Stats:

HEALTH

Health determines your health pool, ie, how much damage you can take before dying. Each point of Health gives you 60 HP.

ATTACK
Attack determines how much damage you do with every hit. Every point of attack gives 1 point of damage.

SHIELD
Shield determines how many attacks you can block. Every point of Shield gives 1 point on your block meter.

MAGIC
Magic determines how much damage or healing you do with magic spells. Every point of Magic gives 10 points of damage.

Defensive Moves
There are three types of defense: block, parry and dodge.

BLOCK
You can block by holding in the center area of the screen. You can only block if you have points in your block meter. Attacks remove points from this meter. Any attacks that charge can’t be blocked.

PARRY
You can parry by swiping the screen exactly when an enemy attacks. The parry break will allow you enough time to unleash a combo, so it is very useful, but hard to pull off.

DODGE
You can dodge by tapping your finger on the left or right areas of the screen when an enemy attacks. Dodge in the direction an attack is coming from. Punches cannot be dodged, so make sure to block these.

Combinations
1) Huge Hit (3-hit combo)
Left, Right, Left
The final hit in this combination will do 2x damage.

2) Mega Hit (4-hit combo)
Left, Left, Right, Right
The final hit in this combination will do 2.5x damage.

3) Ultra Hit (5-hit combo)
Left, Right, Up, Down, Left
The final hit in this combination will do 3x damage.

Scratches and Stabs
Scratches occur when you hit an enemy exactly when they attack. It does only 1/4 of the damage but can be used well versus slower opponents.

Stabs occur when you hit an enemy during special points their animation. Tap the white circle to stab (2x damage)and your opponent will be vulnerable, so throw in a combo.

Cheats & Unlockables

Unlock The Infinity Blade
Beat the God King to unlock the Infinity Blade in the store. It costs a huge amount of money but does +200 damage.

Cheap Leveling Up
Mastering weapons gives you stat points you can use to level up. Cheap weapons can be mastered much faster than expensive ones, so though the expensive weapons may be tempting, you should purchase cheap stuff early on and master it first to take advantage of the stat points. Then, you can use better, more expensive weappons to level up near the end of the game instead of crappy, cheap weapons.

Fast Money
Here is a great way to increase your Infinity Sword fund. You must be able to beat the God King before attempting this.

Step 1:
Go to Options while in game and Restart to Bloodline 1.

Step 2:
Get defeated by the God King and wait until you get to you saying the following, “Father, I will avenge you”

Step 3:
Get to the God King as fast as possible, skipping chests unless you walk by them and you don’t have to fight anyone.

Step 4:
Eventually you come to a door where you go straight or to the right. Click on the door and go through it.

Step 5:
Fight the last enemiess and you should now be at the God King.

Step 6:
Kill him whatever way possible!

Step 7:
You now should get between 8000-11000 gold and a item.

Step 8:
Sell all the items you have more then 1 of this to increase your gold.

Step 9:
Repeat until you lose — at level 150 it becomes significantly less fruitful due to the boss’s difficulty.

Note: Once you get around Bloodline 10 that’s when you want to fight as many monsters as possible since you get between 2000-6000 gold.

Double Bloodline
Make sure do every bloodline twice (get killed by the dark knight and restart the castle. you keep all xp, gold and items gained during the castle.)

Tips

Defense Tips
Each type of defense will disable your opponent for a length of time relative to the move’s difficulty. Parrying, being the most difficult, disables your opponent the longest. This middle ground is occupied by dodging, and blocking offers the shortest window of attack opportunity.

Combos
Combos also make an important appearance in Infinity Blade in that they offer a way to make extra XP and land some additional hits on your enemy while they are in a vulnerable state. To do so, rapidly swipe at your enemy while they are dazed and you should land a quick combo.

Super Attack
Super attacks are a quick and easy way to land a devastating attack on an enemy. In the upper left corner of your screen, you should see a small blue icon with a sword in the center. Gradually as you fight and conquer enemies, this meter will fill up. When full, tap it to unleash a heavy attack on your enemy.

Equipment XP
Weapons, helmets, shields, armor, and rings all earn XP when equipped that contribute to your overall XP. Each item can be mastered, which will earn you a skill point but will also lock that item from earning additional XP. Because of this, it is wise to upgrade each piece of equipment once it has been mastered.

Switch Weapons
Once a weapon is mastered it no longer gives you XP. So switch up your inventory from time to time to get your character to the highest levels. Mastered items double in value – sell them in the store if you need more gold.

Stat Points Guide
The best way to spend your stat points is::

MAGIC:
20 to 30 total points. Use this for magic early, but for healing late game as all mobs are immune.

ATTACK:
30 to 40 total points. This can be low as the infinity blade will give you 200 and no matter how much you increase it.

SHIELD and HEALTH:
Half points remaining in both. Increase shield in last half as the game is easy early.
