Zio and The Magic Scrolls Beginners Guide: Tips and Tricks
1. Using the first 3000 diamonds
After finishing the tutorials, the game will have given you enough rewards of 3000 diamonds. You can use this on the normal summons of 10 times+1 since it will guarantee you to get an S rank Hero. With that, you will now have 2 S rank Heroes along with ZIO. Focus on using your EXP Potions and Magic Crystals on upgrading your S rank Heroes so that you can clear the chapters easily.
But don’t forget to level different types of your Heroes (at least 2 Heroes per type) so that you can gain the upper hand in battle. Continue to collect 3000 diamonds for the summons of 10 times + 1 to get you closer to receiving a guaranteed Immortal Hero after doing 100 summons.
2. Wait longer for AFK reward from Bono’s bag
Since this is an AFK game, you will receive certain amounts of loot such as Gold, Hero EXP, User EXP, and Magic Crystals from your companion Bono. The key is to wait longer because the longer you wait, the better the AFK reward will become. So makes sure to only open it once every day (or longer).
3. Party match up
There is a system of Team Buff in the game that increases your type for having Heroes of the same type in your team. The list is:
- Having 3 Heroes of the same type : Increase ATK by 5% and HP by 5%
- Having 3 Heroes and 2 Heroes of the same type : Increase ATK by 7% and HP by 7%
- Having 4 Heroes of the same type : Increase ATK by 8% and HP by 8%
- Having 5 Heroes of the same type : Increase ATK by 10% and HP by 10%
However, Immortal Heroes are not counted for this Team Buff and instead can support the team by activating certain Power. Choosing Heroes with a certain fighting style is also important. Having your Tanker Heroes place in front and magician in the back (Zio as an example) can is the best way to win.
4. Regularly finish Dungeons, Dual circles, and Demon king tower
This might be one of the most obvious things to point out but it is something that a lot of beginners tend to forget about doing. Since these battles have different amounts of material rewards for every floor and level, getting through them early on is something you must-do if you want to get ahead of other players. Entry tickets recharge after every 1 hour so don’t forget to regularly check the game and play through the battles.
Every time you win in Duel Circle, you will receive a certain amount of coins. Regularly play the game to acquire enough coins to exchange with blue-grade equipment.
In the Demon King Tower, there is a chest that recharges special coins for every minute. The higher you reach the floor, the higher will the recharge rate becomes. Gather enough coins to purchase Summon Tickets and Soul Essences that you can use to promote your Heroes to a higher rank.
5. Joining a Guild
You can receive a lot of stat increase for your Heroes through Guild Training and Guild Supporter. There are 6 guild skills that you can get by holding guild training together with your guild members. Though 5 of them you will have to unlock by increasing your guild level.
