The following is an article on the subject of grinding for xp, mp and crystals in heroes rising. Im writing these as an early walk through for new players developing their toons.
XP grind
First and foremost, experience or XP. Every level has an experience marker that has to be reached to progress to the next level. Every time you level certain things happen.
1.Your toon will unlock 5 power card slots in each category (atk, def, mov) assuming you have 1 friend per level that you are linked with on facebook. (Message me if you have further questions on this process)
2. You will receive 1 or 2 sp depending on the level of your toon to allocate on your profile page. (It is strongly recommended you focus on movement and energy in the early goings)
3. At certain levels new gear slots will be unlocked but we will get to that in a later gear article.
The following are tactics you can execute daily to improve your energy/fight efficiency to maximize xp earned daily (level faster)
1. Raise energy to at least 25. This helps with having numerous fight club fights at your disposal and makes energy usage more efficient by storing more between game visits.
2. Once youve strengthened up a little and can defeat him, go to your friends tab and select to duel agent nova twice daily. Hes difficult at first. But eventually is a great way to harvest close to 100 xp with 2 fights.
3. Atk only sure wins. Once you get an idea of you you can beat and who you cannot, only burn fights on wins. You get nothing from a loss but the fight still counts.
4. Complete all daily tasks to earn free xp along with some much needed bux.
5. Use all gifts daily. But be smart. If you have 25 energy max, and you currently have 16 energy. Dont use a 10 energy refill gift. Go burn 1 energy on a mission. Then use the energy refill. Never use a gift that puts you beyond max. Its just wasted resource.
6. Be sure to gift daily to keep the gift revenue coming in.
MP grind
1. Join every single fight club. Joining fight club automatically gives you 2 MPs just for joining.
2. Search out videos in the mp tab when they are available. Sometimes there will be sponsor ads where you can watch a short video to earn MP.
3. Become involved in the Heroes Rising Sentinel and fan-fiction in the fiction forum. Write articles, write fan fiction, write a story from your toon's history, write ideas and proposals for expanding the community. This is the link to the Heroes Rising Sentinel page:

And this is the link to the fiction forum:

Sentinel editorial gets MPs too, no limit to submissions which earn 10 MP each, and published entries get 20 MP plus a weekly card worth 30 MP and a monthly card worth 120 MP (check the page for details). If you post an article each week and it gets published, you get 10+20+30+120=180 MP for the first one and 60 MP for each other article until the new month cycles over.
But make it something worth reading. If you write an article. Make it well thought out and something you can express a studied, tested and trustworthy opinion on.
Crystal grind
Imo the most important grind is the crystals. These will be used to supplement your deck while you focus most of your bucks on movement powers. And all of your MPs on gear (we will cover that later this week)
Once you reach level 40 and 44 respectively, crystal atk and def cards become available. This has given you substantial time to get those numbers up! These are some tips to get your crystal count up.
1. Join every single fight club! Joining gets you 10 crystals automatically.
2. Harvest crystals from your friends. If you are linked to a fb friend in game (they are on your team on your friends page) you can go to their profile page and harvest their crystals for them and net 1 for yourself. Visit them all daily. If you seek to grind, many crystals await.
3. Use your fc fights intelligently. As you progress through a fc, every fight requires more energy to fight again. You receive double the number of crystals as energy you burned per fight won.
Say you walk into fc. You see you are one of 20 guys in the club. You know from experience you can only beat lets say 5 of these guys?
Why fight them number 1,2,3,4,5 other than for energy efficiency? If your cards are not saturated you would like to gain some additional crystals. Fight some tougher opponents first for cheap energy. Save those lay up opponents for your last fights. You will burn more energy getting to that point. But you will ensure you double 20+ energy in crystals x5 for a net of 100+ crystals.
Rather than netting a total of perhaps approx 50.
It"s attacking with purpose.
