Gems, Holy Water, Scales and Social Points
Gems are the premium currency. You do get some from in-game activites and achievements. So my best advice is save up all the gems you get to purchase the 11 monster summons pack. Monsters are absolutely necessary in evolution and upgrading, so you're going to need as many as possible. Find out why here.
Holy water is the equivalent to energy. Holy water is used only in running dungeons. Make sure you getting generating it over time, by using it all.
Scales are used in activities such as arena, tower of heroes, raid dungeon and the broken abyss. Use this all up as well.
Social points are gained by sending love to your friends and receiving love from your friends. I almost always spend it on minimon summons.
Minimon, Heros & Mutants
Minimon are like pets. You can use them to form a team around your hero. What makes minimon special is that you can use 3 of them at once in your team. Unlike heros, that you can only have 1 at a time. Minimon come with many different skills. Finding the minimon that synergize well with your hero is key to the success of your squad.
Heros are your team leaders. You can only use 1 hero per team, and they give your entire minimon team leader bonuses. For example, Noen gives my entire team a 4% boost to their attack power. Heros are never lower than 4-star grade. Heros are also the only member of your team that can be damaged. And if your hero dies, you lose the stage or arena fight you are in. Keep this in mind when you are deciding who to give that 4 star chest piece to!
Mutants are the evolved form of 6 star heros. They require you to combine 2 6-star heros that are max level and max upgrade. And to complete the mutation, they require a mutant evolution stone. You get these by chance when combining 2 4-star evolution stones. In this process you can either get a 5-star evolution stone, or a mutant evolution stone. As you can imagine, mutants take a very long time to acquire. Learn more about evolving mutants.
Upgrades, Leveling & Evolving
Upgrading is when you "feed" a minimon of lesser value to another minimon to upgrade its stats. You can tell the upgrade level of your minimon by the 1+ 2+ or MAX annotation in their portrait.
Leveling is the process of increasing the power of your minimon. Minimon and heros have a maximum level of 30. And mutants have a max level of 35. Max level is one of the requirements to evolution.
Evolution is the process of increasing a minimons grade (stars). There are two types of evolution.
- Random Evolution
- Fixed Evolution
Random evolution requires you combine 2 minimon (or heros). These minimon need to be of the same grade, max level and max upgrade. When you combine those minimon you will receive a random minimon. If you combine 2 3-star minimon, you have a random chance of getting a 4-star hero.
Fixed evolution is the other type of evolution. It's called fixed because it is the only way to evolve a hero or minimon into the same hero of a higher grade. You can perform a fixed evolution by combining a hero or minimon with an evolution stone of the same grade. For example, combining a 5-star Ariel with a 5-star light evolution stone, will get you a 6-star Ariel.

Evolution Stones
These are stones you gather in daily dungeons. Like the name would suggest you can only run these dungeons daily, unless you have a rediculous amount of gems to throw away.
Here's the evolution stone schedule:
Monday - Dark Stone
Tuesday - Fire Stone
Wednesday - Ice Stone
Thurday - Nature Stone
Friday - Light Stone
Saturday - Gold baby, gold!
Sunday - Random stone of any attribute
Please note: Failing a dungeon run DOES NOT consume you daily chance. Try running the hardest you can, you'll only spend your daily chance if you successfully complete a run and receive a stone.
