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

• https://forum.smallgiantgames.com/t/what-exactly-is-a-gacha-read-before-posting-things-about-unfair-pulls/29490?u=playforfun

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.

I loved the original, very much but…

Is she worth it?

[Jack.O.Kent]

[MrFugov]

Definitely worth it. She compares well to costume Hathor. This costume gives just enough boost to make her a top level heal and support hero.

[Jack.O.Kent]

I stuck with original Cleric path because fortunately there isn’t a lot of difference.

[Violent.Wounds]

Look who decided to pop into my roster!

A healer immune to insanity… she’ll be super useful for Ancient Terror wars!

Question to those who have her… What are your thoughts on her original (Cleric) vs costume (Sorcerer) version.

My dilemma is this - while the cleric class is definitely superior (especially for a healer) and has slightly better defense/health, however her costume has a 4 turn ailment immunity (original gives only 3 turns of immunity) and higher boosted health from 2nd cast onwards… plus being a sorcerer, she benefits from 4% mana boost from the 20th emblem node.

Would love to see who everyone thinks is the better version!

• Original (Cleric)
• Costume (Sorcerer)

Edit: decided to go with the costume version for the 4 turn immunity…3 turns during gameplay seems just too short! Closing the poll
