Heroes

Main Hero

When you first start the game, you will be asked to name your Main Hero. The main hero is going to be what determines your Base Tap Damage . Every time you tap the monster, it will do your Base Tap Damage plus any Tap Damage Modifiers you may have.

The main hero also has Active Skills that you unlock at levels 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, and 600.

Each skill is on a separate cooldown and can be modified by Artifacts you may have. The arguably most important skill of the main hero is the one you unlock at level 600, Prestige . Prestige is what you use to earn Relics to purchase Artifacts . You will want to use Prestige once you can’t advance through the stages very quickly anymore. The idea is that you will run into walls that can only be passed by obtaining and leveling Artifacts .

Tip: Do not level your Main Hero past level 600. You will receive almost no Tap Damage from leveling them anymore and you get no new skill unlocks.
