Don’t get too attached

Details from Beta, especially brand-new Beta content, don’t tend to be very reliable for actual release.

It’s incredibly common that features are changed during Beta testing, or sometimes even after testing but before release. That is, after all, the purpose of Beta testing.

So I wouldn’t get too attached to any of this — it’s not unheard of for entire portions of features to be removed or reworked, or for radical changes to functionality to be made.

Love to hear that new 3* and 4* heroes are planned, too :slightly_smiling_face:

How does reduce max health special work with the titans?

Is it just me or do the special skills here look like appropriately scaled copies of already released 4 and 5 star heroes?

Shadereave’s special should most probably be spelled Draugr’s blessing? And the dead heroes are reborn as a Draugr.

Fixed, thanks!

I didn’t type these up, I’ll go through them later today to verify them against Beta.

OMG! Almur is a must have for those not having Evelyn (and maybe also for those who do)! He’s green Jackal essentially.

Gullinbursti also seems nifty, and will be useful against all those Alfrike, Fura and Almur bosses. Slow or not, I don’t care. Also his special has funny name.

Almur hitting 3 with a very fast Mana, Wow… Proteus take of that crown!

That’s alot of 4* heroes making the odds on pulling Mist slimmer. I’m still looking for her.

A 4 star gravemaker evelyn alfrike?

OMG.

As the Draugr is Norway’s national toilet spirit (I’m not kidding) I thought it best to mention that his name was misspelled. Thanks, as always, for the great info, looking forward to these very interesting new heroes!

More 3* and 4* heroes are always welcome. Have to say slow 4* heroes are not particularly interesting for me, Baby Evelyn is definitely going to be chased by all. Very fast elemental def down and hit 3 is extremely valuable.
Still couldn’t figure out how effective is the “max health down” going to be.
Also the stack mechanic is somehow seem irrelevant in current meta. I was excited for Mireweave, but so far can not find a use for her.

Wooow… Almur! :+1: :+1: :+1: :+1: :+1: :+1: :+1:
I do not have Evelyn, and this is very very good… very fast and stat is not too squisyh for Epic, very great,… I hope there will be another Epic for blue instead Rare Nordri, but at least… very very good… :+1: :+1: :+1: :sparkles: :sparkles: :sparkles:
I will split my emblems Ursena to Almur if I can get this!

Grevle is also great for another tank candidate in rare turney. :+1:

Barring changes, I agree with everyone posting so far - Almur is clearly the superstar of these additions. Whether you want to compare her to Jackal, Gravemaker, Evelyn, or Alfrike, one thing that hasn’t yet been mentioned is that they are a SORCERER.

Accessible, excellent Sorcerers are rare, so they will be a wonderful candidate for emblems (in contrast, adding them as a Wizard, which is an extremely crowded class, would lessen their value (though it would still be very high)).

Almur clearly being the most desirable out of this bunch of new editions , even more so than Frigg with her current nerfing

It must be getting tough to be innovative with special skills, so many repeated skills here and there…

17

Why are there names so hard to pronounce. That’s my own worry… :grin:

Although some of the mechanics have been seen on the 5*, this opens the new mechanics to the broader range of players and gives some really cool (powerful!!) new specials to all of us!

I know that they may (probably will) change before release but the basics will not and that is fantastic.

Safe to assume this is for the month of May at the earliest so plenty of time to dream about which S3 hero will join.

April Valhalla will be like April Costume portal, a skip in anticipation of next month.

These look amazing. Serious question: is Gullenbursti better than Heimdall?

Another 4* Holy healer, but slow. I really want this hero, I think he will be useful in almost any situation.
We need to compare it to Lady Wool, but for me Lady Wool is way better on offence, and this boar is good on def (4* Tourneys and new players).

Way better that anyone in 4* non-healers, I think. I really want him now!
Another relatively easily accessible elemental defence debuffer. Very good)

WTF? Slow BT-Melia hybrid with cleanse. Maybe useful on titan, but I am uncertain.

Maybe useful. Do not used -Heal heroes before, cannot judge.

Gato is better for me. But for events can be useful (But I would rather have Gato + 2x Chick alongside Nordri and Gunnar)

Strange striker. I think he will be useless (only if as tank in 3* tourneys, but I would rather use C.Tyrum for that role).

Best 3* healer ever. Want him.

Innate ranger buff. May be nice for 3* events to replace those Banes.

Do not think than he is useful. If you have a lot of reds even on 3/2 off-color, you will certainly win.
