Items Ahoy!
While the heroes of Empires and Puzzles are powerful on their own - especially if they work in perfect harmony! - sometimes they still need aid to secure a victory. Be it in fighting Titans, tackling mission stages, or even taking on different types of quests, Battle Items are convenient tools that players can rely on for regaining their heroes’ health, regenerating their mana, or even reviving fallen allies! And the best thing is that these are all producible in-game - provided you have the materials, the Forge, and Hunter’s Lodge, of course! These are our choices for the Top 15 Best Battle Items and How To Get Them.
15. Antidotes
Go Green!
Heroes who cleanse are invaluable in any line-up, obviously. But what if you want to go all-out offense-wise when doing quests, and the enemies you face - or even the stage itself! - gives out status effects? Then that’s when our Antidotes will sure come in handy!
Antidotes cure status ailments that your heroes are afflicted with, and they don’t just heal one hero; they cleanse all of them plus give them 25 HP each. Be it poison, burn, defense/attack down, mana ailments? Antidotes can instantly remove them from your heroes… provided they are dispellable in the first place. And you can even use up to 10 of them per stage! Just make sure your Forge is up to Level 3 and you have tons of Oil and Clean Cloth, plus some Food, to start mass-producing this very handy item!
Why Antidote is Great for…
- Cleansing dispellable status ailments
Get Antidote if...
- Your Forge is up to Level 3
- You have the materials (1 Oil, 1 Clean Cloth, 950 Food per antidote)
- You’ll be facing ailment-inflicting enemies/bosses/Titans or fighting in Special Stages where heroes suffer ailments regularly
- You don’t have a Cleanser in your lineup

14. Minor Mana Potion
Hey Mana!
With Special Skills being what heroes depend on to win battles, sometimes players may find their boards unwilling to give them the “right” tiles needed to fill up their heroes’ mana gauges. Thank goodness for Mana Potions, then!
This version allows one hero to regain 25% of their mana. It may not be much, but sometimes it’s just the last push needed to activate a hero’s skill! Up to 10 of them can be used in battle too. They can be produced in the Forge once it’s at Level 2 by using up 1 Large Bone, 1 Leather Strip, and 670 Food.
Why Minor Mana Potion is Great for…
- Instantly gaining 25% of a hero’s mana
Get Minor Mana Potion if...
- Your Forge is up to Level 2
- You have the materials (1 Large Bone, 1 Leather Strip, 670 Food per potion)

13. Arrow Attack
Sharp and Pointy!
Accuracy might not seem like a big thing when it comes to fights… except it very much influences whether or not your enemies actually hit your heroes with their attacks!
When launching an Arrow Attack, all enemies suffer 100 damage and they become less accurate for 4 turns. This makes it fantastic to use especially when facing tough bosses or Titans since they can very well miss hitting your heroes - leaving them alive longer. 5 Arrow Attacks can be brought per stage, so if you want, you may even use all of them at the very last stage of a rather difficult quest to end one - or all! - of these bosses’ lives! Just be sure your Forge is up to date and you have a lot of Crude Iron, String, and Irons to start producing this amazing battle item!
Why Arrow Attack is Great for…
- Dealing 100 damage to all enemies and making them less accurate
Get Arrow Attack if...
- You’re fighting tough bosses/Titans
- Your Forge is up to Level 4
- You have the materials (1 Crude Iron, 1 String, 2,100 Iron per arrow)

12. Bear Banner
In the name of the Paw!
What if you want your heroes to be stronger but don’t have one who can give this buff? Then it’s Bear Banner to the rescue!
This item gives all heroes +25% attack for 4 turns, which is always awesome if you want a headstart in kicking the enemies’ butts or delivering the final killing blow to the boss. You can bring 5 of them per stage too; time their use well and you may just enjoy the attack up for a whopping 20 turns! Just be sure your Forge is up to Level 6 and you have some Metal Ores, Crypt Mushroom, Crystal Shard, as well as 5,790 Iron to make your own Bear Banner!
Why Bear Banner is Great for…
- Giving all heroes +25% attack for 4 turns
Get Bear Banner if...
- You’re fighting tough bosses/Titans
- Your Forge is up to Level 6
- You have the materials (1 Metal Ore, 1 Crypt Mushroom, 1 Crystal Shard, 5,790 Iron per banner)

