Though we’re fairly deep into Book IV in Fire Emblem Heroes, the driving antagonist of Book III is just now getting her due as a summonable “hero”. Hel is an original character for Heroes, queen of the realm of the dead that shares her name and mother of (the original Mythic Hero) Eir. Based on her skills, she’s due to live up to her station.
Her weapon in particular really sets her apart, having a built in Miracle effect as well as accelerating her specials, removing her flying weaknesses, and targeting Res for enemies that don’t wield magic themselves. To put it another way, she looks at a handful of the game’s understood expectations and just says “Nah.”
Joining her will be other Legendary, Mythic, and desirable heroes at the increased 8% rate these focuses carry. You can test your luck and orbs when Hel arrives in game on July 30th.
