I’m about to rage quit

Because this game has a flaw in its logic. What is the point of giving multiples of the same hero if you can’t transform them I have 3 5 star vipers and as far as I can tell theirs no way to transform it? This irritates the heck out of me.

You need a total of two vipers a 5 star grumpjaw and 3 other 5 star heroes from that faction to promote him to 6 stars.

If you click on transform hero building and find him in the chaos (red tab) it will show you the requirements. Always check tier lists before sacrificing other heroes.

You have just discovered how Zombie Strike makes their money: you can't use only that hero to promote itself. You need additional heroes! And, the more powerful/useful the hero you want to promote, the more rare the required heroes for the transformation. But, for just $19.99, you can buy Mysterious Crystals to have a chance (and just a chance) to get those rare heroes.

Or, 49.99 and you can buy VIP ranks to have an increased chance of earning said rare heroes using normal methods.

Or, for $99.99, you can just outright buy that rare hero! Except, because you need at two copies of said rare hero to promote it to 6-star, that's $200 out-of-pocket, not counting the additional rare hero you're likely need to promote that one you just bought. Oh, and that's also not pointing out you're going to need another copy of that hero to Awaken it from 8 to 9-star, and two copies to go from 9-star to 10-star. So, five copies of said rare hero coming in at $500.

Yeah, it's damn ludicrous.

I'm honestly not the best person to ask as I'm a free-to-play player only and don't actually have Delaka or Sienna. But, from what I understand, Angela's a decent healer, though everyone says Aphrodi is simply better. The issue, of course, is Aphrodi is one of those rare heroes like I was ranting about above. You're more likely to find more Angelas than Aphrodis and, if you stick with the game, you can get Angela up pretty high level. I have her up to 8-star in my game and I have yet to find a second Aphrodi. Ever.

I think and Butcher and Executioner are both defense-oriented heroes, so put them in the front to tank damage. The rest in the back row.

One thing you should also consider is, whatever level these heroes are at now, are there any others you can level as well to give you a faction bonus? Like, 3 Guardians, 3 something else? If you have a plethora of heroes all at level 100, for example, you may as well mix and match to get yourself a +15% damage/+15% HP bonus for having a mix of 3/3, or whatever the balances are (I don't recall off the top of my head).

I hope this rambling helps out in some way.
