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.

• Deals 220% damage to the target and nearby enemies.
• The target and nearby enemies receive 183 Burn damage over 3 turns. The caster abosrbs 30% of the dealt Burn damage as health

@PlayForFun

• Deals 240% damage to all enemies.
• All enemies receive 205 Water damage over 5 turns.The caster absorbs 25% of dealt Water damage as health.

One is slow, other is fast. One is 4☆, other is 5☆.

Very similar, and highlights the weakness of Klaern

[Tidyup]

This is what klaern should have been in the first place

[2puttshaqur]

Fire klearn… Gonna pass entirely on levelling either of her costumes.

[Fishy]

I’m torn on whether to emblem her for the new costume. I use kelie’s first costume to do fast damage to all while ignoring all the counterattack heroes. Her stats got a nice boost! Which costume do people think is better?

[Quiet]

Can you show the stats for the 2nd costume of what she looks now, ignoring the emblem pathing?

404 to all on fast seems awesome though, and troops will make that go even higher!

[Fishy]

Here she is without limit break. I’ll limit break her tomorrow for a more fair comparison.

It’ll be worth it to get opinions since I might not be thinking of all her uses.

[Quiet]

Compared to Scarlett, she is now superior in every way. Scarlett deals 215% to target and minor to nearby, while Kelile 2nd costume 220% to target and nearby. Their attack stat will propably look very similar too, and Kelile will be much more sturdy. I think she will be a new powerhouse for red 4* event teams.

[Fishy]

Here’s her new costume. She’s still using the attack path from her other costume so she’s a mix of everything that leans towards health

[Quiet]

Okay, I take back my words in other thread where I said her stats look bad (unemblemed and un-limit broken), those are insane for 4* hero I kinda like the way she looks with that emblem pathing.

Thanks for sharing!

& please let us have more 2nd costumes for 4* heroes if their stats look like that, and with S1 family bonuses + superior talents, things gonna get interesting…

[2puttshaqur]

I just want a bump to my rigard tibirtus and bold tusk. I don’t expect much from the others.

[Rduke77]

Jeez, that’s better than many 5* heroes! I might level one now (never have).

[The_Seeker]

I’ve been using her a lot fully emblemed and limit broken (the uncostumed version) because I did not have hard hitters for Fire (except for Colen who was dying too easily). She helped me win many fights especially with Black Knight’s attack buff. I am now maxing her and test her more.

[Tamika]

Been playing around with costume two max attacked emblem limit broken. She is working better than my max emblem tahir.

[Gururch]

So which version do ppl prefer? Original, sorceress, or shaman?

I’m leaning to sorceress but original with the costume bonus looks solid too

[2puttshaqur]

I have matilda now… I think kelile might get the bump up so i can pair her with… But… I never liked the first one…

[ASHrat]

Can you share a pic of the emblem path you took for these stats? Thanks!

[Cheds]

She’s whooped the snot out of me twice in this tournament. The mana delay has been brutal and the burn damage just slowly melting me down.

I have Matilda as well and I’ve never even kept a Kelile tbh. Next one I get I’m levelling…a whole new respect for her.

[Fishy]

It’s not intentionally balanced for this costume. It’s her max attack for her original costume. That costume has 989 attack and is part of my defense this tournament. Still managing an A in a tournament that heavily favors the offense
