Heroes command hordes of creatures. They can attack sentinels or other player. The can bring reinforcements to your palaces or transport resources from one palace to another.

The number of heroes that are available to you, depends on the level of your hero statue.

The button Heroes in the menubar leads to the configuration screen of your heroes.

Create a hero

After you have conjured your hero statue on level one, you are ready to create your first hero. In the hero menu, click on the button labelled with "Create a new hero". On each fifth level of the statue, you can create one additional hero. For this purpose, only the hero statue with the highest level counts. You get the first hero free of charge, but additional heroes will cost an increasing amount of mana to create.

Characteristics

Types of heroes

Heroes can lead creatures. Without the leadership of a hero, creatures can not leave the palace.

For the transport of resources or dragon eggs, one should use a pegasus. A pegasus can not attack, but it has the great advance that it can not be attacked, unless it stands on a palace. A pegasus is also invulnerable to crystalline catapult attacks. Each pegasus cost an increasing amount of mana, but not higher level of the hero statue is needed to create them.

Speed

On the wings of magic, heroes rush through the world with a speed of 1 tpa. This especially relevant for spy attacks, hence the speed of the complete horde is determined by the speed of the slowest unit.

Experince

Heroes gain experince in fights. When the gathered experience points reach a certain limit, the heroes gains an additional level. The number of experience points necessary for the next level can be seen on the experience bar.

Each time a hero rises one level, he also gains one skillpoint. Under the tab status, you can assign the skillpoints to the attributes of your hero. This cost one rune for each skillpoint that is distributed on the attributes.

Attributes

Attributes of a hero

Attack

Each point of „Attack“ increases the attack strength of all creatures led by the hero. The percental increase depends on the attack strength of the creature. The higher its strength, the higher is the percental enhancement. For a creature with an attack strength of 1, the enhancement is 2% for each point of attack of the hero.

Defence

The same applies for defence. Defence does not mean an armor value, but an attack value in case the unit defends. The enhancement here is 2.5 %.

Life force

Each point on life increases the hit points of all creatures, that are led by the hero. Again, the percental increase depends on the life value of the creature. For a creature with life 1, the enhancement is 1.1 %.

Rename heroes

The name of a hero is displayed at the top of the hero screen. On a click, the name changes into an input field and a new name can be entered.
