If a hero's resolve level is too low for an expedition, that hero gets additional stress on entering the dungeon (20 stress for every level of difference) and will take more stress damage than normal (+25% stress for every level of difference). If the Helping Hand event is in effect, all heroes will be willing to partake in quests of any difficulty. In Radiant campaigns, these rules are relaxed resolve level 3 and 4 heroes can join an Apprentice expedition, and resolve level 5 and 6 heroes can join a Veteran expedition.

If a hero's current resolve level exceeds the quest difficulty by 2 or more, they will refuse to be added to the party and will not embark on the quest.

Apprentice expeditions can be considered Level 1, suitable for resolve level 1 and 2 heroes, Veteran expeditions can be considered level 3, appropriate for resolve level 3 and 4 heroes, and Champion difficulty expeditions can be considered level 5, suitable for resolve level 5 and 6 heroes. In Darkest (normal) and Stygian Difficulty campaigns, heroes will join expeditions when their resolve level is equal to or one greater than the expedition's level. Resolve level also unlocks access to stronger equipment to be purchased at the Blacksmith and higher level abilities to be acquired at the Guild.

Resolve Level governs the overall strength of heroes, increasing their resistances and allowing for improvements on their abilities and equipment.Įach resolve level increases hero chance to disarm traps and resistances to stun, blight, bleed, move and debuff by 10%.
