Heroes: Grand Conquests is back!

Grand Conquests is back once again in Fire Emblem Heroes! Prepare a powerful brigade and head to the Events page to check it out.

This time around, the map is based on Jugdral, the continent from Genealogy of the Holy War and Thracia 776. Help guide your outrealm’s army to victory by defeating enemies and gaining territory. As you win battles, you’ll gain CG Tiers for great prizes, like Orbs!

In addition to tiers and army rank rewards, you can also complete quests for more prizes. These quests refresh every 48 hours with each new battle, so make sure to complete them in time! You can earn Orbs, Hero Feathers, Crystals, and also Conquest Lances to fight more battles.

Furhermore, Heroes has implemented a few new changes to Grand Conquests. The length of each round has been doubled, and so the number of rounds per battle has been halved. They’ve also changed the method for calculating final score, as you’ll notice in this screen that pops up. Check out the notifications screen for more details.

This edition of Grand Conquests will last for six days, ending on September 4th.

Heroes: Legendary Hero (Marth: Hero-King) Hits the Stage, and Two Legendary Hero Maps

Today, for one week, marks the arrival of the new Legendary Hero, Marth. This glorious dragon slayer brings with him friends, for the duration of his week-long banner.

During this 8% summoning fest, the following Heroes can be summoned at 5 star rarity, in addition to Marth:

  • Red
    • Lene
    • Reinhardt (Sword)
  • Green
    • Alphonse (Spring)
    • Hector (Valentine)
    • Gunnthra
  • Blue
    • Fjorm
    • Lucina (Brave)
    • Nephenee
  • Colorless
    • Faye
    • Kagero (Spring)
    • Robin (Legendary, Fell Vessel)

Alongside his Res boosting Fire affinity comes a powerful unit (full details on his base skill kit here), with an average statline of [40 HP | 34 Atk | 36 Spd | 32 Def | 21 Res]. Marth himself will be available again in December, along with Fjorm.

In addition, the bonus units for the Arena have been updated. This season’s bonus units include the Choose Your Legends 2 Heroes (Hector, Ephraim, Celica and Veronica), Grand Hero Battle Narcian, Askrian Sharena, and summonable Gordin, Palla, Lute and Olwen).

Beyond that, there can be challenged not one, but two Legendary Hero maps. There is a new Legendary Hero map for Marth, Hero-King, and another for Legendary Hero Robin: Fell Vessel. Both are specifically designed specifically to challenge the best Summoners, and reward them with orbs upon completion.

What’s new this time around is the new Abyssal difficulty, unlocked after completing the Infernal difficulty version of the map. Abyssal, when completed, will reward Summoners with Golden versions of some popular accessories.

Heroes: The Next Legendary Hero is a Hero-King

That’s right, Summoners. The upcoming Legendary Hero has been revealed, and it is none other than the posterchild of Fire Emblem himself, the Hero-King Marth.

Marth brings with him an impressive kit, as an Infantry Red Sword wielder. His base kit is designed with two things in mind; playing a supportive role, and slaughtering Breath-users. He also comes as a Fire-blessed Legendary Hero, boosting Res of allies with a Fire blessing.

Marth’s Legendary Hero summoning banner will as always, bring a batch of 5* accessible Heroes with no others within their color, to hands of the Summoner, at an 8% minimum. It kicks off on August 28 at 12a PT, and runs until September 3 at 12a PT.

Along with Marth, comes:

  • Red
    • Lene
    • Reinhardt (Sword)
  • Green
    • Alphonse (Spring)
    • Hector (Valentine)
    • Gunnthra
  • Blue
    • Fjorm
    • Lucina (Brave)
    • Nephenee
  • Colorless
    • Faye
    • Kagero (Spring)
    • Robin (Legendary, Fell Vessel)

Heroes: Banner for Heroes with Healing Skills & 1st Grounds of Water Battle!

A new summoning focus is now available in Fire Emblem Heroes! Spend some Orbs on the Heroes with Healing Skills banner for your shot at Leif, L’Arachel, or Olwen: Righteous Knight.

Each of these heroes comes with a skill that helps them maintain their own HP. Both Olwen and L’Arachel have Renewal. Leif comes with the unique skill S Drink, which restores his HP to full at the start of every map. It’s perfect for long battles of multiple maps, like Chain Challenges or Tempest Trials!

The banner for Heroes with Healing Skills will end next week on 6 September.

Additionally, prepare your Water-blessed units for the first ever Grounds battle in Blessed Gardens! The Grounds of Water features two consecutive battles that you must complete with two different teams. Every hero you use must either be a Water-type Legendary Hero (Fjorm or Ryoma), or have a Water Blessing conferred to them.

The first Grounds of Water battle is Lunatic difficulty. It grants 1 Wind Blessing and also 2,000 Hero Feathers upon completion. It will never disappear, so you can take your time to complete it if necessary.
