A gilded hero is a great deal more powerful, since his or her stats increase dramatically with each gild.
The way this works is that you earn a new gilded hero (randomly selected) every 10 stages, but only the first time you clear the stage in question.
Once you pass a certain stage, you can also gild them. They'll hack away at foes without you needing to even click, which is important. These you can pay to work on your behalf with the wealth you amass by defeating monsters. The sooner you activate them, the sooner you'll be able to perform the feats that let you stretch toward some of the more difficult goals.Īs you advance through the realms, you will find heroes.
Take a look at them and see if there are any you might be able to access sooner rather than later. They'll unlock automatically over time, but some of them you can hasten along. In-game achievements often offer rewards in the form of 5% increases to the damage your heroes inflict, which over time can add up to a big difference. Don't ignore the in-game achievements, which differ from the available Steam achievements.
