CM Serena 09/01/2023

 

Greetings from <Summoners War: Chronicles>.

 

In the previous guide, we went through some tips on how to select and enhance Runes, as well as Rune setups for attack type Monsters.

 

This time, we have prepared tips on how to utilize Alchemy and

set up Runes for defense Monsters.

 

Please check the details below!

 


 

▌Serena's Special Tip For New & Returning Summoners (Rune setups for defense type Monsters)

 

1. Utilize Galaxy Stones and Spell Books!

If you followed the previous guide, you’ll be busy enhancing your Runes’ main/sub properties to find the best Runes for your Monsters.

 

Since every Monster requires many different stats, simply enhancing Runes will not suffice if you’re aiming to develop an even stronger Monster.

 

This time, we will explain about applying effects and enchanting, which make your Runes even stronger!

 

Applying effects requires Galaxy Stones, and enchanting requires Spell Books.

Galaxy Stones and Spell Books can be crafted via [Profession] - [Alchemy] or obtained from Alchemy Boxes that are available from quests and events.

※ Galaxy Stones and Spell Books provide a greater stats increase the higher their grades. Make sure you keep raising your Profession level!

 

2. Your Main/Sub Weapons Need Handwork Gems!

Did you know the Summoner’s main and sub weapons can boost your Monsters’ stats?

 

Each main and sub weapon can have up to 3 Handwork Gem slots.

Equipping a Red, Blue, or Green Handwork Gem in each of the slots will increase the ATK, DEF, and Utility stat of all Monsters!

※ Again, Profession is essential as higher-grade Handwork Gems provide a greater stats increase!

 

Your main weapon only applies 25% of the effect to attributes other than the one you’re currently equipping. But your sub weapons always apply the effect, so you should equip the best Handwork Gem of the most widely used stat.

CRIT Rate on the Red Handwork Gem, HP(%) on the Blue, and ACC on the Green are the most efficient.

 

■ CM Serena’s Alchemy Summary

① Use Galaxy Stones and Spell Books to make up for insufficient stats from Rune enhancement.

② Handwork Gems are essential for your Summoner’s main/sub weapons!

③ Level up your Profession to craft Galaxy Stones, Spell Books, and Handwork Gems.

▶ Water Archangel doesn’t need ACC since it doesn’t use any harmful effects. Invest in RES and Evasion if you have any properties to spare!

▶ Fire Paladin and Fire Beast Monk have powerful CC and harmful effects, so they need some ACC to apply them.

 

Water Archangel

- Remove Harmful Effect, Recovery (Based on DEF)

- Focus on DEF and HP, and get some RES and Evasion to become indestructible!

※ This Rune setup is recommended for DEF based Knight type Monsters without harmful effect and damage skills.

Application

▶ Wind Paladin has a passive that reduces the damage taken based on the Evasion. It’s extremely important to invest in some Evasion!

 

Wind Paladin

- Recovery (Based on HP), Shield(Based on HP), Provoke, Invincibility

- Get some HP and DEF to improve the survivability, and raise the ACC to protect the allies with Provoke!

- Get as much Evasion as possible to maximize the effect of the passive skill that reduces the damage taken and applies Spell Shield.

 * This Rune setup is recommended for Knight type Monsters with a powerful CC and harmful effects.

 


 

That’s all the tips on the Rune setups for defense type Monsters.

 

Be sure to check the information above and enhance your Monsters to become stronger.
