Hero

Heroes are unlocked after players Complete Skirmish 2: Ridge Attack. This will unlock the Hero Stages. After completing the tutorial in Normal Stage 1-1 Maiden Battle, by defeating Bellena, the Hero Collection button will become visible on the bottom of the screen.

All players will begin the game with two heroes, Oath Keeper and Death Archer. In addition, new players can choose Death Knight, Incinerator or Scarlet Bolt to receive Hero Medals for in the Daily Login.

Players' leading Heroes can be captured and executed in Prison. After execution, a Hero can be resurrected using a Revival Fruit for 60,000 Guild Coins or 1000 Gems.

There are three tabs in a players Hero Collection, which can be viewed on the right side.

Trophies, Rank, Grade and Medals

Promote a hero to increase their attributes and Command. Promoted heroes may also learn new skills. To promote a hero, players must gather all the Trophies required. Clear Normal and Elite Hero Stages to collect more trophies.

The Level and Rank of the hero is visible on the top left side of the avatar.

Rank 1	Rank 2	Rank 3	Rank 4	Rank 5	Rank 6	Rank 7	Rank 8

To upgrade a hero, players must collect enough Medals. The higher the grade of the hero, the higher their stats become. Collect medals by completing the Elite Hero Stages of that particular hero. The drop rate for medals is approximately 3.4 per 10 battles. Tap this button to view the Hero Stages where Medals for a specific hero can be acquired.

When players have reached VIP Level 6, they will unlock the ability to Sweep the Hero Stages, which automatically completes the battle. Players can only use this ability on a stage, once they have already completed it with 3 Crowns. Sweeps can be carried out individually or up to 10 times with one tap.

Heroes which are ready to be promoted or upgraded can be seen with an exclamation mark on their profile. Tap the rank to begin promoting, or the shield with medals to begin upgrading. The hero will be promoted or upgraded when the countdown timer reaches zero. When a hero is promoted or upgraded, the player will gain a small amount of Might. The grade of a hero is signified by the color of the frame surrounding their icon.

To Grade	Color	Medals to upgrade
Common		10 (to hire)
Uncommon		20
Rare		50
Epic		100
Legendary		150

Battle and Hero Skills, Leadership Type and Command

Each hero has four Battle Skills. The first skill only activates if the hero is leading troops into battle. The other three are divided into two types:

1. Passive
   skills are permanently in effect (but activated the moment the required hero rank is unlocked}.
2. Active (or 'When Deployed')
   skills will only be applied when the hero is deployed in battle.

Passive skills can also be economic (boost construction, building, training) and battle. Passive battle skills increase the stats of the player's army/troops and/or his allies, without requiring a hero with such a skill to be sent into battle.

When heroes are sent to battle, they can Command troops on the players behalf, effectively increasing the total number of troops that can be sent to battle. Heroes can only Command one specific troop type (infantry, ranged, cavalry, siege engine).

Each hero also has four Hero Skills. The first skill is the hero's Ultimate. These are extremely powerful and can only be activated when the hero has enough MP. Tap hero icon to unleash the ultimate attack to a nearby target; tap and hold to aim the attack.
