You can make a hero with any troop type.
When a hero is trained he has 5 skill points that can be used to increase his 5 abilities. Ability levels can be increased up to level 100.
So what do these abilities do? And how do I use them?
As mentioned above, when your hero is trained he is automatically given 5 skill points and he has 5 abilities. Click on your mansion and you will see this screen
Your hero is currently at level 0, but has 5 points. By clicking on the (+) sign you can raise your hero’s ability in each of 5 ways.
• Offence:
Points put into this ability increase the attack value of the hero.
• Defence:
Points put into this ability increase the defence value of the hero. (The ratio of defence against infantry/Calvary stays the same.)
• Off-Bonus:
Points put into this ability increase the attack value of the whole army by 0.2% per level (maximum of 20%). This bonus only applies if the hero is attacking with the army.
• Def-Bonus:
Points put into this ability increase the defence value of the whole army by 0.2% per level (maximum of 20%) This bonus only applies if the hero is defending with the army. Other defending troops not under your control will remain unaffected by this bonus.
• Regeneration:
Points put into this ability increase the regeneration rate of the hero.
The hero above is a Druidrider, which is a defensive troop. So I want to increase his defence capabilities. I also want to increase the defence of all the other troops in my village, so I have decided to raise the level of the hero in Defence & def-bonus. So I have clicked twice on the (+) after Defence and 3 times on the (+) after Def-Bonus.
My screen now looks like this
Every troop in my village now has a 0.6% increase in their defensive capabilities.
Whilst my hero is at level 0, I am able to redistribute the ability points at will by clicking on Redistribute points, so if I am sending the Hero out on an attack, I might want to set up Attack & Off-bonus.
Each time your hero is in a battle, where a opposing troop dies, your hero gains experience, so his experience level will rise. Once the experience reaches 100% the hero will gain a level and gain 5 more points for you to distribute. One warning here, once your hero reaches level 1 you can no longer redistribute the points.
Each time you hero is involved in a battle he (or she) will lose health, so you should distribute some of the points in regeneration. The higher the percentage here, the quicker your hero will get better.
