Best Hero Pairing for Tien

Cecilia Schafer – Her massive healing, fleet buffs and enemy rage debuff amplify Tien’s control role while keeping the whole ship alive (See full build here). Laila – She adds universal attack buffing, rage restore and emergency protection that let Tien’s debuffs turn into longer fights you win (See full build here). Cordelia – Her healing and dispel are perfect alongside Tien because they keep your crew stable while his debuffing weakens the enemy (See full build here). Linea – She brings strong healing, damage reduction and attack buffing, making her an ideal support partner for a Tien-led ship (See full build here). Elizabeth Sheen – Her heal plus percentage damage reduction stacks cleanly with Tien’s enemy debuffs to create a very hard-to-kill crew (See full build here). Tigrand – His fleetwide damage reduction pairs well with Tien’s ATK debuff to cut enemy pressure from both sides (See full build here). Obi – Aggro pull and damage reduction make him a classic defensive flagship partner that lets Tien safely do his job (See full build here). Magnus – His shield and aggro kit fits a Tien support setup by soaking pressure while the enemy is weakened (See full build here). Kenshiro – His heavy mitigation and reflect effects make him a strong frontline anchor for a Tien-based defensive ship (See full build here).

Best Ship Parts

Ship Parts in Sea of Conquest belong to different sets and have random stats on them and although you equip them on your ships, they need to compliment the heroes you*re using. So, when runngin Tien these are the sets you should aim for:

But there is more you have to mind! Every Ship Part, depending on the rarity, will get several attributes that are randomly assigned when collecting it – and they are so important and just the right set means nothing without the fitting stats on it. Before you upgrade ANY ship part, make sure to check here if it has stats that fit:
