Heroes of Dragon Age – Walkthrough, Wiki, FAQ and Beginner’s Guide, Part 3


Welcome to part three of the Heroes of Dragon Age beginner’s guide! Click here to go back to part two of the guide.

Other methods of beefing up your cards include consuming and combining. Consuming allows you to sacrifice up to six cards to power up one card. Your powered up card will gain experience points, and will also increase its chances of a critical hit, which does two times the amount of damage as a normal hit. Critical hit chances will increase far more quickly than experience points will. Recruit card packs are a great way to earn cards as fodder for combining.



Combining cards will allow you to put two identical cards together to create a more powerful version of that card, with a new name (for example, two Bears will make a Bear II) and slightly modified graphics, as well as the combined experience points of both cards. Using two higher-tier cards will give additional experience point bonuses when you combine cards.

Organizing your party in certain ways will add to the strategic bonuses, as well. You have four normal heroes and one Large Creature. Your two front normal heroes will receive a health bonus, and your two rear heroes will have extra chances at a critical hit. You’ll also earn faction bonuses if all of your cards are of the same faction (blue, red, black, white, etc). Some of your cards (especially rarer heroes) will have two factions, enabling greater mix-and-match flexibility.


There is a social component to the game as well. Any time that you battle someone, you can then add them as an ally. There is currently no co-op way to use your allies’ heroes in battle, but you can always battle your allies again. You can rematch anybody who has attacked you before by going to the History screen, looking down the list, and choosing who you want to fight.

Want even more details? Check out the options menu, and go to either the Health or FAQ area. You’ll find a number of frequently asked questions and beginner’s tips to the game in both of those places. Plus, you can mess with the sound and the push notification options in there.

Congratulations – you have just finished the beginner’s guide to Heroes of Dragon Age! Enjoy the game!
