How to unlock Reinier in AFK Journey
You can unlock Reinier in AFK Journey by:
- Recruiting at the Stargaze Station in the Mystical House, setting Reinier as your Hero Choice for a guaranteed pull after 40 attempts.
- Purchasing their Soul Sigil from the Emporium’s Guild Store for 30,000 Guild Medals.
I highly recommend you join an active guild and focus on the Guild Store path if you’re a free-to-play player. This strategy requires you to complete Guild Quests for Guild Medals, which are capped weekly according to your guild’s level, or to participate in Guild Challenges collectively with your guildmates. Since Guild Medals from challenges are not capped—they’re a one-time bonus—they represent the best way to accelerate your Guild Medals farming. Otherwise, you’ll be restricted to earning just a few thousand Guild Medals every week, and it could take six to eight weeks to unlock Reinier.
Unlocking Reinier at the Stargaze Station is even more challenging. You first need to have completed 400 recruitments across Rate Up, All-Hero, and Epic Recruitment collectively to unlock the Stargaze Station. Then, you must use Stellar Crystals to attempt recruiting them at a 3.25-percent chance. Stellar Crystals are an extremely rare resource to obtain for free. Even in the Limited Bundles at the Trolley for premium currency, they are quite expensive. That’s why I recommend focusing on daily Guild gameplay to unlock Reinier, as otherwise, you’ll have to spend a significant amount of real money to acquire Stellar Crystals for attempts at the Stargaze Station.
Best teams for Reinier in AFK Journey
Team | Hero 1 | Hero 2 | Hero 3 | Hero 4 | Hero 5 |
Offensive | Reinier | Thoran | Cecia | Smokey & Meerky | Vala |
Defensive | Reinier | Antandra | Brutus | Smokey & Meerky | Vala |
Reinier, being a Hypogean hero, fits into many team compositions to activate higher Faction bonuses, as Hypogean characters count as a wildcard Faction to trigger this effect. The two teams suggested above consider that Reinier can either teleport a high-damage hero like Vala to destroy the backline or use a beefy tank like Brutus to distract the ranged carries. Despite these strategies, you still need a solid frontline tank like Antandra and Thoran to withstand the damage and consistent healing from a support like Smokey & Meerky to survive the fight.
