Rising Glory F2P Guide | Hero Wars Alliance
Greetings, Guardians, and welcome back to Olympus Alliance. This Rising Glory F2P Guide takes a careful look at Rising Legends, the opening chapter of the brand-new Ascendant of Glory event in Hero Wars Alliance. Before you rush to tap every milestone in sight, it is worth understanding exactly where your resources should go — and, just as importantly, where they absolutely should not.
Rather than throwing everything at you in one enormous video, we are covering this event step by step. Today we begin with Rising Legends. Tomorrow we will review Trial of Legends, and on the third day we will bring it all together with Sparks of Glory, calculate what we can realistically earn, and dig into the Event Shop to discuss what actually makes sense to buy.
What Rising Legends Actually Is
Ascendant of Glory is not a single event but three connected events launching across these days. Because they overlap, it is easy to feel pressured into spending everywhere at once. Instead, this Rising Glory F2P Guide keeps the focus narrow: Rising Legends first, so you can plan the opening days with a clear head. Trial of Legends follows tomorrow, and Sparks of Glory ties the whole thing together shortly after.
One detail matters throughout. Alongside the direct rewards, there are additional Rising Legends prizes waiting inside the Sparks of Glory tab, and those are unlocked based on the total number of tasks you complete. We will cover them properly when we reach Sparks of Glory. For now, though, our target is roughly 240 completed tasks, which we believe is both achievable and genuinely worthwhile without draining your account dry.
The Free-to-Play Mindset: Why You Shouldn’t Spend Yet
Here is the important part about how we are approaching this. We are reviewing Rising Legends primarily from the perspective of a Free-to-Play player, which means we are not chasing the absolute theoretical maximum. Players who want to push harder can obviously complete more tasks and earn more Event Shop Coins, and that choice is entirely yours to make.
Our objective is different. We simply want to see what looks realistically achievable without needlessly draining resources just because a shiny new event has appeared. Events keep arriving, and resource management remains one of the most important parts of progressing efficiently — so treat every milestone as a choice, never an obligation.
The Eight Task Categories at a Glance
Rising Legends contains eight task categories in total. To keep things simple, here is our Free-to-Play read on each one before we break down the trickier decisions in detail.
The Easy Free Wins
Day After Day is exactly what it sounds like: log in every day throughout the seven-day event and collect your rewards. Nothing complicated, nothing to spend. Taming Hydra is almost as friendly, and it is one of the most Free-to-Play-approachable parts of the whole event. Your three free Hydra attacks each day are enough to clear the relevant daily progression, so simply use them and go slay some Hydra heads.
Cycle of Success rounds out the effortless trio. The goal here is to defeat up to 10 Realm Boss Monsters while acting as the Raid Leader, and the World Energy you gather through normal play should make that manageable. As a bonus, you keep progressing through the Realm while you do it.
The Titan Tasks: Handle With Care
Hidden Reserves asks you to spend Fairy Dust, with the maximum daily requirement reaching 10,000. Since that sits only slightly above what most players pull from Hydra activity each day, completing it across the event is realistic. There is one firm warning, though: Fairy Dust is valuable, so never upgrade a random Titan just to tick a box. If you are spending it anyway, spend it on Titans that already belong in your progression plan.
Summoning Titans requires opening up to 50 Titan Summoning Spheres per day, which works out to 350 across the week. For established accounts sitting on a stockpile, that is far from a huge ask, and every completed task feeds into the larger Sparks of Glory reward pool. If you are starting from zero, however, adjust the target to whatever your account can genuinely support rather than forcing it.
The Judgement Calls
Power Core is probably the most controversial task in Rising Legends. Full progression demands spending 50 Cores per day, and very few Free-to-Play players can realistically sustain that for a full week. We think the five-Cores-per-day milestone is the smarter target instead. That still adds up to 35 Cores over seven days, so do not do it blindly — but between the event rewards and the extra task completions feeding Sparks of Glory, that lighter tier can make sense.
Trial of Strength sends you to the Arena for up to 15 battles per day. Reaching all 15 means going beyond your free attempts, and completing the full daily task costs 150 Emeralds. Here is why the spend can still be reasonable: the Arena itself returns Emeralds depending on your League. Champions II can hand back around 1,000 Emeralds per day, while Champions I returns roughly 300, so players holding those positions may cover that 150-Emerald cost from the rewards alone. Look at your own League first — if the extra runs fit your progression, great; if not, there is no reason to force them. And if the Arena is giving you grief, we have plenty of Olympus Alliance videos on counters, team building, and stronger defenses.
Finally, Generous Soul is the one we set aside entirely. It rewards VIP Points, and since this is a Free-to-Play review, we assume zero. If you were already planning to spend, you will naturally collect extras here — but it is not part of our reference path.
Realistic Targets for This Rising Glory F2P Guide
Pulling it all together, we are deliberately not trying to complete absolutely everything. We ignore VIP progression, cap Power Core at a sensible five per day, use resources only where the investment stays reasonable, and lean on the activities that already fit into normal daily play. Following that route, our target lands at approximately 240 completed tasks.
If everything goes to plan, those tasks should produce 150,000 Ascension Crests, 24,150 Adventure Coins, and 710 Season Pass Trophies along the way. That is a strong haul for a Free-to-Play run that never once torches your reserves chasing a milestone you did not need.
What Comes Next
Remember, this is only the first piece of the puzzle. Tomorrow we will review Trial of Legends using the exact same Free-to-Play lens. Then, once Sparks of Glory is live, we will combine all three parts, calculate the overall progression, and step into the Event Shop to see what your resources can actually buy. That final stage is where things get genuinely interesting, so save this Rising Glory F2P Guide and check back before you commit anything.
Until then, do not rush your resources today just because a row of milestones is glowing at you. Look at the entire week, weigh what your account truly needs, and make every decision with the full event in mind. Stay tuned, stay sharp, and as always — salute and friendship.
