The only pack or purchase that you can make a strong case for is the monthly gem pack. I know this is a FTP guide but if you are going to spend any money on anything.Complete missions only up to the first 300 gem reward, and stay on top of quests for free energy until the point where they become too difficult.Buying masteries is one of the best ways to spend gems other than ancient shard packs and of course - energy. Try to keep 800 gems always banked for your first great dps/def legendary or epic.

Buy all market slots asap and keep checking it for lucky item stats or shards.Core team should be Valerie - Diabolist - Starter - Warmaiden + DPS or Healer pulled from ancient shards.Save Void / Sacred Shards for 2x or special events like 10x support hero chance - but use ancient shards at will until you acquire a solid core team / useful pulls like apothecary, Athel or duplicates for skill upgrades.Get her to 6 star asap without sacrificing decent champion pulls from shards. Starter - Elhain - Spend 800 gems for masteries ( ) geared with early acquired lifesteal for damage/crit rate/ crit damage.The TLDR : continue past for in depth explanations This means that this road-map is viable for all new players and not just the lucky ones who pull god tier rare, epics, and legendary heroes right from the get go. This guide is intended for players sub 30 days and focuses on min-max, tested (on multiple play-through) methods assuming you have little to no luck in hero summons. If you follow the advice here I can guarantee you'll make it to a point where you can steadily progress instead of hitting that awkward roadblock. From my own experience starting Raid and through friends who I have invited the biggest issue starting out, is if you don't get lucky with hero summons and utilize resources in the wrong way - You can end up stuck unable to farm the stages of the game that are essential to advancing your roster and player experience. The objective of this guide is to give new FTP players a fighting chance at rapid early-mid game progression.
