Your Hero is a great general who leads your marches and rules your City. Much like Captains, Heroes are crucial for advancing your development. Compared to Captains, Heroes have higher Leadership, Authority, and Dominance stats. They also have six equipment slots instead of three.
You can level up your Hero by:
- Attacking monster squads (including rare monsters and unique epic squads).
- Attacking other players.
- Using special experience chests, which can be purchased in limited-time offers.
The game features 15 Hero avatars.
