Disney Heroes: Invasion Preview
The new Invasion feature for 1.7 builds on the Mods update that was introduced in 1.6. Both are currently only on Server 1 for the time being as they are tested and refined.
Invasion is a periodic, week-long event where individual players and guilds can compete across two different modes, Breaker Quest and Boss Battles. Giant robots are invading the City! Fight through increasingly difficult battles across the City in Breaker Quest to collect Breakers. Use your Breakers to defeat robot bosses and earn big rewards.
Overview
Invasion is meant to be the main way players can acquire new mods and mod power. Each Invasion focuses on one of the 3 hero color Teams: Yellow, Blue and Red.
So in the screenshots above, for example, the Invasion is focusing on the Yellow Team. This means Mods available to be earned will be for Yellow heroes only. It also means that Yellow heroes and Mods can be Powered Up.
Each Invasion also features 3 specific heroes who start very powered-up for the Invasion. Mods attuned to those heroes can be found in Supply Crates. All heroes can be further Powered Up during the Invasion by earning Power Up items.
Powered Up heroes and Mods are more powerful for the current Invasion only. But they will help you earn more rewards by doing better in both the Breaker Quest and Boss Battles.
Breaker Quest
Breaker Fights
Use Invasion Stamina to win fights in the Breaker Quest to earn Breakers.
Ward Fights
Each individual breaker fight has 4 wards that make its enemies stronger. If you can’t defeat a breaker fight directly, destroy the wards around it to weaken it.
Hero Pool
Your heroes’ HP and energy persist between fights in the Breaker Quest (just like City Watch). Use Hero Revives (earned from winning Breaker Fights and defeating Bosses) to revive KO’ed heroes and continue the fight.
Boss Battles
Fighting Bosses
You need breakers to attack a boss. You can spend 3 breakers at once to make a strong attack which does 5 times as much damage.
Work as a Group
If you can’t defeat the boss you find in one attack, your guild can help you out by attacking the boss as well. You have to attack your boss once before your guild will see the boss.
Rewards
Boss rewards are handed out only when the bosses is finally defeated. People who participated in attacking the boss earn rewards. Extra rewards are given out for doing large amounts of damage and other objectives. You can see all the possible rewards by pressing the view button next to the rewards.
Hero Pool
Your hero’s HP and energy persist between fights against bosses. This HP and energy is different from that in the breaker quest. You can use Hero Revives to prolong your fight against the bosses.
Invasion Shop
Boss Tech
Boss tech is awarded when you successfully defeat a boss. Spend it in the Invasion shop to buy more items to help with the current Invasion.
Boosts
Boosts are one time use items that will help you in the breaker quest but can’t be used in the boss battle. Use them to defeat particularly nasty enemy combinations.
Use ’Em or Lose ’Em!
Your boss tech and boosts will expire at the end of the Invasion. So spend them liberally! They’re there to help you get as far as possible in the current Invasion.
Power-Ups
At the start of each Invasion certain heroes are automatically powered up, making them stronger in all Invasion fights.
During the invasion you will earn hero Power-Up items that you can use to power-up your heroes further. Each power-up item will give you an option of 3 different heroes you can power up as well as the option to give a weaker power-up to a whole team of heroes. Power ups reset at the end of the Invasion.
Supply Crates
Players can buy supply crates to help them out in the Invasion. Supply Crates contain Mods, Mod Power, and other useful items. There are multiple supply crates available each Invasion, each with bigger and better rewards than the previous.
Points and Rewards
Invasion Points
Earn Invasion points by winning Breaker Fights and when a Boss you attacked is defeated.
Progress Rewards
Reach certain thresholds of Invasion Points to earn a Mod, Mod Power, Gold, Hero XP, Stamina, Disk Power, and more rewards.
Rank Rewards
Compete both against other players and other guilds to earn the most Invasion points. The higher ranked you get, the more mod power you will earn at the end of the Invasion.
Invasion Leagues
Top players and guilds will be promoted to a new league in the next Invasion, where they will be eligible for better rewards. You can also be demoted if you don’t do well enough!
