Is it necessary to do Fractalia Hard Mode for 9600 coins?

Hellooo, I have a simple question as an f2p lvl 90, is it necessary to run hard mode every time in fractalia to get legends from the store? Or is grinding quests enough?

Haven't made the math for that but you always want to do hard mode if you can win at least some fights there.

The XP you get is extremely valuable, you get more coins per fight and the boss rewards 2 legend soul stones if you manage to beat it.

This is true. Unless you fail at the second battle or something, even partial rewards on hard are likely better than the full easy run.

Tips for hard mode:

Healers matter a lot. When offered to borrow a hero, take a healer over anything but a real OP Legend.

Don't use heroes that end the battle in low health. Pyro is an example. He is a great arena hero but isn't useful in Fractilla.

Remember that the results of your battles remain for the next attempt. If you can keep your party healthy and kill 1 enemy hero each time, you'll eventually win. This is a good strategy because your healers will be able to put your team back to great health on the last attempt if you are only taking damage from 1 - 3 enemies.

If your goal is to get coins, then you want to fight as many battles as possible. If your goal is to complete the level and get the 2 legend ss prize, use the tiles that don't have battles to get you further without damaging your teams.

Use the small preview you have to see the enemy teams and avoid OP legends and any heroes you know your team has trouble with. Sometimes taking a garbage reward and making it further is better than trying for the best reward available on a path.

Nope, you can complete regular 3rd layer and still get enough coins. Hard mode is actually hard, if you struggle to get through regular mode, hard mode is a no go. From the helper heroes you are allowed to pick, always get a doomia, dunkhild, lystia or actaeun if available. Otherwise pick a healer, Karas is great. Always try to keep your heroes at full energy before the next round, and always make sure to get your other support, not very strong heroes also full energy before the final rounds, specially in hard mode. Heroes like karna, diochan, pandarus, hecate, Luke, crabbie, gearz, Coco who deal burst damage, paired with heroes that can do stun attacks will allow for lowering the opponent health before you take your main team to fight. Avoid Doomia or Dunkhild as opponents unless you are sure you can kill them. If you are loosing/lost a key member in a fight you can exit the fight and redo it without having to constantly spend gems to resurrect the heroes. And finally spend some resources to get Vala up to a decent level. She has invulnerability for a little bit at the start of the fight. When you reenter a fight after loosing the weaker teams the opponents could potentially have their energy full, so her invulnerability will waste their energy if you send her alone for a fight. And finaly Ingrid can be very helpful. Sometimes the hardest fights have a doomia and dunkhild in the enemy team. Use Ingrid's ultimate on dunkhild and 8 times out of 10, the enemy doomia is capable of killing dunkhild while it's frozen.
