How to Get Orbs in Fire Emblem Heroes (Free & Fast)

Q: How do you get Orbs fast in Fire Emblem Heroes?

Stack the recurring monthly sources: full-clearing **Tempest Trials** (up to 42 Orbs), **Forging Bonds** (~14 Orbs), Monthly Quests (22+ Orbs) and **Squad Assault** (up to 44 Orbs per season), plus the weekly Sunday login Orb and whatever Arena awards for your tier.

Q: How many free Orbs does the Feh Pass give?

Not many — the **Feh Pass** ($9.49/month) grants up to 10 Orbs per month, which is a modest amount. Its real value comes from Resplendent hero appearances, the spark/focus charge becoming available at 40 summons on more banner types, and extra support slots, not from Orb income.

Orbs are the summoning currency in Fire Emblem Heroes. A single summon costs 5 Orbs at full price, but a full 5-orb summoning session (choosing all 5 colored orbs shown) costs 20 Orbs total — 5 for the first, then 4, 4, 4 and 3 for the rest, making the effective cost about 4 Orbs per summon when you clear a full session.

Fire Emblem Heroes has no redeemable code system — unlike many other gacha games, there are no promo codes to check for. Every Orb source below comes from actually playing the game.

Weekly & recurring

Sunday login bonus — A free login reward gives 1 Orb every Sunday.
Arena — Weekly Arena rewards grant Orbs based on your score tier. The exact amount varies by tier and is not tightly documented, but it is a real recurring source worth checking every week.

Monthly & periodic events (recurring)

**Tempest Trials** — A monthly PvE event that can reward up to 42 Orbs total across its milestones and maps.
**Forging Bonds** — A recurring story event that gives around 14 Orbs per run, roughly monthly.
**Grand Conquest** — A periodic large-scale PvP event that can reward up to 14 Orbs.
Monthly Quests — A rotating quest log that resets monthly, worth 22 or more Orbs if you complete it.
**Squad Assault** — A seasonal combat mode that can reward up to 44 Orbs per season.

One-time

My Nintendo account link — Linking your Fire Emblem Heroes account to My Nintendo grants a one-time bonus of 10 Orbs. This only counts once per account, not every month.

Paid (for context)

**Feh Pass** — A $9.49/month subscription that grants up to 10 Orbs per month, plus access to Resplendent hero appearances, a spark/focus charge at 40 summons on more banner types, and extra support unit slots. The real value is mostly in those extras rather than the Orbs themselves.
