4. Bag Resource Trap & Warehouse Protection Thresholds

Safe vs Exposed Resources

Your city Warehouse only protects a strictly capped quantity of each resource (e.g., 3,000,000 Food, Timber, and Herbs at level 20).

  • Any resources shown on your top bar above the Warehouse protection cap are EXPOSED.
  • The moment an enemy scout spots millions in exposed resources, your city becomes a prime target, and attackers will strip your reserves to the bone.

[!CAUTION] The Golden Rule of Resource Management: Never, under any circumstances, open resource bags or chests from your inventory in advance!

  • Resources stored inside your inventory bags are completely invisible to enemy scout reports and 100% immune to plunder.
  • Only pop open the exact number of bags needed to start a specific building or research project immediately before tapping upgrade. Your city should always look “broke” to enemy scouts.

5. Tactical Positioning & Hidden “Row Shift” Mechanics

Combat in Last Asylum occurs in a two-row formation: Frontline (2 heroes) and Backline (3 heroes). However, auto-attack targeting and splash damage follow strict geometric rules.

ENEMY FORMATION:
[ Enemy Front 1 ]   [ Enemy Front 2 ]
[ Enemy Back 1 ]    [ Enemy Back 2 ]    [ Enemy Back 3 ]
        ▲                   ▲
        │                   │ (Direct Auto-attack Focus)
        ▼                   ▼
[ Your Tank 1 ]     [ Your Tank 2 ]
[ Your Carry 1 ]    [ Your Support ]    [ Your Carry 2 ]
YOUR FORMATION:

Direct Targeting and Diagonal Leaks

  • Melee auto-attacks prioritize the enemy frontline unit standing directly opposite.
  • If your left-flank tank (e.g. Arthur) falls before your right-flank tank (e.g. Daskal), the enemy left flank DOES NOT switch to the right tank! Instead, their attacks leak directly into your backline carry standing behind Arthur!
  • Tactical rule: Place your primary durability tank directly opposite the enemy squad’s highest burst-damage carry.

Mono-Faction Synergy & Raven Epigraphs

Deploying 5 heroes of the same class (e.g. 5 Warriors) grants a base +20% ATK, HP, and DEF squad bonus. However, the true game-changer emerges in late game: UR Raven Epigraphs provide massive percentage stat multipliers that apply EXCLUSIVELY to one specific faction.

  • In a pure 5-Warrior mono squad, every upgraded epigraph buffs 100% of your heroes.
  • In a mixed squad (2 Warriors, 2 Rangers, 1 Warlock), your epigraph value drops by over 60%, because only a fraction of your heroes benefit from the buffs.
