Um, no. Iāve seen the secondary S1 costumes, and no they donāt. I actually keep track of these things. Including everything in beta, nothing gets you over 5300.

@PlayForFun , so the stages are a kind of Raid in which you face two (or 3) teams in a same match
If you donāt get a good board it can be difficult
The oppoentās skills are tuned down a bit. (Less damage, less healing, less everything else) so it is easier than raiding against the same set of heroes.

With emblems and limit break Vivica with double costume has 1037 TP
(I am actually seeing a picture of this in Beta forum).
5 Vivicas (but other S1 heroes has similar TP with 2 costumes) = 5185 TP
Based on your math troops worth 350 TP.
So total team TP for 5 heroes with troops is 5535.

Please tell your alliance mates that if they pull heavy at 400, every new portal in the future will be at 400. Restraintā¦ Is not that the people of e&p do wellā¦ But we need to show that we will not tolerate the change to the in game economy.

Ugh, can we not just remove the classic heroās already. This is a good chance to start weening them out!ā¦ I thought the challenge festivals and Black Friday/Solstice portals weāre going to set in motion them being removed but doesnāt seem theyāre going anywhere for now.

Iāll take an s1 5* as long as they are pulled from a different bucket than the event 5*. Just because they are similar in stats doesnāt mean that i sacrificed a good event hero for a s1 5*. And just because they are unlikely to be pulled doesnāt meanā¦ If i didnāt pull magniā¦ I would have gotten ludwigā¦ Nopeā¦ Just means there was a 99% chance of not getting other stuff.
The big question is how long before they nerf the monster hunters after release?
Tbh they probably will be buffed after release. % chance to get them is too low to nerf them.

I know Iām missing something because I donāt understand statistics very well but the odds are the best in the game after the challenge portal. Iām seeing a 1.6% for featured heroes. Now I understand there are 6 featured which waters that down a bit. The challenge portal
Is 1.5% odd with only 3 featured.
Aside from the gem increase, can someone explain why the odds are the worst in the game? Anecdotally, any time Iāve pulled in a 1% portal, magic and ninja for example. You could see/feel the drop rates are low. Iāve done around 700 pulls total in ninja, I have 8 ninjas. The odds are right on, but brutal. When I pull in the challenge portal I have gotten every hero I wanted from n a reletively moderate amount of pulls.
So just seeing that 1.6% tells me featured heroes will be popping up like daisies. We will know in a month but my prediction is that portal is going to dump heroes. Monster heroes, that Iām not sure of, but the featured heroes will be popping hard imho. Cheers all!
1.5% for 3 featured => 0.5% for any āspecificā featured hero
Look at the listed odds for Covenant, as listed by @PlayForFun
Unless you want the old HOTM, the odds are 0.27% for each of the other 3.

Thanks for that, I knew the other legendaries watered things down just didnāt know how to quantify it. I personally think the challenge festival portal has the best odds, do you know off hand how that looks in comparison? Or could you lead me to a link? Appreciate it!

CF2 will have 3 featured heroes @1% odds.
Each āspecificā featured hero = 0.33%
Slightly better odds if you are okay with an incremental 0.06% improvement.
The link for you.

It seems the portal is now a bit better:
- Some (but not all new rare and epic Heroes are now added to the portal)
- The Season 1 hero chance seems to be dropped from about 60% to 25% (I tried to do a quick headcount, and there are 81 special heroes and only 27 Season 1 heroes in the portal)
- New featured heroes (Including Garnet)
The gem cost is still the same.
The chest is now changed.
I will add more information on Tuesday to the OP after I collected more information.

Disregard it is just by head count.
If I wieght it with the chances, then the Season 1 heroes chances are only reduced a bit.
I have updated the OP with the most recent hero list, and appearance rate analysis.

Itās still a free coin only portal, to me. They can reduce the poll and the chances however they please, but 400 gems for even the slightest chance to get a Graymane is insulting.

And now Greymane is available as an optionā¦
