The Growth ladder, decoded

Hero Collection has two tabs, and the second one is the quiet one. Collection pays the 184 set bonuses; Growth — the screen players keep posting in Discord to ask "how do I win these prizes?" — is a fixed 53-rung ladder of account-wide stat bonuses that unlocks as your heroes' star grades climb. Below is every rung, the one or two bonuses it pays, and a decode of every option code the cards print.

How the star total moves

The number under the star icon at the top of the Growth tab is not a currency you spend — it is the sum of every owned hero's star grade.

• Each hero carries its own ★ ladder, six grades deep (CostumeStarGradeOptionData: 156 rows = 26 hero groups × 6 grades). The first star is priced at exactly that hero's recruit cost (10, 30, 50, 70, 100 shards depending on the hero), and the five grades above it cost 30, 60, 150, 300, 600 shards for every hero alike. So a hero you already own is already worth its first star, and every star after that is a flat shard step.
• Six is the cap for all 26 heroes (CostumeData.Max_Grade is 6 across the whole roster), which is exactly why the ladder tops out at 156★: 26 × 6 = 156. The last rung is not a prestige number — it needs every hero in the game at 6★.
• Nothing has to be won. There is no roll, box or timer on this track; the rungs are thresholds you cross, then Claim by hand. Hero chests and the hero step-up packs change how fast you climb, not what the rungs pay. The screen itself opens once you clear quest 168 (ContentUnlockData / OpenCostumeCodex).

Reading the screen

All 53 rungs

Every threshold, in order, with the exact card text the game prints. Values are stored as whole percents. 6 rungs pay a single bonus; the other 47 pay a pair. Rows shaded amber are the weapon-class block (126★ – 141★).

The labels, decoded

The cards use the game's short hero-bonus wording. Here is each code the ladder pays, the card text, the stat the game names it after, and who it lands on — the track itself is account-wide, but the weapon and attack-type bonuses only feed the heroes that use them.

The rest of the vocabulary: the option pool has 8 more codes this ladder never pays (Life Steal Up, Skill Cooldown Reduce, Evasion Up, Move Speed Up, Attack Speed Up, Multi-Attack Up, Triple Attack Up, Enhanced Atk Up) — they roll on hero traits, runes and weapon bonus options instead. The six weapon-class rows are the one family without a hero-bonus label key; for those the table prints the stat name StatData gives the code, which is the wording the game's stat screens use.

What the whole ladder is worth

Add every rung up and the track pays this much, per stat. The biggest single pile is HP Recovery Up at +110% across 7 rungs.

Shape of the ladder

• Front-loaded breadth. The first 26 rungs spread thin across combat, survival and economy stats — 1★ to 75★ is a mixed bag, and no single bonus on that half is worth more than +14%.
• The weapon block. 126★ – 141★ pays one rung per weapon class — Crossbow Attack Power · Dagger Attack Power · Gun Attack Power · Morningstar Attack Power · Sword Attack Power · Wand Attack Power — each at +28%, so no weapon class gets a better rung than another.
• The finale. After the weapon block the ladder returns to broad stats and ends at 156★ on the two weapon-wide damage rates — Melee and Ranged — as the send-off for a maxed collection.
• It is not the collection sets. The set bonuses (184 of them) pay on membership; this ladder pays on total stars. They stack, and both are permanent account buffs.
