:hugs: Family Bonus

Ninja Heroes have a family bonus for unique heroes of the same family.

Ninja Family
Bonus for 2 / 3 Heroes:

  • 5% / 10% chance to dodge normal attacks and Special Skills
  • 5% / 10% chance to counterattack with 60% / 90% of the damage received

The two effects have individual sequential processing. So one may not trigger while the other might.

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:

Feel free to discuss your team and roster here, and ask for advice from other Forum members.

Another ninja dealing Sobek amount of damage with half tiles. And fiends on tops, though they’re less annoying than Ekanite’s Shinobi Countering Minions. Still OP hero.

Well I really like this one :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: … please …&… thank you :kissing_heart:
Last two portals produced nothing of interest for me so I’m ready for a new project…

Good luck in the portals everyone!!!

Edit: it seems they toned the ninjas down before release … except for blue dude who got a badly needed little something more of sorts…
Really enjoying the artwork here. :slight_smile:

Great hero to pair with Sergei and Nyx with another vf hit-3 or hit-all. I’ve tested this and you can kill 3 or everyone with just 6 purple tiles (two matches).

I’ll probably team her with C Panther, for lack of 6 tile heroes.

Is it just me or does this new fiend hero makes Fortuna seem weaker?

What I think when I see those teams is: are there even that many offers for all the ascension materials and limit breaks? Or do these people just skip alchemy labs for fun?

Pls tell how you see or imagine that, thx.

Happy gaming

Not too bad, each Amethyst did fire once at the first or second charge. Luckily I have a decent raid team, otherwise that fight would of been real rough
