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:

The hero card is updated with the changes.
Polls are now usable.

When it says the effect spreads to nearby enemies…does that mean it keeps spreading turn after turn if it is not cleansed so all enemies end up having it?

Also can the spread refresh older copies?

It’s the same as any of the contagion heroes out there like Rayne, D’art, Zappa

Ok…

Can you explain how they work then please?

As long as there are heroes next to the affected, it will spread to them

I haven’t tested him in the live game yet, but when I use him in beta his stack is limited to four turns, which is an obvious limitation from his description.

In beta it was a normal attack up lasting 4 turns, not a stack. Stacks don’t have duration. Being able to buff 250% attack sound just wrong, but at this point there’s no meaning to try and find balance in new heroes.

Was lucky enough to pull this guy this morning on free pulls and am surprised he’s not getting much feedback here.
I’m generally not a fan of snipers but he’s got my full attention and will be power levelled. A solid whack, followed by massive, spreading DoT and AU stack for everyone at fast is pretty devasting imo.
I’m definitely happy with him and can’t wait to see how he destroys opponents :+1:

3 turns that spread isn’t much since it starts on 1 enemy

his bleed needs to be 4 or 5 turns or stay at 3 but starts on the target and nearby

There seems to be a bug with his stack.

Maybe due to the last minute change from status effect to stack.

It is now a stacking status effect with a duration of 4 turns .

See my bug report here:

Exactly. If Rayne gets 5 turns …

I wouldn’t mind the bleed being 3 turns. 3 turns means the bleed is more potent and thus deals more damage

Which bleeder is better, daroga or verus?

I love the change to an attack stack vs an attack up. Interesting that he and Firmin’ Richard are Opera with attack stacks.

Daroga will pair sooooo nicely with Narcisa (any ailment resetter). Can also see a case for Rayne and Daroga pairing up, will hammer taunt heroes and really hollow-out the core of the enemy.
The attack stack paired with some of the Goblins giving Att Growth will lead to some absurd hits (looking forward to seeing the posts soon).

Daroga pushed straight to the front of the line, will be a month or so before he is completed but looking forward to that time.

Just pulled him on a single pull :slight_smile:
Amazing luck for me, hope it will last for a while :pray: :grinning:

can someone test if his passive heals 5 or 20%

as fast is 5%
average 10%
and slow 20%
im wonder if is wrongly stated on card

It’s great, they just need to fix the bug so the attack stack is permanent instead of lasting only 4 turns. Might be worth waiting for this to be fixed before using mats on the guy :sweat_smile:
