Raid Shadow Legends: Fusions, Dragons, and Strategies
Intro: A Chilly Start But Still Ready to Grind
You’ve probably had those days when life throws curveballs—someone’s got the flu, you’re all bundled up, yet you still feel that pull to log in and grab your rewards. That’s the vibe here. Despite an iffy throat and a big pile of tissues, we’re pressing on to gather resources, progress in tournaments, and brace for the next Raid Shadow Legends fusion.
Slaying Tournaments and Daily Tasks
Before anything else, let’s talk tournaments. The Queen’s Fury event just wrapped up in a big way. Landing in the top three is always sweet, but even second place can bring a load of loot. Once you’ve finished there, don’t forget the Dragon Tournament, which often asks you to build teams around specific factions like Demon Spawn, Undead Horde, Dark Elves, and Knight’s Revenant.
If you’re uncertain which champions fit, filter by faction in your champion menu. A balanced mix of damage, ally protection, and healing is a great way to handle dungeons. If Dragon 20 feels too tough, lower it to a stage you can manage consistently for gear and points.
Champion Training: Brews, Chickens, and Patience
Whether you’re new or experienced, champion training is a reliable way to rack up points for events. Start by using brews to level up lower-rank champions—often called “food”—so you can rank up the key members of your squad. Brews save time if you have them in big stacks, and turning four-star champions into five-star ones boosts your progress in champion training events.
Don’t forget to keep track of fusion requirements. The last thing you want is to throw a champion you need for an upcoming fusion into the grill. Always double-check your roster before sacrificing anything.
Upcoming Fusion: Esme the Dancer
February 10 brings the fresh Esme the Dancer fusion. This isn’t tied to any recent crossover—like Alice or He-Man—so we’re back to Raid-exclusive lore. It’s a fragment fusion, typically more user-friendly if you plan well. Gather enough fragments, and you can summon Esme at your own pace.
There’s also talk of a companion champion, Modo of the Peal Ogryn. We’re still waiting to see how to grab that one, but there’s a decent chance it involves extra events or shards. Keep your eye on the upcoming schedules.
Pulling Shards and Two-Times Events
A two-times chance on Void Shards hits on February 7. For many of us, that means crossing fingers for rare pulls we still need. If you’re aiming for a specific champion, this is often your best shot. If you’d rather save shards for the fusion event, go for it. The choice depends on your personal plan for champion chase tournaments.
Challenging the Doom Tower
Doom Tower can be a bruiser, especially when you’re venturing through higher floors. The tower’s difficulty spikes call for careful team setups: controlling turn meters, shielding, healing, and stun options are your friends. If you hit a wall, step back and try other floors or gear upgrades. Sometimes, that stage you’re stuck on needs more synergy or better stats on your top picks.
The Free-to-Play Edge: Why the Gem Pass Rules
Running out of energy is the biggest headache for anybody relying on daily freebies. If you can swing it, the Gem Pass is a monthly option that gives you a steady flow of gems. Spend those on energy refills, gear swapping, or champion masteries. It’s not mandatory, but it speeds up growth if you don’t mind the minor splurge each month.
Final Thoughts
Raid Shadow Legends keeps rolling out new events, champions, and dungeons, which means there’s always something on the horizon. From warming up your daily grind with Dragon runs to prepping for the next fusion, the key is smart resource use. Level your champions, keep your shards ready for important pulls, and don’t be afraid to lower dungeon stages if you need more stable runs. You’ll snag more gear, more rewards, and less frustration.
