Valeria in Whiteout Survival is a State of Power Expert known as the High Marshal. Her skills improve Preparation Phase points, Personal Point rewards, Sunfire Tokens, State of Power Shop options, Battle Phase troop statistics, and rally capacity.
Valeria also provides permanent Troops Lethality and Troops Health through Affinity. However, her strongest combat skills are extremely expensive, so she should not be upgraded in the same way as a daily growth or reward-focused Expert.
This guide covers Valeria’s Affinity bonuses, skills, Talent, upgrade costs, recommended skill order, practical stopping points, free-to-play value, and whether she is worth building for State of Power.
Upgrade Well Prepared and Radiant Honor first for State of Power rewards. Battle Concerto is the better combat priority for most fighters, while Crushing Force is mainly for rally leaders. Maxing every Valeria skill costs 48,718,200 Learning EXP and 345,000 Books of Knowledge.
Valeria Expert Overview
| Valeria information | Details |
|---|---|
| Expert title | High Marshal |
| Expert group | Second Expert group |
| Main specialty | State of Power Preparation and Battle Phases |
| Maximum Affinity bonuses | +20% Troops Lethality and +20% Troops Health |
| Reward skills | Well Prepared and Radiant Honor |
| Combat skills | Battle Concerto and Crushing Force |
| Talent | Conqueror’s Spirit |
| Best for | Competitive State of Power players, rally leaders, PvP accounts, and active Alliances |
| General priority | Medium for casual players and high for serious State of Power participants |
Valeria does not enter a hero formation or troop march. Her bonuses remain active through the Expert and Dawn Academy systems.
Most of her strongest effects apply only during State of Power. Therefore, an account that participates casually may receive better early value from a broader growth or Alliance reward Expert.
How to Unlock Valeria
Valeria belongs to the second group of Experts. She becomes available after the state reaches the required Expert-progression stage.
To unlock her:
- Reach Furnace Level 25 and unlock the Expert system.
- Progress through Tundra Trek until the second Expert group becomes available.
- Encounter Valeria and begin earning Affinity.
- Use Frontier Trek to target her after she becomes a known Expert.
- Reach 1,000 Affinity and complete the required story progression.
- Continue raising her Relationship Level with gifts and Expert Sigils.
Expert skill research becomes available after the required Affinity progression is reached. The current in-game Dawn Academy screen should be treated as the final source for each unlock condition.
Is Valeria Good in Whiteout Survival?
Valeria is very good for players who take State of Power seriously.
Her main strengths include:
- More Preparation Phase points.
- Additional Personal Point reward tiers.
- More Sunfire Tokens from Medal Rewards.
- Additional State of Power Shop items.
- Up to 30% additional troop Lethality and Health during Battle Phase.
- Up to 150,000 additional rally capacity during Battle Phase.
- Up to 30% additional troop Attack and Defense through her Talent.
- Permanent Troops Lethality and Health from Affinity.
Nevertheless, Valeria has two major limitations. Her strongest effects are tied to one event, and both Level 20 skills require a very large amount of Books of Knowledge and Learning EXP.
| Player type | Valeria priority | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Casual State of Power participant | Low to medium | Reward skills may help, but the combat investment is difficult to justify |
| Free-to-play player | Medium | Useful reward milestones, but Level 20 skills are expensive |
| Competitive PvP player | High | Battle Concerto and the Talent provide major Battle Phase statistics |
| Rally leader | Very high | Crushing Force can add up to 150,000 rally capacity |
| Rally member | Medium to high | Battle Concerto is useful, but rally capacity provides less direct value |
| Growth-focused account | Low | Other Experts provide more frequent daily benefits |
Valeria Affinity Bonuses
Valeria’s Affinity increases Troops Lethality and Troops Health.
The bonuses begin at 2.10% and reach 20% at Affinity Level 100.
| Affinity level | Troops Lethality | Troops Health |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | +2.10% | +2.10% |
| 10 | +3.80% | +3.80% |
| 20 | +5.60% | +5.60% |
| 30 | +7.40% | +7.40% |
| 40 | +9.20% | +9.20% |
| 50 | +11.00% | +11.00% |
| 60 | +12.80% | +12.80% |
| 70 | +14.60% | +14.60% |
| 80 | +16.40% | +16.40% |
| 90 | +18.20% | +18.20% |
| 100 | +20.00% | +20.00% |
These permanent statistics are powerful. However, advancing Valeria only for Affinity statistics can consume resources that might unlock more useful reward skills on another Expert.
For most players, Affinity investment should support a specific Well Prepared, Radiant Honor, Battle Concerto, Crushing Force, or Talent milestone.
