soon as you complete the first quest chain after receiving 325 units of Artifact Power, you will receive your first champions.

At level 103, you can complete another chain of quests and unlock 2 more champions.

The remaining champions will be unlocked as you progress through the class hall campaign.

How to dress champions in WOW

New equipment slots for champions open up as their level increases and their quality improves (as with the garrison followers in Draenor).

The first equipment slot opens when the champion reaches a rare quality (blue); the second slot is when it reaches epic quality (purple).

To prepare a champion for battle, you need to find him some equipment. It can be obtained in the following ways:

• Missions in the class stronghold
• World quests
• Treasures
• Rewards for faction envoy quests
• Leveling up your class stronghold

Champion items can be broken down into 6 categories.

1. Increase the likelihood of success

• Increases by a certain amount for all missions
• Increases only for missions shorter than 4 hours
• Boosts only for missions longer than 8 hours

2. Reduced execution time

3. Comparability of comrades

Equipment that provides certain bonuses if certain types of followers are sent with the champion on a mission. Each class has its own set of third category items, which depends on the class stronghold.

There are two types of such items available:

• Increases the chance of success when certain small units are present
• Increases the chance of success with certain large units

4. Equipment of a combat comrade

These items are only useful for combat companions: they improve the player's rewards when completing world quests with the champion.

Two types of such equipment:

• Increase in received Class Order Resources
• Increase in gold received

5. Consumable

Allows you to give certain beneficial effects to champions and units before battle.

Depending on your class, there are three types of such items:

6. Legendary equipment

Legendary gear for followers is different from other items because they are not easy to obtain.

Such equipment is much more powerful and often combines two of the effects mentioned above.

Legendary equipment for champions is as follows:

• Increases the success of all missions by 15% + one thing:
  • Reduces duration by 5%
  • 15 gold for local quests with a follower
• Reduces the time of all missions by 15% + one thing:
  • Increases mission success by 5%
  • 15 gold for world quests with a follower
  • 25 RP when completing world quests with a follower
• Gives 100 RP for completing world quests with the champion + one thing:
  • Increases success by 5%
  • Reduces duration by 5%
  • 15 gold for quests with an ally
• Gives 50 gold for local quests with the champion + one:
  • Increases success by 5%
  • Reduces time by 5%
  • 25 Stronghold Resources for local quests with a colleague

Leveling and quality of champions

The starting level of champions depends on what stage of the class hall campaign the player recruited them at, but their default quality will be normal.

Despite entry level champion, be it 103 or 110, he will still gain experience when completing tasks.

Once a champion reaches level 110, he begins to increase his quality up to epic. The following types of champions exist:

• Ordinary
• Uncommon – Unlocks the champion's second ability.
• Rare – the first equipment slot opens
• Epic – a second equipment slot opens

Level	Required amount of experience	Total experience gained
101	200	200
102	400	600
103	600	1 200
104	800	2 000
105	1 000	3 000
106	1 500	4 500
107	1 750	6 250
108	2 000	8 250
109	2 700	10 950
110	3 000	13 950

Quality of champions/followers and required experience:

Unusual	8 000	21 950
Rare	20 000	41 950
Epic	100 000	141 950

Champion Equipment Level

Upon reaching level 110, the champion will be equipped with ilvl 760, and the player will be able to begin improving his ward’s equipment. The higher the level of the item, the more difficult the tasks the champion will be able to complete. Maximum level 850 items.

There are the following champion equipment upgrades:

• Heavy armor set: +5 ilvl
• Fortified armor set: +10 ilvl
• Set of impenetrable armor: +15 ilvl

Improvements to champion equipment can be obtained by completing class stronghold tasks from the table, or by improving the stronghold itself in tier 3. When assigning champions to missions, be sure to match the level of the mission and the champion. The closer they are in level, the more experience the champion will receive.

Champion Abilities

All champions have pre-assigned abilities. The first is available immediately, and the second opens upon achieving Unusual quality.

