Greetings, Heroes,
We hope you’re enjoying your adventure in the lands of Terrinoth®! Whether you’re a seasoned tactical RPG player or Terrinoth®: Heroes of Descent is your very first, here are 5 tips you can use during your playthroughs:
Exploit enemy weaknesses Every enemy you encounter comes with its own set of resistances and vulnerabilities. Learning how to identify and exploit them is key to overcoming tougher encounters. While at camp, you’ll be able to preview the most effective skills for the dungeon ahead - use this information to carefully assemble a team that can fully capitalize on enemy weaknesses!
Leverage the environment The battlefield itself can become one of your greatest assets. With the right abilities, you can push enemies off cliffs or into hazards for instant eliminations. Positioning also plays a crucial role: attacking from higher ground increases your effective range, while attacking from below reduces accuracy. Smart positioning can make all the difference.
Unleash Synergy Attacks Each character possesses unique synergy skills: powerful abilities capable of turning the tide of battle. To use them, you’ll need to fill a shared synergy gauge across your team. This can be achieved not only by defeating enemies, but also by supporting your allies with buffs and healing, encouraging a more strategic and cooperative playstyle.
Make smart use of items As you explore and complete dungeons, you’ll acquire a variety of items. These can be used in combat to heal your team or deal additional damage when needed. Don’t forget you can equip new items directly within the dungeon you found them in. Back at camp, you’ll also have access to a shop where you can purchase essential supplies to prepare for future challenges.
Chain powerful combos Each character brings a unique set of abilities with distinct tactical advantages - such as rooting enemies in place or dealing increased damage to isolated targets. Combining these abilities across your team is key to maximizing your damage output. If needed, you can also adjust your characters’ initiative order, allowing you to execute effective combos with greater control. But reordering your initiative can only be done once per combat round.
