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.

Beta Updates

16 October, 2020

Balance updates to Marjana, Leonidas, Wu Kong, Kelile, Sabina, Grimm, Kailani & Jahangir.

---

Release Date??

It is NOT known when these costumes will be available in the live game.

My PERSONAL guess is that we will most likely only see them in the December 2020 Costume Portal, however it could also be November.

Reasons:

1. beta currently has the Christmas theme to it so I expect to see testing of Christmas heroes & event in this beta version. And the Christmas Update is not likely to be until just before the christmas event starting.

2. the previewed mythic titans were slated by staff to be out in 2020 and we haven’t seen them yet in beta. Usually “new content” goes through several Beta Testing cycles and between it, the new christmas heroes, new costumes & the new Christmas Quest I can’t see us having enough time between now and the November Portal.

• Costumes... Whats the Point? Which is Better?

[Guvnor]

Some of my initial thoughts just from typing the hero data up. Note I am really only commenting on heroes that seem broken / terrible right from the outset… (posted to beta forum as feedback):

Click for Khagan

@Guvnor

Initially I objected to the sheer damage % AND the buffs when you compare to other “snipers”

BUT I think that they are acceptable on Khagan given his slow mana speed compared to the “fast” mana of Lianna or Sartana.

In saying that, I think that due to this slow mana speed, khagan isn’t ideal as a sniper… maybe rework his costume as a Red Healer? There isn’t a full-team red healer 5* hero yet so he could be a great addition… Maybe similar to Ariel with a mana boost, healing & say a dispell of the enemy?

So Suggestion:

• Completel re-work Costume Khagan
• Remove damage & buffs as they currently are
• Add “Heals all allies for 42% HP”
• Add “Dispells buffs from all enemies”
• Add “All allies get +15% (or 24%) mana generation for 3 turns”

Click for Obakan

@Guvnor

Obakan is widely regarded as a really terrible hero currently with his normal version.

This costume doesn’t do anything to improve that perception… I mean the damage is decent IF he had a decent second buff/ effect… but unfortuntely 60% counterattack for caster and nearby is effectively negligible…

Suggestion:

• Dial the counter attack % up…
  or
• Replace it with an entierly different ability. Maybe Status Ailment Immunity?

---

Click for Sabina

@Guvnor

I really love this secondary abilty and would love to see it on some more heroes!

Agree with @Ferke tho, the Heal Over Time should be 609 over 3 turns… That way she is in line with Rigard and Melendor who are BOTH the same mana speed as Sabina…

There really is no reason why Sabina should have a worse Heal Over Time.

Suggestion:

• Increase Heal Over Time from 459 → 609. Keep duration at 3 turns.

Click for Kelile

@Guvnor

Is anyone getting flashbacks to JF version 1…???

Pretty sure that Kelile costume needs to be toned back a bit…

She’s a 4* hero… there is NO way she should be dealing more DoT out than a 5* HotM at the same speed…

Click for Cyprian

@Guvnor

I hated this skill when it was introduced for Boril and I still hate it now…

60% counterattack is just worthless… not even worth being there…

Mathematically:
Normal Cyprian = 125% counter for 3 allies = 375% when summed together.
Costume Cyprian = 60% counter for UP TO 5 allies = 300% when summed together…

So is a downgrade…

And as I said, 60% damage is pointless…

Suggestion to increase it to 100% for all allies… and do the same for C-Boril too plez.

---

Click for Kailani

@Guvnor

Is there any reason why Kailani is “Caster and Nearby”??

Her opposing hero (Gunnar) is “All enemies” or “All allies” depending on which version… AND normal Kailani is “All allies”…

I don’t particularly care that she does attack buff seeing as no 3* yellow hero currently does that.

I REALLY think tho that she needs to be “all allies”… Especially given her speed (SLOW) and that Both versions of Gunnar and the original version of Kailani are “all enemies/allies”… This costume version is rather terrible in comparison…

Also extend the duration?? Ulmer is slow mana speed and does attack buff for 6 turns (to all allies I might add)… Why is Kailani only 4 turns on both her effects? Particularly when normal kailani does damage share for 6 turns…

So in summary:

1. Extend to “all allies”
2. extend both effects to “6 turns” not "4 turns’.

Click for Dawa

@Guvnor

I was really really hoping you would make Costume Dawa OP As ■■■■ to make up for all the ■■■■ that gets slung at her allll the time…

Unfortunately Costume Dawa is just a crappier version of Bjorn.

Costume Dawa: 527 attack with 175% for target & 175% for random other enemy – AVERAGE speed
Bjorn: 453 attack with 200% for target and 350% for random other enemy – AVERAGE speed.

