Buying the unicorn mount as soon as Chapter 2 opens keeps my shamans alive—the speed boost lets bears hold the lane forever.

Meteor into Thunder totem deletes necromancers hiding behind ogres; finish with Holy Shield so Paladog never loses tempo.

Stack the granary relic with eco blessings and you’ll cap food at 150+ in Act 3, which means angel knights on every spawn.

Dragon breath melts siege carts, but switch to the ice wand for ghost waves—the freeze buys time for squirrel archers to shred them.

Survival mode is all about mana cycling; rotate Paladog's three spell presets and you’ll always have a heal or stun ready.

Hamster chariots plus Healing Bell is my favorite combo—splash damage with nonstop sustain beats lich swarms every time.

Tap retreat when Paladog gets stunned; kiting backwards resets cooldowns without dropping the aura on your frontline.

Invest in shaman gems once chain lightning unlocks—every twenty seconds the whole undead pack evaporates.
