Best Builds

  • PvP build: use Amadeus only when your troop type, gear, and partner hero support the same combat plan.
  • PvE build: prioritize consistent clears, stable rally value, and event utility before niche damage setups.
  • F2P build: delay heavy investment until Amadeus's shard sources fit your account.

Best Pairings

  • Alcar: similar Infantry or Combat role for formation testing.
  • Amane: similar Cavalry or Combat role for formation testing.
  • Ava: similar Marksman or Combat role for formation testing.
  • Use pairings that improve the same battle purpose instead of mixing unrelated bonuses.

Formation Tips

  • Match Amadeus with Infantry research and gear where possible.
  • Do not judge a formation by power alone; check whether the frontline, damage, and support roles work together.
  • Test before spending rare shards or speedups.

Upgrade Priority

  • Upgrade Amadeus when the hero is part of your main march or solves a specific PvP, PvE, or event bottleneck.
  • Check source availability before using universal shards.
  • Keep buildings, research, and gear aligned with the hero plan.

Common Mistakes

  • Upgrading only because the hero is Legendary.
  • Ignoring troop type and formation role.
  • Spending shards before checking related heroes and source access.

Story

Amadeus is an incredible swordsman in both speed and power. His twin swords are fast enough, some say, to split a river in two. That seems unbelievable until you witness him for yourself.

On the outside, Amadeus is quiet. Rough. But underneath his dark exterior lies a heart of gold.

Perhaps because Amadeus' adoptive father understood that about him so well that he was allowed Amadeus to accompany him on his outlaw adventures. While Amadeus' advice may be unreliable, his swordsmanship never let the League down. Amadeus' strengths would soon be put to the test in unfamiliar territory: town.

He is stopped immediately by Jabel, a cavalrywoman shocked he would enter so openly with a bounty on his head. And also that such a bounty could lie on the head of one so young. But Amadeus was determined.

Duty was calling. The air became thick with the possibility of a fight... until someone finally intervened.

A great shield between the two defused the tension at last. The group that Amadeus had been part of through his father is the "Unjust League", widely condemned as a criminal organization. Its leader, "Robin Hood", is regarded as an outlaw, particularly by the nobility for his fondness for robbing the wealthy.

That is what the townsfolk found so intriguing about Amadeus' openness. There was a certain courage and honesty on the part of the young man. One might have expected such a notorious outlaw would be shunned.

Yet the town cautiously welcomed him as he went about his day. For his part, Amadeus made sure any friendly service was met with equally friendly and prompt payment. What a surprise!

  • Amadeus found himself wondering: Could this town be truly as wise and fair as they say? Perhaps there is an oasis to be carved out in this lawless world? "What do you think?

If she's always coming up with reasons to bother you? If she's always finding excuses to watch you? I say it's very interesting.

I say it's the hallmarks of a shy girl." But Quinn would always say that, the self-proclaimed warrior-poet and expert on love. Amadeus looked back at Quinn blankly.

  • Quinn quickly added: "Think about it: a cavalrywoman of principle. An outlaw with a heart of gold? Well?

You two have promise." Meanwhile, Seth was furiously scribbling the conversation down in one of his diaries. Quinn's table conversation was interrupted by a flying pitcher.

"I think we've all drunk enough for one evening, eh? Time for some fun." "Finally!"

So another bar fight began.

FAQ

Is Amadeus worth upgrading?

Amadeus is worth upgrading when you need a infantry combat hero and can support the investment with shards, formation partners, and gear.

What is Amadeus best for?

Amadeus is usually best judged by Infantry formations, main march upgrades, long-term investment planning rather than rarity alone.

Is Amadeus F2P friendly?

Check the source list before spending universal shards. Moderate shard access makes Amadeus easier to evaluate for F2P or low-spend accounts.
