The Witcher Battle Arena - Tips, Tricks, and Strategies for Getting Ahead in Battle

Welcome to the arena:
Are you on the fence about jumping into battle in the first place? Check out our review of The Witcher Battle Arena!

Have you just downloaded The Witcher Battle Arena and have no idea where to start or what to do? I’m not surprised given its tutorial is far from helpful. But no worries: we’re here to give you some helpful tips and tricks on how to get ahead!

The Basics

Like so many free to play MOBAs, The Witcher Battle Arena gives you some characters for free before requiring you to unlock more for a price (in-game or otherwise).
Pick a character and stick with it. Each character has their own playing style, with different types suiting different players. Learn what works for you and stick with it.
Melee based fighters are generally the best choice when you’re learning early on, with ranged fighters being a bit trickier and requiring more practice.
Each character gains experience and items individually, which is another reason to focus on one or two at most.
You can gain experience and coins through playing the practice mode, giving you the perfect opportunity to build up your character before diving into the much harder PvP side of things.
Once you feel comfortable with practice mode, dip into co-op and learn what it's like to play alongside other players. Again, it'll earn you experience as you play.
Remember to equip new items. They come at a steady pace after each game, with gold also being useful to use during a match.

In the Heat of Battle

Focus on capturing checkpoints rather than killing enemies. Sure the latter might seem like fun, but you’ve got more chance of an overall victory if you focus on the objective.
Grab the nearest checkpoint when you first spawn. Then go for the middle one. After that, focus on defending them. You can still win with two out of three checkpoints and it stops you from stretching yourself too thinly.
Focus on defense rather than taking the battle to your enemies. That goes the same for using gold for in-game advantages. Focus on armour and defenses first, power later.
Your health restores during moments of downtime, which is another reason why hanging back is a wise idea.
It's a team game so try to stick with your teammates, even if it is a little tricky with limited ways to communicate.
Don’t bother walking back to the spawning area to use the in-game shop. Wait till you die as you can do it while you wait to respawn.
Bear in mind that each time you die, your respawn time increases.
Refill special items such as health potions by walking over the yellow marked areas on the map. These can make all the difference in a fight.
