Using Shards
To use shards the player has to collect a specific amount of Shards.

Buying Shards
Shards can be bought for Hero Points in the shop. 20 packs of shards can be bought for each available hero with 15 Shards for a rare heroe in each pack or 20 Shards for an legendary or epic hero. The available heroes are random, changing every 12 hours with 2 rare, 3 legendary and 1 epic character.

Getting Shards from favorites
Heroes can be marked as favorites generating Shards when covers are bought from the Recruiting Heroes section. If multiple heroes from one rank are marked as favorite the Shards are generated randomly as well as when no hero is marked as favorite. Heroes that are marked as new or limited can't be chosen as favorites.
