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:


:thinking: Wondering About Your Personal Situation?

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.

Here kitty. Kitty. Kitty!

tl;dr - Bastet is female :slight_smile:

Bastet, also called Bast , ancient Egyptian goddess worshiped in the form of a lioness and later a cat. The daughter of Re, the sun god, Bastet was an ancient deity whose ferocious nature was ameliorated after the domestication of the cat around 1500 bce.

I can’t believe!!! Got him in a single pull. His dodge will be very useful once he’s leveled

A purple, stronger and cute C Kadilen

She’s so good because she’s a deceiver…
You forget her claws because of her cuteness…

Would love to have her in a def team, especially combined with a fast def down and/or att up.

  • hits fast
  • hits are fairly strong
  • passive comes into play a lot because she’s fast
  • sneaky def up
  • dodge on top of that

A cute kitten that hits like a tiger

So what you’re saying is if I pair her with Morel we’re in business?

That’s overkill :slight_smile:
Morel left wing, kitten right wing…

Wish I could have 1 of them, let alone both :+1:

You could use Bastet and Costume Freya together. Fire Freya first, then Bastet. Bastet changes the 36% dodge from physical special skills to a 45% dodge of any special skill, including debuffs

She’s a Ranger, so her talent is bypass defensive buffs…

Dodge talent is for Rogues…but she’s an awesome hero nonetheless!!
