Avoiding Overspending & Heartache

More Insights & Reading

I highly recommend reading these three threads for more information and context on summoning odds:

• How much should I spend?- HotM cost, and odds, analysis

• [WARNING] A Summons Experience - Chasing Guardian Panther - A Warning for Chasing Heroes

• What exactly is a Gacha? (Read before posting things about "unfair pulls")

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.

I think the biggest problem with the second costume is that it is only useful in vf wars/tourneys when attacking.

In vf defenses we already have an abundance of used greens with Mother North, Alberich, Heimdahl and Kalo.

On normal defense he is easily countered by red ailment blockers like Grazul, Vanda or Garnet, who are also all very fast, so always in time to block him.

And on normal attack his ailments just come to late and are also pretty weak.

[HarryDeB]

It’s impressive to see that 2 costumes and still not a hero anybody will go for…
Pretty hard hero to make it better, or at least a pittyfull attempt again.

@PlayForFun : copy/paste error in the Title, Horghall is Nature / Green.

[PlayForFun]

Thanks, I have fixed the title.

[anon60742279]

Poor horghall. Sounds like he’s forever cursed to be the worst legendary hero in the game. He scored that 3x. Even the costumes are bad.

This one is a mess. Not totally unusable, but not worthy.

[MrMai2000]

This is definitely the best version of groot, and I really like the artwork. I would take this Horgall costume over my Atomos

[Nightmare2048]

Gotcha.

Also have first costume from Chamber, so now I can get twice costume bonus. Base Horghall with Superior Talent is quite hard to kill lately, what with 25% HP minion that has 45% chance to spawn after taking damage that turn and Horghall’s astronomical HP. 2x costume bonus, LB, +20 can be nasty.

[nevarmaor]

Poor ole’ Horghall, no respect I tell you.

I just pulled him with second costume from HA10. Definitely worth a look.

@Rheysia

In vf defenses we already have an abundance of used greens with Mother North, Alberich, Heimdahl and Kalo.

None of which I have. I do have LotL though so not likely he’ll replace her.

[masaroozzang]

Wow. Today’s tourney (Rush Attack) was a disaster. I shouldn’t have used a taunter. 2nd Costumed Horghall’s Superior Jinx made my Costumed Black Knight an idiot. Should have used Alfrike, Miki or Hel.

Superior Jinx (special skill)

Superior Jinx (slash attack)

[Andrewbook]

Just pulled him from HA10, so I’m only going to have one costume bonus, but here’s his full 2LB stats for reference.

I do like his art, but I’m afraid that may be his best quality. He and Justice’s costume (my last HA10 new hero) will both probably get leveled.

[Spite_Girls]

I’ve taken on teams with Horghall in Rush and assumed he’d be a pushover, but everytime he fired a second or 3rd time he’d destroy me. I think he shines in Rush and is difficult to kill with his chunky defence and HP.

[JAWS1]

Has Horghall’s toon costume come out yet? If so, please send the link. Thanks in advance!

[Kvothe]

No toon costume yet for Horghall either.

[FreebiePie20]

You do not have to use him at defence.
