Growing Your Heroes

Looking around in the Arena or World Boss ranking, you will find that all of the Heroes used are at level 60, fully enhanced, and for certain heroes, fully awakened. Doing the Adventure will also be much easier. Usually, the process of growing your heroes begins with **leveling up**, then they will need to **evolve** from 4★ to 5★, then 5★ to 6★. After that, you can begin to **enhance** your heroes while **limit-breaking** them, with the goal of reaching level 60 with full enhancement (6★ enhancement). Then, for Awakened Heroes, you can begin the awakening process to unlock the **Awakening Passive**. All of these processes will require Gold.

## Leveling Up Your Heroes

In order to raise the stats of your heroes, you will first need to level them up. Experience, or XP, can be acquired after clearing a stage in Story or Special Dungeon, though the XP acquired this way will be low compared to using XPmons. You can find **XPmons** quite easily since they drop everywhere, though there is a dungeon that drops XPmons exclusively. Located in the **Special Dungeon**, the XP Dungeon drops mostly XPmons specific to the element displayed on the dungeon, and some Rainbowmons. Leveling up heroes with XPmons of the same element will grant them more XP, and even more XP with Rainbowmons. The XP Dungeon rotates daily, so make sure to check back every day!
To level up your hero, go to the **Heroes** icon on the Basic Menu, and choose the **Level Up** option.

You should fully level up your heroes in their 4★ and 5★ forms to receive the **Max Level** reward, which when completed is indicated by the blue and yellow star medal with red ribbon on the left of the hero portrait.

## Evolving Your Heroes

When you have fully leveled up your 4★ hero, whom should be at level 40, you must evolve them to continue the leveling process. In order to evolve, you need Evolvemon, which drop mostly in the Evo Dungeon located in the **Special Dungeon**. You can also use other heroes of the same number of stars, just make sure that they are unlocked (if you want to use SSR heroes). Your hero do not need to be at Max Level in order to evolve.
To evolve your hero, go to the **Heroes** icon on the Basic Menu, and choose the **Evolve** option this time.

You will need a total of 4 Evolvemons or heroes to evolve from 4★ to 5★, and a total of 5 Evolvemons or heroes to evolve from 5★ to 6★.

If the **Evolvemons** are not on top once you are in the **Evolve** interface, you can sort the heroes by their **Grade**, and choose **N** using the menu at the bottom.

## Limit Breaking Your Heroes

When your hero has reached level 50, it is now time limit break and enhance them, with the goal of reaching level 60 and 6★ purple. You can do these two processes at the same time. To limit-break your hero, you will need other 6★ heroes or 6★ Evolvemon as materials. When you have enough 6★ heroes or Evolvemons prepped, go to the **Limit Break** option in the **Heroes** basic menu, and choose the material you would like to use. If the material is a 6★ SSR, make sure it is unlocked.

For certain limit-breaking tiers, there are different requirements.

 54
 56
 58
 60

After each limit breaking, heroes' Talents will be available. **Talents** will be different for each hero type.

## Enhancing Your Heroes

Heroes can be enhanced with Advent Heroes. The Advent Heroes will need to be at 6★ via **evolving**. To enhance your hero, navigate via the **Heroes** basic menu and choose the **Enhance** option.

Besides the Advent Heroes, you will also need Insignia of the same element as the enhancing hero. **Insignias** can be most efficiently obtained by completing the Guild Dungeon. You can exchange the unneeded Insignia for other Insignia at the Laboratory, located in **Town**.

Each hero grade (R, SR, or SSR) will have a different requirement. The number of required **Advent Heroes** for each enhancing tier will be the same between the different hero grade, however. Below is the requirement for SSR hero enhancing:

 2
 3
 4
 5
 6

## Awakening Your Heroes

For many heroes, achieving level 60 and full enhancement is the end of their growth (besides equipping Runes, changing Talents, etc.) However, for certain heroes who received **Awakening**, they will need to be **Awakened** and unlock their **Awakening Passive** to achieve their full potential. The Awakening process requires **Rainbow Essence**, Essence of the same element as the Awakened hero, Gold (a lot of it, 3 Million to be exact), and **Awakening Essence**.

The primary ways to acquire Awakening Essence are:

1) Reward in the Multi Dungeon, specifically the two **Searching for Treasure** dungeons. Amount varies from 1 to 10 Awakening Essences per attempt.

2) Tier 2 and Tier 4 Reward in the Summoning Banner (70 total Awakening Essences).

3) Buying with Honor via Arena Shop (20 Awakening Essences for 300 Honors).

Awakening Essences also drop with a certain probability in 4★ and 5★ Advent Dungeons, or as rewards in some events, etc.

To awaken your hero, navigate via the **Heroes** basic menu and choose the **Awaken Heroes** option this time.

Unlock each **Awakening Tier** will enhance your hero's stat, and the requirements for each tier will be higher than before. In total, you will need around 300 Awakening Essence, in addition to other materials listed above, to fully awaken your hero. It is recommended that you should only awaken **1 hero at a time**.
If you are a newer player, you should awaken Morrigan first and foremost to carry you through various contents, then Electra/Karen/Mina/Mary, and etc.

Have fun Growing Your Heroes!
