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:

Hero wasn’t in beta?
I think it’d be Fizzicoli 2.0

Also, the only difference I see is much worse DI and healing boosted by minor value .
Another useless costume added just for stats…

The logic in making the costumes nearly identical to the original card. ?!?

I believe it accomplishes two things.

1 it means they can “save” ideas for new heroes
2 less special skill creep

Any idea what Hulda’s Costume alternate name is so I can update the wiki? Guessing Nurse of the Moles or something to that effect.

Her alternate name is “Head Nurse”

Hmmm, buffed DI a bit, and nothing else…
I think base will still be more often used than costume

11

Thanks a bunch. Wiki updated!

I used to call a woman i dated head nurse… But probably not for the reason most people would assume…

10% boosted health can be consequential. Especially after the first charge and everyone is fully healthy.

I did pull hulda today I’m happy… Though does hulda nudge her way in front of narcisa…

And… The invite l obvious question… Who does she pair well with? I’m my mind i see going with a team of…

C. Hulda, leadria, pengi, fortuna… And at that point… Not sure who the 5th beatle will be.

I’m happy with this… But honestly… When she released originally… I would have been bouncing off the walls with joy… Because of age and how long it takes to level a hero… I’m just pretty pleased.

Hulda C is great…

I wanted her, instead, I got Morel C which is the opposite of great.

With current stats and increased minion HP her minions are going to be beefy, 15% heal each turn as well is great, along with mana gen and defense up…

I have the 5* troop for paladin in dark… so her minions are going to be ridiculous. Just need to avoid ogima and co… and ridiculously terrible boards…

16

Leafwhisk… Thanks the fifth beatle

Might not win… But it would be fun to have 50% defense up, 700x3 minions attack down for the defense and an extra 750ish defense from leaf whisk. Just feels like it would nullify all attackers.

17

I’ll likely have hulda @ 4.80 today. I paired her with a 5* legendary troop… the minions were around 800… so I’m thinking when I’m done and she is at 4.85 (with a possible 2x lb), they will be over 1000… and minions don’t go over 1000… so there’s that to consider…

So… 5* legendary troop and 4.84 minions cap out at 1000. But it isn’t all bad.

This applies with orig hulda, i think red hood, and leadria… But to a much lessor extent.

Leadria only heals once regardless of how many minions there are… But hulda and costume heals per minion and when she initially goes off.

So this is a nice little synergy.

Red Hood’s minions also heal per minion so if you have all 3 up you get 3 heals per turn - the minions will also protect your mana gains from mana cuts and steals, even if they are squishy by today’s standards.
