Ads are your friends!

Wittle Defender is incredibly F2P-friendly, and to keep that alive, there are ads that anyone can watch to claim various rewards. I strongly suggest you watch them for these rewards, since they can give you anything from Stamina to Gold and even revive your heroes for free once per battle.

Here is what you should watch ads for:

  • 3 ads for the Daily Free Pack from the Pack Shop (gives you Gems).
  • 1 ad in the Black Market Shop for the free Gold (2h).
  • 5 ads to refill 5 Stamina every day.
  • 2 ads for free Patrol rewards.
  • 1 ad for free regular Summon in the hero gacha.
  • 1 ad for a free Hero Summon Ticket in the Summon Market.
  • 3 ads for 3 Rate-up Hero Summon Tickets, also in the Summon Market.

As you can see, there are plenty of ways to progress every day. So, now that you know about all these little perks, it's time to dive into the actual Wittle Defender guide!

Tip #1 - Advance as much as you can every day

daily challenges

The first thing you should do is try to pass as many stages as you can, every single day. Doing so will unlock higher and higher ranks, and you can find them in the bottom left corner of the screen. This feature has the following ranks:

  • Trailblazer
  • Elite
  • Vanguard
  • Warrior
  • Master
  • Legendary
  • Heroic
  • Deity

Each of these ranks unlocks new content, and I strongly recommend you try to read all the missions required for a specific rank and complete them as soon as you can.

From these, you'll get access to newer gear, increased Stamina regen, and lots and lots of Hero Summon Tickets. Make sure you advance in the story mode as much as you possibly can every day, since no two games are the same. I recommend using most of your Stamina on clearing these stages after you finish doing your dailies.

After clearing a chapter, go for the Star Challenge

In the Star Challenge, you will have to challenge a stage you've already cleared, and try to finish it with 3*. The more stars you collect, the better you'll rank, and the more rewards you'll get. The Star Challenge stages also cost Stamina, so only complete these when you cannot progress any further in the story mode.

Tip #2 - Complete all your 7-day missions & dailies

7 day missions

The moment you start playing, you will unlock the 7-day missions. Think of them as your beginner missions, because once you complete them all, you will get a Mythic hero, Demon Spawn, which is an amazing ST hero. You'll also get lots of other rewards, so make sure you do everything you can to finish them all.

You also have a Goodies tab, where you can get some items for free, while others will cost you either Gems or real money. I suggest you go for the packs that cost Gems and give you Hero Summon Tickets, since that's a really good offer for 2000 Gems.

Do your dailies!

Every single day, there are some dungeons you should try to complete no matter what. That is, if you want to progress a lot in Wittle Defender and make your team a lot stronger.

The dailies I recommend you do are located in the Daily Challenge tab, on the bottom right corner of the screen. There, you'll find the Golden Rat Hole, which gives you a lot of Gold, the Goblin Ground, which gives you EXP, and the Boar Hunt, which gives you gear. There are others too, but those three are some of the most important things you should try to do.

Tip #3 - How to get more Gems and spend your Gems?

How to get more Gems?

Gems are the premium currency in Wittle Defender, and there are so many ways you can spend them. To get more Gems, there are quite a few ways. I mentioned the codes for Wittle Defender before, since that's one way to get them.

  • Complete Chapters
  • From the 7-Day missions
  • Adventure Fund
  • Daily Quests
  • Weekly Quests
  • Achievements
  • First Clear of Daily Challenges
  • Seasonal battle pass

How to spend your Gems in Wittle Defender?

Firstly, if you're just starting off, I suggest you spend all of your Gems on the packs you unlock in the 7-day Carnival. This has a feature that requires you to spend a certain amount of Gems, so the best way to do that is to purchase the packs that cost Gems. At least, the ones that give Hero Summon Tickets.

After you finish with these, I suggest you spend your Gems in the Black Market Shop on the Random Mythic Hero Shards. I would also recommend the Hero Summoning Tickets if you really need them, but only if they come at 210 Gems, not higher.

Tip #4 - About Hero Summoning

Hero summoning is quite interesting in Wittle Defender, since your first summon will give you Demon Spawn (Mythic) guaranteed. Then, you will get some Legendary heroes, which are okay, but soon you'll replace them.

You need to focus on doing 500 total summons to unlock the Xenoscape Summon, and from there, you will get a guaranteed Mythic. The reason I suggested buying the 2000 Gem packs that give you Hero Summon Tickets is for this exact reason - you want to unlock the Xenoscape Summon ASAP, since it's the best one.

Getting Summon Tickets for this also is pretty difficult, since you will only get 1 Xenoscape Hero Summon Ticket for every 40 summons you do in the normal gacha.

Tip #5 - Battle tips for Wittle Defender

There are so many things we can touch on when it comes to battle, but to keep things simple and easy to understand, I've listed them all and given a brief description for each:

  • The first hero you deploy will go in the middle (like the five dots of a dice, the first hero will be placed in the middle, protected by the other four). This should be your strongest hero, the one you never want to die - ideally, the boss killer.
  • Always deploy five heroes for the EXP multiplier.
  • Try to focus on the skills of a boss killer hero (like Demon Spawn) and one AoE hero, then on the others.
  • Chain Skills are good, but not mandatory. They will help, but always prioritise evolving the skill of your heroes wherever possible.
  • You will get skill rerolls from your Talents, and you should reroll only when the skills you draw during battle are useless.
  • I recommend playing the battles on at least 2x speed.
  • Revive your fallen heroes only if absolutely necessary and if they have their skills upgraded - otherwise, they might not even be worth reviving at all.

Tip #6 - Upgrade your heroes' gears and your Talents

Gear

Last but definitely not least, I want to touch on the hero equipment. Gear is important, but the best part is that you don't have to level up individual pieces of gear. You will level up a hero slot, and that slot will include the hero level and the gears. Basically, you can swap heroes among themselves without fear of losing your resources.

It's a fantastic feature that I believe a lot more games should have!

So, what you need to keep in mind is that you need to always focus on one or two heroes from your team, and upgrade their gear slots to at least +10. Also, don't forget to refine the gear you get. This will increase the stats for each slot. It will cost you a lot of Gold and Azure Essence, and refining can fail too, so prepare yourself for that.

Talents

Talents can be found in the Camp> Talent tent, and there you will draw a card that gives you one Talent. Drawing costs increasingly more Gold, so to max out your Talents, it can cost you millions eventually.

I recommend you first draw up to the point where it starts costing a maximum of 15k Gold per draw, then spend that Gold on upgrading your gear. After you have reached a comfortable level of upgrades with your gear, keep drawing Talents.

Also, don't miss out on the latest codes for Wittle Defender, since they will give you lots of Gems and Hero Summon Tickets.
