To reroll in Knighthood, start on an unlinked guest account, play through the opening Astellan tutorial battles until you unlock the Stronghold Vault, and claim your starter rewards from the in-game mailbox. A single run takes about 10 to 15 minutes. If your initial Hero Chest summons fail to yield strong Rare or Epic heroes, reset your game data and repeat the process before binding your account.
Setting Up a Guest Account
Always begin on a guest account. If you bind your profile to Google Play, Apple Game Center, or an email on initial boot, that identity remains tied to your first roll. Unlinking or deleting a registered account requires submitting requests that take multiple days to clear, halting your ability to restart immediately.
Skip character appearance customization during initial Knight creation. You can adjust hair, facial features, skin tone, and armor styling later at the Stronghold mirror without spending premium currency. Selecting default options immediately gets you into combat faster.
Speeding Up Astellan Tutorial Battles
The Astellan prologue requires clearing eight to ten scripted battle nodes before the Stronghold opens. To cut clear times:
- Buffer Text and Map Nodes: Tap the bottom of the screen during dialogue prompts to advance text instantly. On the realm map, tap the next combat node right away to skip ambient camera movement.
- Focus Down Targets Sequentially: Direct your strikes at one enemy until it falls. Eliminating an enemy early prevents it from acting, which skips its turn animation and reduces incoming damage.
- Clear Front-Line Blockers: Front-line minions block normal melee strikes from reaching back-line enemies. Burn down the weakest front-line unit first, then hit the back row with carryover attacks or Hero Powers.
Managing Action Points and Rage
Each turn provides four Action Points to split between weapon attacks and Knight Gauntlet punches:
- Four-Hit Weapon Chains: Standard weapon strikes deal the highest base damage against early Goblin and Outlaw foes. Landing four consecutive weapon hits triggers a chain finisher on the final strike, which deals heavy bonus damage and regularly finishes front-line enemies in a single turn.
- Gauntlet Punches for Rage: Punches inflict less damage than weapons but fill your Gauntlet's Rage Meter. Use punches primarily when you need to charge a Hero Rage Power to wipe out an incoming wave.
Opening Starter Chests at the Vault
Completing the prologue returns your Knight to the Stronghold and unlocks the Vault. Before summoning, open your in-game mailbox to collect all launch rewards, milestone gems, and starter chest keys.
| Chest Type | Contents | Reroll Priority | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hero Chest | Rare, Epic, and Legendary Hero Shards | Highest | Provides the core units needed for campaign progression. |
| Equipment Chest | Weapons and Armor (Common to Epic) | Moderate | Upgrades basic gear and provides weapon types for stage advantages. |
| Customization Chest | Cosmetic skins and dyes | Lowest | Offers no combat stats or gameplay utility. |
Spend your keys on Hero Chests. Look for high-utility Rare or Epic heroes—such as early healers like Titania or direct damage units like Tristan—to handle the campaign curve through Astellan and Mirefen. Because tutorial runs take up to 15 minutes, chasing a low-rate Legendary hero is impractical; stopping on a reliable Epic or high-value Rare provides a functional baseline.
Resetting vs. Binding the Account
Evaluate your Hero Chest results before taking any further action:
- When to Keep: If you secure an impactful Rare or Epic hero, open the in-game settings menu and bind your profile to Google Play or Apple Game Center to secure your progress.
- How to Reset (Android): Close Knighthood, open your device's application settings, find Knighthood, and clear both app data and cache. Relaunch the app to begin a fresh guest profile.
- How to Reset (iOS): Uninstall and reinstall the game from the App Store, or use the in-game account deletion option in the settings menu if available on your client version. Confirm you are playing as a guest upon relaunching.
