To obtain a positive trait, a Player has to win a series of consecutive battles in the primary campaign or send a particular Hero to the Tavern to get a trait at the Card table. Players can obtain a random trait, either positive or negative, though the chances to get the negative ones are lower. Heroes can get rid of a negative trait In the Bedchamber. When Heroes are in the Tavern, they are not available for combat. It is always possible for them to get back into battle when Players remove Heroes from the Tavern without acquiring a trait; or speed up the process in exchange for gems.
Use gems to reset a Hero in exchange for resources. Proceed to the Temple to reset a Hero level. Find a 'Reset' option, select a Hero, and tap 'Reset.' After resetting a Hero, their gear and accumulated resources and experience will be returned. The level of Hero Ascension is not subject to change after resetting.
To ascend a Hero, players should sacrifice a certain number of other Heroes. Ascension requirements can be different and depend on the current level of Ascension. Heroes chosen for the sacrifice will be scattered and lost forever. All their gear, experience, and resources will be returned to the player. Additionally, to ascend Heroes, you can use Universal Souls to substitute for the third Hero with a particular level of ascension. Note that Fallen Heroes cannot be ascended.
To raise the Ascension level of a Hero, you need to collect three identical Heroes. Enter the Temple and find a 'Merge' option. Select the identical Heroes and tap the "Merge' button to reach the next level of Ascension.
Here's an essential key to success: you need to level up your Heroes, raise their Ascension level and develop an effective strategy for using spells. Moreover, it's crucial to upgrade the spells and equipment regularly. It can also be helpful to reconsider the set of Heroes you tend to use in accordance with your combat style and objectives.
If a Hero is locked and cannot be selected as a team member, it is recommended to check other game activities, for example, the Tavern. Please note that when Heroes are currently engaged in the Tavern, Bedchamber, or Card table, they are not available for combat.
When summoning a new Hero at the Recruitment Point, players can obtain Fallen Heroes instead of regular ones. You can purify them at the sacred Altar in the Temple. After the purification, players receive Seals of the Fallen. Fallen Heroes are not featured in the Hero Collection and cannot be ascended. If not purified, they can be used as team members and upgraded as they have their special battle abilities and can benefit the cause.
Seals of the Fallen appear when summoning a Fallen Hero and can be used at the Mercenary Shop. Once you purify a Fallen Hero at the Altar, they disappear while you immediately receive the Seals. At the moment, players can buy Hero Scrolls, Soul Vessels, and Hero Shards of all classes at the Mercenary Shop in exchange for Fallen Seals.
The collection features all Heroes divided into classes, except Fallen Heroes, who are not available there. When you get a Hero that is not in your collection yet, you receive rewards and exp. Exp and rewards are also given after ascending a Hero to a new grade. Exp is required to upgrade class levels that improve the bonus characteristics of Heroes. Bonuses are applied to all Heroes of the corresponding class. Obtain new Heroes and ascend them to increase the overall power of your squad.
Players can use Summoning Scrolls at the Recruitment Point. There is a 100% chance that you will summon a Hero. Fallen Heroes and Soul Vessels do not appear when players use Summoning Scrolls.
Players can obtain new Heroes while completing the challenges of the main campaign, collecting the 28-day bonus (7th and 28th day), and summoning them at the Recruitment Point.

Tap on the icon of the Hero you intend to remove from the squad while selecting the members before the battle. Once you do this, you will see all Heroes available for battle.

Moreover, some Heroes cannot be selected if they are currently in the Tavern or engaged in other game activities.

Various items such as Hiking Tools, Holy Water, Medicinal Herbs, a Pick Set, Torches, etc., are occasionally required while exploring the terrain, taking part in the battle events, and completing the tasks in the Labyrinth of Madness.

After tiresome battles, Heroes can find a bit of rest in the Bedchamber and get rid of a negative trait. When Heroes are in the Bedchamber, they are not available for battle. It is possible to speed up the process of removal in exchange for gems.
The innkeeper will tell stories about the greatest deeds of a Hero, and rumors about his glory will spread around the area. A positive trait will be extended. When Heroes are at the innkeeper's, they can't participate in the battle. To speed up this process, you can use gems.
Forge allows you to improve the gear of different grades. To improve it, you need to melt down some other gear and gold.
Different grades of gear have a different number of enhancement stars.
The range of items available on the market is updated as far as you advance in the main campaign. The further you go, the better the market offers.
The range of available items is updated every 24 hours or every 7 days (the reset time can vary in different shops). You can always refresh the list in exchange for gems by tapping the button 'Update.'
There are two ways of obtaining a new Hero:
You can use Heroes in any activities offered in the adventures, but note that the same Hero can not be engaged in more than one activity at a time. You can send this Hero to a new battle only after the previous activity has been completed.
You need Heroes of a particular level and grade to take part in the Mines of Abyss activities. The challenges are updated every day and gradually get more advanced as they are completed. With each level of activity, the requirements for the Heroes increase, as well as the reward.
In the Towers of Darkness, you can encounter cursed heroes and monstrous bosses. The tower is not affected by magic; that is why you cannot use spells here.
Players only receive rewards if Heroes were defeated in the battle or if the activity timer has expired. If you deliberately quit the battle, you will not receive the rewards.
Upon defeating a dragon, players are entitled to receive a chest containing the rewards, after which the dragon becomes more powerful and increases its level. There are three types of chests with different sets of rewards and different probabilities of obtaining them. The higher the level of the dragon, the better the reward.
There's a special system of torches in the Labyrinth of Madness. The level of light affects the enemies and their combat skills, your rewards, and the scouting chance. The lower the level of light, the higher the ATK and DEF of the enemies, but the better the reward. The scouting chance affects the opportunities to reveal which activity in a room will be the first to participate. It decreases together with the level of light. A torch goes out as long as Heroes take part in a battle and labyrinth battle events; while entering a new room or a new tier. It's possible to increase the level of light by tapping on the torch. Players can purchase torches at the market and obtain them in the Labyrinth battle events.
The Labyrinth of Madness gets reset every 48 hours, offering rooms with various enemies, bosses, and new activities. Make sure you've got enough supplies, and select your Heroes wisely. It's not possible to make changes in your squad until the Labyrinth has been reset. Choose your route carefully while selecting a room to enter, as you cannot go back and head to another room. Each Labyrinth has three tiers. Having completed the tier, Heroes have an opportunity to set up a camp to have some rest. A camp serves as a checkpoint - next time you enter the Labyrinth, you will have to start at the last camp you have reached. Blessings obtained in the previous tiers are retained. Players can restore some HP, resurrect Heroes fallen in a battle against evil, and acquire and upgrade blessings. The level of difficulty of each tier rises gradually. In the heart of the Labyrinth, enemies become more powerful, while traps and obstacles are much more dangerous. Be aware that Heroes in your squad might frequently die, after which you will have to start the tier all over again.
