Brawler is a group of heroes that lead your infantry troops. In explorer, their position is at the forefront allowing them to move to multiple places for attacking purposes. However, their range of attack is small. Brawler has the greatest Health stat among the three hero types. Infected will generally attack the brawler first.

Marksman

Marksman is a group of heroes that lead your hunter troops. In explorer, their position is on the left. Their range of attack is greater compared to the brawler. Marksman has the lowest Health stat but they have the highest Attack stat. Typically, Infected will finish off the marksman after the brawler is defeated.

Scout

## Locating Heroes

In order to use a hero, you must first locate him/her. To locate a hero, you need to collect enough  Hero Fragments of the specific Hero. Each Hero needs a different amount of Hero Fragments to be located. Generally, they require 10-40 fragments in order to locate the hero.

To tell how many fragments are required, find the hero in the “Not located” list on the hero page.

On the bottom right of each hero in this section, you can see how many hero fragments are required to locate the hero and how many you already have.
Once you have obtained enough fragments, click the “locate” button.

## Hero Progression

Hero Progression
To make a strong hero, you will need to increase their rank and level. Each rank allows you to level up the hero until a certain point. The max Hero level and Hero Rank you can achieve is determined by the level of your Hero Precinct.

Hero Rank
Upgrading your hero rank requires Hero Fragments and Hero Badges.

Hero Level
Upgrading your hero level requires Hero Skill Books.

After locating a hero, the number of Hero Fragments and Hero Badges needed to rank up is the same for all Heroes. Please check Hero Ranks for upgrade information.
