Not to be confused with the Heroes from Plants vs. Zombies Heroes.

Heroes were a game mechanic and variation of plants that were only seen in Plants vs. Zombies: Endless Edition. They acted the same as their normal counterparts (except Iron Man Nut) that could be moved by the player anywhere (except for dips in the earth at Outsmart the Fire Child and Battle of the Ox-Demon levels) at any time. Once the Hero itself was upgraded to a specific level, they would also have different special abilities and a special skill that would activate automatically once charged, similar to the anger and Plant Food system in Plants vs. Zombies: All Stars. However, the player could only use one Hero in each level, and the Hero would appear on the 5*3 square of the player's lawn immediately once the level started. When the Hero was eaten, it is absent for some time on the lawn, after which it reappears at the center of the lawn.

Each Hero could be leveled up by earning experience when being used in levels. By each time it leveled up, the plant would gain skill points (displayed by leaves) that could be used to upgrade the abilities and skill of that plant, which increased the probability and effectiveness and deals 1800 points of damage to every single non-bosses zombie present. Some skills and abilities could only be upgraded once the Hero reached a certain level.

If a Hero is moved on top of another plant, the plant will be deactivated and stop doing its job, excluding:

Upgrades[]

Silver Monk Flower trophy

To upgrade the Heroes, player can either click on the silver trophy of Monk Flower in the main menu or open up the menu when choosing seeds for a level. А menu of heroes opens, in which player can see the level of the hero, their parameters and available improvements. When the Hero is present on the lawn, it increases its experience, gradually earning a new level. When getting a new level, a wave emanates from the hero, dealing 1800 damage to all zombies on-screen, and the player receives the skill points necessary to improve one of the hero's skills.

Each hero has five skills. The first 3 can be unlocked at default, the fourth requires the hero to be at level 5 and the fifth requires the hero to be at level 10. The maximum level of the hero is 20, and the maximum number of points is 80, which is exactly enough for a full leveling of all skills. The player can pay Diamonds to instantly gain a level and for 20 Diamonds, the player can reset all skills, returning their full cost in skill points.
