Acquisition[edit]

This title is acquired through fame. Fame is a system of points given to players who win battles in Heroes' Ascent. The amount of fame earned per victory depends on the number of consecutive wins, up to a maximum of 40:

Consecutive wins 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16
Fame earned 1 2 3 4 6 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 40 40 28 (40)
Total fame earned 1 3 6 10 16 24 36 52 72 96 124 156 192 232 272 300 (max)

There is a 300 fame cap per day, which is reset at 15:00 UTC (7:00 AM PST). The cap is doubled during the Heroes' Ascent weekly bonus. It thus takes 16 consecutive wins to reach the cap, double week or not.

Notes[edit]

  • Your character can display this title from rank 3 upwards.
    • You can activate the default emote for your rank by typing /fame or /rank. (To choose a lower-ranked emote, type /fame # or /rank #, where 1 = deer, 2 = wolf, 3 = tiger, 4 = phoenix, and 5 = dragon.)
    • As noted in the introduction, the title can only be added to the Hall of Monuments after reaching rank 6.
  • The phoenix and dragon emotes are stationary; the others follow your character as you move.
  • Many players use this title as a measure of another player's competency in HA and will only accept players who meet their criteria into their party.

Trivia[edit]

  • The prefixes for the tiers in the Hero title track are similar to those used in the Champion and Gladiator title tracks.
  • The September 25, 2014 update introduced a limit on the amount of fame that can be gained in one day.
    • Prior to that update, you would need to win 2,509 times consecutively to gain the 100,000 fame needed to max this title. This would take over 500 hours of holding Halls.
