How to get Heroes?
All players will begin the game with two heroes: Oath Keeper and Dealth Archer. Players can then unlock additional Heroes by obtaining Hero Medals specific to each Hero. Players will need 10 Hero Medals to hire a hero. These can be obtained through in-game activities, players do not need to “buy” them with real money.
When it comes to the Paid Heroes, logically, they are better. Even the best Free Hero doesn’t come close to the power of the Paid Heroes. These provide a huge boost when sent into battle. They are in the mall and can be hired by purchasing various bundles.
