Heroic Mode Mechanics
Entrance Requirements
In order to enter dungeons in Heroic Mode, your characters must be level 80 and possess an Item Level of 140. In KR, the required Item Level is 130 for Normal mode and 150 for Hell Mode. In addition, your character must also possess a Heroic Invitation, which can be found by killing enemies in dungeons, Secret Dungeons, or Henir's Time and Space. Entering a dungeon will automatically consume 1 Heroic Invitation.
Resurrection Stones
When playing a dungeon in Heroic Mode, the amount of Resurrection Stones that each player can use will be limited to 3. When all three Resurrection Stones are used, additional resurrections can be performed by spending K-Ching.
Heroes Assemble Buff
Similar to regular dungeons, players will receive the Heroes Assemble buff when entering dungeons on Heroic Mode through the queue system, which will increase stats in proportion with the number of players in the party. Unlike the normal buff, the Heroes Assemble buff will be weaker in Heroic Mode dungeons.
Buff | 1 Player | 2 Players | 3 Players | 4 Players |
---|---|---|---|---|
Physical/Magical Attack | +90% | +60% | +30% | 0% |
Physical/Magical Defense | +15% | +10% | +5% | 0% |
HP | +15% | +10% | +5% | 0% |
