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:

Yes, it seems to be a bug.

I actually got a bane a few days ago, so decided to keep him and max him with his toon costume. Still slowly leveling and all their specials are only 4 or 5/8 which is annoying, so wasting feeders on them.

But, I am saving my alpha aethers for Gestalt (I have 6)

I will +20 and LB1 bane now though and he can be helpful for me in events and tournaments, I hope.

Anyone have him maxed and use him?

I’m upgrading the “toon” version only because I already have Bane (with the first costume at 3.55 + 20) and I sometimes use him as a sniper during tournaments. Unfortunately, in my opinion, the new costume is very poor compared to the previous ones, because the duration of the blinding has been shortened to only two turns. And this blinding is his greatest advantage IMO.
If I had to improve this hero from scratch, I would definitely prefer Toon Gan Ju :thinking:

What is the deal with Toon Bane’s horrible special skill? It is WORSE than the original. 5% more damage but at the expense of two turns of blind plus 5% less blind to boot.

What gives? His original special skill obviously better. Why did the ever-faithful Bane get shafted by you guys? Please boost his special!