11. Axe Attack
It’s a Body Spray in a sense…
Just like the Arrow Attack, Axe Attack gives a debuff and damages all the enemies, all at once!
This fantastic item is a must to use when fighting tough bosses and/or Titans, particularly because of its 200 damage to the enemies as well as giving them -20% attack for 6 turns. As you can bring 5 of them per stage, it means an instant 1000 damage to all enemies if used consecutively! This is why we love unleashing them at the final stages of quests since that’s where the toughest bosses are. If used for fighting Titans, however, it’s best to space out the usage so that the -20% attack stays far, far longer. Begin crafting this item when your Forge is at level 8 and you have Metal Ores, Crypt Mushrooms, and Hardwood Lumbers lying around - your heroes will thank you for it!
Why Axe Attack is Great for…
- Giving all enemies 200 damage and -20% attack for 6 turns
Get Axe Attack if...
- You’re fighting tough bosses/Titans
- Your Forge is up to Level 8
- You have the materials (1 Metal Ore, 1 Crypt Mushroom, 1 Hardwood Lumber, 11,900 Iron per axe)

10. Mana Potion
Even bluer for you!
The Minor Mana Potion’s big brother, Mana Potions are valuable items to have with you at all times!
This item allows one hero to regain 60% mana, which is definitely useful especially if RNG is against you in the battle. You can only bring 5 of them with you, so use them sparingly and wisely considering their limit! We like using them on healers especially if the team’s on the brink of defeat, to be honest. This valuable battle item can be produced provided your Forge is Level 10 and you also have Potent Leaves, Grimoire Dust, and Midnight Roots among your loot!
Why Mana Potion is Great for…
- Making one hero regain 60% mana
Get Mana Potion if...
- Your Forge is up to Level 10
- You have the materials (1 Potent Leaves, 1 Grimoire Dust, and 1 Midnight Roots, 21,500 Food per potion)

9. Super Antidotes
The wings make it better!
Super Antidotes are almost the same as antidotes except they’re supersized. For convenience? Sure!
Like antidotes, these mega versions remove all dispellable status ailments. But unlike their little brothers, these Super Antidotes also make all heroes regain 150 HP alongside the cleanse! This means they may take the place of any healing potion you might think of bringing with you on your journey. You can only use 5 of them per stage though, so keep the limit in mind if you choose to bring this version instead of its cheaper sibling. You can start making these items if your Forge is at Level 11, and you have Firestones and Grimoire Dust in your inventory.
Why Super Antidotes is Great for…
- Cleansing dispellable status ailments
- Making all heroes regain 150 HP
Get Super Antidotes if...
- Your Forge is up to Level 11
- You have the materials (2 Firestones and 1 Grimoire Dust, 27,300 Food per antidote)
- You’ll be facing ailment-inflicting enemies/bosses/Titans or fighting in Special Stages where heroes suffer ailments regularly
- You don’t have a Cleanser in your lineup

8. Bomb Attack
Meteors!
We love our arrows, we love our axes, and we definitely, definitely love our bombs!
Like its other offensive counterparts, Bomb Attack gives a debuff alongside its 300 damage: it grants the enemies -25% attack over 6 turns. We love pairing it with either the Axe or Dragon Attack so that the damage to all enemies just piles up! They are particularly useful to unleash when facing tough Titans or hard bosses, as using 5 of them consecutively means 1500 instant damage - which can definitely dent any HP. With its usefulness comes the increase in the materials you need to use, particularly Iron - you’ll need 33,900 for each bomb. They can be crafted once your Forge is at Level 12 and you have Metal Ores, Midnight Roots, and Sunspire Feathers in your inventory!
Why Axe Attack is Great for…
- Giving all enemies -25% attack and 300 damage
Get Axe Attack if...
- You’re fighting tough bosses/Titans
- Your Forge is up to Level 12
- You have the materials (1 Metal Ores, 1 Midnight Roots, and 1 Sunspire Feathers, 33,900 Iron per bomb)

