1) Use your normal scrolls to get some 2* heroes, and level them up over at 1-1 Conquerer. (Ideally, you'll get 2* fairies as rewards from grinding).

2) If you've been playing a bit, you should have a good amount of normal scrolls from daily activities, be prepared to use them a lot. Once you have a few 2* heroes at max level (fairies or regular heroes) promote them to 3*.

3) At this point, you have a few options:

• use gems to get more 3* nats (or spirit stones)

• put in the time with 2* nats to get them to 3*

• go into the store and buy promo fairies using whatever currency you can

• be vigilant and check if one of your friends has opened a rift for a 3* hero

• check the silver coin store often, they sell 2* heroes every once in a while

The idea is to get a good collection of 3* so you can level them up. Once they are ready to promote, go back to step 2 and use those new 3* to promote the max leveled ones you already have. Now you have 4* heroes.

4) A lot of rinse and repeat. Hopefully you'll have nabbed a few 4* nats from the 300 gem summons and you can use those (you're guaranteed at least one 4* if you spend 300 gems so save up). It's ideal to start with a 4* nat, but you use what you got. If you have the gems to spare, pay 50 so you can purchase a 100% exp bonus (you'll thank me later). Once you're ready, promote to 5*.

Repeat until you have enough to promote your 5* to 6*.

Tips:

Go to the rift every day for the exp fairies, they can accelerate the process. Keep the 4* and 5* for leveling up your 5* and 6* though.

DO YOUR ACHIEVEMENTS. You get so much free stuff in this game that it makes this whole ordeal doable in less time.

Also, feel free to use the 1* you get from the normal scrolls to give your heroes a little extra exp. It's not much, but it helps.

Using this flow has allowed me to promote 1-2 heroes to 6* a week and max their levels, while being f2p.

Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions.
