Balance of Power Shop Guide in Hero Wars Alliance
This Balance of Power Shop Guide breaks down every Sigil Coin you can realistically earn from all three Week 2 events, then shows you exactly what to buy inside the Sanctum of Balance Shop once you get there. We’re keeping every number conservative on purpose, so these totals should be achievable for the majority of Guardians, not just the players who clear every single task.
Before the math, there’s one detail you need to know. The CMs have confirmed that three more events following this same structure are coming in future weeks. That means you’ll eventually collect enough Relic Shards to unlock any hero available in the Sanctum of Balance Shop. Your Sigil Coins, however, will not carry over. Once this event ends, whatever coins you haven’t spent simply disappear, so make sure your wallet is empty before the timer runs out. If you’re collecting Relic Shards but can’t afford your target hero yet, don’t stress about it. Pick the hero you actually want, since the upcoming events will get you there.
Defiant Edge: Sigil Coin Breakdown
Defiant Edge offers the biggest payout of the three events. Here’s what we counted, and what we deliberately left out.
- Day After Day – full reward counted: 3,500 Sigil Coins
- Generous Soul – excluded (requires spending money)
- Energy of Evolution – based on 950 Energy spent per day across seven days: 6,650 Sigil Coins
- On a Titanic Scale – counted every day of the event: 24,150 Sigil Coins
- Price of Power – excluded (many Guardians, especially those with maxed Hero Skins, can’t complete it)
- Summoning Titans – only one day counted, since not everyone spends 125 Titan Spheres daily: 4,800 Sigil Coins
- Successful Fighter – only the five free Arena battles per day: 4,200 Sigil Coins for the week
- Payback Time – full week of Rally Boss kills counted: 39,200 Sigil Coins
Add it all up and Defiant Edge alone delivers a conservative 82,500 Sigil Coins.
Unbroken Bond: Sigil Coin Breakdown
Unbroken Bond has a lower ceiling, but it’s still worth every task we’re counting.
- Day After Day – 3,500 Sigil Coins
- Generous Soul – excluded (spending task)
- Value Exchange – excluded (depends on personal Emerald strategy)
- Titanic Contribution – 8,200 Sigil Coins
- Rune Might – excluded (Rune Stone availability varies too much per account)
- Awakening – based on 150 of the 875 available Elemental Spheres: 2,600 Sigil Coins
- The Way Up – 11 Tower attempts per day, 77 clears total: 4,600 Sigil Coins
- Ultimate Champion – free Grand Arena attempts only, roughly 70 battles across the week: 1,800 Sigil Coins
That brings Unbroken Bond to a conservative total of 20,700 Sigil Coins. Remember, these numbers are intentionally low, so most Guardians will finish with more.
Gear and Glory: Sigil Coin Breakdown
Gear and Glory might be the best-designed event of the three. Guardians with a maxed Tristan can log in and collect huge rewards instantly, while newer players get rewarded simply for developing him further.
- Soaring Might – level Tristan to 120: 3,000 Sigil Coins
- Leading Warrior – progression counted up to Rank 8: 4,150 Sigil Coins
- Awakened Glyphs – excluded (too many players have different priorities here)
- Gift of the Elements – 1,700 Sigil Coins
- Artifact tasks – excluded (Artifact progression takes too long for newer accounts)
Gear and Glory closes out at a conservative 8,850 Sigil Coins.
Balance of Power Shop Guide: Total Sigil Coins This Week
Here’s the full picture once every event is combined.
| Event | Sigil Coins Earned |
|---|---|
| Defiant Edge | 82,500 |
| Unbroken Bond | 20,700 |
| Gear and Glory | 8,850 |
| Grand Total | 122,050 |
These are minimum calculations. Plenty of tasks were deliberately left out, so many Guardians will finish this week well above 122,050 Sigil Coins.
What to Buy in the Sanctum of Balance Shop
Now for the fun part. Inside the Sanctum of Balance Shop you’ll find Miu, Kendle, equipment, Mixed Artifact Chests, and a handful of useful resources. Realistically though, the real stars of the shop are the Relic Shards.
With a minimum of 122,050 Sigil Coins, you already have enough to grab 20 Relic Shards for any hero you choose, since that purchase costs 93,000 Sigil Coins. That matters even if you don’t currently own the hero. You can start stockpiling their Relic Shards right now, and once you unlock the hero, Generic Relic Shards will help you keep upgrading those Relics from there.
With three more events confirmed on the same structure, you’ll eventually reach 60 Relic Shards, which is more than enough to unlock your chosen hero’s Relics entirely. So choose carefully now, because this Balance of Power Shop Guide is only covering the first step of a much longer road.
Which Hero Should You Pick First?
If it were our own account, we’d personally go for Lian first, followed by Alvanor. That said, this is only one opinion. Every Guardian has different heroes, different priorities, and a completely different way of playing the game. Don’t shop for what looks shiny. Shop for whatever will actually make your account stronger.

Final Thoughts
This week’s Balance of Power Shop Guide gives you a realistic, conservative path to a grand total of 122,050 Sigil Coins across Defiant Edge, Unbroken Bond, and Gear and Glory. Spend everything before the event timer runs out, since nothing carries over, and keep stacking Relic Shards toward the hero you actually want. Three more events are already confirmed, so this is just the beginning of the road to the Sanctum of Balance Shop.
