Overview

Summoners War Neal Light Fairy: Neal, the Light Fairy in Summoners War, is a 3★ support monster obtainable through Light & Darkness scrolls, the Secret Dungeon, or other in-game sources like the Temple of Wishes. Though often overlooked due to her rarity and humble origins, Neal becomes a valuable utility monster, especially after her Second Awakening (2A), which significantly boosts her usability.

Neal Stats

Neal, the Light Fairy in Summoners War, sees a steady increase in her base stats through awakening and Second Awakening. At Level 40 unawakened, her stats start at 9,225 HP, 615 ATK, 417 DEF, and 100 Speed, with standard base rates of 15% Crit Rate, 50% Crit Damage, 15% Resistance, and 0% Accuracy. Upon awakening, her HP increases to 10,545, ATK to 681, DEF to 433, and Speed to 101. These boosts are modest but helpful in her role as a support unit.

Her Second Awakening offers more meaningful improvements. At 2A, Neal reaches 11,040 HP, 714 ATK, and 582 DEF, maintaining her Speed at 101. This upgrade significantly enhances her survivability and utility, particularly because her healing skill after 2A scales with her Max HP. While her offensive stats remain modest, her improved durability and defense make her a much stronger asset in sustained fights, particularly in PvE content like Tower of Ascension.

Overall, Neal’s stat growth reflects her role as a defensive support unit. She isn’t meant to deal heavy damage, but rather to provide consistent healing, cleansing, and invincibility—all of which are more effective with her increased survivability post-2A.

How to Obtain Neal

Light and Darkness Scroll

Secret Dungeon

Temple of Wishes

Neal, the Light Fairy, can be obtained through several in‑game methods:

• Light & Darkness Scrolls: She has a chance to appear when summoning from these popular scrolls
• Light Fairy Secret Dungeon: After the Light Fairy family’s release, Neal became farmable in her specific Secret Dungeon (Hall of Light)
• Temple of Wishes: She is one of the monsters you may receive when spending energy in this event-exclusive feature
• Friend Invite Reward: Neal can also be earned by inviting 50 friends to the game and claiming the associated gift

Whether you’re summoning randomly, farming her specific dungeon, participating in Temple of Wishes, or earning rewards through friend invites, there are multiple avenues to acquire Neal—each suiting different stages and play styles in Summoners War

Awakening Essence

Essence of Light (Low)

Essence of Water (Mid)

Essence of Magic (Low)

Essence of Magic (Mid)

To awaken Neal, the Light Fairy, you need specific Light and Magic essences obtained from the Hall of Light (elemental dungeon) and the Hall of Magic in Cairos Dungeon:

Awakening Requirements (to 1★ awakened):

• 5 × Low Light Essence
• 10 × Mid Light Essence
• 10 × Mid Magic Essence
• 15 × Low Magic Essence

Once you collect these essences, you can perform the standard awakening to unlock her Holy Shield skill.

SKILL UPS

To skill up Neal, the Light Fairy, you’ll need specific materials and monsters to enhance her skills:

• Skill-up Monsters: Use Light Fairy monsters as fodder to increase Neal’s skill levels. The higher the skill level, the better her stun chance, healing, and cooldown reductions become.
• Devilmons: Alternatively, you can use Devilmons, which instantly grant one skill-up per Devilmon used, making the process faster but more resource-intensive.
• Skill-up Requirements per Level:
  • Each skill level upgrade requires 1 Light Fairy monster or 1 Devilmon.
  • To max all three skills, you’ll typically need about 15 Light Fairies or Devilmons combined, depending on how many skill levels you want to raise.
• Essence and Mana: Skill-ups themselves do not require essences, but to awaken Neal (which unlocks her 2nd skill and more), you’ll need Light and Magic essences from Cairos Dungeon.

Because Neal benefits significantly from skill-ups—especially reducing cooldowns and improving healing and stun chance—investing in skill-ups can greatly improve her utility.

Strategy

Neal’s strategy in Summoners War revolves around her role as a versatile support unit, combining cleansing, healing, crowd control, and survivability to keep your team alive in tough battles.

Core Strategy: Use Neal to remove harmful effects from your allies with her Purify skill while simultaneously healing them. After her Second Awakening, her healing scales with her max HP, so building her tanky maximizes her sustain. Her Holy Shield grants two turns of invincibility plus immunity, making her invaluable for blocking heavy damage or debuffs from powerful enemies—this is especially useful in PvE content like the Tower of Ascension and certain dungeons.

Crowd Control: Neal’s first skill, Light Hurricane, hits three times with a chance to stun enemies. After skill-ups and 2A, the stun chance becomes high enough to reliably disrupt enemy turns, buying your team extra breathing room.

Best Uses:

• Tower of Ascension Hard (ToAH 93): Neal is famous for her ability to bait and survive Leo and Ragdoll’s powerful combos by timing her invincibility correctly.
• Dungeon Runs: Her cleanse and healing help teams last longer against damage-over-time effects and debuffs.
• Early- to Mid-game Support: She’s a budget-friendly healer and cleanser before you get access to higher-tier units.

Rune Recommendations: Swift + Energy or Violent + Energy with focus on SPD and HP ensure Neal acts quickly and heals effectively. The key is to maximize her survivability and utility rather than damage.

Overall, Neal excels as a niche but reliable support who can turn the tide by protecting and sustaining your team, especially where precise invincibility timing and debuff removal are needed.

Strength and Weakness

Neal’s Strengths:

• Strong Support Utility: Cleanses harmful effects and heals allies, making her very helpful in keeping teams alive.
• Invincibility & Immunity: Her Holy Shield provides 2 turns of invincibility plus immunity after Second Awakening, which is excellent for surviving burst damage or enemy crowd control.
• High Stun Chance: Her Light Hurricane skill can stun enemies reliably after skill-ups and 2A, disrupting enemy turns.
• Tanky Build Potential: Post-2A healing scales with her Max HP, allowing her to be built tanky to maximize healing and survivability.
• Niche PvE Uses: Particularly effective in stages like Tower of Ascension Hard 93 (Leo/Ragdoll stage) where timing invincibility can bait and counter enemy strategies.

Neal’s Weaknesses:

• Low Damage Output: Her offensive stats and damage are low, so she contributes little to offense.
• Situational Use: While very useful in niche scenarios, she’s often outclassed by better healers and cleansers in late-game content.
• Skill-up Cost: Requires a significant number of Light Fairy fodder or Devilmons to maximize her skills, which can be resource-intensive.
• Moderate Base Speed: Her speed is decent but not outstanding, so she may require rune investment to act quickly in some comps.
• Limited in PvP: Less commonly used in Arena or Guild Wars where burst damage and control are prioritized.

Overall, Neal shines as a situational support specialist with strong niche utility, but she isn’t a universal pick for every team or content.

Synergy

Neal synergizes best with monsters that benefit from her strong cleansing, healing, and invincibility, as well as those who rely on prolonged survivability to deal damage or control the fight. Here are some ideal synergies to maximize her impact:

• Tanks and Bruisers: Monsters like Ragdoll or Leo in ToAH benefit from Neal’s invincibility and cleanse to survive enemy bursts, allowing them to safely use their powerful skills without being interrupted or disabled.
• Damage Dealers Who Need Protection: Monsters with long cooldowns or vulnerable setups, such as Baretta or Belladeon, gain from Neal’s cleansing and healing to stay alive longer and keep their crowd control or damage rolling.
• Buff/Support Monsters: Neal pairs well with units like Fran or Mav who provide buffs or control, as her cleanse and invincibility help maintain those buffs longer by removing harmful effects and preventing debuffs.
• Slow, High-Impact Monsters: Units that require careful timing or setup, such as Verad or Basalt, benefit from Neal’s ability to stall and protect the team during critical moments.

In short, Neal fits perfectly into teams that need strong sustain and protection to execute slower, more strategic gameplay—especially in PvE content like ToA Hard and dungeons where survivability and control are key.
