Ascension, the signature item, engravings, the Elder Tree and furniture

AFK Arena progression

Heroes climb 15 ascension tiers from Common to Ascended 5-star by eating copies of themselves and same-faction fodder: a hero from the four main factions is 18 Elite copies deep at Ascended 5-star. The signature item opens at Mythic, furniture at Ascended and Eternal Engravings at Ascended 1-star once stage 22-1 is cleared. The upgrade calculator adds up any range for any hero.

Common heroes (10 heroes): they can't be ascended at all.

Dimensional (34 heroes): they don't ascend on their own; Soul Fusion links one to a higher-tier hero you own and it copies that hero's tier.

Every hero that starts at Elite or Legendary, except Dimensional heroes, pays Flawless Droplets the first time it reaches a tier: 1 at Elite, 1 at Elite+, 4 at Legendary, 2 at Legendary+, 8 at Mythic, 8 at Mythic+, 4 at Ascended and 2 per star, 38 in all. Duplicate copies don't pay again.

Signature item

Unlocks at Mythic. Emblems are the faction's own; from +30 up each level can be paid with Epic emblems or faction emblems, and Epic emblems cost fewer in total.
