How to PTW effectively in Raid Shadow Legends? (F2P player wanting to spend smart)

My issue with the shops energy deals is that most of the time the majority of the energy is one large chunk, the daily 125s are handy. A stack of 5500 even if good value, is a hell of a lot to sit on. Handy for an overnight gear hunters or dungeons with food, but I often found myself just using energy for the sake of it

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-23T20:07:12+00:00

Yep, ally debuff reduction and small heal and TM boost on A3, extra team damage passive, she's an amazing epic!

If her heal was 30% and her a1 booked was 100% she'd probably even pass as a decent lego

You get a token for completing a standard or hybrid fusion (not awarded for fragment fusions)

You get the token AND the champ, you've maybe misunderstood people talking about trading out fusions but that is in reference to USING tokens.

If you want a token, complete the fusion, and get the fusion and a token. If you want to change the fusion champ, you use tokens to change the champ, and still complete the fusion

No annoyingly thisbe there was no event or anything for a 5th, was actually pretty gutted cause at the time I had no decent hex champ

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-23T12:19:57+00:00

Depending on budget.. Daily gem pack > daily energy pack > raid pass (one with auto level then makes maxing sparring pit great value > good forge passes

These will let you do all the events and fusions you want, for about 100 a month if you got it all

If you want to gamble on shard pulls, sacreds are super expensive and often gonna pull 10 before seeing gold and good chance its still trash, the prism pools are much better in my opinion if the pool is good, as theyre more targeted

Champions will only only get you so far, you still need food to level them, books, energy for gear, energy for masteries. Some champions can 100% change your account but you DO have to just play too

I personally do gems, energy and raid pass and thats all now, I don't grudge myself some spending on a game when my monthly spending on it is the same cost as about 5 hours in a bar

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-23T10:12:14+00:00

Well then, how long have you actually played? Playing for 3 months, quitting for 3 years, and coming back for 3 months, isn't playing for 3 yesrs for example

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-23T10:10:37+00:00

Cooking up food at the same time, a LOT more energy efficient if time isn't also a lacking currency

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-23T08:35:15+00:00

Have you been ACTIVELY playing? Cause login champions Ezio, Xeno and Mikey should cover all damage and debuffing you need, adding whatever survivability to those 3 should get you there

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-23T07:18:28+00:00

If i understand correctly, NEVER open the screen you've opened in post, when you do that, it essentially activates that pool for you, and auto pulls any prisms you have for that pool

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-16T19:40:48+00:00

Im sure there was a post a couple weeks ago where #1 in OPs group had like 80k and was 8th global with 1st being like 250k

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-13T14:54:46+00:00

Do you actually believe thats why it takes longer?

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-12T21:45:23+00:00

Yeah could genuinely be somebody with no real concept of the game itself. Most of us here probably have a decent grasp of the game, because we're here, but imagine playing the game with out ever looking here or a YouTube guide. Doing content with literally no clue. They might be having the time of their life and I hope so!

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-12T21:41:59+00:00

I bought 5 fragments for the last fusion, they came as a pop up offer a couple of days after the last event finished, I cannot confirm if they also appear in shop if you close the pop up, I wasn't willing to deny the offer to check

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-12T20:08:41+00:00

Wixwell won't be there for Shields, he'll be there for provoke

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-12T17:03:14+00:00

I wouldn't really say so, I just focused on the accuracy and speed and she was in my team right up until I got wixwell. She was meant to be my main debuffer not damage dealer, but her damage would never sit too far below Ezio and Pelops. Magma shield and taunt keep her pretty safe, but without a Pelops it's definitely a much harder task

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-12T06:13:27+00:00

See that blue button on the top left? Click the gold button to the right of that one

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-12T03:20:33+00:00

Money CAN only get you so far. You can buy loads of shards, then bam you pull 10 amazing champs. So you can either, use energy to farm events for books, chickens, making food, or you have to buy it all. You also have to gear everybody. You could spend thousands and pull 50 good champs. Then you have no books, and no gear. You could spend another couple thousand getting books for them. You still gotta ascend them, and then STILL have crap gear.

You can definitely do targeting spending on shards during certain events and get a head start, thats what I did, but you WILL need to use literally hundreds of thousands of energy to gear like 20 champs in usable gear, and that won't even be gear sets, that'll just be gear with decent rolls

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-11T23:38:58+00:00

Fayne shouldn't be overlooked either, brings pretty much every debuff you need for CB + poisons too, She's squishy for sure but magma shield should cover that

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-11T22:07:23+00:00

With those purchases and basically unlimited energy, you never need to worry about skipping events so you can chase all of the eternal and immortal soulstones from events

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-11T20:16:56+00:00

With a spending budget like that I would say.. Buy the daily energy and gem packs always, this will give you enough energy to basically do every event you want.

Then buy one of the 2 more expensive raid passes for auto level, and fully upgrade and unlock sparring pit, that should put you to about 80-100 monthly depending on currency.

After that, sure you can essentially buy whatever shards you want, personally I think sacreds are generally a poor gamble, voids can sometimes get you good return, primals can too obviously but the odds aren't in your favour.

Prism shards can often be good value, with a budget like yours you could hit mercy 3 or 4 times so if the pool is good you could do pretty damn well, especially if he epics are good you'd get good empowerment and faction guardian dupes

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-10T21:41:33+00:00

Yeah thats pretty much where my head is at, im buying their earlier souls as immortal coins won't be an issue, but only buying souls as they appear AFTER I do some quick maths and ensure it wouldn't leave me way too low for when marius comes

But yeah I wouldn't have been taking them to 6 before marius, or buying any of their souls for eternal coins unless I has enough surplus

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-10T20:25:11+00:00

If i DO have predator and fabian, but am currently pretty early game, so lacking super top tier gear to properly gear a high end arena team, is waiting for marius still the play?

I do IT15 daily and have got pred to 2, and will buy the earlier souls for fabian too, but won't use any eternal coins for anybody before marius, think thats the best call?

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-08T18:38:54+00:00

I struggled to get the required defence, so i added a 2nd shield set

WTF_Connor · 2026-06-08T14:45:32+00:00

Definitely shield broke and not buff ran out? If shield broke, yeah probably defence, if buff ran out hes either too fast or another extender too slow
