When setting up a friendly battle, it is a good idea to check your 'Gear Score' to see if it matches your opponent's score. Recently I had a friendly battle where I asked my opponent what he had & he didn't really understand what I meant... I tried to explain & he seemed to get it, but the fight itself was still really 1-sided. I felt badly for him & to avoid any miscommunications in the future, I figured some visual aids were in order:
The easiest way to check your score is to look at the expedition page. Choose the hero you want to command the battle (here we see my hero 'ActionBastrd' selected) then hover your cursor over the 5 boxes displayed directly under the hero pic:
The green box shows the troop movement speed
The red boxes show physical attack/defense bonuses
And the blue boxes show magic attack/defense bonuses
So be sure to double-check your scores before having a friendly battle, otherwise it will not be as 'friendly' as you might like...
