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.

Her costume is quite cute with those glasses of hers if that artwork on official FB Page challenge is anything to go by.

If she’s featured I might reconsider my standby on pulls during this costume portal, but if she’s not, I will not pull, because she’s only secondary costume worth a damn for now in that portal. Also I think her first costume is better because of def down, but that double C-bonus will be nasty.

[Pr0c4mp3r]

Yes!
I’ve just managed to pull her (and C. Domitia) out of 14 pulls.
Will definitely level her 2nd costume immediately, as it’s my only 5* hero that doesn’t only heal but adds HP that can also exceed.

[Frozen]

Also got her, finally Vivica will be maxed.

[Ham.Cheese]

I’m undecided. Slow speed is a huge deficit in today’s meta. But considering I have her original already maxed, I might as well spend some resources to max her new costume. Now it’s to LB or not

[Gaia]

She has to get buffs to compete in the meta now.
need to add more skills like atk + def down -44%.
dispell + Cleanses status ailments from all allies. @Petri

[milkyjoe001]

I think the class is pretty spot on. Let’s face it how many times have we killed a fighter class only to be revived with full mana. Viv revives herself & boosts everyone’s health (including her own of course) upon resurrection & the fight continues !!! Obviously def down is better for offence but that attack down is no joke. Cud make the difference when being hit by Khufu or Sobek

[milkyjoe001]

Has anyone emblemed & LB her with focus on the 2nd costume cuz I’d luv to see what stats she’s hitting. I mean look at Isarnias attack stats WITHOUT emblems or LB !!! Crazy high !!!

[TheMountain]

That’s actually crazy, I hadn’t noticed that attack stat. Her second costume when fully emblemed the LB will be an insane hit all and defense down. Pair her with Odin and c. Sif with mana generation and 15% instant mana and teams will be hurting sooner than later.

[Stanagde]

I have og vivica. She may be slow but she is mighty. She lb to the max.
I pulled but did not get costume

[JohnandCraig]

This is not mine

[Hyakuman]

JFC. I can’t imagine the resources (and money) involved to level up a 5* to maximum, AND full emblems, AND full limit break in less than a day. I know it’s faster for costumes, but still … The mind shudders …

[Dpbb]

Some players keep trainer and food heroes in their camp, just need few hours to fully maxed her if they already had older version maxed. Btw, she had crazy high stats

[marki]

1016 power level, 1900+hp,omg

[PlayForFun]

And this is after the costume bonus is tuned down…
It was 20-30 higher in Beta

[Cheds]

I’m not at all unhappy to get her. Decided I wasn’t going to summon from my key stash but this month will be a low summon month so to get Grace I decided to drop summons.

I had Vivica on the 10th pull and Grace on the 20th so still got 25 summons to carry forward to the next portal

I’ve had Viv sat there at 4-80 for probably 2 years. Will be very nice to see her join the ranks again.

[xclucvt]

Those of us who have her and the first costume should automatically get a copy of the new costume. That would only be fair. That goes for Obakan and the others, as well.

[BuckyA]

Sorry, new here - just trying to update my last post but deleted it instead

One of the unexpected treats of the double costume is the increased custom bonuses

+15% to Attack and Defense
+20% to Health

[Jaguar18169]

Well well, look what the cat dragged in
