Hero Merit Rewards

Overview

Main Article: Merit Rewards

Merit Rewards are granted upon completion of Task Forces, Trials, Story Arcs and some special Events.

Story Arcs and badge missions for heroes are shown here in the order presented by the Flashback System in Ouroboros. The levels ranges for Flashbacks do not necessarily match the level ranges when these Story Arcs are offered by Contacts. See either Hero Story Arcs or Hero Souvenirs to see the level ranges when offered by Contacts.