Abilities are designed to cover one or another threat that arises during the execution of stronghold tasks from the table. During the quest, a boss threat and a secondary threat arise. If they are not taken into account, the percentage of successful completion of the task will be reduced. The following secondary threats exist:

Combat satellites

Some champions have the ability - combat satellite. Thanks to this, the chosen champion with this trait will help you throughout your journey through the Broken Isles. Some follower abilities are proc, and some are active, meaning they can be summoned on demand. It is worth noting that in dungeons, on battlefields and in most scenarios they will not follow the player.

• Proc Abilities

Such abilities are triggered under certain conditions. For example, if a player starts a battle or takes damage. There is also an internal timer for them.

• Active Abilities

Some champion abilities add an additional button to the character's panel, pressing which the player will be able to summon a champion. The cooldown of such abilities varies from 2 to 5 minutes.

• Bodyguards

Among the other champions, it is worth highlighting the NPC with the bodyguard ability. They will follow you everywhere, can hold aggro and use spells and abilities. If they die, they will quickly return to the battlefield.

Each class will have 4 champions who can be assigned to the place of a combat ally, as well as at least one Bodyguard.

Combat Companion/Fellow Assignment

A combat ally can be assigned on the task table in the stronghold. On the quests tab there will be an empty slot in which you can insert a champion icon, this will cost 50 stronghold resources. You can remove a champion from this slot for free, and there is no CD for reassigning a combat ally.

As soon as a player has appointed a champion to the position of a combat ally, he becomes unavailable for completing tasks through the table in the stronghold. Also, to change equipment, you will have to temporarily remove the champion from this position. For each task completed with the player, the combat ally will receive 150 experience. This way they pump up faster.

Updated: in early September, Blizzard announced a new mobile application for the stronghold - WOW Companion.

It will allow players to control the stronghold from their phone:

• Upgrade class stronghold improvements and change them;
• Deal with equipment for teammates and equip them;
• Start and complete missions (rewards will be in the character’s bags when entering the game);
• See on the map the local quests available for the character.

Stronghold Units

In addition to champions, a significant role in the stronghold of the class is played by Units.

Each unit has different indicators - for example, survivability. You can send troops on missions, but when their survivability runs out, they will die and you will need to recruit new troops.

The units have no equipment, no levels, and no experience - they are just food to distract the monsters while your champions complete the mission.

Squads cannot complete stronghold missions alone - a champion must always accompany them. Adding squads to missions is optional, and only affects the probability of mission success (+15% for a small squad and +30% for a large squad).

How to hire a squad

To hire a squad, you simply need to find a special NPC in your class stronghold and create a work order with him. This will cost a certain amount of stronghold resources (20 RP for a small squad, 85 RP for a large one) and will take 30 minutes.

Four classes - Death Knights, Druids, Mages and Monks - can hire a special type of unit. It takes 12 hours to create, but this unit is stronger than others: it gives +30% chance of mission success and additionally resists certain boss abilities.

To pick up a recruited squad, simply use the item that appears next to the NPC you recruited them from.

Limitations on the number of units

There is no limit on the number of units you can hire, but there is a limit on the number of active and live units at one time. The standard troop size is 3 small squads and 2 large squads. The limit for special teams is no more than one at a time.

The only way to increase the size of your troops is to upgrade your stronghold at level 3 (+1 troop).

Unit Vitality

In the mission interface, you can see heart icons next to the squad icon - these hearts show the squad’s survivability.

Initial values:

• Small squad – 2 hearts
• Large squad – 3 hearts
• Special squad – 1 heart

Each time a squad completes a stronghold mission, they lose one heart (regardless of the outcome of the mission). When all the hearts of a squad run out, it will die and be removed from your troops.

Some classes have abilities that allow you to restore vitality, such as Shattered Souls (Demon Hunter) or Pain Suppression (Priest).

