Getting Heroes

There are a number of ways to gain heroes and these are listed below

Joining the Battle

Heroes will lead stacks according to their power, so the highest level hero in your army will lead your most powerful stack and so on; however, heroes will lead units that are the same race and color (for instance, even if you only have a Berserker, it will lead Dwarven Deathseekers even if Red Dragons are your top stack). Heroes will die in battle when the stack that they command is completely destroyed and the damage dealt is sufficient to completely take off the hitpoint of the hero. e.g. level 17 Illusionist leads Phoenix. A stack of Red Dragon deals a final blow of 226000 damage to the remaining 3 Phoenix(with 70000 hp). The stack will be wiped off but the hero survives as a level 17 Illusionist has a hp of 18000 while 3 Phoenix have a total of 210000 hp. So the total amount of damage needed to clear the stack and kill that hero should be 228000. Therefore, with only 226000, the hero survives.

Leading a Stack

  • On DEFENSE (Regular and Siege), heroes will lead any stack (even 1 militia or 1 sheep).
  • On OFFENSE (Regular and Siege),
    • If you send a very small stack (by % of your total power), the hero will not lead it.
    • If you send a big stack in company with small stacks, heroes can lead all stacks.
      • Note that very small stacks may not be targeted if they are under a certain % of your NP.


  • When color AND race of a stack match that of the hero, a hero will prefer to lead that stack.
  • In any other case (no match, only color matches, only race matches), the hero prefers to lead the highest powerranked stack
    • If you have two heroes of the same Race and Color, the highest level hero chooses stack preference first.
    • If you have several heroes, the most experienced (highest level) hero is matched first.
  • If there are more battle heroes than stacks,
    • the not-preferred stack hero stays home (if there is a preferred hero-stack match in the army send to battle),
    • the lowest level hero stays home.
      • long ago multiple heroes could jointly lead one and the same stack - that was abandoned in TR.

When In the Battle

Efficiency Bonus

If a Hero commands a stack of the same colour and race as the hero this stack receives a bonus to efficiency equal to the heros level in percent. This goes for the start of the battle. Soon as the unit hits and or is hit, the Fatigue effect comes in to play.

  • Example: Level 16 Fire Elementalist commands stack of Efreeti.
    • Efreeti start with 100% efficiency + 16% bonus = 116% efficiency (100% default)
    • After their primary attack (init 4) they lose 15% as normal = 101% efficiency (85% default)
    • After one hit they again lose 15% = 86% efficiency (70% default)

Attack of the hero

  • Right after the primary attack of the stack, to the same stack.

Heroes' spells and resistance

  • If one of your heroes casts a spell or uses an ability, that can be resisted, just as any other spell.
  • Hero colour determines the colour of the spell/skill.

How Heroes are Lost in Combat:

  • Stack wiping the hero led stack will usually kill a hero
    • but... for the hero to die, there needs to be enough damage left over after the stack is killed, to kill the hero also.
    • In a close call, it thus is possible to have a hero-lead stack completely die, while the hero manages to survive.


Hero Experience

With every turn you spend, your hero gains experience points. When you collected enough experience, your hero raises a level. The latter may switch on new abilities and increase the effect of already acquired abilities.

Experience gain

Battle Heroes:

  • Slow servers (Arch 1/12 min): 12 experience per turn + 24 experience for leading a stack in a battle (win or not)
arch changed from 1/15 to 1/12 min, experience needs confirmation
  • Normal servers (Guild, Solo 1/7min): 5 experience per turn + 10 experience for leading a stack in a battle (win or not)
  • Fast servers (Beta 1/5 min): 4 experience per turn + 8 experience for leading a stack in a battle (win or not)

Non-Battle Heroes:

  • Slow servers (Arch 1/12 min): 18 experience per turn
arch changed from 1/15 to 1/12 min, experience needs confirmation
  • Normal servers (Guild, Solo 1/7min): 8.4 experience per turn
  • Fast servers (Beta 1/5 min): 6 experience per turn

Leveling

  • For a hero to go up a level, it requires 1000*current level in experience.


Section 7 - Heroes and Heroins of Alzorath's FAQ v0.2 shows a table format of the hero levels from zero up to 40; however, the lowest level heroes available start from level 8 as most heroes have thier first abilities when they reach level 9.

Hero Abilities

The hero and the level of the hero when the ability of gained is listed in the parentheses next to the ability.

--Below, when an ability is denoted as (Does Something/LVL), it does NOT mean the hero level, but the level of the skill. EXAMPLE: A level 10 Alchemist has 2 skill points in Alchemy. The easy way to derive the skill level is to take the level of the hero then subtract the level that you get the skill, then add one. Back to the Alchemist, Level 10 - Level 9 (Skill onset level) = 1. 1 + 1 = 2. Thus level 2 of Alchemy. Hero abilities can also be turned off by accessing the audience link from the main menu page of the game.
