How Many Orbs Do You Get Per Month in Fire Emblem Heroes? (F2P)
A free-to-play Fire Emblem Heroes player earns Orbs mainly from recurring monthly events like Tempest Trials, Forging Bonds and Monthly Quests, plus the weekly Sunday login and whatever Arena pays out for your rank. The figures below focus on confirmed, recurring sources — Arena is included as a rough estimate since its exact per-tier amount is not tightly documented.
Full-price summons cost 5 Orbs, but summoning in full 5-orb sessions brings the effective cost down to about 4 Orbs per summon, so we give both the raw Orb total and the number of summons it buys.
Estimated monthly F2P breakdown
| Source | Per month |
|---|---|
| Sunday login bonus1 Orb × ~4 Sundays | ~4 |
| **Tempest Trials** | up to 42 |
| **Forging Bonds** | ~14 |
| **Grand Conquest** | up to 14 |
| Monthly Quests | 22+ |
| **Squad Assault**per season, averaged monthly | up to 44 |
| Arenaadds to the total, amount varies by tier | not precisely documented |
| Estimated F2P total | ~140 Orbs / month confirmed recurring; ~160–180 with Arena |
That is roughly ~28–36 summons / month
With Feh Pass (~$9.49): +10 Orbs / month (~2 extra summons) — its real value is in Resplendent heroes, the 40-summon spark on more banners and extra support slots, not raw Orbs
These are community estimates built from confirmed recurring sources (Tempest Trials, Forging Bonds, Grand Conquest, Monthly Quests, Squad Assault, Sunday login). Arena Orb rewards are real but their exact per-tier amount is not precisely documented, so the total with Arena is a rough estimate. The one-time My Nintendo link bonus (10 Orbs) is not included because it does not repeat monthly, and there is no redeemable-code system in this game.

How many Orbs can a F2P player get per month in Fire Emblem Heroes?
Roughly 140 Orbs per month from confirmed recurring sources alone, or around 160–180 Orbs once you add Arena rewards. This is a community estimate; the exact amount depends on how many events you clear and your Arena performance.
How many summons per month is that?
At 5 Orbs per full-price summon, ~140–180 Orbs is about 28–36 summons per month. If you summon in full 5-orb sessions, the effective cost drops to about 4 Orbs per summon, stretching your Orbs a bit further.
How close does that get you to a focus hero each banner?
It depends on your current pity and luck, plus whether you reach the 40-summon spark on New Hero banners, which guarantees a focus hero of your choice. Use the Fire Emblem Heroes pity calculator to enter your current Orbs and pulls-without-a-5★ and see your exact odds before the spark.
