So, I’ve been dabbling in Raid: Shadow Legends for a couple of months now. I’m free to play with the exception of a few dollars of google balance that was available to me because of the Google Rewards survey app. As a result, gems, energy, and silver are very limited. Early on, I made quite a few mistakes with how I chose to spend those resources. In this post, I’ll give a very simple overview of how to approach champion masteries. Should you use gems to unlock?

Getting one champion with full masteries can be a huge early game boost so it’s worthwhile, but as I’ll get into in the next section, it doesn’t continue being worthwhile. So, for your first good champ AND before you’re able to do stage 15 of the Minotaur, spend the 800 gems on a set of masteries and then hold your gems for other things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don’t bother with this until you can do stage 15 of Minotaur’s Labyrinth. The rewards below that point aren’t really worthwhile (this is also why it’s okay to spend gems to get masteries for the first time). To show that running the minotaur stage 15 is worth it – the math apparently goes something like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