Whiteout Survival Valeria Skills
| Skill | Maximum level | Maximum effect | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Well Prepared | 10 | +20% Preparation Phase points and three Personal Point reward tiers | Most State of Power participants |
| Radiant Honor | 10 | +50 Sunfire Tokens and three additional Shop items | Shop and Expert-resource progression |
| Battle Concerto | 20 | +30% troop Lethality and Health during Battle Phase | Competitive fighters and rally members |
| Crushing Force | 20 | +150,000 rally capacity during Battle Phase | Rally leaders |
Valeria Upgrade Cost Summary
The two reward skills are relatively affordable compared with Valeria’s Level 20 combat skills.
| Skill | Maximum level | Total Learning EXP | Total Books of Knowledge |
|---|---|---|---|
| Well Prepared | 10 | 1,944,000 | 22,500 |
| Radiant Honor | 10 | 2,719,200 | 22,500 |
| Battle Concerto | 20 | 20,731,200 | 150,000 |
| Crushing Force | 20 | 23,323,800 | 150,000 |
| Full maximum | All skills | 48,718,200 | 345,000 |
The two reward skills together cost 4,663,200 Learning EXP and 45,000 Books. In comparison, fully upgrading both combat skills costs 44,055,000 Learning EXP and 300,000 Books.
These totals do not include Affinity gifts, Expert Sigils, or the time required to generate the necessary Learning EXP.
Well Prepared
Well Prepared improves State of Power Preparation Phase scoring and Personal Point rewards.
At Level 10, it provides:
- +20% Preparation Phase Point gains.
- Three additional daily Personal Point reward tiers.
Well Prepared Reward Breakpoints
| Skill level | Additional reward tier | Cumulative upgrade cost |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | 2 Sunfire Tokens, Sail of Conquest, 2 Fiery Hearts, and Learning Speedups | Starting level |
| Level 6 | 5 Sunfire Tokens, 200 Books, 2 Fiery Hearts, and Learning Speedups | 648,000 EXP and 7,500 Books |
| Level 10 | 10 Sunfire Tokens, 2 Common Expert Sigils, 2 Fiery Hearts, and Learning Speedups | 1,944,000 EXP and 22,500 Books |
Well Prepared is the safest first skill for most Valeria users. It improves scoring before the Battle Phase begins and adds useful Expert-development rewards.
Level 6 is a practical free-to-play target because it unlocks 200 Books of Knowledge without requiring the full Level 10 investment.
Radiant Honor
Radiant Honor improves Medal Rewards and adds items to the State of Power Shop.
At Level 10, it provides:
- 50 additional Sunfire Tokens when claiming Medal Rewards.
- Three additional State of Power Shop items.
Radiant Honor Shop Breakpoints
| Skill level | Added Shop item | Cumulative upgrade cost |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Random Chief Charm Material Chest, purchase limit 3 | Starting level |
| Level 6 | 10 Books of Knowledge, purchase limit 25 | 906,000 EXP and 7,500 Books |
| Level 10 | Common Expert Sigil, purchase limit 5 | 2,719,200 EXP and 22,500 Books |
Radiant Honor Level 6 is useful for players who regularly earn enough State of Power currency to purchase the additional Books.
Level 10 becomes more attractive when Common Expert Sigils are an important progression bottleneck. However, unlocking an item does not provide value unless you can afford to buy it.
Battle Concerto
Battle Concerto increases the Lethality and Health of all troops during the State of Power Battle Phase.
At Level 20, it provides:
- +30% Troops Lethality.
- +30% Troops Health.
This is Valeria’s most broadly useful combat skill. Lethality improves offensive pressure, while Health helps troops survive longer in rallies, garrisons, solo attacks, and objective battles.
Battle Concerto Milestone Costs
| Target level | Cumulative Learning EXP | Cumulative Books |
|---|---|---|
| 5 | 1,035,600 | 7,500 |
| 10 | 4,669,800 | 33,800 |
| 15 | 11,193,600 | 81,000 |
| 20 | 20,731,200 | 150,000 |
Most low spenders should treat Levels 5, 10, and 15 as review points. Compare the next cost with hero upgrades, Chief Gear, Charms, pets, troop research, and other Expert skills before continuing.
Crushing Force
Crushing Force increases rally capacity during the State of Power Battle Phase.
At Level 20, it provides up to 150,000 additional rally capacity.
This can be extremely valuable for a major rally leader. More capacity allows additional troops to join the rally, increasing its total combat strength.
However, a regular rally member receives much less value from personal rally-capacity research. Therefore, Crushing Force should usually follow Battle Concerto unless you consistently lead important rallies.
