Fire Emblem Heroes Guide: 20 Crucial Tips & Tricks You Need To Know

When you’ve earned a few Orbs, you’ll want to spend those on summoning new Heroes. You can summon a Hero once you have five Orbs - but in order to get the best bang for your buck, you’ll want to hold off until you have at least 20 of them.

When you decide to summon, you will be presented with five stones of varying colours. The colours of the stones represent the heroes that will be summoned when you unlock them (Red, Blue, Green, or Grey).

You may unlock as many of the stones as you want, providing you have the Orbs to keep going. But summoning multiple heroes from a group of five stones will decrease the summoning cost.

The first one will cost 5 Orbs; the second, third, and fourth will cost 4 Orbs each, and the fifth will cost just 3 Orbs.

Therefore, bringing a total of 20 Orbs will allow you to summon Heroes from all five stones and maximise your value. If you are in a situation where you decide you have no interest in heroes of a certain colour, however, you might decide it isn’t worth your Orbs to summon from those stones even with the discount.
