The written edition

What to do & why

Choose a main squad before spreading scarce hero resources. A good development plan builds a functioning five-hero team with damage, protection and support.

  1. Place defense heroes at the front and damage/support behind them as a baseline. Adjust only for specific skill interactions.
  2. Invest around the lineup you actually deploy most often, while preserving enough development for the other modes you play.
  3. Compare stars, skills, gear and exclusive-weapon progression together rather than judging a hero only by rarity.
Stats for nerds

The details behind the decision

Baseline type bonuses and counter relationships matter, but do not replace equipment, survival and skill synergy. A stronger total-power lineup can still be a poor matchup.

Accuracy & scope

What is confirmed—and what isn’t

The official-hosted lineup reference is community-contributed. The archive’s hero tier ordering is not an official ranking.

Strategy recommendations are GOD of War’s editorial advice. Official-wiki hosting does not turn player-contributed advice into a developer guarantee. When a number is not supported, this edition omits it rather than inventing a value.
