Read on ahead to find out what the Hero Heart in Clash of Clans is and how it will change your gameplay.

What is Hero Heart in Clash of Clans?

In Clash of Clans, there are quite a few Heroes, such as Royal Champion or Archer Queen, who take a lot of time to heal before they can attack again, leading to waiting times of up to thirty minutes.

To ease this issue, Heroes have been provided with an additional life, or the Hero Heart, bestowing the Hero with a bonus life that they can use to sustain themselves longer in battle.

When a Hero returns from battle to the Home Village after taking damage, the Extra Life health is used towards healing these battle-worn champions. For example:

• If a Hero has 50% Health left at the end of an attack and the Extra Life bar is at 100%, then that Hero is fully healed and the Extra Life bar is reduced to 50%.
• If a Hero is reduced to 0% Health and the Extra Life bar is 100% full, then the Hero will be fully healed and the Extra Life bar is reduced to 0%.
• If a Hero is reduced to 0% and the Extra Life bar is 50% full, then the Hero is healed 50% and the Extra Life bar is reduced to 0%.

The Hero Heart will only begin to regenerate once the Hero’s health is full at 100%. The Hero Heart is shown as a heart icon beside the Hero’s HP. When the Hero Heart is fully regenerated, it will display a heart icon with a “+1.”
