As for combat tips and tricks in Midnight Suns, there is quite a lot to cover, so we’ll just cover the basics that every player should know before engaging the enemy. Let us start off with the most basic one.

  • Quick Attacks are highly valuable and should be prioritized in most situations.
  • In missions, focus on completing the objective as it determines mission success in Midnight Suns.
  • Avoid severe injuries to heroes, but if they get injured, ensure they receive the necessary rest.
  • Utilize Combat items; they are easy to craft, free, and provide a significant advantage in battle.
  • Exercise caution with difficulty modifiers; unlocking new ones increases enemy toughness and XP gained

Know Your Team

The very first piece of advice we can give you is to know properly about the strengths and weaknesses of the characters in your roster. Ensure that each character has a separate role that complements the other. Your roster shouldn’t be filled with heroes who all do the same thing. Some match-ups can cost you greatly.

For example, if a hero can perform devastating attacks at the cost of losing his health, then he belongs in a roster with some healers. The abilities of both characters will complement each other in this case.

What To Do In The Abbey

  • After every mission, return to the Abbey to unwind and upgrade items with your team.
  • Ensure your time in the Abbey is well spent by having at least one research project in the Forge; research projects take a day or two to complete.
  • Prioritize combat items in research projects, as they are free-to-cast and extremely useful mid-battle.
  • Read books occasionally to gain Arcane knowledge, allowing you to open new chests in the Abbey.
  • Save Arcane keys for rare or legendary chests, avoiding use on common ones.
  • Remember to pet Charlie every day; it’s crucial for his strength as he can’t be upgraded like other heroes.
  • Over time, summon Charlie in battles; he can be a lifesaver in certain scenarios

Explore The Abbey Grounds

Exploring this area is optional in Midnight Suns, but you will miss out on a lot of stuff if you don’t take the time to fully explore this area. For example, exploring the grounds will give you access to Agatha’s Cauldron, which you can use to turn Regents into essence, gifts, and tonics. There are also armor sets, passive abilities, and multiple other things that you will miss out on by not exploring this area.

In a nutshell, we recommend spending a ton of time in the Abbey and the Abbey Grounds to make sure that all of the resources available to you are being utilized properly and that you are not missing out on anything.

There’s nothing wrong with having a favorite hero but we would recommend trying out different heroes and learning about each of their strengths and weaknesses and which hero works best with whom. Keep every hero leveled up, as you never know when you might need the abilities of a certain hero to win a battle in the late game.

Design your roster according to the abilities of the boss you are about to fight.

Leveling Up Cards And Friendships

  • Keeping all characters leveled up is challenging with 13 heroes in the game.
  • Choose favorite heroes for focused leveling.
  • Increase friendship level by spending time with chosen heroes and giving them gifts.
  • Unlock passive abilities by raising friendship levels.
  • Preferred heroes used in battles tend to have similar levels.
  • Unlock new ability/hero cards for preferred heroes as you use them, making them stronger.
  • Instead of individually leveling up each hero, focus on T.H.R.E.A.T Rooms in the yard.
  • Allows leveling up every hero by playing with just one powerful hero.
  • Effective way to level up under-leveled heroes and should not be ignored
