For Call of Dragons competitive spenders choosing a faction — the permanent bonus that compounds across every engagement for the life of your account. Choose wrong, and no amount of spending corrects it.
Call of Dragons Faction Guide (the permanent decision most players get wrong)
Faction selection in Call of Dragons is permanent. The bonus you choose applies to every march, every battle, and every gathering session for the entire life of your account. At $1,000+/month, a faction bonus that mismatches your troop type or hero investment path means every dollar you spend is producing slightly less power than it should. Over months of play, that marginal inefficiency compounds into a measurable competitive disadvantage.
Most faction guides tell you "pick what feels right.", but that's advice for casual players. For competitive spenders, faction selection should be a calculated decision based on your planned troop type, your priority hero investments, and your alliance's composition needs.
The Three Factions in Call of Dragons and Their Bonuses
Wilderberg (Orcs)
Bonus: Legion Physical ATK +3%, Destruction Engineering +10%
Best for: Infantry and physical DPS compositions. The +3% Physical ATK compounds across every physical troop in every engagement. For players building around Goresh + Skogul (counterattack infantry META), Kinnara, or physical cavalry like Bakshi, Wilderberg's bonus directly amplifies your primary damage output. The Destruction Engineering bonus accelerates siege scenarios.
Whale verdict: Choose Wilderberg if infantry or physical DPS is your primary troop investment. The +3% Physical ATK is small per engagement but compounds across thousands of engagements over your account's lifetime.
League of Order (Humans)
Bonus: Legion Magic DEF +3%, Overall Gather Speed +10%
Best for: Mage compositions and resource-heavy accounts. The +3% Magic DEF protects against enemy mage marches (Liliya + Waldyr) — increasingly relevant as mage meta grows. The +10% Gather Speed is the best economic bonus for players who actively gather, especially for farm accounts. League of Order is also the starting faction for Waldyr, making it the natural choice for players building building Liliya + Waldyr mage compositions.
Whale verdict: Choose League of Order if mage is your primary troop type or if you run farm accounts. The gather speed bonus is the strongest economic advantage available. The Magic DEF bonus protects against the increasingly dominant mage meta.
Spring Wardens (Elves)
Bonus: Legion March Speed +5%, Heal Speed +5%
Best for: Cavalry compositions and mobile PvP. The +5% March Speed is the most impactful PvP tactical advantage among all faction bonuses. Faster marches reach targets first, escape threats faster, and reposition more efficiently in open-field PvP. For cavalry players building around Bakshi or the Season 2 Agnar + Freya pair, March Speed amplifies cavalry's core strength: mobility. The +5% Heal Speed reduces troop recovery time between engagements.
Whale verdict: Choose Spring Wardens if cavalry is your primary troop type or if you prioritize open-field PvP dominance. March Speed is the most tactically impactful bonus.
How to Choose Your Faction as a Competitive Spender
Step 1: Decide your primary troop type first. Your faction should match your troop type, not the other way around. If you're building mage (Liliya + Waldyr), go League of Order. If infantry (Goresh + Skogul), go Wilderberg. If cavalry (Bakshi), go Spring Wardens.
Step 2: Consider your hero investment path. Hosk is troop-type universal — he doesn't influence faction choice. But your secondary and tertiary heroes (Liliya, Bakshi, Goresh) do lock you into a troop type. Match the faction to those heroes.
Step 3: Consider your alliance's composition needs. If your alliance already has 15 mage players and needs infantry for rally diversity, choosing Wilderberg for infantry may produce more alliance-wide value than being the 16th mage player in League of Order.
Step 4: Farm accounts should always be League of Order. The +10% Gather Speed is the strongest farm account bonus. Your main account's faction should match your PvP troop type; your farm accounts should always optimize for gathering.
What if I chose the wrong faction?
Faction selection is permanent — you cannot change it. If you've already chosen a faction that doesn't match your current troop type, you have two options: adjust your troop type to match your faction, or accept the marginal bonus mismatch and focus on other optimization areas where the impact is larger (hero builds, pairings, artifacts).
The faction bonus is meaningful but not game-breaking — a mismatched faction with optimal hero builds still outperforms a matched faction with poor hero investment...
