Westfall – Vultros Heroic Mission Guide

What are Heroic Missions?

Heroic missions are missions unlocked upon obtaining 50 sigils. They need to be cleared once per faction, so aim to get at least one leader per faction as you progress through the game. The heroic missions are more difficult than their non-heroic counterparts, often employing a gimmick on the map or featuring an initial push that you need to defend.

Why do Heroic Missions?

Clearing a heroic mission rewards you with 3 tomes of experience for your troops as well as a sigil upon completing it once. You need to clear them 4 more times, each with different leaders from the remaining factions. Upon clearing them, you receive 300 coins for your efforts. It is quite rewarding and will be your main source of income in the end game.

Recommended Minis

This headhunter deals massive damage with savage spear throws. Enemies in the air beware!

The Darkspear Troll is really effective on this stage because there are many Vultures that need to be eliminated. Make sure to deploy a frontline unit to protect it from Prowler , Gnoll Brute s, and Mountaineer s.

A flexible Ranged unit. Crash her into enemies or land her behind your Tanks for Area Damage support.

Pyromancer

Sometimes you need to light an enemy on fire. She prefers to light them all on fire.

Conflagrate BEST
Splash area is doubled.
Pyroblast
Deal triple damage on the first attack.
Blaze of Glory
Damage and Burn nearby enemies on death.

How to Clear

Your main objective is to survive the initial wave of minis and Vultures thrown at you at the beginning of the game. Once you have taken care of them, initiate a counter-push on the right tower to free up the gold mine and treasure chest in that area. Upon capturing the tower, defend it with a minimal force while focusing your deployments on the left side to conquer the tower there. Once occupied, you will gain access to another gold mine. You can either execute a split push or proceed with a push straight down one lane. Vultros should fall easily once you have control of both towers.
