Skill Order
Upgrading the skills of your hero is probably the part where you can gain the most value – or optimize value – since higher skill level upgrade their abilities linear (for example gain 5% of stats per level) but the costs are getting higher and higher. We have designed ideal upgrade sweetspots for every player that will help you pick how far you should upgrade your hero without overspending. That means you can use resources for other heroes that you might have invested in skills not really needed for your cause.

This is the universally agreed-upon optimal sweetspot for players running pure flying formations like Celestials or Wyvern Riders. By skipping her second skill and maxing Beautiful Sky, you immediately inject a massive 20% defense, 10% attack, and 20% march speed increase into your air squad for a fraction of the token cost

Best Troop Types
Theia doesn’t care about troop types at all and if you run her in the open field, you pair her as the secondary hero so take whatever troops type your primary hero requires. Later when you expertised her, you run her in a supportive legion so troops types aren’t that important there either. The only exception is if you pair her with a flying hero like Kregg or Atheus, then you want to use flying units.
Best Hero Pairing for Theia
Ffraegar is, in my humble opinion, the best pairing with Theia as you can make use of Ffraegars logn range skill and Theia adds a lot of sustain to the damage-heavy kit of Ffraegar (See full build here).
Forondil also works incredibly well with Theia as you can make use of their flying capabilities, the whole synergy is there and also vacalry just struggles with survivability which Theia bumps up a lot (See full build here).
Atheus is also a flying unit that you can combine well with Theia and flying units if your faction is league of Order as their special flying are pretty strong and with the support build below you will get an incredibly strong pairing as Atheus will help generate more rage constantly. I recommend running Theia as the primary hero unless you have your Atheus a lot further upgraded (See full build here).
Kregg is the other flying hero in the game have great cross-synergies and buff each other up. They are a mutual pairing and you will start using Kregg as primary hero unless you have Theia leveled up higher. You should be Wilderburg to use the special flying unit (See full build here).
Madeline is a very tanky legion with Theia, especially as Madeline will be able to trigger the buff from Theias’s passive skill that triggers each time the legion gets a shield. Not a pairing for the average player, though (See full build here).
Liliya also works well with Theia even though you cannot really make much use of the flying aspect (See full build here).
Nika is a great pairing, too as you will gain the shielding passive buff and then Nika deals her massive active skill damage (if you’re looking for a non-flying combo) (See full build here).
Best Artifacts
Let’s now take a look at the numerous artifacts that you can possible use. We have tested many of them and some have amazing synergy and others are more in for the stats but no matter what artifacts you have possibly available, you will find the one that works best. Please also check out the full tier list of all artifacts here to see which ones are worth the invest in general.

Best Builds For Theia
Below you will find the talent tree builds for Theia that make sense when running as the primary commander in any legion in Call of Dragons. Please also refer to the description below each talent tree as I explain a general route on how you should spend your talents there + some additional background for each talent build that I very likely will appreciate.
Running Theia as primary commander of your legion only makes sense in two cases – one is if you’re really new and you are lacking other heroes to make or if you make a support march where she is the rage battery. In this case you want to use this talent build here.
