Part 2: Healing

The most important part of the battle: Healing. Below, you will find how to heal your troops as quickly and efficiently as possible. 🏥

Batch Healing

If you get injured soldiers, don’t heal them all at once. Heal 700–1300 at a time and click “Help”. Alliance auto-help will heal them immediately. Repeat this and you can heal up to 50,000 injuries within 1 minute.