7. Dragon Attack
Dragons galore!
Just by its name alone, you know this item is epic with a capital E.
Dragon Attack is all about hurting all enemies, making it one of our favorite Battle Items ever. It gives all enemies 400 damage and makes them receive 132 damage over 6 turns, too. Sweet! 5 of them consecutively? Instant -2000 HP to a tough Titan or Boss. It’s almost like having a 6th hero on your team, to be honest! Be prepared with your resources though: each Dragon is worth 70,800 Iron alongside a Sunspire Feather, Dragon Bone, and Hardwood Lumber, all at Forge Level 16!
Why Dragon Attack is Great for…
- Giving all enemies 400 damage plus 132 damage over 6 turns
Get Dragon Attack if...
- You’re fighting tough bosses/Titans
- Your Forge is up to Level 16
- You have the materials (1 Sunspire Feather, 1 Dragon Bone, and 2 Hardwood Lumber, 70,800 Iron per dragon)

6. Time Stop
If only time can really be stopped!
With this one? Enemies can definitely be stopped from using their Special Skills, making them less powerful than usual!
Time Stop makes all enemies lose 100% of their mana and delays their normal attack by 3 turns as well - which means it’s extremely useful when fighting Quest bosses where you face up to 3 uber-powerful enemies all at once. Hey, for maximum trolling effect, you may even wait until their mana’s juuuuuust about full before using a Time Stop and boom. Their mana’s back to 0 in a flash! Your resources, especially your Iron, will take a beating when crafting it - each Time Stop costs 96,600 Iron plus Dragon Bone, Metal Ore, and Oil at Level 18 Forge. But the amount of trolling this gives you makes spending worth it!
Why Time Stop is Great for…
- Making all enemies lose 100% mana and delaying their normal attacks by 3 turns
Get Time Stop if...
- You’re fighting tough bosses/Titans
- Your Forge is up to Level 18
- You have the materials (1 Dragon Bone, 1 Metal Ore, and 4 Oil, 96,600 Iron per Time Stop)
Time Stop details: link
5. Tornado
A literal force of nature!
What’s better than giving one hero mana? Giving all 5 heroes mana, of course!
A single Tornado gives all heroes 40% mana - which is amazing all on its own and makes it one of the best, if not the best, mana-giving battle items ever. However, the ‘tornado’ part comes when the board is reshuffled, meaning a chance for it to align to your elemental needs if you need it to. Board isn’t up to your liking? Reshuffle it up to 5 times until it is! With how useful it is, is crafting it expensive, you ask? Heck, YES. Each Tornado, craftable at Forge Level 19, is worth a hefty 116,000 Iron plus an Orichalcum Nugget, Grimoire Dust, and Crude Iron. But considering its pros though, the cons aren’t even worth considering.
Why Tornado is Great for…
- Making all allies gain 40% mana
- Reshuffling the board
Get Tornado if...
- Your Forge is up to Level 19
- You have the materials (1 Orichalcum Nugget, 1 Grimoire Dust, and 4 Crude Iron, 116,000 per Tornado)

