A helper needing ascention help!

Good day fellow forum users. I love giving help to others, and now it’s my turn with hat in hand. It took 14 trys in Hero Academy 10 and I finaly got a non-season one hero! The beautiful Guinevere! I am probably the weakest in yellow and have a bounty of poison darts. I was currently planning to max Sir Roostley (He’s at about 3-30) but this throws a wrench in my plans. Below is my yellow roster, who would you recommend…Guin or the Rooster?

Maxed:
Sif +15
Joon + 15
C-Justice +20
Bai Yeong

Non-Maxed
Inari 3-70
Sir Roost 3-30
Guin 1-1
Non Costume Viv 1-1
2nd Joon 1-1

Also to note, I have 3 Gullinbusti maxed, one +20 another +14 and the last just 4-70

Thanks in advance, Cheers!

Hi, @Chadmo.

Though Guin is still a decent tank and might serve well in double or reverse double raid defense formation, however, that middle hero function in such raid defense formation is best suited to your Siff, who is usually in that post in such raid defense in the middle and upper diamond arena.

I’d still do the rooster. Mine is currently at 3/53, slowly leveling up and getting all 2* yellow feeders and above, including the trainers. He is both good in offense and defense.

My 2 cents.

I would still go with the rooster as you’re most likely defence spot for yellow is still Sif I think. Guin would be good but Roostley would be an upgrade over Justice. Guin def next up after though.

Gracias!

Justice is really only useful for Very fast wars and tournaments. The minute I get a solid Palidan I’ll strip her quicker than a drunker Tinder date!

And now you can have the paladin rooster to take them all

Good news is the only other paladin maxed is Falcon so I have over 600 emblems already in the chamber!

I think Guin is fantastic, but you seem to be set on yellow healers. I also agree Sif woud be used on D in the spot you would use Guin. SO I have to go Rooster!

I think you gave me advice on a similar topic some months ago :slight_smile: I decided to go for Roostley and I don’t regret it. It is annoying when he’s chain is interrupted, but he has the potential for a lot of damage, especially in the new double formations. Plus really good in equalizer wars

Glad it worked out seeker! I haven’t heard anything about Guin in so long I wanted to make sure.

Happy Gaming!

I dont have Guin but its been a while since i last saw her on defense, she is well past her prime and there aro so many very good purples to combat her. I have Roostley though and plan to max him (but im always short on darts) he hits very hard so i would choose him.

I can imagine Guin now depressed and calling the plastic surgeon for an appointment :smiley:

I don’t have any of them, but when I see both in defense teams, I’m more scared of Sir Roostley than Guinevere, so I’d vote for the :rooster:.

Vivica without costume is too slow (besides you have 3 Gullinbursti, whom I find better than her) and Inari needs something else to be more decent.

Roostley would help you a lot in any position, awesome stats and class with a flawed special. But never underestimate what a roostley can do on defence and even offence, his flaws ultimately do not matter that much imo.
Guin has aged badly throughout her career and her only role is on defense as a tank.
I won’t even consider raising guin until you’re certain your roster is good enough

In my honest opinion you don’t really need Guinevere when you got SIf.
I think you got her too late in your game.
So out of those in your list I would go with Rooster.
Whichever hero you choose good luck

Sir Roostley is a better option imho. Especially if you have Master Lepus and/or Killhare. I have been running him on defence together with Killhare, JF, Frigg and Krampus in a reverse formation and I am quite happy with the result as I can easily hold 2650-2700 cups over night. Plus - Justice costume or not is still underwhelming, so you have the emblems to bring him to +20.

Guinevere really is only any use at tank.

Even then she’s not really a top tier raid tank anymore so unless your alliance runs yellow tanks or you really don’t have a decent raid tank i wouldn’t max her.

Viv probably isn’t a huge upgrade on +20 Gullinbursti unless you have her costume or was going to put emblems on her so it really would be a second Joon or Roostley.

Roostley v Joon I’d say Joon but as you already have 1 maxed I’d probably plump for the chicken

I was horribly done over by a Roostley on defence the other day. On the other hand I haven’t been done over, horribly or otherwise, by a Guinevere since 2019. Mainly because there aren’t that many of them about nowadays, but then again, there’s a reason for that. If I had her I’d probably get her to 3.70 for use in lower event stages.

Viv also sits at 3.70 until such time as either her costume or a large number of darts turn up; she gets an occasional outing on dark titans. Inari - some get use out of her but definitely niche. Joon is nice but how often will you be using two? Are you ok for snipers in other elements?

Bottom line: +1 for the chicken.
