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:

Would love to get her. R&N can gain extra mana for 6 turns through her e link, on top of viselus’ poison heal

Very clever thinking about synergy even before hero released :slight_smile:
Tho she hits very low, not a hero can be used on defense well. I see her as “Improved Zeline”.
Actually i like Costume Ares more and you can clearly keep your R&N alive with C.Ares with boosted HP.
Anyway, im gonna pray and use my two free summons in this portal to get any of the featured heroes :smiley:

I don’t have the original Zimkitty so I can’t compare the new costume other than speculation. I think the costume looks like a nice little buff on paper but I think I’ll wait and see before making a decision…
Good luck in the portals everyone!

One of R&N’s passives gains mana whenever she heals

Priority dispel. This one would be nice to get

Not only that, max cap AOE has increased to 360%. 360% at fast, although with conditions. But in this raid scene where buffs are coming out left and right, this is easily achieved. It’s just 12 buffs for max damage.
