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.

If you’d like more extensive advice on sorting out your particular roster, I recommend creating a new thread in Gameplay Help & Tactics, and posting screenshots of your hero roster, along with your questions.

Just a notice, is this the first hero with an actual handgun? (sure Anne has a cannon, but she is a figurehead of a pirate ship so kinda makes sense)
Gun powder is officially invented in this game!
How long until we see an Ak-47?

We have Captain Kestrel
