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:

The dragon snipers are so underpowered, him and that holy dragon sniper

He is the worse one of the bunch. Even the holy sniper is at least a joon clone with a 1 dispel effect

no worries, SG as $ome idea$ about how to make Dragon$ $tronger. Coming $oon for $ure. (there will be $ome amazing Green$ too)

That green healer is the better one. And there’s the other pretty average green one. This one is just plain god awful. Cleanse 1 ailment, on himself, healing reduction…on 1 target, are you kidding me? Even Sargasso has the decency to splash and give heal reduction to 3…I can’t see in any way this dragon is viable except for the beginner levels of the game
His assist is decent though, but imagine being reduced to being a dragon assist.

If it’s me, this will be how I design bonefang

  • cleanse 3 ailments from the caster
  • deal 400% damage to the target. This special skill bypasses defensive skills

And even then this is a just decent enough skill

Not at all sure of what alternatives you have. The Green Dragons feel undercooked and at least Bonefang does some damage at fast mana.

I absolutely ADORE Silva, the 3* Green healer that also gives your team a % Heal of Special Skill damage dealt.

5* the other two greens look ok. The Slow one, Zostrasz, has wrecked me already when I wasn’t able to kill it before it fired.
Marmora is an average speed healer that doesn’t put pressure on you when it is defending, cleanses just two ailments and defense vs special skills are not feeling compelling. I like the art/hippogriffy vibe :person_shrugging:, does that count for anything?

4*
Nimblewing - Hahahaha… no.
Bathos - Slow mana, interesting special but not convincing since it becomes ineffective/less effective if there is a single hero left since the real damage goes to nearby (when hitting two it is exactly like the familiar splash of full/half damage just inversing the target and nearby).
Shen Lin - Slow healer, good effects for living longer but… meh

3*
Silva - FANTASTIC little hero. Heal and gives your damage dealers a chance to heal themselves too. Saved my bacon many times and simply adore this little dragon. Does everything, a bit of cleanse and extra defense vs special skills.
Croakster - ANOTHER Slow healer in Green, has the decency to do some cleansing
Leafwind - Fast mana, dodge for friends and defense down. Sounds good, haven’t used but will max this one after Bonefang gets to 2-60 now that Silva is finished. [Edit] Just realized it is defense down to ONE, I thought it was three…mmm, maybe going ahead anyway since the other greens are so Meh

That is a 5* tier skill given to a 3* hero. While bonefang’s is a 3* tier skill given to a 5* hero. I think if bonefang was in a 3* tourney he’ll be laughed at