Please note: for regular missions, the squad loses only one heart, but there are missions in the “Lethal” category - for them you must find a squad or champion who will counter the lethal threat. If you don’t find it, the squad will lose all its survivability and die.

Class Order Missions

Just like in Draenor, you can send champions and squads on missions. To begin the mission, go to the command table in the class stronghold.

Mission Interface

The interface remains the same as in the garrison: there is a tab with all available missions, there is a tab with missions already in progress. Here you can hire a champion who will run with you around the Broken Isles.

On the “Comrades” tab, you can view all your units and all champions, improve their equipment, see their abilities, etc.

How to start a mission in a stronghold

To start a mission in a class hall, do the following:

1. Open the mission interface through the command table
2. Select the mission you want to complete
3. Assess the threat each opponent poses
4. Select champions and units that neutralize as many threats as possible
5. Click the "Start Mission" button

Mission threats

There are 5 types of threats that you can encounter during missions:

Each mission can have from 1 to 3 threats - and you can usually neutralize them all.

Additional rewards

Regardless of which stronghold companions you send to complete the mission, the chance of success can be almost doubled. If you do this, you can receive additional rewards.

How the probability of receiving additional rewards is calculated:

• If the probability of mission success is 150%, this is a 100% chance of successfully completing the mission and a 50% chance of receiving additional loot.
• If the success rate is 200%, this is a 100% mission success and a 100% chance of receiving additional rewards.

Additional loot depends on the main reward for the mission:

Token for +50/250 reputation Item for quest (raid)Seal of Broken Fate

Mission types

There are 4 types of missions available in the class hall in Legion:

• Regular: the most common type of missions; rarely give anything other than gold, artifact power and experience.
• Quests: related to the class hall campaign, they must be completed if you want to develop the class hall. Usually they only give the power of the artifact as a reward.
• Treasure: Available when your champions reach gear level 800 (for dungeons) and 820 (for raids). As a reward for such missions you can receive equipment and weapons for champions, as well as the Blood of Sargeras.
• Cosmetic: very rare missions that reward you with fun items, such as pets or toys.

List of pets and toys as rewards for class hall missions:

unknownunknownBattle of the Black Rook Fortress

Class Hall Achievements

All achievements can be found in the Class Hall > Missions menu.

Overall, there are few achievements and almost all of them can be completed simply by playing through the class stronghold campaign, completing missions and recruiting units.

There are no special rewards for achievements in the class stronghold.

Class Hall Armor Sets

For each class there is unique sets 8-piece armor that can only be purchased in a class hall. By appearance These sets are similar to the Mists of Pandaria challenge sets, but there are some minor changes.

Each part of the kit is obtained in a different way:

• Helmet - for a quest in a class stronghold
• Bracers - for recruiting 6 followers for a class hall
• Gloves - Respect with the Nightfallen faction required
• Pants - Requires Revered with three Broken Isles factions
• Feet - you need to kill the last boss in all Legion dungeons
• Breast - for completing a campaign in a class stronghold
• Belt – Earn 50,000 Artifact Power points
• Shoulders – Exalted with the Nightfallen faction

At the same time, different parts of the kit different level items. To increase the level of an item, you need to buy a token, which has certain requirements:

• Upgrade to level 810 – Respect with the Nightfallen;
• Upgrade to level 825 – required to kill the last boss in all Legion dungeons (on any difficulty);
• Upgrade to level 840 – Exalted with the Nightfallen.

We hope this guide to class halls, champions and missions in WOW Legion will help you understand all the intricacies of class halls.

In this section of the guide on class strongholds that appeared in Legion, you will learn how each character can get into the stronghold of their class, as well as in what locations they are located.

How to get into a class stronghold

When do you visit Dalaran for the first time after launch? Legion, your class representative will find you. The task of this representative will result in a whole chain, upon completion of which you will receive an artifact of your specialization. After receiving the artifact and completing the entire chain of quests, you will find yourself in the stronghold of your class.

