<b>Creeping/Fighting Separately from your Hero</b>
Heroes can gain experience separately from other units in your army. For example some Footmen can be killing some Creeps across the map while your Archmage is back in town buying things at the Arcane Vault while still gaining experience. Other possibilities include using a Hero to harass an enemy town while your army is off Creeping at the same exact time.

Knowing this information, it's a newbie mistake to send your whole army somewhere, when only your Hero is needed. Now you almost always want your Hero in battle with your army, but if you just need to run back and heal or use a shop, just send your Hero. Your units can Creep during that time. As long as you are not ambushed separately from each other, it should be ok. High level players pull this off all the time. You can also use this method with flying units to harass the enemy. Flying units are sometimes better off when they are not slowed down by Heroes. Gryphon Riders could attack an enemy town while your Hero is back at town gaining experience. You can then run away when the enemy responds to the attack.

<b>Gaining Experience</b>
A Hero gains experience when he or any unit under his “command” kills an opposing unit. An opposing unit is defined as any unit that is hostile to the player. This includes enemy player units as well as aggressive NPC creatures on the game map.

Kills made when no Hero is nearby result in your Heroes' receiving experience. In team games, even your allies will get a share of that experience. If one Hero is nearby, but another is not, only the nearby Hero gains experience. This is to encourage the use of air mobility in harassing an opponent.

If two Heroes are both commanding a unit that makes a kill, then the experience received from the kill will be split evenly between the two Heroes.