4. Panacea
The Cure-all for Legends!
And now we come to items crafted not in the Forge, but in The Hunter’s Lodge!
Like its name, Panacea does a lot of wonderful things to all your heroes. It makes them regain 500 HP, cures them of status ailments, and gives them +30% attack and +30% defense for 3 turns! If your team is on the brink of death, then a single Panacea can bring them back to fighting form in no time. While you can bring 5 of them to battles, crafting them is no easy feat, as the materials needed only drop from Titans such as Titan Eye, Titan Egg, and Titan Fang. Hunter’s Lodge should also be at Level 4 before you can start crafting these!
Why Panacea is Great for…
- Giving all heroes 500 HP
- Curing them of status ailments
- Buffing them with +30% attack and +30% defense
Get Panacea if...
- Your Hunter’s Lodge is at Level 4
- You have the required Titan drops (1 Titan Eye, 2 Titan Egg, and 2 Titan Fang, 142,000 Food)

3. Giant Harpoon
Fish Bait, but for Titans
But how do you get Titan Parts in the first place? By using a Giant Harpoon on it!
This Battle Item is exclusively designed for Titans. By using it, the Titan will get 750 damage and -20% attack for 6 turns, and after its defeat, it will drop Titan Parts that can be used in crafting all sorts of useful things in the Hunter’s Lodge. A Giant Harpoon can be researched and crafted soon as Hunter’s Lodge is at Level 1 using 63,000 Food, 94,600 Iron, plus Common Herbs, Large Bone, and Clean Cloth.
Why Giant Harpoon is Great for…
- Making Titans drop Titan Parts
- Giving one enemy 750 damage and -20% attack for 6 turns
Get Giant Harpoon if...
- Your Hunter’s Lodge is at Level 1
- You have the required materials (5 Common Herbs, 1 Large Bone, and 1 Clean Cloth, 63,300 Food, 94,600 Iron)
- You want Titans to drop Titan Parts for yourself and your Alliance Members

2. Time Freeze
An icy way to end things!
Do you know how to improve a Time Stop? By upgrading it to a Time Freeze, naturally!
The two items are similar in that by using them, all enemies lose 100% of their mana and have their normal attacks delayed. However! Time Freeze takes trolling a step further by adding something more: all enemies can’t gain mana for 3 turns, too! And we all know via Proteus and Hel that anything that can stop enemies from gaining mana is a gift from the gods. And, like gods, these Time Freezes are holy-moley-pricey considering each is worth 203,000 Iron alongside Titan Egg, Titan Heart, and Titan Spine, which can be crafted once your Hunter’s Lodge is at level 10. Time Freeze? More like Troll Freeze!
Why Time Freeze is Great for…
- Making all enemies lose 100% mana
- Delaying their normal attacks
- Stopping all enemies from gaining mana for 3 turns
Get Time Freeze if...
- You’re fighting tough bosses/Titans
- Your Hunter’s Lodge is up to Level 10
- You have the materials (4 Titan Egg, 1 Titan Heart, and 2 Titan Spine, 203,000 Iron per Time Freeze)

1. Miracle Scroll
The prophecy states: VICTORY
What’s an item so valuable you can only bring one of it per battle? Why, our pick for the Top Spot, of course!
A hero isn’t good if they’re dead - and that’s why the Miracle Scroll is the most valuable Battle Item for us, considering its gift of reviving all heroes and giving them 400 HP. This item should be used only during extremely precarious situations, like when two or more heroes on your end have already been defeated. We like pairing this item with a Tornado, as a healer in your lineup, if there’s any, can bring all heroes up to top shape just by using both items consecutively! It can only be crafted once your Forge is at Level 20 via spending 132,300 Food and using Meteor Fragments, Midnight Roots, and Crude Iron - but considering it gives your heroes another chance to fight? It’s definitely worth the price and its place on our list!
Why Miracle Scroll is Great for…
- Reviving all fallen heroes
- Giving them 400 HP
Get Miracle Scroll if...
- You’re fighting tough bosses/Titans
- Your Forge is up to Level 20
- You have the materials (1 Meteor Fragments, 1 Midnight Roots, and 4 Crude Iron, 132,300 Iron per scroll)