How to return to the class stronghold

P.S. if you want a discount, write to the operator before purchasing :)

Class strongholds in the Legion are unique areas for working with artifacts, completing quests, and communicating with people of the same class.

1. How to get to the Class Stronghold.

For the vast majority of classes in the game, access to the stronghold will be through portals scattered throughout Dalaran.

• Druids, Mages, Death Knights and Monks - can move under their own power - Bulwark of the Guardian, Dreamwalker, Death's Door and Spiritual Journey
• Demon hunters will first have to use Gliding to get to a small island near Dalaran, where they can find a portal. If your planning goes wrong, some gargoyle will pick you up and drag you away.
• A special network of air routes is available for hunters. To go to Strelka's Shelter, you need to find Talua and talk to her.
• Paladins will need to get to Light's Hope Chapel, or use the teleporter in the faction quarter.
• Priests have access only to the portal in the faction quarter.
• Robbers know better than anyone where a crooked path can lead them. Therefore, they need to go to “Magnificent Goods” (52 69), “Tanks Are Our Everything” (45 29) or “One Hundred Again” (53 33). In these establishments you should look for hidden doors.
• The shaman portal is located on the Kras site.
• Warlocks should look for the portal on the road to Cloaca.
• Warriors in each location should look for Valkyra, near whom they can use the Jump to the Sky Citadel ability to be transported to the Stronghold.

2. Is there any profit from Strongholds?

Each Stronghold gives its class certain game advantages:

• Robbers will be able to visit a representative of the Black Market and find the Suspicious Box toy
• Demon Hunters and Warlocks can add a new pet to their collection - the Hateful Eye
• Warriors are allowed to fight each other in a special arena and receive the Stormforged Vrykul Horn toy for victory.
• Druids get the ability to quickly get to some blooming locations. The Grove of Dreams is home to two pets - Nightmare Lasher and Forester.
• Shamans in their Stronghold play a totemic version of the game “Light’s out”. The winner will be rewarded with a Lava Fountain toy. If you search, you can find a new pet - Snowfang.

3. What to do in Oplot?

The stronghold is used as a base for improvements, leveling up and completing quests:

• Completing class stronghold missions. These missions can be completed significantly less often than the Garrison missions on Draenor. But the rewards are definitely worth completing. For the mission Reconnaissance in the Dark Heart Thicket you can receive the quest item Vial of Poisonous Blood, which transports the character to the dungeon. Here you can also get Champions and Squads to complete missions in the Stronghold.
• Visit the quartermaster to purchase a set of Bulwark armor, weapons to transmog armor upgrades, and some shape-changing items.
• Here you can also communicate with other class representatives of both factions.
• Working with an Artifact: you can increase your strength and learn talents anywhere, but you can only change the appearance of an Artifact in a stronghold.
• You can reset Artifact talent points only in the Stronghold.
• Start research with a mob to increase Artifact Knowledge.
• After completing a Mythic+ Keystone dungeon within the allotted time, you will be able to find the reward in your chest in the Stronghold next week.
• And, of course, you have to complete unique class quests to learn more about your character's lore.

4. Armor sets in the Stronghold

Each class can earn an eight-piece Bulwark armor set. These sets are reminiscent of the collections that can be obtained through Challenge Mode in Mists of Pandaria, but of course with some differences.
Different parts of the body kit are obtained in different ways:

• The helmet is obtained by completing a simple Stronghold quest at level 110.
• To receive the bib, you need to complete the Stronghold campaign.
• Leggings can be obtained by defeating the final bosses in eight Legion dungeons.
• Shoulders are awarded for Exalted by the Darkened.
• To get the belt, you must earn 100,000 Artifact Power.
• Boots are only given to players revered by any two factions of the Broken Isles.
• Gloves - for Respect for the Darkened.
• To obtain wrists, you need to hire six Champions in the Stronghold.

