Stargazing Room Droprates / Probabilities
Rewards | Drop rates |
Hero | 2% Note: it’s proven that there is a pity timer, so you can’t spend more than 32,500 diamonds or 65 cards by using single pulls (or 35,000 diamonds or 70 cards by using 10x pulls) without getting a single copy. |

Stargazing Priority Guide
Looking for the best heroes to stargazer in AFK Arena? This quick guide will show you how to do it properly!
This is the best place to ascend Celestial and Hypogean heroes. Do NOT wishlist Lightbearers, Maulers, Wilders or Graveborns on Stargazing.
Extremely high priority
These are the highest priorities and the most impactiful investments you can make on Stargazing. Focus on them before moving to the next tier.
Elite+ Elijah & Lailah (2 copies): the Twins are great for Guild Hunt, Twisted Realm, Abyssal Expedition and Hunting Fields even at Elite ascension. You need Elite+ ascension to use heroes on Abyssal Expedition and Hunting Fields, so you need 2 copies of them.
Elite+ Mortas (2 copies): he is great for Guild Hunt, Twisted Realm, Campaign, Towers, PvP, Abyssal Expedition and Hunting Fields even at Elite ascension. You need Elite+ ascension to use heroes on Abyssal Expedition and Hunting Fields, so you need 2 copies of him.
Elite Mehira (1 copy): she is amazing for Campaign and Towers even at Elite ascension. This is a very small and very impactiful investment. She has a good survivability and her ultimate is one of the strongest for PvE.
Ascended Lucretia (14 copies): she is one of the strongest carries in the game and certainly the first celepogean you should have at Ascended ascension. She can be useful on all game modes, but her strongest game mode is PvE (campaign/towers).
Very high priority
After finishing the list above, these are the heroes you should get next:
Ascended Alna (14 copies): she is essential to push Campaign at high level deficits and she is also essential to build some strong comps on PvP. Optional: 1 star on Alna can be a good investment to upgrade her haste by engraving her. Engraving her is a very late game investment though, so you can just ascend her with 0 stars and get star later.
1 star on Lucretia (+2 copies, 16 copies in total): engraving her is a huge buff to her damage and survivability, so you need 1 star on her. Notes: you will probably need more stars on her when you reach chapter 45. She struggles on very late game, so you will probably want more stars or more engraving on her to keep using her at very high level deficits on Campaign.
1 star on Haelus (16 copies): he is one of the most important supports in the game and he really needs his engraving level 60. He is useful on all game modes.
Zolrath (14 copies): at this point, you are probably getting copies of him on Challenger store, but Zolrath is such an important hero that getting some extra copies on him on Starging to ascend him even faster is worth it. It is also important to get a star to engrave him, but it is better to do that on Challenger store. Athalia, Ezizh, Orthros and Flora will not be mentioned on this guide because you should ascend them using only Challenger coins.
Mythic Khazard (8 copies): he is very important for PvE and it can also be useful in some Cursed Realm rounds. His signature level 30 is everything you need, so you don’t him higher than mythic ascension.
High priority
After finishing the list above, these are the heroes you should get next:
Ascended Elijah & Lailah (+12 copies, 14 copies in total): Elite Twins is useful, but they die very easily. Ascending them will improve their survivability a lot. Optional: 1 star on Twins is great to upgrade their haste by engraving them.
Mythic Mortas (+6 copies, 8 copies in total): he works pretty fine at Elite ascension, but he has a very strong level 20 signature. He doesn’t need to be higher than mythic, so don’t worry about that.
1 star on Veithael (16 copies): he is a very relevant celepogean on literally all game modes, but his strongest game mode is Cursed Realm. Getting one star on him is important because his level 30 engraving is pretty strong.
1 star on Canisa & Ruke (16 copies): they’re also very relevant on all game modes. They can be very useful even without any engraving, but their level 60 engraving is a nice upgrade to make them even more powerful.
Medium priority
Morael, Talene and Mehira are interchangeable with each other on the list below. It depends on what you need most.
