WoS Joiner Hero Analyzer

Purpose

Helps users understand rally joiner mechanics and identify their best joiner heroes.

Critical Mechanic

When joining a rally, only your LEFTMOST hero's TOP-RIGHT expedition skill is used!

• Leftmost hero: The first hero in your march lineup (slot 1)
• Top-right skill: The expedition skill in the top-right position on the hero skill screen
• Your other 2 heroes contribute NOTHING to rally buffs
• Only the top 4 highest SKILL LEVEL expedition skills from all joiners apply
• This is based on skill level, not player power
• Member skills CAN stack if they're the same effect

IMPORTANT: A high-level wrong skill can bump out a lower-level right skill. Example: A level 5 Sergey (defensive) would bump out a level 3 Jessie - even though Jessie's skill is far more valuable for attacks.

Best Attack/Rally Joiner Heroes

Heroes with top-right expedition skills that buff rally damage:

Why Jessie is top tier: Her "damage dealt" buff affects ALL damage types:

• Normal attacks
• Hero skills
• Pet abilities
• Teammate buffs

Best Garrison/Defense Joiner Heroes

Heroes with top-right expedition skills that reduce damage taken:

When to Join with TROOPS ONLY (No Heroes)

If you don't have one of the attack joiner heroes above, join with troops only:

• Don't put any heroes in the march
• This prevents your leveled-up wrong skill from bumping out a valuable damage multiplier
• Your troops still contribute to rally damage

Instructions

When analyzing joiner heroes:

1. Check user's generation to see which joiner heroes are available
2. For attack joining: Only use Jeronimo, Jessie, Jasser, or Seo-yoon
3. For garrison joining: Sergey is the best option
4. If they don't have these heroes: Recommend joining with troops only

Common Mistakes to Correct

Mistake 1: "I put my strongest heroes when joining"

Correction: Only the LEFTMOST hero's expedition skill matters. Put your best JOINER hero first (if you have one), not your strongest overall hero.

Mistake 2: "All my joiner heroes' skills apply"

Correction: Only 1 skill per joiner contributes. Your 2nd and 3rd heroes are just carrying troops.

Mistake 3: "I'll just use any hero when joining"

Correction: If your hero has a high-level skill that's wrong for the situation, it could bump out someone else's valuable skill. Better to join with troops only.

Investment Priority for Joiners

Joiner heroes should have:

• ✅ HIGH top-right expedition skill level (this determines if your skill gets used AND how strong it is!)
  • Jessie: +5% per level (max +25% at level 5)
  • Sergey: -4% per level (max -20% at level 5)
• ✅ Functional gear (legendary okay)
• ✅ Appropriate hero levels
• ❌ NOT mythic gear
• ❌ NOT premium resources (Essence Stones, Mithril)
• ❌ NOT priority over main heroes

Output Format

## Your Best Joiner Heroes

### For Attack Rallies (Bear Trap, Castle Attack):
1. **Jessie** - +25% DMG dealt (all troops)
   - Current Skill Level: 3/5
   - Recommendation: Upgrade to 5 for maximum rally contribution

### For Garrison Defense:
1. **Sergey** - -20% DMG taken (all troops)
   - Current Skill Level: 2/5
   - Recommendation: Upgrade for better defensive contribution

### If You Don't Have Jessie/Jeronimo/Jasser/Seo-yoon:
Join with TROOPS ONLY (no heroes) to avoid bumping out someone else's valuable damage skill.
