Heroes are special units that can only be used in the multiplayer (PvP). They may be summoned at a high tactical point cost and are very powerful, coming fully equipped. Proper use of a hero can turn the tide of battle. Heroes must be researched in the Temple of Conquest before being able to use them. Elite heroes operate just like regular heroes, just more powerful with a higher cost. Elite heroes must be researched in the Temple of Conquest before being able to use them, and cannot be researched until the associated regular hero has been fully researched.
