Mythic Heroes: Summon Scrolls, Stardust & Hero Shards

Mythic Heroes rewards can fund recruitment, hero leveling or duplicate-based progression. Standard scrolls, a hero token, Star Dust and a production pack are different resources. This guide explains the distinction before you spend or open a reward.

Quick answer

Diamonds and the appropriate scrolls support summons. Gold, EXP and Star Dust support levels and level barriers. Hero-specific duplicates are used for Ascension, while Enhancement is a separate use of eligible SR copies. A shard reward must first be used under its own item rules.[1][2][4][5][6]

Standard, Faction and Limited summon scrolls

Diamonds can pay for hero summons. IGG’s beginner guide recommends the ten-summon purchase rather than individual purchases; its recommendation is about the purchase format, not a promise of a particular hero.[1]

The unofficial Summoner Sanctum guide distinguishes Summon Scrolls for Standard Summon, Faction Summon Scrolls for a faction pool, and Limited Summon Scrolls for Limited Summon. The limited pool features selected SSR and UR heroes with increased appearance chances; standard summoning draws from the broader hero pool.[2]

IGG made faction selection free in patch 1.7.0, superseding older advice to spend Diamonds to change it.[3]

Hero shards, Ascension and Enhancement

The community item reference describes SR Hero Shards, SSR Hero Shards and UR Shards as pieces that combine into a random hero of the corresponding rarity. A generic rarity shard is different from a token bearing a particular hero’s identity.[4]

IGG explains that Ascension consumes duplicates of the hero being developed and raises that hero’s level ceiling. Enhancement instead consumes SR duplicates from the same faction and operates separately from leveling and Ascension.[5]

Gold, EXP and Star Dust

The fan leveling reference identifies gold, hero EXP and Stardust as hero-leveling resources, corroborated by Level Winner’s guide. The community item description adds that Stardust is required to strengthen heroes beyond certain level limits.[6][8][4]

How production-based resource packs work

The community Cubes and Resources guide quotes a Stardust pack description giving thirty times the Astrolabe of Truth’s one-spin production, excluding VIP benefits. It also explains why Cube production upgrades can change the amount an account receives from resource chests.[7]

Using the items in a mixed reward

Our advice

If a gift supplies summon scrolls while a hero is stopped at a Star Dust requirement, treat those as separate tasks. The scrolls create recruitment opportunities; they do not directly pay the level barrier. For a duplicate reward, inspect whether the copy is needed for the same hero’s Ascension or qualifies for a faction-matched Enhancement. Read any resource pack before opening it so its production basis is not mistaken for a fixed number printed in a code list.[2][4][5][6][7]

Reward and resource questions

What is Stardust used for in Mythic Heroes?

The cited item and leveling references place Star Dust at hero-level barriers, alongside the broader leveling resource requirements. It is not a summon ticket or a substitute for a missing duplicate.[4][6]

Are Ascension and Enhancement the same upgrade?

IGG’s guide distinguishes same-hero duplicates used for Ascension from eligible SR copies used for Enhancement of a hero in the same faction. Both are separate from ordinary leveling.[5]

Should I pay Diamonds to change the Faction Summon selection?

IGG’s patch 1.7.0 explicitly made changing the faction free, superseding its older beginner article’s paid-change advice. Follow the current screen rather than reusing that obsolete recommendation.[1][3]
