Undead Hordes
The Undead Hordes was considered the strongest faction in the early days of Raid: Shadow Legends, but a slow rate of new characters in recent years has made this one of the weakest factions for many players today. Expect limited budget options and many outdated champions to be stumbling blocks here.
For normal difficulty, this may well be the last faction you complete. There is no budget Decrease Defence option, meaning fights will be slow. You’ll likely require key epics such as Vogoth or Gorgorab to stay alive as you slowly wear down the stages.
Hard difficulty, weirdly, might well be easier for many players. Longer-term players might have powerful fusions such as Rotos or Vlad, plus the free login Ultimate Deathknight. Siphi and either Mythical are hard carries if you are lucky enough to pull them. This faction is all about pulling the strong champions, and–by the time you’ve reached hard–you should hopefully have at least some of them.

Faction Wars
We advise every player to try and progress in faction wars as soon as you can and even if you can only do early floors. Faction Wars rewards you with Forge Materials to craft artifact sets such as Perception and also incredibly valuable Glyphs which boost your sub stats on artifacts further than what you can roll.
