❓ Viking Rise FAQ

Quick answers to the most common Viking Rise questions: account, mechanics, heroes, buildings and events.

Account & start

How do I delete my Viking Rise account?
The account is removed in game settings: avatar → Settings → Account → delete account (the request is processed over a few days; signing in during that window cancels the deletion). No button? Link an IGG account and retry, or contact game support via Settings → Help.
How do I delete my character and start over?
You cannot delete a single character — only the whole account. Starting over is easier on a new kingdom: create a character on a fresh server by switching accounts, or wait for a new kingdom to open.
How do I play Viking Rise on PC?
The game has an official PC client (IGG), plus Steam and Epic Games. Full guide — "Viking Rise on PC".
Where do I enter gift codes?
In game: avatar → Settings → "Gift Code". Current codes with the date we checked them — on the "Gift codes" page.

Mechanics

What is KvK in Viking Rise?
KvK ("Kingdom vs Kingdom", Kingdom Mayhem) is a seasonal kingdom-vs-kingdom war: servers fight for points and rewards. It runs in seasons (S1, S2… SX scenarios of ~40 days). Several kingdoms are moved to a separate map and fight over points, wonders and rewards until the merit tally at the end.
What is troop HP?
HP is a unit's health points, the third core stat alongside ATK (attack) and DEF (defense). Higher HP means the squad survives more damage. Exact stats of every tier — in the troop tier comparison.
How do I enable auto-join (auto-rally)?
Auto-join adds your troops to tribe rallies automatically. It works only inside a tribe: enable it in the rally window, set the number of auto-participations and the hospital-fill threshold — auto-join stops itself once the threshold is passed.
How do I change tribe?
Leave your current tribe (tribe menu → "Leave tribe") and apply to a new one. Note: on leaving, all your troops in tribe buildings and on members' territories are recalled immediately.
How do I move to another kingdom?
Via kingdom migration: you need migration passes, an open migration window and a kingdom that matches by might. Full breakdown — slots, pass cost, season rewards — on the "Kingdom migration" page.
How do I make a farm (farm account)?
A farm is a second account that feeds resources to your main. Create it by switching accounts in settings (a new IGG login) on your own kingdom. Resources move via rallies/attacks by arrangement — there is no in-game mail transfer.

Heroes & skills

How do I get heroes?
Main routes: summoning at the Divination Hut (drop rates — in the knowledge base), hero shards from events and shops, season rewards. Duplicate heroes turn into their shards and go toward stars.
Which heroes are best and who to level?
See the commander catalog and pick optimal pairs for your season with the march builder.
Best hero pairings — where to look?
The "Commander pairings" section: proven pairs with skill builds by slot. For your own barracks and season — the march builder.
How do I use a legendary skill shard?
Skill shards accumulate toward a specific skill: 100 shards unlock the skill itself, then shards go toward its stars (ascension). Duplicates of skills you already own convert to shards automatically.
Yggdrasil Dew — what is it and how to use it?
An item for mount skills: spent when learning/resetting a mount skill. Used in the mount profile; when you are short, the game tells you "not enough: Yggdrasil Dew".

Buildings & progress

What are the Chief Hall requirements?
To upgrade the Hall you need other buildings one level lower (Walls, Academy, Divination Hut, Tribe Hall — depending on level). Exact requirements and cost of each level — in the knowledge base.
What is the max building level?
Level 50: levels 1–25 are normal, 26–50 are star stages (I-1…V-5) paid with Dragon Crystals.
Where do I get the War Horn?
The War Horn is a required item to upgrade the Battle Hall. It drops from events and packs — watch the activity calendar and event shops.

Events

Serpent Spirit Potion — what is it?
An alchemy event: collect "Potion-brewing Guides" and magic dust, brew potions by recipes and get rewards. Materials drop from activities during the event window.
Reign of the Vikings — what event is it?
A recurring development event: stages with tasks (building, research, training, might) and rewards for each stage. It comes in cycles — check the schedule in the event calendar.
