Last War Season 1 guide and tips

Season 1 marks the official launch of the post-apocalyptic survival experience. This first season of Last War Survival forms the foundation of the game with a new progression system, buildings and challenges. Below we reveal what you can expect and give tips on how you and your alliance can best master the season.

How to make a successful start to season 1

At the start of the game, you have to create a Build up high immunity against zombiesto be able to defeat them. Virus resistance can be Virus Research Institute through Immune proteins be increased. The necessary Proteins players receive in the Protein farm and the achievement of goals. To increase the level of the farms, again Mutant crystals necessary. The crystals are obtained by killing zombies for the first time (once per level) as well as through the Gene recombination and goals achieved.

Preserving resources with gene recombination

With the "Gene recombination" feature (found under "Season"), you can obtain important resources such as mutant crystals. A gene recombination is possible every other hour and up to 30 can be collected. To start this, you need six different genes, which you can obtain as follows:

Gen 1-3:

Destroy zombies
Vaccinating contaminated members
Spread the virus
Gene swap
Radar missions
Defeat the elite of the damned

Gen 4-6:

Attack cities and bases
Radar missions
Defeat the elite of the damned
Gene swap

Curing and spreading viral infections

If your virus resistance to zombies is too low, you will be infected with the virus after the battle. An infection weakens your combat strength. If you attack and defeat a commander, small amounts of the virus will also be transmitted to your opponent. Your allies can detoxify you with their spy planes and receive gene fragments as a reward. However, you can also deliberately spread the virus to weaken an opponent and achieve objectives.

To spread higher amounts of the virus, you can prevent allies from healing.
After 100 virus stacks, your base will explode after a countdown. The explosion damages & infects other bases in the immediate vicinity.

Tips and tricks for Last War season 1

To play as efficiently as possible and grow quickly in Season 1, we have the following tips for you:

Players with high virus resistance must support players with low resistance in the Elite of the Damned so that they can collect resources for the higher immunity as quickly as possible.
Expand your protein farms evenly, because the costs increase with each level, while the production output increases evenly.
Collect gene fragments by vaccinating infected members (1-3)
First level up your seasonal tank factory as high as possible, because your 1st troop (most important) usually only gets tank heroes.
Obtain gene fragments by attacking non-aligned military bases (4-6)
Get rewards at Button Season 1 => Season 1 => Goals regularly from
Perform a UR upgrade of Mason (from 5 stars) as soon as possible.
Use your points in the professional hall efficiently and reset them (if necessary).

Buy "Tower of Victory" from the Black Market or the Glitter Market for Season 2

This is the goal of Last War season 1

In addition to high immune protection against zombies, the influence of your alliance is paramount. Conquering military fortresses and cities increases your influence points. You can collect these not only in your war zone, but also in the War zone expedition by building outposts and capturing military fortresses and cities on other servers. At the end of Season 1, the Influence points via your season ranking and the associated rewards that the R5 distributes among the alliance. Honor points can be used to purchase valuable iTems and base skins.

Conquering cities and fortresses

The first fortresses and cities can be conquered shortly after the start of Season 1. There are certain rules for the conquest that every alliance must adhere to:

First, the alliance must conquer any level 1 military fortress in the war zone.
Alliances can conquer up to 2 cities and military fortresses per day.
At the start of the game, the limit of military fortresses is 3, with each conquered city (1-5) the limit increases by +1
For a conquered city of level 6, the limit is increased by +2
In the menu under Alliance => Alliance city you can check the current number of cities/fortresses and the daily limit.
After the conquest, there is a protection phase for cities and fortresses.
Continuously renew the protection phase with friendly alliances at the latest at the start of the warzone duel.
In each war zone (server), each alliance can conquer up to 4 cities.
Your alliance receives more influence points for cities than for military fortresses.
Take part in the war zone expedition with your alliance to collect more influence points (important for season rewards).
