"The Dark Elves are invading London, with portals opening throughout the city. Without the Bifrost, options are limited, but unless we can find a way to take the fight to Svartalfheim, we will fall. In our darkest hour, we turn to Thor."

Important Notes:

Thank you for not adding unconfirmed information.

The only way to recruit Heimdall is to complete the list of Tasks.

One of the Tasks requires the defeat of an Epic Boss. This can be done by having the requirements needed to unlock the Epic Boss or by skipping the task by paying 25 Gold icon Gold.

The requirements are:
