Heroes/Handy Hero Tables

Regular Heroes
Click on the box in the heading field to change sort order.

Attack and defense fields represent the hero's stats at level 1. Every time that hero levels up, both values are increased in one point; so if you have an hero at level 4, attack and defense will be three points greater than the initial values shown.

The tab shows stats of every hero without their equipments.

NOTE
'''New generals added max levels updated for most generals. Favor Point Generals still need max levels updated. 12/21/2014'''

Best Compared Generals
Calculations are based on a general at level 4 with all equipment bonuses and special abilities applied

''15th May 2012 : from a player : i don't understand how it is calculated. For example, Corvintheus is 28 att and 28 def and add 1 defense for 3 health. So with 150 health, it is 50 more in defense. So in attack it is 82.6 and in defense it is 97.6 !''

Aeris' Special Ability

 * Her special ability (initially) decreases the bank fee by 10%. The banking fee is 10%. Her bonus does NOT remove the banking fee (until she is a level 4 general).
 * If you try to stash away 1000 gold, normally, the bank would take 100 gold as the fee, and you deposit 900 gold
 * With her initial ability, if you stash 1000 gold, the bank will take only 91 gold, and you deposit 909 gold.
 * The wording is a bit odd. It decreases the bank fee by 10%. The bank fee is 10%, so 10% of this is decreased. At level 4, she decreases the bank fee by 100% - meaning it takes off 100% of the 10% fee - making it free.

Xira and Halcyon Special Abilities (tricky case)

 * Both special ability are to transfer up to 25% stats between attack and defense (at level 4).
 * Xira would transfer 25% of player's defense stat to attack, and Halcyon is the opposite.
 * When discussing the attack strength, it is very much possible that Xira would surpass all generals, due the fact that the player stats are going to be the key factor. i.e. if the player have an even 100att/100def stats, then while Xira is equipped, the Attack stats of the player will be 125att/75. Thus applying the attack and defend formulas shall yield a significant increase or decrease in player's attack and defense powers. Therefore, it is clear that both of those 2 Generals are tricky use, and mastering them requires good sense of awareness of self-stats.
 * Halcyon on the other hand, is considered the best General to park the account with, especially for those who have significant high attack power on the expense of defense stats!

Heroes Level Up

 * The hero gets XP based on how much Energy/Stamina you spent.
 * There is a fixed ratio for the XP gained: $$\frac{1 \times Stamina}{1 \times Energy} = \frac{7}{6}$$
 * New information indicates that this may no longer be the case. See the Talk:Heroes page for more details.

4/12/09 - Several Generals leveling bugged

 * There have been reports of some generals losing stats/bonuses upon leveling.

Best generals for money

 * To gain extra income, use Scarlett, an FP general, for +6% gold when level 4 or Mercedes, a non-FP general, for +5% gold when level 4 ($70k, $140 upkeep, or Cid, a non-FP general, for +4% gold when level 4 ($25k, no upkeep).
 * Recruit Aeris to save on bank fees while protecting your gold: she's not expensive (only $20,000), easy to train, and will remove Bank Fee once she is level 4, so you will quickly be "refunded" using her.
 * Buy your soldiers with Garlan, a non-FP general ($38k, $30 upkeep). He is the easiest general for decreasing soldier cost (-6% at level 4). If you're starting, Penelope, a non-FP general ($5k, no upkeep) will help you too (-4% at level 4). Another general that you can get with favor points in treasure chest is Lucius with an 8% decrease in cost at level 4. If you participate in Master and Apprentice or obtain from Reinforcements, Darius will decrease soldier and equipment cost by 10% at level 4 - the best so far.
