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.

Definitely makes it easier for me to build a defence team. My go-to healer+cleanser is currently non-costumed Ariel, but I also would prefer to have Tinsel or Guardian Hippo on my team as well, and with both being blue it’s hard to find positions for them if I bring Ariel. He’s basically costumed Ariel as purple, but with defence buff instead of mana gain, but then again he gets a mana boost for himself from his costumes and the S1 super talent is nothing to scoff at.
Just pulled him today. Extremely happy because of the over heal AND the defense up. I typically bring 2 healers when raiding and would never bring Costume Rigard with Boldtusk because their attack up didn’t work together. This is now ideal for me!!
Sorry, I haven’t leveled too many secondary costumes yet - if I want to LB1 the C2 costume, do I have to level all 3 versions to 4-75 (LB1) to get the full C2 costume bonus?
for each costume that you level, in the case of multiple costumes, the stats will go up. In the case of LB you need to LB the original version first before LB any of the costume and the same apply with the stats, each LB version will increase the stats
Thank you @egeovannyam . So you LB the original card and it increases stats (and allows you to LB the costumes). If I LB C2 it increases the stats again. And if I go ahead and LB C1, it will also increase the C2 stats again?
LBing the first costume won’t do anything to the C2 stats. I have Li Xiu’s 2nd costume double LB. The original is at 4-75 (first level of the double LB, not the last one of the first LB), the 2nd costume is at 4-80 and the first costume is at 4-70 and she gets the maximum benefits of the costumes even without the first LB on the first costume. If you only want to LB Rigard once and use his 2nd costume, LB the original,don’t give that base form any feeders, leave the first costume at 4-70 and focus on the 2nd costume.
Thanks very much @Liam_K@anon73591153 that’s exactly what I was wondering. I suppose the Cx2 bonus icon should appear too when you’ve hit that full bonus point. Like your 4-54 one still shows the C1 bonus mask.
Yes. C2 Rigard is more versatile with Def up, cleanse and boost, it can be use for war defence/attack and even events and tourney too. C1 is more practical for Titans as it provides att up.
