Heroes

Heroes are all the playable characters in LoA II, and consist of unlockable heroes and yourself. There are 4 types of rarities for heroes: Rare, Epic, Legendary, and Mythic, from the least to most rare going left to right.

## Shards

Shards are pieces of a hero that when are at a certain numerical value, allows the player to create a hero. The number of shards for each rarity of heroes increases with the rarity: 40 for epic, 80 for legendary, and 100 for mythic. Note that all pieces have to be of the same hero in order to craft that hero. This method is generally much harder, as the chances of getting many shards of a legendary mythic hero are extremely low, unless you happen to obtain a luxury mythic hero shard pack.

You should notice that this is very similar to the crafting of equipment.

## Hero Summoner

Hero Summoner is the easiest way to obtain heroes. Using this mechanic, you do not need any of the hero shards to summon a hero, which makes it much simpler to obtain rarer heroes.

There are two types of summons, Pray and Ritual. Ritual is the only type of summon that can grant you a legendary hero, while Pray summons only grant rare and epic ones.

Ritual summons are more complicated in several ways. First, for every ten ritual summons you perform, you automatically obtain a random legendary hero. Second, doing Ritual summons grants mana, and when you gain 1000 of it, you are allowed to unlock a legendary hero of your own choice.

However, what both types of summons share in common is that they both have summon cards, which give a free pass and don't cost you diamonds for the regular summons.

## Rarities

**DON'T USE ANY HERO THAT'S BELOW LEGENDARY (unless you just started the game, then go ahead). BUT AFTER YOU'VE PLAYED A WHILE, SWITCH TO LEGENDARY HEROES, AND THEN MYTHIC, AND THEN ARTIFACT, AND IF POSSIBLE, THE HEROES WITH THE FANCY FRAMES. Also you should focus on 1 hero only at the start, because imagine 2 players who both have 1billion br. Player 1 is a one hero focused team, while player 2 is a equally material divided team. There is a 100% chance that if you are player 1, to be player 2. Because imagine a hero of near 900 million br (because other 4 heroes will have 25 million br each). While player 2 had 5 heroes that are each have 200 million br. It's a no brainer that the 900 million br hero will demolish the 200 million br heroes one by one. This setup is also quite useful because you could fight people who are above you're level by 3 times (sometimes). This is only possible if you aren't in the LATE STAGE of the game, or if the player you are fighting doesn't have a focused hero setup.**

### Rare

These heroes are generally the weakest, and don't have many special skills and are relatively cheap to level up and augment. They are the only class that cannot be created from shards. Their nameplates are in blue, as many other games classify rare.

### Epic

These heroes have more skills, and can be created from shards. These heroes have purple nameplates.

### Legendary

These heroes have many more skills, and are generally much more powerful when upgraded to a certain degree. These heroes have golden nameplates.

### Mythic

These are the better legendary heroes, with the fewest number in game. They are extremely powerful, with 5 skills at most, and are not available through hero summoning. These heroes have red nameplates.

## Artifact Heroes

These heroes are the most power full in the game. They're starting stats are equal to the evolution of Mythic heroes.

You can get them by logging in daily for 3 months straight. And augmenting is done by using primal crystals instead of getting another full hero out of shards. You need a total of 10 shards of the hero for form them. These heroes can be identified by their yellow names.

## Valorium Heroes

To get Valorium heroes, the one with the fancy colorful frames around them, you would have to participate in x-server tycoon (I think, not a whale so I don't know exactly). Also don't even think of getting them unless you're a whale. Although it might cost quite a lot, it's worth it in the end though, as these types of heroes are 1 level above artifact heroes, and currently the strongest in the game.

### Main Hero

This is the only hero who can change rarities, going from rare at first all the way to mythic.
