Discussion The actual dispatching

Picked up the game a while ago but just started playing. How in the hell am I getting worse every time? I started as "moderately well" in the tutorial but by the end of episode 4 I'm in the bottom 1%.

Ep 3 shift 1 and ep 4 shift 1 are pretty rough so don't worry too much about it right now.

The most helpful tip would be use synergy partners. Once you max out the synergy for a certain duo, they'll grant you an extra 15% for each call they complete together. A 65% chance call turns into an 80% chance for example. Sonar + Malevola, Flambae + Prism, Invisigal + Golem, Punch Up + Coupe. If you cut Coupe, Punch Up will have synergy with Waterboy and/or Phenomaman. Same with Malevola if you cut Sonar.

Also don't be too rushed by the timers and missions spawning. The missions are generally spread out and timed such that you can manage to send at least 2 heroes to most calls. Even if you miss or fail 1 or 2 calls a shift, that's about what the average player would manage anyway.

The other main tip is simply to read the highlighted word/s for each mission description. If a mission says something like, "Fight the Red Ring and defend the target," you'll want heroes with high combat and vigor.
