Easy Hero Levelling Up !!!

Pre-requisites (must haves):
  • Military Tradition at level 8 or better (level 10 preferred)
  • Iron Working at level 8 or better (level 10 preferred)
  • A Rally Spot at level 8 or better (to enable the dispatch of 80K troops, or more)
  • An NPC level 8 within a 4 minute marching distance (~8 minute round-trip)
  • A minimum of 80K warriors, or more (to enable 2 hits on the NPC, before allowing it to cool down)
Attack the NPC using a lvl10-15 hero (base50+ atk) and your maximum compliment of warriors.

Wait 6-8 minutes between attacks to guarantee medal/item drops and alot of experience and possible prestige.

This is also a very nice way to farm Wisdom, Courage and Freedom medals.

5-6 hits should get a hero from level ~10 to level 40 (or more).

:) At first you should be getting 55-65K deaths. But, this should turn into 3000+ prestige and 800K+ experience points. And, remember, as your hero strengthens, the less casualties (deaths) will be had, leading to lesser experience points and prestige being awarded.

:) :) Taken this in mind, if you are a prestige addict, it may be worth your while hiring heroes from your inn that are level 10-15 with base50+ attack. With these 'cannon fodder' heroes, attack an NPC8 with 80K warriors, and then FIRE them upon their return, replacing them with another 'like' hero for the next attack. Then, watch your prestige quickly grow!

REMEMBER: If you are using this method on a hero that is going to be kept ("a keeper"), then do not forget to upgrade it between attacks.

Here is an example: I used this technique to level-up my king. All research was at level 10 and the gear he was wearing was level 6...
