Conquest P5
Legion of Frostborne is the ultimate competition between the Infinite worlds of Infinity Kingdom. Servers are matched togeather and thrown into a shared new map where they battle for weeks on end to claim the gnome capital of Ymir and ultimate victory. For this guide, we shall instead look at the progression structure of Legion of Frostborne as well as the rewards available.
Legion of Frostborne is structured into seasons, the server worlds of Infinity Kingdom are not on the same progressional level, with almost two years between the oldest and youngest server, it would never be a fair fight. As such, we have a progression structure where all worlds are grouped into battlegroups and goes through three seasons of SvS before being added to the final battlegroup “Conquest”. During conquest, your server progresses through phases where rewards will change slightly for your server based on the number of Conquest seasons you have participated in.
Legion of Frostborne have very very powerful rewards for all participants. These include Ability Stones for the locked Tower of Knowledge Skills such as Spell Disintegration and Wind Rage, to name a few. These Stones are available both in the seasonal SvS shop to be purchased for Cold Coins as well as in the SvS Ancient Chest loot boxes which can be bought with Cold Coins and Gems. Besides Ability Stones for ToK skills, we are also able to unlock new unique Immortals as we progress through the seasons of SvS. Each of the seasons including conquest phases hold new Immortal Fragments for you to unlock. After completing a season you can also access these Immortals in the Bundle Recharge Shop and you unlock new Immortals in the King of the Hill event (during the first seasons).

Let us dive a bit deeper and review each of these rewards.
Tower of Knowledge unlocks
Spell Disintegrator is the main reward from this season of SvS along with Trajan. It is another Fire-season and it is now that your fire team can truely take off and do insane things if you main it. This is the single best magic damage passive in the game and you always want to unlock this if you are doing anything with a mage. I highly recommend that you have stacked all cold coin from previous seasons and max Spell Disintegrator asap.
Sniper is a powerful skill and one that many players are using in their main setup. It is particularly strong in back-line pressure and AOE setups.This is because the skill procs dealing damage to the target furthest away from you meaning you will always secure backline damage from this ability’s procs. It works extreemly well on Immortals such as Gilgamesh, Khan, Atalanta, Bathory, Yoshi.
Stormeye is also in the shop for cold coin. It is a magic skill which work well in any mage-dependent setup. It is a very good skill and one you want to get if you use more than one mage. However, it is not as strong as Spell Disintegration which will be available next season, and as such I would advise most players to keep stacking Cold Coin even if you rely on a mage in your main.
Siren’s Gaze is an interesting skill, one which I have never seen in play for real thus far. However, that does not mean it is bad. While I don’t think it is amongst the best skills in the game, I can see some specialized builds make very good use of this skill. E.g. in combo with Void Realm or with Life-Link on a tank Immortal.
Full Coverage is a lot harder to get, since it is from Ancient Chests only. This means you will not be able to get it finished anytime soon. It will take a long time. However, it is a decent skill to get for certain setups.
If you are running a Fire team, I would encourage you to get this ability skill eventually. You will run it on Hippolyta for massive damage in a crit-regen build. That being said, it is a solid skills for any physical Immortal, however one you want to run paired with high energy regen builds with Adrenaline Rush, Rage Blessing, Energy Burst.
Victorious Pursuit is an interesting skill. While it is not being used a lot, it does have it’s use cases and can be very powerful in the right build. The problem with this skill is getting a high enough count of damage instances for it do stack it’s damage buff. However, once you get 10×5% = 50% damage buff active, it is extreemly powerful. The problem of triggering it means that it is only viable on extreem attack speed builds (maybe on an Alex in a hybrid setup) and for niche Immortals with extreem amounts of damage instances. This would be a Hippolytta with unique artifact and energy regen build or a Gilgamesh with high-dmg instance passives such as DoT’s or DB.
Berserker is the most nerf’ed skill of all in Infinity Kingdom. Since it’s release it has been nerfed 3 or 4 times by massive amounts. However, it remains a very powerful passive in certain situations. It should be used on an Immortal with e.g. a unique artifact effect that makes it’s ultimate into a passive ability (thus no downside from regen loss) and one that likes attack speed. I for one, am looking forward to some day get this for my Barca in my wind-earth hybrid.
Wind Rage is a highly valued skill. In certain setups it can provide rediculess value, like on a well crafted Alex build you can get very high value from this passive. It basically works extreemly well with anything that relies on normal damage, attack speed and normal attacks as a trigger (combo, cleave, heavenly thunder, etc.).
Immortal’s SvS rewards
Louis
Louis is a very interesting Immortal
Louis IX stands out as a unique magical frontline damage dealer. His presence allows players to run two magical damage dealers in their lightning setups, enhancing the overall effectiveness of lightning teams. Louis IX can contribute additional debuffs and magical damage, making him a valuable addition for those seeking diversity in their strategies.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi
First of all, we are finally able to replace King-Arthur with an Immortal that provides solid synergizing buffs and utility to our wind marches. What can wind really do well in Infinity Kingdom? It can counter holy. That is the role of a wind march in my opinion. Why you ask? Because Wind has a combination of strong sustained healing/utility, insane dodge stats to counter the many physical damage instances of holy, has access to wounds, and is excellent at back-row peeling the enemy. All of this makes is perfect counter to holy, if you build it right. Building it right, means running a dodge-exploiting build, taking advantage of Wind’s superior dodge chance to counter the physical damage dealers. Since physical damage can be dodges, we are able to massively reduce the amount of damage taken.
This is where Toyotomi comes into the picture. Not only does he provide an extreemly strong dodge buff to our build, we are also getting a very very strong defensive and offensive buff every time we dodge. Since we are running a dodge build, in training grounds testing I have 90% uptime on Myojin Defense and Damage buff! That is MASSIVE for any setup.
On the drawback side, you do HAVE to run this as a dodge build. That means you are weak against shadow and fire as well as other magic heavy setups. Moreover, you MUST run Toyotomi with Missleading, After Image in order to get any effect. If you are able to swap in Manco for Barca running Toyotomi + Manco + Atalanta + Qin, works very very well to counter holy setups.
King of the Hill Progression
With the first SvS seasons, server progress is meassured by SvS seasons. As such, the release of new Immortals in the King of the Hill event relies on your server’s SvS progression.
After finishing Season 3 every single Immortal in rotation is available. No additional Immortals are being added thus far.
