How to field this hero
Shanks is an S-tier pick — the kind of carry you build your whole team around. In Anime Stars that means: star-level it first (higher stars raise its damage ceiling), chain your strongest Relics onto it, and only then spend leftover materials on the rest of the roster. Because relic locations are found by exploring each island, push world clears to get the gear this hero actually wants.
Los gameplays guía de 2026 confirman el ciclo alrededor de este héroe: lo obtienes con giros del Gacha, subes su nivel de estrellas y lo evolucionas para seguir limpiando mundos, y usas Reliquias (que se encuentran en cada isla) y el auto-farming para avanzar. Las probabilidades exactas y tablas de stats las reporta la comunidad, no el desarrollador.
