I am level 54. So far I managed to collect: - Stryker 3* 5/100 purple - Helena 3* 32/100 purple - Pixie 3* 36/100 purple - Merlin 3* 0/100 purple - Trinity 2* 49/50 purple - Centaur 2* 47/50 purple - Gable 2* 35/50 purple - Perseus 2* 1/50 purple - Igor 2* 6/50 purple - Fiesty 2* 16/50 purple
- Naga 3* 7/100 blue +2 eq - Tristan 2* 3/50 blue + 2 eq - Grump 1* 6/20 blue + 2 eq
All heroes are lvl 54, except for Grump who is 46. Right now I want to get Centaur and Trinity to 3*, and later get Alexander and Cyclops. My arena rank is 870-900. I manage to clear Sky Arena fully 50% of the time 40% up to castle and 10% I can't progress over castle 6. My question is as follows: Am I doing things correct? If there are any better heroes let me know, and please give any suggestions for the future. Who should I develop to 4*, or who to give up on. Any advice is welcome.

If you want to clear sky arena, you need more self-sustain heroes, like Dracula. You can borrow heroes from your guild to help you. With your current team, I advice you to use - Helena - Merlin (very usefull purple skill on sky arena) - Trinity (second heal and nice controls, but i prefear aqua, better heal and lock enemy helena turn 1) - Stryker (good ranged dps, but personally i use cyclops or Pei, excellent sustain on sky arena) - Dracula / Pegasus borrow Yves and Hyperia are good options too, nice tanking/sustain Pixie's good too, do nice work but didnt survive more than 2 or 3 stage. I didnt use centaur but im sure he's a good tank and good controller on sky arena, but you need a good mobility/dps heroes with (like dracula ou Pegasus) If i can help you

Here is my advice on your team. Also, for sky strategies & team building check out this postYour best Sky team: (CC & Healing) - Helena 3* 32/100 purple - Pixie 3* 36/100 purple - Merlin 3* 0/100 purple - Trinity 2* 49/50 purple - Centaur 2* 47/50 purple Keep Leveled to sub in: - Gable 2* 35/50 purple - Perseus 2* 1/50 purple - Naga 3* 7/100 blue +2 eq Leave behind - (Most people don't use these heroes): - Stryker 3* 5/100 purple - Tristan 2* 3/50 blue + 2 eq (some like his stun in Sky) - Grump 1* 6/20 blue + 2 eq - Igor 2* 6/50 purple - Fiesty 2* 16/50 purple Other heroes you may consider leveling up in the future: Dracula Aqua Cyclops Alexander Pyre Pei Finally, try to keep your main heroes all around the same rating, and don't level their useless skills yet. That will keep your oppoents ratings lower allowing you to progress further. Keep your Hero ratings low!
In order to ensure that you are assigned easier opponents, it is critical to keep all of your preferred heroes at a similar rating, including heroes that are not used for Sky Arena. Do not upgrade any specific hero higher than the rest. Keep track of who are your highest 5 heroes and don't upgrade them. When you do need to promote or equip items, make sure all 5 heroes can be upgraded at the same time. Don't upgrade all 4 skills on a single hero unless it directly helps sky arena. For Example, Cooperation is rarely useful and only inflates your hero rating, leading to stronger opponents

Thank you all for your help I managed to star up Trinity and Centaur, and now setting myself on Dracula and Alexander. Cyclops will come right after. Unfortunately I keep almost all of my skills at max allowed level so my last sky arena opponents are usually 68-70 level which is doable but very tough.

Well I am pretty amazed to hear that Alexander sucks. I know that co-op is useless without grump and tristan and his purple skill isn't the best either, but isn't the heal worth it anyway?

The heal makes him one of the best sky arena heroes in my opinion, especially if you're keeping your ratings low as you only really need his heal leveled to stay competive

Is viable even on 2 stars though? I mean compared to rest of the 3 stars lineup. I can have him(2 stars) in about 5 days from now, but farming him to 3 is pretty hard since there is no legend node for him :/

Even at 2 star he is a great tank if you pair him with Helena and trinity for heals every round. as for developing him if you use arena tokens for Alexander exclusively then he shouldn't be too difficult to get 3 stars.

Helena and trinity provide overall utility to the team. Utility that Alexander can barely provive, and only at turn 3..
He's more of a solo characted, great defensive stats, great self-heal (yes self, cause the aoe isnt that decent), but he just fails miserably at everything else

And sure, HE IS good at sky arena, I can tell you that, but then you have aqua, trinity and helena, who can do so much more for a team and in many other game modes, comparing to what Alex can provide My 2 cents.

he's good to accompany squishier heroes as he's likely to draw attention up front and he's quite durable quite sure you'd rather have him take hits than trinity or such pairing with tristan is a bonus (but grump is too slow to coop much unless you face a faster team)
and as stated he only needs heal leveled so don't need to sink much money in (+ his heal damages undead you'll undoubtedly run into) also always available in arena so shouldn't be too hard to get up in star levels either

I was also very disapointed with alexander. He is not very tanky(not as tanky as he should be), and his heal is a self heal as said above. He will also damage undead characters on your team if they are to close. But my real problem with Alex is that he does 0 damage compared to how much damage he takes.

Alex is just decent for your sky arena team but fails at everything else.
He proves no threat in arena defense team and his ulti doesnt hurt enough to be in your attacking setup. Never need his heal in the only guild boss raid atm. His coop skill cant hurt boss when grouped with the other partners. Melee units either get stunned or pushed back and the safe spot cant hold 3 units there.
Overall usage is low atm but with sky arena being the only mode where you spend the most time with it may still be worth using him.
