These tips focus on choices described in the official Steam listing and two launch-period reviews. The reviewers did not establish a single best build, and the exact weapon recipes and level requirements are outside this guide.

1. Check a character’s starting weapon and stats

Characters have unique starting weapons and stats, according to the Steam listing. Before a run, use that starting kit to decide what kind of upgrades you want to build toward.

2. Look for weapon and passive synergies

PC Gamer and Wargamer both describe weapon evolutions as depending on specific support-item pairings. When choosing upgrades, consider whether a passive supports a weapon you are already building around. The sources reviewed here do not establish a complete recipe list or one universal level rule.

3. Spend gold between runs

Both reviewers describe gold as a way to strengthen future attempts: PC Gamer says it can improve the roster or unlock heroes, while Wargamer reports spending it on stats or characters. If a run ends early, check what you can improve before repeating the same setup.

4. Track progress separately in the two settings

The Warhammer 40,000 and Age of Sigmar sides have separate stages and objectives. If one track is frustrating, switching settings can offer a different set of stages and weapons, but do not assume a world-specific objective is completed in both. Some broader progression carries between them, as described in the reviews.

These are general patterns reported by launch reviewers, not a tested build order or a guarantee that a particular run will succeed.

FAQ

Is there one upgrade path that works for every run?
The checked sources describe different starting weapons and weapon-passive synergies. They do not establish one universal winning route or a complete recipe list.
