FACTIONS
At this moment AFK Arena have 7 hero factions. Every unit belongs to a faction and has the ability to receive buffs due to Faction Advantage. Faction Advantage means that each hero can have 25% damage boost versus characters of a given faction.
FACTION ADVANTAGES
- Graveborn deal more damage to Lightbearers
- Lightbearers deal more damage to Maulers
- Maulers deal more damage to Wilders
- Wilders deal more damage to Graveborn
- Hypogeans deal more damage to Celestials
- Celestials deal more damage to Hypogeans
Yes, it is not an error, Hypogeans > Celestials, Celestials > Hypogeans – it is true. Kind of confusing logic, but it happens.
Heroes from Dimensional faction are not affected by factional advantages or disadvantages. They are not dealing more damage to other factions and they are not getting more damage either.
