looks like the increase in crude petroleum prices has affected the economy in this game.

@PlayForFun Since this portal is 400 gems per single summon, will the other portals in the game currently increase as well or stay the same? Also, will future summon portals that will be new, be 400 gems as well?
For 400 gems do they atleast give costumes dor heroes that have them? If not I donāt see myself pulling much from this. That is the main reason I stayed away from black friday and solstice portals.

More new heroes, more over powered than the last. Great. I guess thats why the QoL stuff keeps getting kicked to the curb. More $$$ though.
No doubt about it now, Fonzie is warming up the jetski.

I dot think that they will rise other portalās gem cost.
As we have several portals with 350 gems / pull, and the 300 gem cost portals are still in the game without any change.
@ffphier costumes are not included in the portal

More bad news. No costumes.
If costumes were included @400 gems per summon, that makes it a bit more palatable.

And why? Because they added random old heroes? Iām supposed to pay 33% more because I have a shot at Zeline or Misandra? Iāll pass, thank you very much.

I can see the existing portals and the new ārelatedā ones (new towers, seasons, challenge events, etc.) keeping the same pricing, but the brand new events costing 400 gems per summon from now on.
Otherwise, I donāt understand why this specific portal would be more expensive than all the other ones. It isnāt particularly appealing. There are good heroes, but the odds arenāt any better.

It can be 400 for any new portal, but I think they will not touch the existing ones.

Itās the first game with inflation for me. An additional 33.3% per summon, for a portal with ONLY 2 New Entrants, amidst a sea of 74.
If costumes were included, if available, charging 400 gems would not be surprising.
Guess this new price of 400 gems will apply to Styx, CF2 and Monster Island.

Actually Styx was 300 gems as last seen in Beta:

Meaning 400 gems for new beta portals after this ? Monster Island and others to come.
Thank goodness Styx was listed as 300 gems.

We will see what will be the gem cost later in any new events.

So 400$ to do 100 summons (assuming one by one and not buying any deals)ā¦ wow. Just crazy. Theyāll probably see if spending drops or if it is according to expectation. If the latter, no doubt all future portals will be this price too (or even higher). Iād recommend nobody does summonsā¦ but whales will whale.
And itās funny how they can keep releasing new heroes non-stop but thereās no time to make 15 and 16-star titans, meaning alliances still have to police hits and cap damage. The excuse is itās ātoo hard to balance with lootā or something like that. But plenty of time to balance new heroesā¦

In their defense, it doesnāt seem like they spend too much time balancing new heroes, either. Just buff/nerf them after the fact.

that would be buff new heroes and then nerf them after they will no longer appear as a feature in a portal

Yeah you are right. I was thinking that as I wrote it but didnāt want to update it to make the sentence too long. But it should have read āBut plenty of time to release new heroes (maybe because they arenāt balanced wellā¦)ā or something

Iām already in the mood for these new heroes, just like with every new hero in the last year. Aka i just forgot their names and specials as soon as i was done reading them. I will never pull them and probably never face them. My only two cents about them are:
- the 5* Franz should be another colour;
- i would like to remind everyone how the staff opened the last balance update thread. I quote: āThis year, weāve been rather conservative with the power levels of new Family Bonuses and certain Family-specific Passives.ā So much conservative that these passives are, in some cases, stronger and more useful than the special itself. Sentences aged not so well.
