## New Levels and Missions

In Season 3, **StarHeroes** introduces a mission system based on Hero generations, with **Gen X** and **Gen Y** Heroes having different levelling options and benefits.

A Hero's generation depends on their level:

* **Gen X Heroes**: from level 1 to level 10
* **Gen Y Heroes**: from level 11 to level 20

## Hero Duty Web App

Within our dedicated web browser game module ([**Hero Duty Web App**](/hero-duty-web-app.md)), Hero holders will be able to undertake the following actions, **each requiring STAR**:

1. **Sending** Heroes on missions for experience points
2. **Accelerating** Hero mission time,
3. [Levelling up](/economy/heroes/levelling-up.md) Heroes that have accumulated sufficient experience.

Since missions require time for completion, each Hero can only undertake a finite number of missions daily. Consequently, a Hero's level becomes a pivotal characteristic, **determining its market value**.&#x20;

***

**Available Missions:**

* Missions vary by Hero generation.
* Completing missions grants fixed experience points and has set durations.
* Missions can be assigned as standard or shortened (shortened costs more $STAR).
* **Gen X Heroes** have 4 missions available;&#x20;
* **Gen Y Heroes** have 4 missions available, including a Mystery Mission.

***

**Mystery Mission**:

* Gen Y Heroes get a special mystery mission (one of their four) with randomized experience and Hero Points rewards, revealed only after confirmation.
