Best Build for Hendrik in AFK Arena (Artifacts, Furniture, Signature Item, Emblems)

If you want to make Hendrik perform at peak performance in AFK Arena, you need to run the right built. While many players think simply maxing out will do the trick (well, not too wrong), there are certain sweetspots with Hendrik that will give a big boost so I have some recommendations below that you will very likely find interesting.

Important! If you want to check how well Hendrik does in the current meta of all heroes in AFK Arena, please check out my current tier list of all heroes here.

  • HendrikBFull Tier List
    Here is a quick overview of the rankings of Hendrik for the different modes of the game. Please refer to the full tier list linked below to see the ranking of all heroes in AFK Arena and full evaluation and priority.Campaign: BTower: SNightmare Corridor: CCursed Realm: CFull Tier List

Hendrik’s Signature Item

Signature Item
Hendrik's Signature Item should be at +10. Getting his Signature Item +10 is absolutely worth it, the buff is nice and purple emblems are worth investing in. But don't do more, the +20 is pretty much useless, and unless you're swimming in emblems (what you obv. don't), his +30 far too expensive for the return value.. If you want to learn more about the recommended priority how you should invest into Signature Items in AFK Arena, check out our priority guide.

Furniture Recommendation

Furniture Set
Overall we recommend to get Hendrik's -/9 furniture set bonus. Hendrik's placement and defense buff are okay but overall too niche to really invest here. If you want to learn more about in what order to unlock your heroes furniture sets, check out our Furniture Priority Guide.

Engraving

Engravings are an important part for Hendrik and this is probably the main reason why you’re here on this page. Below you will find the optimal Engraving Levels as well as our recommended route how to invest in the Engravings as you normally don’t just have the cores lying around just waiting to max out an Engraving for a hero.

In the case of Hendrik you don’t have to invest into any Engravings when we talk about the absolute MINIMAL INVESTMENT to make this hero work. The RECOMMENDED INVESTMENT (the investment you should have in order to be able to make the hero work well enough), which is E0 and for those of you who really want to make Hendrik shine the MAXIMUM INVESTMENT (the one that makes sense, there is literally no need to invest further unless you’re a PvP whale and drop a ton of money on the game), which is E30.

The more interesting part, however, is the order how to invest your cores in the different nodes, right? Well, below you will find the perfect order to invest the cores in (simply follows the numbers – the colors of the numbers will show you if this is optimal=green or maximum=blue investment). This helps you invest your cores in the most efficient and economic way and get the most of of them with Hendrik:

Recommended Artifacts & Collection

If you are not that progressed in AFK Arena and don’t have access to the collections from the Goulish Gallery, Here are the artifacts that you can possible run with Hendrik. Please keep in mind that collections are the future so you will need to build them and use them sooner or later to progress to the later content in the game. This is more for earlier players or backups if you can’t use the recommended collection!

Now that artifacts got replaced by the collections in the Ghoulish Gallery, this whole section requires a lot more effort in building the correct collection type with the ideal substats – this lets you fine-tune heroes a lot better but also requires more details in order to work well.

Right now there is not much reason to build a collection item for Hendrik in the Goulish Gallery. I might add the setup when it is time but right now there are so many other heroes that require that and Hendrik is not really one of them at this point. Stick to the artifact and you will be alright unless you are top 1% of all the players, so to speak.

Conclusion

I hope this guide helped you to build your Hendrik correctly without wasting resources but also to make sure to get the best performance of the hero.
