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:

He really needs health recovery, anything that can sustain himself independently. This is the one time to be given any healing and no, he gets this…not even the health boost for 2lb. Really disappointed

Dreadful hero still. Lazy, uninspired costume, sums up $G really.

Another waste of space.

The normal one is actually better and that’s because the direct damage is higher. Who cares if his counterattack is higher because he’s gonna be half dead by the time he fires? The one silver lining is that he’s barb. Barbs have high health when +20

Artwork is amazing
