To upgrade your commanders beyond basic leveling in Kingshot, access the Hero Special Training Barracks from your city view, select an eligible hero who meets the minimum level prerequisite, and assign them to a training regimen. Enrolling a hero grants permanent multipliers to their base attack, defense, and health pools, but it locks that hero out of active combat and rally participation until the regimen completes.
How Hero Special Training Works
The Hero Special Training Barracks improves base performance metrics rather than simply granting standard hero experience points. When assigning a commander to train, you choose an intensity tier that determines both the session duration and the scale of the stat boost.
- Prerequisites: Heroes must reach specific minimum level thresholds before becoming eligible for barracks regimens.
- Permanent Multipliers: Completed training grants lasting bonuses to attack, defense, and health, helping commanders scale past standard gear and talent caps.
- Intensity Tier Unlocks: Reaching account progression milestones unlocks higher-efficiency training regimens that yield greater returns per session.
Managing Lockouts and Resource Costs
The main trade-off of the Hero Special Training Barracks is temporary hero unavailability. While a hero is actively training, you cannot deploy them in rallies, defense setups, or active combat events. High-tier training also consumes training scrolls or facility currency.
Use these management steps to avoid combat disruptions and wasted resources:
- Prioritize Primary Squads: Spend your training scrolls and currency on your main rally commanders and core defensive heroes before investing in secondary roster units.
- Schedule for Offline Downtime: Start longer training regimens right before logging off or during peace periods when no alliance events, Castle Battles, or Kingdom vs. Kingdom (KvK) skirmishes are scheduled.
- Minimize Idle Time: Check the facility interface upon logging in to claim finished stat increases and assign the next hero immediately.
