Valiant Force Forum

Hello fellow Valiants!
Let me be brief, I have been playing this game for about 4 months. Honestly, I've enjoyed this game thus far. So much so I've been monitoring forums and even reddit, occasionally some Youtube videos too. It is my intention to see this game succeed. That being said I would actually like to know with everyone's help, how are you all doing, in terms of your stats. It will allow me and hopefully other Valiants out there to gauge where they stand and hope to achieve.

For example something like, playing time 4 months. Prestige level 11. PVP ranking. Event Leader board ranking. Money Spent. Etc etc. Of course information like these are subject to your discretion whether you would like to share it with all of us.

Here would be mine.

Play Time : 4 Months
Hours Play Per day (Average) : 3 Hours
HQ Level : 76
Prestige Level : 0
Previous Event (Sven) Event Ladder : Tier 9
Arena Ranking : Gold 3 ; 56% Wins
Guild : Guildless
Garrison Buildings : Shield Tower, Strike Tower, Wishing Well, Watermill, Armor smith, Academy, Gold Mine, Weapon Forge, Salvage Yard, Gem Cavern
Story Progression : Up to Lost Chapel (Legendary)
Daily Events : Gold Mines (Completed up to Legendary) , Tower of Despair (Complete up to Heroic), Capitol Last Stand (Complete up to Heroic) *Able to do legendary but not sustainable
Main Heroes (Heroes most used) : Vincent (Warlord) , Freya (Gladiator) , Luna (Marksman) , Vann (Rogue) , Kiera (Elementalist) , Shizu (Assassin) , Nadia (Gunslinger)
Money Spent : Starter Pack Bundle (Can't remember how much it was, 8$?)

I think with these information it will help me gauge
1. How far I am in terms of play time between you guys
2. Co relation between Play Time, Prestige Level,HQ Level and Money Spent
3. How wide is the gap between Prestige Level Players of different tiers can achieve
4. How much of an Impact between Guild players vs Non Guild Players
5. Effectiveness of Garrison buildings that you choose to have
6. Hopefully with these information it will help prospective players to gauge how far they are willing to invest into this game,be it money or time.

Of course in no way I'm insinuating that what I'm currently doing is correct.My choices are my own to bear. I'm sure many would be wondering, don't you have more heroes than that? Yes I have. Except for a good tanker. The Rng goddess isn't giving me one yet. I just use those characters a lot more than others. Also, why am I guildess. I honestly just want to know how far of a disadvantage I am not being in a guild. My intention for all these would greatly help me decide how much money I'm willing to spent in the near future, or just remain at Prestige 0. Of course I would love to support the devs for this game. I did buy something after all. Not big but, it'll do for now. In terms of player skills, of course some are good at this game, fantastic even. I may not be able to be there on that level but I do enjoy this game as a casual player.

If there's any other relevant information that might be useful, please don't hesitate to add it in.

Thank you guys.

I don't know if it will help you or not, but I'll share mine as well, so you can use it as a comparison/reference (?)

I think the only disadvantage being guildless are when there's a guild tower like the last event, not getting Guild Chest, and no Raid. It's nice to join a fun active guild actually, don't see why not.

Thanks for your feedback. It will definitely help me. I hope more people can contribute.

Hi there fellow valiant,

Here is my bio:

Had about 2 periods of inconsistent plays so far where I didnt login for 2 weeks at a time. About to enter another. left current guild for that reason. plan to rejoin after.
Play Time : Since mid November last year. Halloween Event. 
Hours Play Per day (Average) : 3 hours from November to January. 1-2 hours from January to now.  
HQ Level : 82
Prestige Level : 10 (just promoted from 9 with songkran event)
Previous Event (Sven) Event Ladder : Tier 11/12/13? I cant remember. I have never been serious about the event ladders. 
Arena Ranking : Master 3 (highest reached) 1-2 month ago. 5k points reached but not yet attained champion. ranked 70 over then. Now, dont really care abt arena. just 3600-3800. 
Guild : Pandemonium
Garrison Buildings : Strike Tower, Wishing Well, Watermill, Armorsmith, Academy, Gold Mine, Marketplace, Fusion Altar, Gem Cavern
Story Progression : 1 star clear from normal to legendary 24-3. 3 star clear for all normal. no motivation to do the rest. 
Daily Events : All Legendary (only auto tower). Can be inconsistent in doing them especially during peak periods where i only login.
Main Heroes (11 heroes most used) : Freya (warlord), Sven(berserker), Vincent (berserker), Faye( paladin), Kane (gunslinger), Cybella (grand ranger), Ronan (mind warder) , Drake (dragoon), Lucille( inquisitor), Shizu (samurai) , Miu ( samurai) 
Food for thought:
Joining a good Guild is a major advantage.
1) Tower events: the rewards is MASSIVE FOR BOTH F2P N P2W. If you are able to complete 1st trial of every level (up to 30ish), you probably would have unlocked 50 sgd worth of stuff from playing to level 30. (without a guild, u cant get sven in past event also -100% event completion). If you were able to complete every trial up to floor 55, you may have unlocked 150++  sgd or more worth of in game items. (the svens, the hero selectors, the gems, gold hammers, energies, etc) 
2) Raid: Raid equips will be quite desirable since they come with skill rune like abilities with decent stats. 
3) Community: Adds another layer of fun to the game. 
4) Exchange of ideas and advice from veteran players: From what I can recall, f2p players who joined my guild in the past were able to attain 3600 arena within 1-2 months from bronze 1/3 after joining by taking reference from some veteran players' advice. Arena is quite an important gem source for f2p players imo. Once you reach 3600, its 130 gems a week minimally. If you complete daily quest, you can pull 400 every 2 weeks.

Also, do consider checking out the discord communities where you can talk to players from different guilds:
