Captains are unique warriors who lead marches to monsters, crypts, and resource-harvesting points on the world map. Captains’ Leadership, Authority, Dominance, and Might are lower than your hero's. They also have three equipment slots instead of six.

You need captains to progress in the game and advance your development.
 
There are more ways to level up captains than heroes:
  • You can attack a monster squad (except for Rare and Heroic ones).
  • You can attack other players.
  • You can explore crypts - the higher the crypt level, the more experience you gain.
  • You can use special experience chests purchased in limited offers.
The most efficient ways are attacking monster squads or other players.

There are 26 unique captains in the game.

Tip.
 
The captain's cap level is 500. Note, though, that Doria's, Carter's, and Dustan's bonuses will stop growing after level 300.
