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.

I kinda like this one being a hotm which I haven’t ascended in like 2 years and I don’t think I ever again will

Looks like her skill was buffed a bit on release. Pretty decent HOTM.

The uncleansable bleed against blue and her element link make her a really nice Hotm imho. Damage up with passive is also a strong bonus and after 2023 the family bonus kicks in. I will push her to 3.70 if I manage to get her in time and then it‘s her or Mr. Väin :slight_smile:

Yeah, her skill was buffed a little bit. A good HOTM imo (after Roughian & Nurgib), but now I’m short of wizard emblems :sweat_smile:

I like her art, looks gorgeous. And she has a decent ability.
I’d appreciate getting her.
Have the tonics, but I’m short on wizard blems

In my mind with my poor green stack, she will perfectly fit in with Maat and Telonius. Her passive attack up is good. 150 Bleed to all per turn with Telonius poison and 50% increase to DOT will make they a good couple for me.

I wanted her badly to pair with Telonius
But damn RNG… 6 covenant, 3 magic and 10 EHT… but to no avail

Don’t forget the heal cut. That would make your dots extra effective

Amazing artwork. We need more of this style and less of the anime childish ones (e.g Matilda, Valentine’s Heroes, Beach Party Heroes).

Skill set is also nice.

This! :+1: :+1: :+1:

A lot of heroes from new events don’t belong to this game IMHO because they simply don’t look like heroes in the true sense of the term.

Yes, She will feature against teams that dont have Aramis on defense. She can be used effectively against the mad overheal meta.

Here are my thoughts on the July HOTM!

For those who couldn’t get a green knight or costume elf dude. No revive, but damage wise similar.

easier to obtain than costume 2 elkanen

Hmm, I don’t know who I would replace in my attack teams in favor of this hero. She is decent, but not the sort of monster one would need to fight the likes of Aramis, Jove or Hathor. Maybe she can shine in a mono green with Grace + Guan Yu.
