Morphology

heroics = heroic (semi-transparent) = hero + ic + s

Formally 'heroic' + '-s', but the gaming sense (label for high-difficulty content) is specialized jargon and not a literal plural of actions.

Etymology

Heroics comes from heroic, which means 'relating to heroes' and was used to mark stronger or more special acts. So in gaming, heroics are the harder, high-reward missions or dungeons made for more skilled players.
