You can check our full Heroes List and their troop skills, but for easier reading we have compiled a list of the heroes to concentrate on for the different useful bonuses.

Gathering

These buffs will increase the speed at which you can gather in the world. Useful for your development and especially for completing the gathering events that occur each week.

Troop Size

These skill will Increase the maximum number of troops you can send in a march. This is one of the easiest ways to improve your combat level against any enemies and tackle the higher level zombie lairs.

Rally Size

Increase the number of troops you can hold from other members when you initiate a rally. For attacking lairs, or rallies against enemies in events such as the Reservoir war or the Sonic Decoy the larger your rally size the more damage you can do.

Production

Another great development buff, these will increase the rate of production of resources in your sanctuary. Resources are the key to upgrades and the quicker you can gain them the better.

Healing

Through lairs or events you will lose troops to the Infirmary. These buffs will help yo get them back faster and make sure you have more room to cope with losses.

Research

Research can be a slow and expensive, but there are a few buffs are available to help speed up your research progress and to help reduce the resource costs for them.

Building

Upgrading the buildings is also a grind but it is vital to improve your strength, abilities and stats. Unlock these heroes skills to give yourself some speed and resource cost boosts.

Training

You can never have too many troops. And there are many events that reward you for training or fighting so make the most of these skills to speed up the training or reduce the costs so you can benefit.

Stamina

A very useful buff from McCarty. This will reduce the amount of stamina you need to spend on each lair or zombie attack. Along with the research and talents to speed up stamina replenishment you will be able to attack more zombies each day and earn many more rewards.

Combat

These are general combat buffs, which are similar to the ones given by the military hears, but these are passive. This means that just by owning the hero (with the skills unlocked) you will gain the buffs on any formation that you send out. You do not need to use the hero in a formation for it to take effect.
