Best Investment Milestones for Carolina

To give you a little bit of thought process behind our guide – in general every hero has their best performance when totally maxed out. But you can’t max out every hero since the resources are very limited so what we did is taking the strenght of all Hero Focus Levels and EX Weapon Levels along the cost of investment and how good a hero is in the different game modes together which indicates you which investment have HIGH value and which ones won’t.

This also means there are certain milestones of investments, basically levels of EX Weapon that will provide valuable stats for a relatively small inestment. We spent weeks of testing and calculating on dozens of accounts to find out the investments that are worth it for every particular hero but also in relation to the bigger picture – means a hero that is used in many game modes is more valuable than one that shines in only one mode.

Here are the investment milestones we recomment for Carolina right now:

Hero Focus
Hero Focus Although this can be debatable I recommend it. She is a hero that will bloom late and you will unlikely tough her early or even mid-game in AFK Journey, She starts her role with control effects and debuffing, not damage, in Eironn control teams. Only a lot later you will see her deal significant damage with her snowballs where this will have an effect. So, if you're tight on blue emblems and you haven't assembled your Eironn team already you can also leave her Hero Focus until you have her EX Weapon
Goal:
Level 3
EX+5
EX Weapon - 1st Milestonethis is for sure an important spot for her investment as it will make her use her snowballs a lot more frequently which is not ust the damage, which is not that heavy, but will add up (or should I say... snowballs) into a good chunk
Goal:
EX+5
EX+8
EX Weapon - 2nd Milestoneis a good next spot since the invest of yellow emblems is not that high and you make her gain some important base stats that primarily help her survive when the level deficits get higher so the likelyhood of her getting one-shotted by an assassin is a lot lower and she needs less protection
Goal:
EX+8
EX+10
EX Weapon - Final Investmenther important role is debuffing enemies along control them with her freeze and constantly decreasing their magic DEF through snowballs by an additional 10% is a lot in the teams where you will use her and an investment absolutely worth it
Goal:
EX+10

Magic Charms for Carolina

Magic Charms is the first stage of customizing your hero as you can strengthen certain attributes that will turn the tides a ton here. I don’t want to get into too much detail but if you want to know the whole strategy behind it I highly recommend our Magic Charm guide here.

The main idea here is that you will randomly get Magic Charms that are bound to your hero so it can take months to get the perfect ones – in the meantime you want to equip those that work as well as possible so you can get the Magic Charm skill active and get the best performance of your hero at the same time.

The recommended Magic Charms inside the game are based on normal game modes, but for Dream Realm and PvP modes you need different charms, that’s what we tested and what our recommendations are based on and this can change the outcome by a lot.

Magic Charms for Carolina to use in Story and non-PvP Modes

For the most parts the recommendations work. Please mind, in Season 1 you can mix them since the bonus was besd on the rarity of your magic charms. In Season 2 there is no Season Skill anymore, so the balancing comes more from the Magic Charms and you need to make a full set of the same to make the set bonus so there is less possibilities to actualy fine-tune:

In Season 1 you want to use Arcane, Arcane and Butcher.

In Season 2 you want to make your set bonus using all 3 Arcane Charms.

Magic Charms for Carolina to use in Dream Realm + Bosses

Bosses, espcially Dream Realm, benefit a lot more from different Magic Charms and this can easily ramp up your total admage by 1B or even more.

Magic Charms for Carolina to use in Arena + PvP Modes

In PvP you deal with different team setups, burst and cc effects and need different Magic Charms to suceed:
