Seven Knights 2 — The Player’s Deep Guide

Hey fellow adventurer! I jumped into Seven Knights 2 and have been playing it seriously for a while now — so I figured I’d pull together a full-on guide from a player’s identity, not a cold AI tone. I’ll walk you through everything I’ve learned: the game’s vibe, how to get started, hero builds, the tier lists, progression, gear, combat—yes, the whole bundle. If you just started or are thinking of diving in, this will help you get way less lost and more ahead. Let’s head in.

I. Introduction to Seven Knights 2

A. Overview of the game and features

Seven Knights 2 is the big sequel from Netmarble, building on the original’s legacy. The game presents cinematic visuals, a large hero roster, story-driven quests, gacha mechanics, and team-based strategic play. The promotional material states it’s the “official sequel to Seven Knights, a game enjoyed by 60 million players globally!” +2netmarble.com+2
What I appreciate: the mix of story + visuals + hero collection really hit that sweet spot—makes you want to grind not just for power, but for characters you like.

B. Game genre and gameplay style

It’s a gacha RPG with action-elements (sometimes described as action-RPG) mixed with strategic hero team management. Players build parties of heroes, level them, gear them, fight in dungeons/raids/Arena, etc. One review says “It’s actually secretly good… it’s not one of those million 10-pull type games.”
So yes: expect hero pulls, upgrades, but there is actual gameplay substance.

C. Platform availability (mobile, PC)

Seven Knights 2 is available on mobile (iOS/Android) globally. The store page confirms the global launch.  Also there is a PC version via emulators or official PC client in some regions.

D. Global release information

The game’s global version carried the tag “global” and Netmarble promoted it worldwide.  For you, that means you likely can access it in your region (check store).

E. Publisher (Netmarble) overview

Netmarble is the publisher behind many big mobile RPGs. The backing means solid development, continuous updates, strong community support. That is good for long-term players like us.

II. Getting Started and Beginner Guide

A. Game installation and account creation

Here’s how I started:

• Download from App Store/Google Play in your region.

• Install game, create account (link to email / social login).

• Complete the first tutorial—this will guide you basic controls, first party formation, your first pulls.

• Immediately check for beginner rewards (many games give login bonuses, free pulls).

B. Initial tutorial and basic mechanics

The tutorial will let you experience the core loop: hero selection, combat basics (skills, ultimates), maybe auto-combat, team composition. Use this time to play manually (not just auto) so you understand how heroes behave. After that auto mode becomes useful.

C. First-time player tips and tricks

• Don’t rush pulls: Save up your summon currency until you know what you’re aiming for (we’ll cover reroll later).

• Hero synergy matters: Early on pick heroes you enjoy and who work together, not just what looks “meta”.

• Complete everything: Story, events, daily missions, login bonuses—they set you up.

• Join a community/guild if available. Getting help and tips from others is gold.

D. New player resource allocation

Resources early on are precious (summon tickets, upgrade mats, hero shards, gold). My advice:

• Prioritize upgrading one or two strong heroes rather than spreading thin.

• Save some summon currency for a “rate-up” banner (when a hero you want is featured).

• Use daily freebies—inventory space, event rewards, etc.

E. Early game progression strategy

From my first couple weeks playing:

• Focus on finishing the story campaign until you unlock most core features (hero roster, PvE modes, gear upgrading).

• Clean out the easier story/dungeon stages in auto mode to accumulate resources.

• Once you unlock higher-tier content (Arena, boss raids), shift attention there.

• Monitor hero growth: levels, gear, skills. These will unlock power in harder content.

III. Hero Selection and Character Classes

Let’s talk heroes. There’s a lot here, so we’ll break down some key characters and roles.

A. Rudy hero guide and overview

One of the flagship heroes in Seven Knights 2 is Rudy (also stylised Knight of Light Rudy). He’s heavily featured in many updates (see news about his Legend+ version).
If you land Rudy early, he’s likely a safe bet for progression. He fits well into many teams and has solid baseline stats.

B. Dellons character mechanics

Another hero you’ll hear about is Dellons. He has a particular play style (depending on his variant) and is often listed in community tier discussions. As per tier list sources, he falls into certain tiers (we’ll cover those).
If you like fast paced, high damage heroes, Dellons might be your type.

C. Eileene hero abilities

Eileene is often a recommended support/utility type hero. Many guides say even if a hero is not “top tier”, you still want to level them to slot synergy or team bonuses.
If you get her, don’t scrap her—she can be part of your long-game line-up.

D. Karin healer role guide

Karin is one of the healer heroes in the roster. Having a reliable healer in your team early makes progression smoother (less survival issues).
When you pick Karin (or similar), gear them for durability + healing output.

E. Lina character specialization

Lina is a hero you’ll encounter in tier lists (even though some lists place her lower). She might not be mega meta but she’s worth understanding especially if you get her early.
If you enjoy “underdog” hero playstyle, Lina might be fun.

IV. More Hero Characters

A. Noho character guide

Noho is another hero often mentioned in beginner guides. The community notes that even non-top tier heroes have value if you invest wisely.
If you pull Noho, you can build them for niche roles.

B. Platin hero overview

Platin sees some mention in ‘A-tier’ hero lists (depending on the version). Good hero to keep on radar.

C. Yuri character abilities

Yuri likewise shows up in tier discussions. The key for you: when you pull heroes, check how they align with your team and how many shards/upgrades you can realistically get.

D. Hero roles and functions

Heroes fill roles: DPS (damage dealers), Healers/Support, Tanks/Survivability, Utility (debuffs, control). When building your team think: do I have one primary DPS, one support/healer, one tank/utility?

E. Hero classification system

This game classifies heroes by rarity (Legendary, Mythic, default), by role, by faction or class, and by synergy sets. Understanding classification helps you invest wisely. For example: one community guide states you should hit level cap (Lv50) for heroes before fusing shards.

V. Character Tier Lists and Rankings

Let’s get into tier lists – yes, there’s subjectivity, but player community has consensus to guide you.

A. Overall tier list ranking

One blog lists “S-Tier, A-Tier…” for Seven Knights 2 heroes.
For example: S-Tier = top heroes you aim for; A-Tier = very good; B-Tier = viable; C-Tier and below = specialist or weaker.

B. Arena tier list guide

In PvP/Arena you’ll want heroes who are good against other players: strong speed, burst, control. Some heroes shine in Arena even if they aren’t best in PvE.

C. PvE tier list ranking

For story/dungeons/raid: you value sustained damage, survival, utility more. Some heroes might not be best Arena, but great in PvE.

D. PvP tier list analysis

Community feedback: gacha rates are tough, survival in PvP is harder. One Redditor said:

“Gacha rates are laughably bad though… it’s not one of those million 10-pull type games.”
So tier lists help you pick which heroes are worth chasing.

E. Best characters by role

From the lists: Tanks – heroes with high durability/taunt; Healers – dedicated healing; DPS – high damage; Utility – debuff/control.
Example: Rudy often pops in “safe” picks; Platin/A-tier heroes are good flex choices.

VI. Hero Roles and Functions

A. DPS characters overview

DPS = your main damage dealers. You’ll want heroes whose attack stats scale well, whose skills hit hard, and who fit your team’s synergy.

B. Support hero guide

Support heroes boost your team via buffs, healing, or control. They may not shine alone, but in tougher content they’re essential.

C. Tank character mechanics

Tank heroes absorb damage, hold aggro, allow DPS to shine. If you pick a tank early you’ll benefit in higher floors/dungeons where survival matters.

D. Healer role specialization

Having a reliable healer reduces the need to repeat content due to wipes. Karin (earlier) is an example. Gear them with healing/stat boosting items.

E. Attacker vs. Defender classification

Attackers = DPS; Defenders = Tanks/Healers. You want balanced composition: one of each major role rather than all DPS, all risk.

VII. Rerolling and Account Setup

If you’re just starting, rerolling can give you a better start.

A. Reroll guide and strategy

“Reroll” = starting the game, doing free pulls, if you don’t get a good hero, starting over until you do. Many guides recommend this for gacha games. For 7K2, players have done this.

B. How to reroll efficiently

• Create account

• Do tutorial/first free summons

• Check if you got one top tier hero (S-Tier)

• If not: uninstall/reset account or use another device

• Once you have good hero: proceed with that account

C. Best starting heroes

Based on tier lists: aim for S-Tier hero in your first pulls if possible. If you get an A-Tier hero early, still decent. Having a strong lead hero speeds progression.

D. Initial pull recommendations

Use summon currency only after tutorial/free pulls are done. Check current banners: rate-up heroes often with better chance. Don’t spend blindly.

E. Early account optimization

Once you’re locked in: focus resources on your top hero(s), finish early story/dungeons, start building team around your pull rather than switching hero constantly.

VIII. Hero Evolution System

A. Hero evolution guide

Evolution = upgrading hero rarity or “transcending” them to a powerful version. 7K2 supports evolution/transcendence mechanics. Guides mention “rebirth” of heroes.

B. Evolution requirements

Often need hero shards, materials, gold, sometimes specific quests or achievements. Make sure you collect those as you play.

C. Evolved hero benefits

Evolved heroes get higher stats, new skills, maybe new looks. They unlock further content. Great payoff if you invest.

D. Evolution priority guide

Don’t evolve everyone. Pick your main team (heroes you use most) and evolve them. Spreading resources across too many gives weaker results.

E. Transcendence guide overview

Transcendence is an “end-game” step for highest heroes (Legendary+). If you aim for long-term, pick one or two heroes you’ll transcend. Community forums note focus on level cap, then fusion/shards.

IX. Progression and Leveling

A. Leveling guide by level range

Early levels (1–30): story campaign, basic gear. Mid game (30–50): unlock daily content, start hero evolution. Late game (50+): end-game dungeons, boss raids, ascend heroes. Community says “cap heroes to Lv50 first” before extensive fusing.

B. Fast leveling strategies

• Use auto mode on repeatable story/dungeon stages

• Use XP boost items (if available)

• Clear daily/weekly challenges

• Gear hero to clear faster (time = XP)

C. Level progression milestones

Milestones: hitting level cap for your hero, unlocking second job/hero advancement, finishing main campaign chapter, entering PvP/Arena. Each milestone brings new content/features unlocked.

D. Experience farming methods

Identify “high XP” repeatable stages or events. Use auto to farm when you’re not playing actively. Also join guilds, because guild bonuses often boost XP or drops.

E. Optimal grinding guide

Grind steadily rather than burst. Level up your main hero so you can clear harder content faster, which in turn yields better rewards. Don’t skip early progression or you’ll face bottlenecks.

X. Dungeon and PvE Content

A. Dungeon guide overview

Dungeons are key: story dungeons, upgrade/gold dungeons, challenge dungeons. They provide gear, gold, materials. Must integrate into your daily play.

B. Upgrade dungeon mechanics

Upgrade dungeons drop gear upgrade materials. Keep a stable schedule of running them (once unlocked) so your heroes stay equipped.

C. Power-up dungeon farming

These stages often refresh daily or weekly and give high value rewards (shards, gold, rare materials). Use resources to unlock and run them.

D. Gold dungeon strategy

Gold is always needed (gear upgrades, evolution). Farming gold efficiently—running gold dungeon with few retries—is crucial.

E. Experience dungeon guide

There might be special XP dungeons/events. Use them when available. Don’t neglect them—XP helps unlock other systems faster.

XI. Advanced PvE Content

A. Tower of Abyss guide

One of the tougher modes: “Tower” content where floors escalate in difficulty. Community describes how the leader can be attacked after lower tiers are defeated.
Prepare a strong, durable team and gear to climb it.

B. Tower progression strategy

Focus on a consistent hero team, upgrade gear, keep pace with floors. Don’t rush with under-powered heroes.

C. Boss fight tactics

For high-level bosses, manual control is key: trigger ultimates at right time, use buffs/debuffs. Soloing may require strong supports/tanks.

D. Raid guide overview

Raid content lets you team up, share rewards. Make sure your guild/party is active. Work on roles (tank/healer/DPS) and gear accordingly.

E. Challenge level guide

Challenge modes unlock after some progression. They test your build rather than just levels. Good builds win here. Study hero synergy.

XII. Equipment and Gear System

A. Equipment guide overview

Gear in 7K2 comes in multiple rarities and forms (weapons, armour, accessories). Each piece boosts hero stats strongly.

B. Gear progression path

From Normal → Rare → Epic → Legendary. Each step requires better resources. Don’t rush to Legendary unless your hero is ready.

C. Equipment enhancement mechanics

Enhancing gear (upgrade levels, add sub-stats) boosts power significantly. Many players neglect substats and regret later.

D. Mythic gear guide

At high tiers there will be “Mythic” or top-tier gear. Getting them early gives big edge. But also big investment.

E. Upgrade materials overview

Materials for upgrades are limited: shards, enhancement stones, gold. Plan material usage; don’t waste on low-tier heroes.

XIII. Enhancement and Optimization

A. Enhancement system guide

Enhancement = upgrading gear + hero skills. Commit to hero you plan to use long-term.

B. Hero enhancement process

Hero enhancement includes leveling, skills, equipment, evolution. Build it step by step.

C. Skill enhancement mechanics

Skills can be upgraded (damage increasement, effect change). Prioritise main skill and ultimate first.

D. Ultimate skill upgrade guide

Ultimate skills often turn the tide in tough battles. Focus resources to unlock and upgrade them early for your main hero.

E. Enhancement priority guide

Priority: Hero → Gear → Skills → Support systems. If you spread resources equally you’ll be weaker across the board.

XIV. Enchantment and Stats

A. Enchantment system guide

Some gear or heroes may allow “enchanting” (adding extra stats, bonuses). Learn which stats are most meaningful.

B. Enchantment substat guide

Substats like Crit Rate, Crit Damage, Speed, etc may matter. Choose substats that match your hero’s role (DPS vs Tank vs Support).

C. Stat distribution optimization

Don’t chase every stat; pick 2-3 key stats for your hero. For example DPS hero: Attack + CritDamage; Tank: HP + Defence.

D. Speed stat importance

Speed often dictates turn order in battles, especially PvP/Arena. Investing in speed can give you significant advantage.

E. Substat prioritization

Don’t upgrade substats just because—they must align with hero/type. Many players regret boosting wrong stats. Reddit guide emphasised careful investment.

XV. Combat Systems and Mechanics

A. Combat system overview

Combat in 7K2 is flashy and strategic. You’ll use hero skills, ultimates, auto-modes, but also need manual for high tiers. Review says: “The graphics and presentation are pretty nice.”

B. Battle mechanics explained

Mechanics include: hero speed/turn order, skill cooldowns, team synergy, gear stat boost, hero potentials. Planning your hero turns matters.

C. Skill rotation guide

A typical rotation: Buff → Main Skill → Ultimate (once ready) → Support Skill → Repeat. Against tougher opponents you might adjust.

D. Cooldown management

High level content often punishes poor cooldown management (waiting too long, using ultimate too early). Manual mode helps.

E. Damage calculation system

Damage output depends on hero base stats + gear stats + skill level + Crit Rate/Damage + buffs + enemy defence. So the layering matters. Many guides highlight this depth.

And that wraps up my deep, player-centric guide to Seven Knights 2. I’ve walked you through everything from what the game is, how to jump in, hero selection, tiers, gearing, progression, and combat mechanics. If you follow this roadmap, you’ll avoid many rookie mistakes and you’ll feel strong rather than just leveling aimlessly.

Final piece of advice: pick heroes you enjoy playing, because grind becomes much easier if you love your team. Also keep one eye on meta (tier lists) and one eye on your fun. Balance is key.

Now go forth, summon your team, gear them up, climb those towers, dominate that Arena—and enjoy every moment in the world of Seven Knights 2. See you on the battlefield!
