Ultimate Summon Heroes Beginner Guide: Fast Leveling & Meta Units
Just started your journey in Summon Heroes and want to catch up with the top players? Using codes is a great start, but knowing how to manage your resources is the real key to success. Many new players waste their Gems on weak banners or ignore essential upgrades. In this guide, we’ll walk you through a proven step-by-step plan: from smart Gem spending to picking the best starter units that will help you dominate the early game.

Phase 1: Smart Resource Management & Early Investments
After redeeming all active codes, you’ll have a solid stack of Gems. Resist the urge to spend them all on random summons immediately.
Inventory Expansion
This is your first priority. If you plan on using AFK farming, you need space. A small inventory will stop your character from collecting loot after just 20-30 minutes. Expand your slots to at least 50-70 right at the start to maximize your offline gains.
Utilizing Luck Boosters
Never perform a "Mass Summon" without an active Luck Booster. Even a small percentage increase significantly improves your chances of pulling Legendary or Mythic tier heroes. Patience is key—wait for the boost!
Phase 2: Top 3 Best Starter Units (Current Meta)
You don't need to be a "whale" to build a powerful team. Focus on these three units that are currently the easiest to obtain and upgrade:
1. Dragoon Isadora — The Ultimate Carry
Isadora is the queen of speed. Her Area of Effect (AoE) attacks allow her to clear waves of enemies single-handedly. She is your ticket to unlocking new worlds quickly. Pour your attack-stat resources into her first.
The screenshot above shows the Fuse Units menu, where you can combine heroes (e.g., Dragoon) to increase their star level and base stats like ATK and SPD.
2. Captain Dreadmoor — The Unstoppable Tank
Dreadmoor is the best tank available for F2P (Free-to-Play) players. His ability to soak up massive damage keeps your glass-cannon dealers safe in the backline. Always place him in the front row of your squad.
The screenshot above shows the boss fight against Captain Dreadmoor. Don't let his power intimidate you; once you summon him to your squad, he becomes your most reliable tank.
3. Bear Tamer — Crowd Control & Support
His bear not only deals decent damage but also stuns enemies. His shards are frequently dropped in early-game Dungeons, making him one of the easiest high-value units to evolve and star up.
Phase 3: Fast Leveling Strategy (XP Farming)
Your account level unlocks new features and stronger units. Here is how to power-level effectively:
Prioritize Story Quests
Don’t get stuck farming one area for too long. As soon as you feel strong enough to beat the world boss, move to the next zone. The XP gain in new worlds is usually 30-50% higher than in previous ones.
AFK Training & Dungeons
Whenever you are away from the game, leave your character in the designated AFK training zones. Additionally, never miss your daily Dungeon limits. Dungeons are the only reliable source for evolution materials that you will desperately need later.
Use AFK Mode in the training gym whenever you are away. This allows your character to automatically farm coins and Gems, significantly boosting your overall progress with zero effort.
Phase 4: Understanding Hero Traits
A Trait is an extra stat that can turn a decent hero into an absolute beast.
-
For Isadora, aim for Attack Speed traits.
-
For Dreadmoor, look for HP or Damage Reduction.
-
Pro Tip: Don’t waste rare reroll scrolls on any unit below Epic rank. Save them for your end-game carries.
