More Insights & Reading

I highly recommend reading these three threads for more information and context on summoning odds:

If you’ve read them a million times before, you may consider reading them again before deciding on your budget for summoning. A little time spent deciding on how much money you want to risk on summoning goes a long way to avoiding disappointment, frustration, and regret later. :slight_smile:

Much like Khonshu (and Xnolphod) any hero that instantly grants mana is so useful. Other heroes can fire after them in the same turn. Hope I can get this mummy.

Baby xnolphod, and you have the work for it

Got him in duplicate, cause that’s how my RNG rolls :joy: At least he wasn’t holy. My purple is seriously lacking and welcomes him

I originally did not plan to do any summons at all. But I gave in today with the cheap coin deals, LOL. :laughing:

With 10 pulls, I did not get any 5* hero, but I did get Ahhotep along with four other new Dunes heroes (Ptolemy, Aqeela, Jarif, and Rekhetre).

I think I still did get lucky with these heroes, particularly Ahhotep and Ptolemy. :sunglasses:

If two enemy deafet from the attack allies get 40% mana?

It’s only the target, nearby enemies aren’t considered for the mana bonus.

In the pic you’ll see only the target is marked for the potential bonus. Subsequently I killed all the enemies the next turn and only received a mana bonus from the one enemy that was targeted.

What happens if target is killed on initial hit and not at least one turn later? Do you still get the bonus?

Never mind, I was able to test, the target has to survive the initial hit and be killed later or no bonus.

Thats kind of sucky… seems a bit tricky to invoke that mana gain in raid/war scenario.

I am levelling him though as I like the relatively high chance of dispel. Dispelling powers are always welcomed in my roster

Agree, and at avg speed I don’t think it’s too much to ask to have it apply on cast or after as stated.

I have two of him, but not done anything with him yet.
Is it worth the mats to level both?
I have lots of purple 4* heroes

Agreed. Allowing the mana gain to apply if his hit defeats the target would be a huge upgrade.

Bump, for the same question. My first copy is on the slow road up right now.

I just watched a video clip of him.
Apparently he has great synergy with the 5* purple hero Khonshu
I have both so will level them

from the wording alone, there is no indication where 2 separste targets can’t be marked by 2 ahhoteps, then be wiped out by say, killhare or some other big AOE / hit-3 heroes for an instant 40% mana. I say doesn’t hurt to keep and experiment as such

He’s not even closer to Xenophon actually actually the only thing what I mentioned is he has 60% chance to hit all enemies which is very good but the 6% mana if the enemies die is so little which it’s almost nothing. I have him and I have Xenophon and I must say Xenophon (or his name it’s so wird) like its almost impossible to say it, it’s the best card what you can get

Level up his special skill to level 8, he gives +20% mana to all allies (except himself) if the target dies. Xnolphod is a great hero to have but he isn’t as easy to get as Ahhotep. I have 2 of him that I don’t use in wars because I usually face purple tanks but they’re great in tournaments

The OP now contains the latest balance changtes.
