A Dragon Dimension Tier Five Troop Overview

The Dragon T5 family has come to a full circle! We now have Regular, Strategic and Wild Tier five Troops. With the completion of this circle, we want to be sure that you have all the information you need about your Tier five troops. Previously, we have covered the Regular tier five troops that were released first, however, now we want to provide a comprehensive overview of your tier five troops. However, before you dive in feel free to go back and read our article that covers the first Dragon Dimension T5 release. 

A Tier Five Troop Overview

Meet Your Tier Five Troops 

Tier Five troops of every type are now here! We now have Regular, Strategic, and Wild T5 Troops to round out the combat circle once again. For those traps that went all Strat T5 with the release of strategic tier five troops it is once again time to change up your setup. 

Regular Tier Five Troops

Strategic Tier Five Troops

Wild Tier Five Troops

Explore your Tier Five Research 

Each of our tier five types has its own research. In our article A Tier Five Troop Overview we went more in-depth into Regular Tier Five Research so while we will be looking at that research as we look at T5 as a whole, you will still want to go back and read that article for the more in-depth information on Regular T5 Troops. 

Regular Tier Five Research

Regular Tier Five Research was divided into two research trees. When looking for this research you will want to look at your Combat and Wall Traps Research trees. To find the research for tier five you will need to continue past the T4 Research that you had previously completed. In order to complete Regular Tier Five Research, you will need Inspired Research Knowledge. 

Strategic Tier Five Research 

Strategic Tier Five Research is going to be found at the bottom of your Strategic Combat Tree after, you guessed it, your Tier 4 Research. This research includes some great stats and we will list those here as we have yet to cover Strategic T5 Research. Strategic T5 Research Requires Strategic Combat Research Tomes II in order to be able to complete this research. 

We will talk more about what stats to really look at for the type of player you are in a little bit. However, here is a comprehensive list of the stats provided by Strategic T5 Research. 

• Unlock T5 Strategic Troops
• Infantry, Ranged, and Cavalry Attack vs Battle Marked Target (Max: 5,500%)
• Empire Assault Attack (Max: 5,400%)
• Empire Assault Defense (Max: 6,000%) 
• Empire Assault Health (Max: 2,800%)
• Type Attack (Max: 5,800%)
• Type Defense (Max: 3,000%)
• Type Health (Max: 3,000%)
• Wonder Rally Troop Attack (Max: 6,200%)
• Wonder Troop Health Bonus (Max: 6,200%)
• Wonder Defender Troop Attack (Max: 6,200%)

Wild Tier Five Research 

Finally, recently we saw the release of Wild Tier Five Research. This Research is something to talk about. It can be found at the bottom of your Wild Combat Research Tree and in order to complete it, you must have Wild Combat Research Tomes II. Once again we will quickly cover the stats offered by this research, however, we will go more in-depth about prioritization for different styles of players below. 

• Unlock Tier five Wild Troops
• Empire Defender Attack (Max: 17,500%)
• Empire Defender Defense (Max: 17,500%)
• Empire Defender Health (Max: 17,500%) 
• Empire Assault Attack (Max: 14,000%)
• Empire Assault Defense (Max: 15,500%) 
• Empire Assault Health (Max: 8,000%)
• Type Attack (Max: 15,000%)
• Type Defense (Max: 10,500%)
• Type Health (Max: 10,500%)
• Wonder Rally Troop Attack (Max: 12,500%)
• Wonder Troop Health (Max: 12,500%) 
• Wonder Defender Troop Attack (Max: 12,500%) 

Prioritize your Tier Five Research 

Now that we have briefly looked at each of the researches associated with your tier five troops let’s talk prioritization. It is easy to prioritize older trees because of the fact that mats are less costly and easily available for these research trees. When we look at the newest tree, Wild, the tomes needed are still more costly and have limited availability. There are a few things that we do want to consider before we begin discussing prioritization: 

1. The Tier Five are relatively easy to unlock in and of themselves making a quick unlock worth it. 
2. While new research did come with our new Tier five it is not tier specific. What this means is that the research will benefit all your troops. Back in the day, we used to talk about the fact that the new troops were worthless if your research was not on par. That is because these troops gained their strength from the research that surrounded them. However, in the Dragon Dimension, there is no Tier Specific Research. This means that Tier Five is going to inherently be stronger than your lower tiers and further research will just strengthen you overall. 

Tier Five Research for Defenders

Defenders here is what you need to know about Tier five research before we dive into prioritization: 

1. Regular Tier five research does add power and has Academy Level Requirements. This is covered more in-depth in the previous article about Tier five Regular Research. 
2. Strategic and Wild Tier Five Research do not add power or have the same Academy Level Requirements. This is nice for Traps who do not want to upgrade their stronghold but want Tier five troops but in this circumstance, you will not have Regular Tier Five available. 

When we look at our Research for Defenders we really want to find Research with good Type Stats and Empire Defender Stats. With the High level of debuffs in-game this is really where most defenders have focused in. So looking from this perspective lets talk where you will find those stats. 

Wall Traps Research

Your Wall Traps Research is great for Empire Defender Stats. The nice thing is that once you unlock these researches you can level them all the way up without following a specific “flow.” 

