How to Get Started in Summoners War: Chronicles

Getting into the world of Summoners War: Chronicles can be overwhelming if you haven’t played any of the previous installments before. Here’s all you need before you join in on the fun!

Gameplay Overview

In Summoners War: Chronicles, you are enlisted by the King of Rahil to protect the realm against evil forces led by sinister Tefo. You play the role of a Summoner that traverses the lush and beautiful maps of Rudelin, Tesca, Ayah, Flurence, and Rukurangma and fights all kinds of enemies with the help of a team of monsters.

Besides the main storyline and the single-player campaign, the game brings several additional modes that unlock as you progress further into the game, including:

  • Cairos—a dungeon with all six types of powers in six sections that get progressively more difficult
  • Party Dungeon—a dungeon for forming teams with other players and defeating creatures in three different sections: Seal, Rupture, and Raid
  • Battlefield—the dark forest full of evil spirits that you can fight for gold, crystals, and other valuable in-game currency
  • Arena—a place where you can square up against other players
  • Expedition—six journeys that bring significant rewards after you defeat the villains

Choosing Your Summoner

Summoners War: Chronicles lets players choose one of the three default Summoners that come from different classes and have their own unique skill sets. The options are:

  • Cleaf—A Summoner of Guard, Cleaf is a frontline player that attacks directly, wielding a mace and a shield, and protects his allies
  • Orbia—She is a Summoner of Magic and excels at ranged attacks and offensive passive effects
  • Kina—As a Summoner of Healing, she provides great support on the battlefield by healing or empowering her allies

You can make some small, cosmetic changes to these three characters, but be mindful of the class of your Summoner and how well it fits your preferred playing style.

Teaming Up With Monsters

The aspect where Summoners War: Chronicles truly shines is its gacha system with more than 350 monsters. As you progress through the game, you will encounter and summon various types of these fighting companions and choose different team configurations based on your enemies or specific quests at hand. Available monster classes include:

  • Knight
  • Warrior
  • Support
  • Mage
  • Archer
  • Assassin

They are also divided by attributes or associated elements into these categories:

  • Wind
  • Water
  • Fire
  • Light
  • Dark

Your team can contain up to three different monsters, and it is of the utmost importance to pay attention to their levels and strengths as the battle outcome will often depend on them. Our tier list of monsters in Summoners War: Chronicles can help you understand which monsters are the strongest and how to match them with your preferred Summoner.

You will make the best of the game if you build a team with a great synergy between your Summoner and supporting monsters, but make sure to switch your team up based on the quest or enemy class before you start fighting since you won’t be able to do it during the battle.

To change your active monsters, follow these instructions:

  1. Open the main menu by tapping the squares in the upper right corner
  2. Tap on Monster
  3. Choose Composition
  4. Tap the slot to remove a monster and select another one from your list to replace it

Combat System

Players in Summoners War: Chronicles can only control their Summoner, while the supporting monster team moves along. You drag and deploy your moves and abilities, and monster abilities are auto-cast.

When fighting, you have four aspects at your disposal—active abilities with a cooldown, passive abilities that are always in action, dodging, and normal attack (controlled by the central button in the combat menu). You can switch your active and passive abilities in the character menu.

Fighting different classes of monsters works based on the “rock/paper/scissors” system, and that’s where your monsters’ elements matter the most:

  • Water counters fire
  • Fire counters wind
  • Wind counters water
  • Dark and light are opposite

This is the main reason why choosing your team configuration is important and why you should switch it up regularly.

Besides monsters, your Summoner’s weapons are element-based as well, so you should pay attention to switching to the right weapon when fighting specific enemies.

  4. Tap a skill in the section you want, check out the prerequisites, and use skill points to enhance the skill in question

Summon as Many Monsters as You Can and Then Upgrade Them

To summon monsters, you will utilize the Summon Altar and monster pieces or different types of scrolls, which are, arguably, the most precious type of in-game currency. Your strategy here should be to try and get your hands on as many monsters as you can, with the hope that you will draw top-level companions from the get-go.

Since you naturally want the strongest possible team, don’t forget to level up your monsters regularly using different types of currency—at least until you obtain top-tier monsters that will bring your power levels through the roof and that you should really invest in.
