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:

I have just enabled the polls.

He was a cool little hero before, now he’s even better.

I’m leaning towards focusing on the regular version. The costume can’t hit 6 tiles in rush like you can with a bard and the sorcerer class.

Good point, Fishy. I didnt look that closely yet and both versions benefit from the greatly improved stats.
