One Free to Play Team to Rule Them All

Looking to add the mighty Monkey King, Sun Wukong, to your Dragonheir: Silent Gods roster? You’re not alone! This highly sought-after hero is finally within reach for free-to-play players but there’s a catch. You’ll need to conquer some serious dungeon challenges first. Don’t worry, though. We’ve got the perfect guide to help you claim this legendary fighter without breaking a sweat (or your wallet).

Let’s break it down, step by step, so you can start swinging that staff like the king himself!

First things first, to unlock Sun Wukong, you’ll need to:

• Complete Stage 8 of three specific dungeons: Grave of Venom, Grave of Curse, and Grave of Wrath.
• Defeat the Faymeander on Stage 60.

These might sound daunting, especially for free-to-play players, but here’s the good news: one single free-to-play team can handle all of these requirements. That’s right, you won’t need a roster full of high-tier legendaries to get it done.

And don’t forget the Inner Demon challenge, unlocked by progressing through the story quest. This challenge not only provides daily rewards but also grants you access to an exclusive artifact and another guaranteed legendary. Daily attempts are key here, so don’t skip out!

Here’s the powerhouse squad that will take you through every dungeon stage required for Sun Wukong:

• Garius (Tank)

  The backbone of your team. Garius is your best tank option, capable of soaking up tons of damage. If you can gear him up with better artifacts, great—but even with modest equipment, he gets the job done.

• Vinyara (Free Legendary Support)

  Vinyara is a free legendary you can earn by joining an active alliance and hitting 2,000 contribution points. She’s excellent for buff stealing, debuffing, and lowering the boss’s attack—especially critical in Grave of Curse.

• Voresh (Debuffer)

  A must-have epic unit, Voresh applies essential debuffs that stop bosses from going on a rampage and empower Sigrid. Equip him with Witch’s Remains to include Defense Down as one of those debuffs. But if that’s not available, Crown of the Unclean works as a solid alternative.

• Sigrid (Rare DPS/Heal Reduction)

  The free rare unit you get on day one, Sigrid is a secret weapon. She dishes out excellent damage and applies crucial Heal Reduction, especially useful in the Grave of Wrath where bosses try to heal up mid-fight.

• Catherine (Healer & Cleanser)

  While Estella is a strong healer alternative, Catherine brings added value with shields, healing, and immunity. Perfect for handling boss debuffs like Healing Prohibition and Poisons in the Grave of Wrath.

Grave of Venom

• The boss here deals massive damage, especially with minions alive.
• Strategy: Focus on debuffs with Voresh and use Sigrid’s AoE potential to wipe minions quickly. Vinyara’s energy reduction on the boss delays its dangerous skills.
• Bonus Tip: Don’t forget to use food buffs from your camp to increase accuracy and defense—it makes a difference!

Grave of Curse

• This boss self-buffs with Increased Attack, which can be deadly if not handled.
• Strategy: Vinyara and Voresh shine here by stripping buffs and applying Attack Penalty. Without these debuffs, the boss’s damage skyrockets.
• Watch out: If the boss deals too much damage, it gains a shield, slowing your progress.

Grave of Wrath

• This boss has a unique mechanic where it devours your tank and can heal unless Heal Reduction is active.
• Strategy: Sigrid’s Heal Reduction is essential to stop the boss from regaining HP while chomping on your tank. Catherine’s immunity keeps debuffs like Healing Prohibition at bay, maintaining your healing potential.
• Don’t forget: Use food that boosts attack here, as this fight is more about damage output than pure survivability.

The same team used for these dungeons is strong enough to tackle other content too, like the Ooze Boss in story mode. Swapping Catherine for Estella can help if you’re struggling here. Defeating the Ooze Boss not only gives you another notch in your belt, but also unlocks Eurion, another valuable addition to your roster—plus it nets you another mythical artifact!

• Skill Up Wisely: Prioritize skill-ups on Garius, Voresh, and Catherine. Don’t worry if you invested wrongly, you can reset skills within the first few days!
• Stay Social: Join an active alliance to unlock Vinyara quickly. Don’t waste time in a dead alliance; those contribution points matter!
• Use Food Buffs: Seriously, they can make or break your run. Extra attack, defense, or accuracy can push your team over the line.

With this free-to-play team and some careful strategy, claiming the Monkey King, Sun Wukong, is well within your grasp. It’s not just about flexing the new hero either—you’ll have a versatile squad capable of tackling a wide range of content in Dragonheir: Silent Gods.
