Last Fortress: Underground sees you collecting resources and expanding your underground base. You will use your heroes to complete different tasks around the Fortress and outside of it. They are plenty to choose from, so, you might be wondering what Last Fortress Underground’s best heroes and lineups are.
That’s why we’re here today. Some heroes will be in charge of various structures within your base, while others will be responsible for repairing and building new ones. Of course, there’s a special category of heroes who are responsible for the combat aspect of the game. They will defeat zombies, defend against enemy players, go on expeditions and more.
Below and on the next pages, you can find information about the best combat line-ups in Last Fortress Underground to tackle different tasks.
Heroes and Factions
In Last Fortress: Underground, there are two types of heroes. ‘Production‘ and ‘Combat‘. Production aka Solari heroes are responsible for pretty much everything that’s happening inside your base. Gathering all sorts of materials, building new structures, repairing and excavating.
Combat heroes, on the other hand, are used for tasks outside your base. Anything from rescuing residents to fighting zombies falls into their areas of expertise. These heroes are organized in line-ups of up to 5 members. Combat heroes are divided into 4 factions, which include the following:
- Minutemen
- Vindicators
- Wildlings
- Watchers
Putting together heroes of the same faction, grants a significant boost to your team.
Furthermore, factions counter each other, dealing additional 20% damage.
Heroes of each faction specialize in certain roles within a team formation. From damage dealers, tactical and tank heroes, there are a number of choices. When creating a battle team, finding the right balance is always the key to success. Stacking various multipliers from buffs such as faction bonus, as well as buffs that certain heroes can provide, will dramatically increase your team’s overall strength.
