To unlock Helen in Game of Sultans, collect 100 Helen shards during the limited-time "Beauty and the Beast" event. Helen cannot be recruited through main campaign progress, routine prestige achievements, or standard recruitment menus.
Earning Shards in the Beauty and the Beast Event
Helen shards are tied to the milestone tiers and event missions available while Beauty and the Beast is active.
- Reach Fixed Milestones: Prioritize static point thresholds in the event menu. Fixed milestones provide a consistent shard yield that does not depend on competing with other players on your server.
- Complete Event Missions: Focus daily activity on event-specific tasks that reward Helen shards rather than spending event energy on standard daily routines.
- Use Stockpiled Items: Spend accumulated stamina items and event currency as soon as the event opens. Early milestone tiers offer the highest return on spent resources.
Strategy for Reaching 100 Shards
Because event progress runs on a timed rotation, managing your item reserves dictates whether you can reach the full unlock requirement.
- Evaluate Resources on Day 1: Calculate your maximum potential point total at the start of the event. If your stored items and daily free attempts cannot yield 100 shards before the timer expires, hold your resources for the next rotation.
- Prioritize Milestones Over Leaderboards: Avoid spending valuable items solely to climb competitive event rankings. Pursue leaderboard placements only if the guaranteed ranking reward provides the exact number of remaining shards you need to hit 100.
- Avoid Fragmented Spending: Failing to hit the 100-shard goal before the event ends can cause lost progress when the event resets. Commit your stockpile only when you have enough resources to guarantee the complete unlock in a single event run.

I wish I had read this before upgrading the wrong thing.
This saved me time in the early game.
Nice guide. I am checking the other Game of Sultans articles next.
