Every Hero in AFK Arena belongs to a faction. There are a grand total of seven factions, each of which has its own advantages and disadvantages against other factions.
The four basic factions are the Lightbearers, the Maulers, the Wilders, and the Graveborn. In addition, there are also the special factions of the Celestials and the Hypogeans. And, finally, there is the special yet neutral class of Dimensional Heroes.
