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:

I am trying to find single reason to use costume over regular one, but can’t find any :confused:

There is none for pvp.

I’ve done the math in beta, you deal less total damage with the costume instead of just using the normal version and unlike other hit 3/snipers you can’t use him to take out the biggest threat because you have no idea who he will hit.

So just use the normal version with costume bonus and be happy with the higher total damage and if you want to target a specific hero use another damage dealer to start with…

Only for events he’s better than the classic.
There are only 3 targets to begin with, so higher damage to 3 from the costume version beats lower damage to all.
But now with so many good new red event 4* I’m not sure if many will use someone so unreliable…

Edit: original post above (blurred) was ■■■■. They changed the numbers between last beta round and live game and I missed that completely.

For the right math look at @Macbain post here

I think your math was off that day? There are definitely some situations where Costume Sumle will outperform Sumle in standard PVP. He has a slightly higher attack stat too which will increase this.

There are 5 enemies and 0 are dead
Sumle (235 + (0 * 70)) * .80 = 188 per enemy
Costume Sumle (375 + (0 * 25)) * .85 = 318.75 per enemy

In the most basic scenario Costume Sumle will do 956.25% damage to Sumle’s 940% damage

There are 4 enemies left and 1 is dead

Sumle (235 + (1 * 70)) * .80 = 244 per enemy
Costume Sumle (375 + (1 * 25)) * .85 = 340 per enemy

In cases where Costume Sumle can hit 3 enemies (all cases except dead tank) he will do 1020% damage to 976% for Sumle

There are 3 enemies left and 2 are dead

Sumle (235 + (2 * 70)) * .80 = 300 per enemy
Costume Sumle (375 + (2 * 25)) * .85 = 361.25 per enemy

In cases where Costume Sumle can hit all 3 heroes (rare) he will do 1083.75% damage to Sumles 900%.

There are 2 enemies left and 3 are dead

Sumle (235 + (3 * 70)) * .80 = 356 per enemy
Costume Sumle (375 + (3 * 25)) * .85 = 382.5 per enemy

In any case where the enemies are side-by-side Costume Sumle will do 765% damage to Sumle’s 712%

There is 1 enemy left and 4 are dead

Sumle (235 + (4 * 70)) * .80 = 412 per enemy
Costume Sumle (375 + (4 * 25)) * .85 = 403.75 per enemy

Sumle will always outperform Costume Sumle in this situation

Original from beta

No, I’m just blind :see_no_evil:

They changed his attack % and miss rate, so now the life version seems indeed be better in most situations in life game. Thanks for checking, seems not many are interested in Sumle, or someone would have recognized it much earlier. :+1:

I will add something for my original post…

So minions don’t count as “dead enemies”? I assume so but just wanted to check.