Crushing Force Milestone Costs
| Target level | Cumulative Learning EXP | Cumulative Books |
|---|---|---|
| 5 | 1,165,200 | 7,500 |
| 10 | 5,254,200 | 33,800 |
| 15 | 12,593,400 | 81,000 |
| 20 | 23,323,800 | 150,000 |
Valeria Talent: Conqueror’s Spirit
Conqueror’s Spirit is Valeria’s Talent Skill. It improves automatically as her Relationship Level increases rather than being upgraded through the four normal skill tables.
At Talent Level 11, it provides:
- +30% Troops Attack during the State of Power Battle Phase.
- +30% Troops Defense during the State of Power Battle Phase.
Combined with Battle Concerto, a fully developed Valeria can provide large bonuses to Attack, Defense, Lethality, and Health during the event.
Reaching that point requires significant Affinity and Expert Sigil investment. Casual players should not chase the final Talent level solely for an event they rarely play.

Recommended Valeria Stopping Points
| Player type | Suggested stopping point | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Casual player | Well Prepared Level 1 or 6 | Provides basic reward value without large costs |
| Free-to-play State of Power participant | Both reward skills at Level 6 | Unlocks Books and improved reward tiers |
| Active low spender | Both reward skills at Level 10 and Battle Concerto Level 5 or 10 | Combines rewards with manageable combat progression |
| Competitive fighter | Battle Concerto Level 15 or 20 | Provides substantial Battle Phase statistics |
| Major rally leader | Battle Concerto and Crushing Force Level 20 | Maximizes combat statistics and rally capacity |
| Player who skips State of Power | Minimal investment | Most of Valeria’s benefits would remain inactive |
Should Free-to-Play Players Upgrade Valeria?
Free-to-play players can benefit from Valeria, but she should rarely be the first Expert they maximize.
Her first two skills provide achievable reward milestones. By contrast, the Level 20 combat skills require 300,000 Books when maxed together.
A practical free-to-play strategy is:
- Unlock Valeria through normal Trek progression.
- Raise Well Prepared to Level 6.
- Raise Radiant Honor to Level 6.
- Use State of Power rewards to recover some Expert-development resources.
- Finish Well Prepared only when the additional Sigils are valuable.
- Finish Radiant Honor only when you can afford the Shop items.
- Develop Battle Concerto gradually if you fight regularly.
- Leave Crushing Force low unless you lead rallies.
- Keep broader growth and Alliance reward Experts progressing.
Valeria becomes more attractive after the account already has a stable source of daily resources and Expert materials.
Valeria vs Baldur
Valeria and Baldur both improve major recurring events, but they serve different player types.
| Comparison | Valeria | Baldur |
|---|---|---|
| Main focus | State of Power | Alliance events and recurring rewards |
| Combat value | Very high during Battle Phase | Mostly permanent Affinity statistics |
| Reward frequency | Tied primarily to State of Power cycles | Spread across several Alliance events and shops |
| Best for F2P | Reward skills and limited combat investment | Broader repeatable resource progression |
| Best for spenders | Level 20 combat skills and maximum Talent | Maximized event rewards and shop efficiency |
Most free-to-play accounts receive broader value from the recently updated Whiteout Survival Baldur guide. Valeria becomes the stronger choice when State of Power combat is one of the account’s main priorities.
Developing Valeria requires Tundra Trek, Frontier Trek, Affinity gifts, Expert Sigils, Books of Knowledge, Learning EXP, and consistent State of Power participation. Players comparing that progression with an established city may review a wos account for sale, while checking its Dawn Academy, Valeria Affinity, skill levels, troop statistics, state age, transfer eligibility, and included resources.
Common Valeria Mistakes
Upgrading Valeria Without Playing State of Power
Most of Valeria’s major skills activate only during State of Power. Her priority drops sharply when the event is not part of your regular gameplay.
Rushing Level 20 Skills
Battle Concerto and Crushing Force cost 300,000 Books when maxed together. Use Levels 5, 10, and 15 as review points.
Ignoring Reward Skills
Well Prepared and Radiant Honor improve scoring, Books, Sigils, Sunfire Tokens, and Shop options. These can provide a better early return than combat statistics.
Building Crushing Force as a Rally Member
Additional rally capacity is primarily a rally-leader benefit. Regular members usually receive more value from Battle Concerto.
Unlocking Shop Items You Cannot Purchase
Radiant Honor adds useful Books and Sigils, but those items still require State of Power currency.
Raising Affinity Only for Statistics
Valeria’s Lethality and Health bonuses are strong, but Relationship investment should also support a meaningful skill or Talent milestone.
Using Outdated Talent Information
The current maximum Conqueror’s Spirit effect is 30% Troops Attack and 30% Troops Defense during the State of Power Battle Phase.
Treating Valeria as a General Growth Expert
Valeria does not provide the same daily construction, gathering, Intel, or broad Alliance reward value as general progression Experts.