So the initial damage is very similar (due to C-Dawa having a higher attack stat)… however the second strike for C-Dawa is just ■■■■ compared to Bjorn.

Suggestion:

• Increase C-Dawa second strike up to 300% from 175%. This will be of the same damage amount as Bjorn currently does…

IDEALLY I would love to see C-Dawa just overclocked AF… So I’d love for her to be a mini version of Misandra…

• Increase Direct damage to 250%
• replace “strikes random different enemy” with “Has chance to bounce to another enemy” like Misandra does.

[ThePirateKing]

My first reaction

[Guvnor]

Also @BarryWuzHere & @Cruzcampo I regret to inform you that it is NOT a French Maid Justice outfit… She does look sick AF but not a french Maind.

[Sorvina]

I love this thread, I was waiting for it! Great news! Saving my keys for new costumes!

[Mallix]

Hahaha for realzzz…

[Lexxtarc]

I loved the followings costumes:

Marjana and Leonidas. Finally something good against titans.

Epics:

Chao.
Hes like a mini Onatel now

Gormek
I was waiting for a c.tibs version. I think this version is not that bad.

Sceptical but welcomed costumes because only the bonus:

Colen
Sabina
Kelile
Grimm
Scarlett

And wu kong… could be OP with the status aliment protection but idk he has drawbacks too

[Cruzcampo]

First the misleading on Tavern of Legends and now this tease. Cruzcampo is outrage!

[mogulemon]

My opinions regarding new costumes:

Obakan is still a trashy hero. Crappy costume skills. He just like unwanted 5* forever.

Wukong is super OP.

Cyprian as meh as boril costume.

Dawa well still dawa, another unwanted 3* hero

[DukeOfTaurus]

Gormek costume…hoping to get it. Still use him at +19. Also not disappointed in Khagan as he was going to replace Gormek. Not ideal, but what I have!

[Guvnor]

A note with Wu Kong’s costume.

1. All effects apply to his ALLIES.

2. Order of effect means he will give the Attack Debuff AND Negative Mana effects FIRST to all ALLIES. Before then applying the status ailment immunity.

[sleepyhead]

haha! you beat me to it - maybe I won’t do a 10-pull next Guardians, then

and Dawa could become a Yellow Bjorn… hope this sticks, then I will be vindicated for keeping my maxed Dawa on my bench!

I’ve complained before that the Yellow Vanillas have been shafted, but their costumes look VERY promising, with some really interesting effects! Really excited to see how this plays out. Justice and Leonidas look interesting too (so happy I kept both of them)…

and glad Kailani is different from costume Gunnar.

[nonareeves]

Two C. Marjana hit the enemy hard. The opponent dies.
Two C. Leonidas hit the enemy hard. The opponent dies.

[rilian]

@nonareeves

Two C. Leonidas hit the enemy hard. The opponent dies.

I have 3 Leonidas now. If I will get a costume, I can level two)

[Pike]

Dawa gets a costume !? Lucky I kept all of my Dawas!

[Luckman8]

this probably good news after upset ninja tower event…Surely aiming to get Marjana c as new Wonderwoman!!!

[Cruzcampo]

Khagan and Thorne should do more damage. Costumed Obakan intrigues me, but needs to be pushing a little more damage

[BeleCZ]

Sabina and Cyprian - c’mon, you can do better than this SG…

[DaveCozy]

Wow. Scarlett is incredible. I’ve had a ton of fun testing her, she’s easily the best red 4* if you get her costume. If not, tied with Wilbur. That’s how good I think she is.

Check out these stats taking the Rogue attack path (which automatically also follows the Ranger attack path! ) , before troops are even considered:

Scarlet+20 +CB

934, 583, 1248 (fast)

• Deals 215% damage to target and minor damage to nearby
• Target and Nearby enemies get -34% attack for 6 turns

cScarlett+20

897, 613, 1279 (fast)

• Deals 185% damage to the target and minor damage to nearby
• Target and nearby receive 162 Poison damage over 3 turns
• Caster and nearby get +30% attack for 3 turns

So basically, you get a very flexible hero when you get her costume. Use cScarlett for everything but events, since stats are much better balanced so she can stay alive longer while still contributing a very meaty attack stat to your red stack.

For challenge events Scarlett+CB will be better because 934 attack is hilariously high for a 4*.

[Lexxtarc]

@DaveCozy

Hello Dave. Could you test Kelile and Gormek? Did you find them better now?.

Im glad to have a full emblemed Scarlett. Hope to pull the costume plus another one soon
