Gold Management in King Arthur – Top Tips
Gold is an essential resource in King Arthur: Legend Rise, necessary for nearly every aspect of progression. Whether you’re upgrading buildings, levelling champions, enhancing their skills or relics, forging and upgrading gear, or shopping in the market, you’ll find yourself constantly needing more gold.
For new players, the game’s demanding economy can be harsh, often leading to frustration. However, with proper preparation, knowledge, and strategic choices, you can manage your gold effectively and reduce some of the stress.
This guide will explore the primary sources of gold, strategies to be efficient in your stamina usage, and the best ways to invest your hard-earned resources to ensure the best for your progression.
Farming Gold: Your Key to Success
When it comes to farming gold efficiently, the Burning Land in the Power-Up Dungeons is your best bet. While you can collect gold in small amounts during your campaigns in Story Mode and Adventure, these methods are going to be more collateral than a choice. To maximize efficiency, prioritize building a solid team capable of defeating Gorgos at Stage 10 consistently—and, ideally, quickly.
The Challenge of Gorgos
Gorgos, the boss of the Burning Land dungeon, specializes in Damage over Time (DoT) effects. His abilities frequently apply Scorch to your entire team, and he detonates these debuffs to inflict massive damage. Without proper preparation, Gorgos can wipe out your party in no time.
The key to success is removing these debuffs consistently while applying your own DoT to take him down. Thankfully, some accessible champions can help you in this challenge.
Required Heroes
Djerit: Your DoT Cleanser
The cornerstone of any successful team for Gorgos is Djerit, an Uncommon champion who excels in removing DoTs. His Frost Relic is essential for maximizing his effectiveness, as other affinities will significantly reduce his proficiency in this dungeon.
Skill 2: Removes 1 DoT (or 2 when fully upgraded) from all allies and grants a Crit Rate Increase.
Passive Ability: Boosts Effect Accuracy and increases allies’ Attack Gauge when a DoT is removed, allowing your team to take more turns and land debuffs more consistently.
Djerit’s status as an Uncommon champion makes him relatively easy to level up, rank up, and to collect copies to increase his Chivalry. Increasing his Chivalry level provides crucial survivability and additional stats, which become a massive help in later stages. Equip Djerit with a Vigor Set to ensure he can use Skill 2 every turn, making him the backbone of your team.
Anguish: The DoT Specialist
Anguish, a Rare champion rewarded on your 13th login day, is another key hero. While his abilities are largely tailored for the Burning Land dungeon, he’s a worthwhile investment for tackling Gorgos.
Skill 3: Applies Chill debuffs through a multi-hit attack.
Passive Ability: Increases DoT Taken by enemies, amplifying damage from debuffs.
When you reach Chivalry Level 8 with Anguish, he also applies Bleeds, further accelerating your farming speed. Equip him as well with a Vigor Set to maximize his Skill 3 usage, focusing on survivability stats, speed, and Effect Accuracy to land the debuffs. As you progress, consider switching to a Corrosion Set, which applies two additional random DoTs to enemies.
Support Champions
To complement Djerit and Anguish, fill the remaining slots with support champions equipped with Frost Relics. Ideal choices include:
Isolde or Sarah: Reliable healers who can keep your team alive, as long as you’ve summoned their Frost Relic.
Merlin (if available): A Legendary hero with powerful skills and a useful Defense Aura. While helpful, Merlin is not essential to defeating Stage 10.
With this setup, even the higher stages of the Burning Land dungeon become manageable, allowing you to farm gold efficiently.
Gold Management: Spend Smarter, Not Harder
Now that you know how to farm gold, let’s discuss how to manage it effectively. Proper gold management is critical to long-term success, as the costs of upgrading champions, relics, and gear can quickly deplete your resources.
Champion Investments
Levelling, advancing, and awakening champions and relics are unavoidable expenses. However, it’s crucial to invest wisely. Focus on champions who provide a strong return on investment, while focusing on one champion at the time. Use reset tokens strategically to recover resources from champions who no longer fit your strategy, as these tokens are relatively rare.
Improving Chivalry, while benefiting the overall player power and bringing stats through Achievement Bonuses, can progressively become more costly and spiral out of control. Collecting copies of Common and Uncommon in particular is going to be fairly regular, due to how accessible the summoning tickets are. Eventually you will want to upgrade them all at the highest chivalry as possible, but in the early stages your gold will be better focus on key caracter, as unlocking some high chivalry can cost in the porter of hundreds of thousands gold!
Gear: A Double-Edged Sword
Gear is one of the most resource-intensive aspects of the game. In the early stages, you’ll accumulate numerous low-rarity gear pieces, such as 2-star and 3-star common and uncommon sets. Resist the temptation to upgrade every piece, as they will be quickly outclassed as you progress.
Key Tips for Gear Management
Prioritize Main Stats: Avoid upgrading gear with flat HP, DEF, or ATK as the main stats, except for Helmets, Chests, and Boots.
Focus on Essential Pieces: Only invest in gear that significantly boosts your team’s power and allows you to clear challenging content.
Cost Awareness: Upgrading gear is expensive, especially at higher levels:
- 4-star gear (to Level 12): 300,000 gold.
- 5-star gear (to Level 12): 505,500 gold.
- 6-star gear (to Level 12): 775,500 gold.
Even with efficient gold farming at Gorgos Stage 10, earning 113,000 gold per run, the costs for gear leveling can add up quickly. Be selective about which pieces you level to conserve resources.
