Now that there are 3 different costumes, which one is the best? Or which do you actually use? Did you max all of them?

[anon73591153]

I like the original version because:

• fighter class - superior revive
• good heal
• great attack buff

Getting to 1040 defense with just one LB is amazing.

[MarthaStewartReally]

Thanks! Mine is fully upgraded like yours, and I was unsure if it was worth working on the war feast costume or not, as I’ve had opponents who were sporting that one

[Tamika]

I did the costume as well after I got the 2nd costume for the health bonus.
