How to Get Hero Essence in AFK Journey

Just like in any other RPG, you need to level up your heroes in AFK Journey to make them stronger. For this, of course, Experience and Gold are required. But upon reaching certain milestones, you will need another upgrade material called Hero Essence, which we will tell you about in this guide.

Hero Essence is a necessary material for upgrading characters every 10 levels. And for this reason, it is much rarer than Experience. Therefore, you should start farming it in advance so as not to get stuck at every 10th level when upgrading your characters.

What Is Hero Essence in AFK Journey?

As we said, every 10th level up requires using Hero Essence, Gold, and Experience. Even after reaching the level cap, you will need Hero Essence to upgrade your team further. The lack of this material will completely stop your progression in the game.

How to Get Hero Essence in AFK Journey

Even though Hero Essence can be obtained in many ways, it remains a somewhat hard-to-farm material in AFK Journey. The fact is that you need to do almost all the activities of the game at the same time. It is the only way to collect enough Hero Essence and level up your AFK characters to the max. For your convenience, here are all the ways to get this material in the game:

Events - AFK Journey almost always hosts various events. And by taking part in them, you will receive many rewards, including the coveted leveling material.
Battle Pass - Progress in Noble Path, and you can get Hero Essence, even if you are free-to-play.
Quests - Complete various quests, including daily quests, Growth Path, and Growth Trial quests.
Legend Trials - Progress in Legend Trials and certain floors will reward you with Hero Essence.
World of Activity - While traveling, look for chests and fight enemies for a small chance of getting this material.
AFK Reward - Collect your AFK rewards as often as possible, as this is the best source of Hero Essence in AFK Journey.
Essence Hourglasses - This item can be obtained as a Friend Chest drop. And the more Stages you have completed, the more Hero Essence it will give you. Therefore, it is better to save this item for later instead of using it at the beginning of the game.
