(TIPS) How do you maximize the effects of Chief Gear and Chief Charm?
These tips can help you maximize the upgrading benefits tips are the followings:
TIP1: Which Chief Gear and Charm Should Be Upgraded First?
- Make sure you upgrade the chief gear and charm in the following order:
- Chief Gear and Charm Of Infantry (Coat, Pant)
- MarksMan (Ring, Weapon)
- Lancer (Hat, Watch)
Infantry:
The infantry is the most important part of your troops, and they fight on the front line and deal the most damage and losses.
Making them powerful by upgrading them first will strengthen your frontline troops, and they can deal more damage.
Marksman:
Marksman deal the most damage and are more powerful than any other troops. Make sure you prioritize them after the infantry to increase your attack power and deal more damage to the enemy players.
Lancer:
You can upgrade Lancer in the end, and upgrading them after the infantry and lancers will be a huge power boost for your troops.
TIP2: Craft Chief Gear And Chief Charm
As soon as you unlock the chief gear and chief charm, make sure you craft all of them, and it will add a huge bonus to your troops. You can upgrade them later on in an order, but craft all of them at first.
TIP3: Uniformity Bonus
I have added screenshots for you to understand this part; chief gears have uniformity bonuses that add extra bonuses to troops. I will try to keep it as simple as possible.
As you see in screenshots, these circle icons, with 3 points and 6 points, represent the 6 chief gears.
- If you have 3 purple chief gears, it will turn purple and activate the purple bonuses.
- If you have 6 purple, gold, or blue colors, the 6-point circle will change color accordingly and unlock bonuses accordingly.
Make sure you change their colors by upgrading chief gears and get the most out of this chief gear upgrade.
In Whiteout Survival Heroes also have gears that boost their power, and to learn more about hero gears, you can read my guide on Whiteout Survival Hero Gears.
