AFK II Journey - Important Game Mechanics
Hero Teams And Combat
In AFK II Journey, players will be able to make a team of up to 5 heroes at the same time in order to challenge the various battle stages and defeat the enemies standing in the party’s way to defeat the final boss. Once formed, players can either control the actions of the heroes themselves by interacting with the screen or let the auto battling system do all of the work for them like a typical AFK game.
When making a team of heroes, players can choose various different types of heroes, many with their unique abilities and skills, allowing for a dynamic and interesting combat system for players to enjoy.
Heroes Leveling Resonance and Ascension
Unlike other AFK titles, AFK II Journey allows players to quickly invest in their large variety of heroes and increase their power level and combat capabilities through various means, including the special Heroes Leveling Resonance and Heroes Ascension systems.
With the Hero Leveling Resonance system, players can choose 5 of the highest level heroes in your roster and put them as the base of operation. Then, players can choose up to 5 more Heroes to be the ones who will be able to resonate with the 5 highest level heroes that were chosen. Once done, all 5 low level heroes will now be able to reach the same level as the base heroes, allowing players to quickly level up different teams of 5 heroes simply by utilizing the Resonance system. In addition, all extra materials that were spent on the low level heroes will now be refunded to the players, allowing them to save resources for other heroes as well. It is important to keep in mind that the level difference between the 2 sets of 5 heroes have to not be over 10 levels, helping to ensure the game’s balance.
In addition to the hero leveling system, players can also improve the stats of heroes by using multiple copies of them and ascend the heroes to a higher rarity in the Hero Ascension system, allowing the heroes to obtain various stat boosts and may even unlock additional skills for certain characters.
Noble Tavern - Hero Recruitment
If players are to have difficulties with clearing the more challenging stages in AFK II: Journey, players should probably try and recruit brand new heroes by going to the special Noble Tavern, where players can recruit various heroes of different rarities.
The Noble Tavern is a gacha system where players will have to spend the premium currencies they will be able to obtain from clearing the journey stages in order to recruit a large number of heroes, with the higher rarity heroes being more difficult to recruit than others. This is also the place for players to obtain the duplicate copies of their obtained heroes, allowing players to ascend heroes and increase their rarity and power.
Dream Realm - Daily Rewards
Like other games, players will eventually unlock the special daily dungeons in this game known as Dream Realm, once unlocked, players will be able to challenge the dream realm and obtain large amounts of currencies and resources that can be used to upgrade the various important mechanics of the game like character levels, improving the overall power level of the team and allow players to go even further in the game’s stages.
It is important that players use these daily opportunities up daily before they reset each day, since it will allow players to accumulate a large amount of resources they will need for both the short and long term.
Gears And Artifacts
Gears are special items that heroes can equip to massively boost their combat abilities and improve their stats, with each gears providing a set amount of stats and the higher the gear’s rarity is, the more stats they will grant to the hero. Therefore, investing in gears will help players to improve the combat performance of certain heroes.
Artifacts are special items that boost the stats of all heroes and provide a universal boost in performance of the entire team. These artifacts will grant special stats and abilities to all characters, depending on which artifacts players have and upgrade. The higher the investment made, the more powerful artifacts will be and the more powerful the team will become.
AFK II Journey - Beginner’s Ultimate Tips and Tricks
Focus On Team Synergy
Various heroes have abilities that synergize well with other heroes and a team filled with heroes that synergizes well with each other will allow players to clear a large amount of stages and enemies in a very quick and efficient way. Therefore, players should absolutely focus on making teams with heroes that can use abilities and skills to help each other and to defeat the enemies as quickly as possible.
In addition, once players have made a good team that performs well in PvE stage clearing, players can also make other teams to focus on other contents such as daily dungeons, PvP and more.
Equip Your Heroes With Suitable And Powerful Gears
Heroes’ gear plays an important role in boosting individual hero’s combat performance and stats. However, certain heroes will only need certain stats depending on their role, abilities and skills. Therefore, players should pay attention to those needs to equip the heroes with suitable gears to compliment their abilities and allow them to perform better in their role.
Also, players should be conservative in upgrading gears, due to the resources cost.
Always Do Daily Quests and Dungeons
As mentioned before, the Dream Realm will limit players to a set number of clears per day, meaning that players will not be able to accumulate a large amount of resources in a single day. Therefore, players should absolutely focus on farming the Daily Dungeons as much as possible everyday by spending all of the Daily Dungeon’s attempts.
Furthermore, players should also clear daily quests everyday in order to obtain various beneficial and important currencies that they will need to use right away and in the future.
Level Up Artifacts Wisely
Different artifacts provide different buffs to the team and each of them are focused on different stats that players will need for the different contents in the game. Thus, players should choose and level up the different artifacts based on which of the contents players are more keen on and need to clear.
A recommendation is the Astral Tome, which provides players with various buffs important to PvE contents, allowing players to be able to massively boost the heroes’ abilities against enemies and allow them to clear stages much quicker.
Another recommendation is the Temporal Loop, which provides various beneficial buffs that benefits more towards PvP contents.
