Heroes not Level 15

In the last GW update it said

yet mine are still stuck at low ranks? Is there something i am supposed to do?

That's only for recently acquired heroes. The heroes obtained BEFORE the update stay at the same level.

thats retarded

Only Olias and Zenmai are level 15 when you aquire them. THey are the two heroes you would bring over from other lands. The wording is a little vague, but what it means is that the heroes you bring from foreign lands to Elona will be level 15. Not all heroes a foreigner will aquire will be level 15 automatically.

No, with a recent update, all Elonan heros aquired by imported characters are level 15.

Yeah I wish i hadnt rushed my best characters to elona :|

now my mesmer has lv 15 heros while my favorite ele has a level 3 koss :S
also when you get the new lev 15 heroes they still come equipped with junk starter weapons, but new slightly less crappy weps are spawned in your inventory for them.

Same, my ranger got stuck with a lvl 2 koss. Bring on the level farming <_<

seems like jin and sousuke starts at lvl 11 even after the update.

CLARIFICATION - IF you recieved ANY heroes with a character before the update, all heroes that character aquires will be the crappy low level ones.

O.O? Probably because you attain them in newbie island, and level 11 is still a decent number. Oh welL!

They are also optional heroes. You don't need to get either to progress so they begin at the same level they always have.

No they start at 15 , provided you did not aquire any heroes prior to the update.
If you went to elona and aquired koss before the update, all heroes you get will be at pre update levels with that character.

Did you guys not spot the Kamadan Xmas quests and the generous 5000 XP they offer? Very quick way to level up heroes.

or just get to the desolation and worm farm them up nice and quickly

Um, by the time you make it to the Desolation they should already be leveled.

because people love using lvl3 Koss in Kourna and Vabbi :\

What I did for those characters: Cleared Arkjok Ward 3 times under all the blessings. that got the 4 heros I needed to use upto atleast lvl18 (three were 20, one was 18).

Remember - foreign character's can still get sunspear points on Issnur Isles & Mehtani Key's. So go kill the insect's and skale in Issnur Isle and coursair's in Mehtani Key's - you'll get double xp and the hero's will level up pretty fast. you can get these point's up to 1K points iirc.

Also, while it's still wintersday - do those quest's as the hero's will get xp from them as well, easy way to get xp for them right now.

I feel like i wasted hours getting koss and dunkoro up to level 20....

do heroes get the double experience if you take the bounty? i thought the bounty only affected those who take it (this case only players)

I ruined it for myself I guess.

I got all 7 of my foreign characters the awful low level heroes when I brought them over one by one to get the hat, at Halloween.