Each item from the collection can be upgraded to item level 840:

• Up to 820 – Small armor plates for 500 Class Stronghold Resources.
• From 820 to 830 for Armor Overlays for 2000 Class Stronghold Resources.
• From 830 to 840 - you will have to fork out for Large armor plates for 4000 Class Stronghold Resources.

5. How to upgrade the Stronghold?

The resources of the Stronghold class are also used to upgrade the Stronghold Talent Tree, which consists of five Tiers. In the first four you always choose between two talents, and in the last - only one talent, but what a talent!

Tier 1 requires level 100, 50 resources, 2 hours of research, and allows you to choose between increasing the chance of completing the first Stronghold mission of the day and increasing the chance that the quest reward will be improved.
- The second tier is also interesting - you need level 105, 500 resources, 4 hours of research, and it can help open hidden appearance Artifact. You can choose between a special class talent and increasing the chance of completing a mission.
- For the third tier you need level 110, 1000 resources, 7 days of research. You can choose between the number of units to hire and the ability to place orders for equipment for Champions.
- The fourth tier requires level 110, 10,000 resources, 10 days of research, and provides talents that strengthen units.
- The fifth tier requires level 110, 12500 resources, 12 days of research. But you will receive one Seal of Broken Fate, two talents that can be spent on instantly completing a Quest on the World Map, a reinforced assistant, or additional resources when completing World Quests with Champions.
- Tier six – level 110, 15,000 resources, 14 days of research. But the reward is worth it - you will be able to equip two legendary items at the same time. And this tier must be obtained to open the third relic slot in the Artifact.

Also, for an additional fee, you can change the selected Talent.

Overall, the picture turns out to be very tempting and very confusing: do you want more gaming goodies? This means you have a direct route to Oplot!

Companions not only help complete missions, but also reveal some history in the fight against the Legion. So, you can meet key lore personalities, for example, Rehgar for shamans or Manastorm for magicians. The main goal of companions (champions) is to help in various missions of the class stronghold, which provide experience, artifact power, gold, and sometimes gear. A certain number of missions are also required to complete a class campaign or obtain a mount, such as a fox. Each class has access to eight followers in the Legion stronghold, but only five champions can be active. The rest will be marked “awaiting instructions.” You can activate an ally at any time, but it will cost 250 gold. Leveling up companions in the Legion: common, rare, epic The starting level of a champion is determined in which company (chapter) of the stronghold it was received, but the starting quality will always be normal. That is, the quality does not depend on the hero’s level: 100, 13, 19 or 110. The maximum level is 110. To improve the quality of a follower, you need to complete missions. Experience chart for followers regardless of class:

XP required: Epic

When a champion has reached the maximum level and quality, no experience is awarded to him.

Legion Companion Item Levels

Once a follower has reached level 110, he receives item level 760, which can be upgraded to complete more difficult tasks. The maximum item level is 850. Increasing the quality of equipment requires the following improvements:

• Heavy armor set: +5 position level
• Reinforced armor set: +10 position level
• Impenetrable armor set: +15 position level

This means that items will always be multiples of the number, and followers cannot have, for example, 799 ilvl. You can obtain elements in two ways: from various stronghold missions, using the third level of stronghold improvement. As for the second method, Druids, Monks and Shamans can get it. Other classes simply place orders to complete champion weapons. Each order takes 12 hours and costs 50 units of resources. Guide to companions in a class stronghold: low level and combat Sometimes, for a 100% win rate in missions, you can add low-level companions, but if you send all low-level champions on a mission, the chances of winning will be much lower . It is also worth considering that such companions do not receive full experience. If the difference is too great, then it will simply become useless: it does not contribute to success.

Equipment of comrades in the Legion

When champions reach level 110 or another quality, they unlock equipment slots that can be used as upgrades. The first slot is unlocked when the follower reaches Rare quality, the second - Epic. You can get equipment:

• Class Stronghold Missions
• Local quests
• Third level of the stronghold
