Once you get midway through the game, you might find it a bit difficult to progress if you don't have any 5 star heroes.

Because of this, we recommend that you reroll in the early stages of Fire Emblem Heroes. You can clear the early stages with any hero, but from around Chapter 6 you're more likely to lose if you don't have any 5 star heroes.

What is the Best Way to Reroll?

If You're Lucky Rerolling, You'll Have an Easier Road Ahead

We recommend that you aim for a hero with a strong magic skill. If you're able to get a lot of heroes with S or SS rankings, then you'll be able to progress through the game more smoothly.

Unlock the Training Tower

First, make your way through the early stages of the story. Once you clear Chapter 3, the Training Tower will be unlocked. Here, you will be able to level up your heroes and from there be able to unlock most of the game's contents.

Clear the Story and Get More Orbs!

When you finish one of the story chapters, you will get orbs. With these orbs, you can try the gacha and get more heroes (as you don't have many at the start)! We recommend collecting orbs so you can get used to the game and have more fun playing it!

The Best Ways to Get Orbs!

Use the Orbs to Change Your Castle's Design

Collect orbs so that you can change your castle's design!

One of the most imporant things to do in the early stages of Fire Emblem Heroes (FEH) is change your castle's design. When you change your castle's design, you can eventually double the amount of experience that your heroes will receive. Use orbs to change your castle design and make the most of the early stages of the game by maximizing the amount of experience that your heroes get!

Learn About the Heroes' Stats
Stat Explanation
HP Hero's Health. When this stat hits zero, you will lose the battle.
Attack How much damage a hero can do to an enemy. Both physical attacks and magic have the same strength.
Speed The stat determines if your hero can attack multiple times in one turn or perform counter-attacks. If this stat is 5 points higher than the enemy, you will be able to attack twice in one turn. However, if it is 5 points lower than the enemy then you may be the one attacked!

Your hero's speed is quite important. In order to inflct as much damage on the enemy as possible, focus on both speed and attack stats.

In Fire Emblem Heroes (FEH), you should level up a variety of heroes so that you can handle any enemy party. If you're not sure which heroes you should start leveling up, try one that has the opposite element of the one you initially got.

Support the Hero You Use Most Often

Fire Emblem Heroes (FEH) has a support system, just like the original incarnations of the game do. If the hero you want to support is within two spaces of the support hero, then you can use the support skill to give the heroes a stat boost.