Ascended Morael (14 copies): she is a very relevant hero for Cursed Realm and she can also be very useful on Celestial tower. Optional: 1 star on Morael is great to upgrade her insight by engraving her.
Ascended Talene (14 copies): she is useful on Cursed Realm, Celestial tower and PvP. She can be a decent hero for Celestial tower at Elite ascension, but she needs to be ascended to be useful on the other game modes. Optional: 1 star on Talene is great to improve her damage, that’s particularly very important on Cursed Realm.
Mythic Mehira (+7 copies, 8 copies in total): even though she is great even at Elite ascension, you will eventually need her signature level 30. Notes: Ascended Mehira is required for some stages on very late game, it will take a long time until you really need her higher than mythic and you can use a mercenary on stages where you need a stronger Mehira.
Ascended Zaphrael (14 copies): he works even at Elite ascension for Campaign, but he needs to be ascended to be useful on PvP. Optional: 1 star on Zaphrael is great to upgrade him insight by engraving him.
Low priority
Tarnos, Framton and Audrae are interchangeable with each other on the list below. It depends on what you need most.
1 star on Tarnos (16 copies): he is very strong on PvP and Celestial tower. His star is important because his level 60 engraving is pretty useful.
1 star on Framton (16 copies): he is useful on basically all game modes. He is not a super strong hero, but he is quite useful everywhere. His star is important because his level 30 engraving is important to make him useful and his level 60 engraving is useful to make him even better.
1 star on Audrae (16 copies): she is an amazing carry for Celestial tower and she is also great on PvP. Her star is important because her level 30 and 60 engravings can make her even strong.
1 star on Olgath (16 copies): he is useful for Cursed Realm, Hypogean tower and PvP. Not as useful as the three heroes mentioned above, but he is also good.
Very low priority
At this point, you basically have already built all important celepogeans. The next three celepogeans are very niche heroes. They can be useful, but you will be fine without them.
1 star on Vyloris (16 copies): niche hero for Cursed Realm and PvP. Her level 60 engraving is very important to her, so if you’re going to ascend her, get 1 star on her.
Ascended Mezoth (14 copies): very niche hero for some PvP comps.
Ascended Titus (14 copies): slightly less strong than Mezoth on PvP, but slightly more useful than him on faction tower.
Extremely low priority
These are the worst celepogeans in the game. They are basically useless in the current meta.
Zikis: he was meta on PvP a long time ago, but he is not good anywhere right now.
Leofric: he is undoubtedly the least useful celepogean in the game.
Best Tips for Stargazing
Using Stargazing Cards
If you seriously want to put money in AFK Arena, putting your luck in Stargazing is definitely worth a try. You will eventually get the Heroes you want, Mythic gears and even 30,000 Diamonds batch.
Just remember to wait till you see the Hero you really need shows up on the prize list even when the Hero droprate is only 2%.
Using Diamonds to Stargaze
For Free-to-Play Players and New Players, it’s best to spend all of the Diamonds you have on summoning Heroes in The Noble Tavern.
The rewards in Stargazing Room seems very amazing to new players, you actually get a lot more benefits from buying 10x Summon Scrolls at the beginning.
Once you have decent knowledge regarding the game, and you maybe want to test your luck, give it a try once and you will eventually see if it actually gives you any real profit or not.
As mentioned above, it usually requires up to 20,000 Diamonds, around 70 Summon Scrolls, to pull out the selected Heroes from the Stargazing Pool. So, If you do not like gambling, getting 70
Summon Scrolls is a much safer bet because you will have the chance of getting the Heroes you want, and tons of fodders for them.
However, if you are in the late stage of the game, after chapter 27+, when you have around 20 or more ascended Heroes in your team, you will want to start stargazing.
Ascending weak heroes really only gets you 5 more levels for the resonating crystal, and while this can be useful, there aren’t many F2P players who reach their level cap anyways.
It’s better off to spend those gems trying to get Celestial/Hypogean heroes (Talene, Mehira, Twins, Khazard, etc.) than to get more fodder material. It just doesn’t make sense to do gem summons at this point of the game.
