- Enemy's Health Bar: Refer above, when targeting an enemy after selecting a preferred skill, the whole bar (Red and Yellow) represents your target's current health.
- The yellow bar represents your skill's expected damage on that target, while the red bar represents the expected remaining health. Note that dodge and criticals can ignore this expectations.
- Stamina Bars: The yellow bar represents the expected stamina deducted after using a preferred skill, while the blue bar is the expected stamina left after.
- Missions and Battles -
Unlocking Normal Missions
- You should always look ahead to see what requirements are needed to unlock the next mission. Click the "Mission" Menu and browse the chapter missions to view the requirements.
Unlocking Premium Missions
- Buy the Hero needed in the premium mission. Unlocking premium missions from the "Mission" window will automatically give you the needed Hero, so it's ok either way.
- There are good items that are obtainable only in the premium missions.
Hero and Villains Classes
- Click the "SHOW HELP" button in the pre-combat screen to review these classes at any time. Each class is strong against one and weak against another.
Buffs and Debuffs
To mix in some more complications, each Hero and Villain has their own set of unique buffs that will enhance their performance in battle. On the other hand, both sides can also inflict debuffs that will degrade the performance of their targets. Check them out by hovering your mouse over the characters.

Mini / Main / Epic Boss Fights
- You can choose to fight a Mini-Boss before fighting the Main Boss.
- If you decide to not fight the Mini-Boss and jump straight to the main boss, both bosses will appear in the same fight! This makes that boss fight extra challenging but also rewarding!
- An Epic Boss is a hidden boss that appears when specific conditions are met.