• Empire Defender Health (Max: 2,500%) 
• Empire Defender Defense (Max: 3,000%) 
• Empire Defender Attack (Max: 5,400%) 

Combat Research

Here we will find our Type Stats for our Regular Troops. With these researches being in separate trees you have to really look at your strategy for leveling them up. However, we discussed this in more detail in the article we have been referencing (have I given enough hints to go back and read it). The Type Stats we will find here are: 

• Infantry, Ranged, and Cavalry Health (Max: 4,500%)
• Infantry, Ranged, and Cavalry Attack (Max: 9,500%)
• Infantry, Ranged, and Cavalry Defense (Max: 4,800%) 

Strategic Combat Research

When we look at Strategic Combat Research there are considerably fewer stats for Defenders. However, some have snuck in that will be helpful. 

• Type Attack (Max: 5,800%)
• Type Defense (Max: 3,000%)
• Type Health (Max: 3,000%)

Wild Combat Research

Wild Combat by far has the most impressive stats for defenders. These stats are going to push traps over the edge, especially those that upgrade early. 

• Empire Defender Attack (Max: 17,500%)
• Empire Defender Defense (Max: 17,500%)
• Empire Defender Health (Max: 17,500%)
• Type Attack (Max: 15,000%)
• Type Defense (Max: 10,500%)
• Type Health (Max: 10,500%)

The Full Picture for Defenders

You want to complete as much of the listed researches as possible but when we have to prioritize due to cost it is worth looking at the full picture. When we do look at the full picture of T5 Research the biggest priority should be Wild Combat Research. However, because it is so new it will also be the most costly. When we are looking at our next priority it would be great to focus on the Regular T5 Research as it provides more stats overall. The Strategic Research does have decent type stats however, this tree provides the least stats for defenders. 

Tier Five Research for Wonder Players

Next up we are going to look at Tier Five Research for Wonder Players.  When we look at stats in these trees for Wonder players we are really going to focus on Type Stats, Troop Stats, and Wonder Specific Stats. 

Wall Traps Research 

Nada, Zip, Zulch. You guys have no stats that are useful in Wonder in this Research Tree so you for that reason just act like it does not exist.

• Infantry, Ranged, and Cavalry Health (Max: 4,500%)
• Infantry, Ranged, and Cavalry Attack (Max: 9,500%)
• Infantry, Ranged, and Cavalry Defense (Max: 4,800%) 
• Troop Defense and Health (Max Troop Defense Bonus: 4,400% and Max Troop Health Bonus: 4,200%) 
• Troop Attack (Max: 8,800%) 

Strategic Combat Research

There are a few stats here that will be useful for Wonder Players. 

• Type Attack (Max: 5,800%)
• Type Defense (Max: 3,000%)
• Type Health (Max: 3,000%)
• Wonder Rally Troop Attack (Max: 6,200%)
• Wonder Troop Health Bonus (Max: 6,200%)

The Full Picture for Wonder Players

When we look at the full picture you want as many stats as possible. However, right now you will get the most stats from Wild Combat Research. Just do not abandon the other trees because missing stats can be detrimental to your gameplay. 

Tier Five Research for Attackers

Finally, we are going to look at Tier Five Research for Attackers. Here we are going to look at our Battlemark Stats, Type Stats, Troop Stats, and Empire Assault Stats. There are a lot of stats to look at as an attacker. However, as you are able to build those stats you will notice the difference in your stats. 

Wall Traps Research

Wall Traps Research does have some research that will be beneficial to attackers. 

• Empire Assault Health (Max: 3,300%)
• Empire Assault Defense (Max: 4,000%)
• Empire Assault Attack (Max: 7,200%)

Combat Research

Combat Research is where we are going to find our Type and Troop stats for Attackers. 

• Infantry, Ranged, and Cavalry Health (Max: 4,500%)
• Infantry, Ranged, and Cavalry Attack (Max: 9,500%)
• Infantry, Ranged, and Cavalry Defense (Max: 4,800%) 
• Troop Defense and Health (Max Troop Defense Bonus: 4,400% and Max Troop Health Bonus: 4,200%) 
• Troop Attack (Max: 8,800%) 

Strategic Combat Research

With Strategic Combat Research we will see similar research as what you see for Regular Tier Five with the addition of some battle mark stats. 

• Infantry, Ranged, and Cavalry Attack vs Battle Marked Target (Max: 5,500%)
• Empire Assault Attack (Max: 5,400%)
• Empire Assault Defense (Max: 6,000%) 
• Empire Assault Health (Max: 2,800%)
• Type Attack (Max: 5,800%)
• Type Defense (Max: 3,000%)
• Type Health (Max: 3,000%)

Wild Combat Research 

Finally, we have Wild Combat Research which has some impressive stats for attackers as well. 

• Empire Assault Attack (Max: 14,000%)
• Empire Assault Defense (Max: 15,500%) 
• Empire Assault Health (Max: 8,000%)
• Type Attack (Max: 15,000%)
• Type Defense (Max: 10,500%)
• Type Health (Max: 10,500%)

The Full Picture for Attackers

Once again Wild Research by far has the best stats for Attackers. However, if you are working on a budget then your next priority should be Strategic and then dig into Combat and Wall Traps Research. Remember that prioritizing older research is just as important as missing chunks can severely impact you as a player.
