Legend of Heroes XIII – Tips and Cheats: The Ultimate Strategy Guide

Legend of Heroes XIII is a new card battling RPG for the iOS and Android platforms. While it missed the card-battling trend by about a year and a half, this is one of the best of the bunch, with gameplay distilled down to the basics, a compelling story, loads of characters, and no arbitrary energy system to hold you back. Read on for some tips and tricks for Legend of Heroes XIII!

The first thing that confuses about this game is how to enhance your cards. First, you have to go to the menu screen, and you’ll see a list of your current party, plus backup cards. Tap the card that you want to enhance. There are three ways to enhance the card from here. First way is to drag a character card that you don’t want, and drag it over your highlighted card. When you do this, you’ll sacrifice that card and lose it, but your gaining card earn experience points, leveling it up and increasing all of your stats.

The other two ways are to use the gear cards, which are various forms of equipment, and consumable cards. Consumable cards have limited uses, and then they are gone. Drag them onto your gaining card the same way as noted above. However, once you use a gear card you won’t be able to separate it from the card that you placed it on. Each card can equip only one gear card.

Hit the store area to spend your various currencies on other cards, as well. The green coupons and the sapphires that you earn, as well as the rubies, can be spent on card packs here.

Want to find people to trade cards with? Go look through the comments section here, Facebook groups, or others, and post your information (App Store review pages work too). Then once you find numbers of people to match with, enter them in the “Trade Cards” area and you will be able to see if your trade matches up to theirs. Once both of you agree on a trade, then it can be done. Enhanced cards can really sweeten the deal for something you really want.

Check out the PvP mode in the menu area, as well. You and another opponent can battle each other live. Find the weakest opponent that you can for the easiest win that you can get. You will have to pick your arena based on the max rarity of your cards, so fill your deck with as many of the same rarity as possible for maximum power and effectiveness.
