Its good heroes are a bit different, no? 
We know C. Rigard still ailment cleanser and C. Melendor still dispeller buff. They both have 3 skills. Maybe sabina need one more skill.
Buff C. Dawa too. Her total raw damage is lower than original.
Ask for all. Have 3000+ gem, which is better place to draw valhalla or costume ? fyi i have enough 3* and 4* S3 heroes, i dont have sumle and shadereave only.

If she will also have dispel and buff block, she will be Guin killer along with Sif and other yellow aliment tanks. I prefer if they will give her a dispel too.
I think costumes is better, if you are targeting 5*. If you targeting 4* and have all healers and cleansers (Rigard, Melendor, Kiril, BT, Sonya, Caedmon) as costumes, then Valhalla (Almur, Gullinbursti, Mist).
Iâm hoping itâs something good like Elemental Defence Down. We need a Dark elemental defence down hero thatâs easier to get than Guardian Panther.

@Guvnor any news on the new costumes going live? Are they still in beta? I assume you would kindly update us if any of this would be common knowledge, but doesnât hurt to ask.
@podyman I think we are all going to have to wait and see what happens to next monthâs Masquerade 
@guvnor is (sadly) not SG staff, just a player like you and me, who just happens to donate his time to moderate here and also be part of the community beta testers (He also happens to be something of a superhero too.
(must be a time traveler to fit everything in !!))
Personally my heart says next month for the new costumes but my head says December
âŠbut, as i said, we all have to wait and see (with fingers crossed).

Just a thought for Wu Kongâs costume, why not continue with the gambler theme? The costume special seems kind of generic. Call it coin toss and what it does is provide a 50/50 chance of causing attacks and specials to fail, or have a double effect. So, you fire his special, which means every slash/tile attack has a 50% chance of +100% damage, or 0. Specials will either fail completely, or double the effect, so an AoE will hit no one, or hits everyone at +100%. I would also extend the effect to healing and buffs⊠you get a chance of +100% effective healing rate, or +100% protection increase, etc⊠or nothing. It could make him more interesting, but a lot of bug reports about people complaining about failed healing.

except they reduce defense for different elements⊠so yes they do similar things, but for different elements. And an FTP like me is more likely to be able to get Marjanaâs or Leonidasâ costume, than for me to ever get Panther, Evelyn or Frida.
Panther and evelyne have the debuff in addition to the elemental debuff thatâs why itâs fair they deal less damages. In addition their base attack stats are higher than Mariana.
Iâd much rather have Mariana with high damages that way Iâm certain to kill the opponent with CB Mariana and BT attack buff.
Kid realx you didnât get my point go read again maybe you understand

The similiar things between Panther, Evelyn, and Frida are:
- Dispel buff from target and nearbies.
- Deal damage to target and nearbies (not minor).
- Elemental (element weak against the heroâs element) defense debuff.

Obakan with costume should have same special skill SIF then it would be excellent , otherwise just put him on HALL OF FAME s1 heroesâŠ
No
Also no; the main beta-beat thread (linked in the OP) has the updates for when Beta opens & closes and what is being tested in that iteration of beta.

i really dont understandâŠ
evryone were crying for a 5* red and yellow elemental def down for years
now we finally get them with the costumes
but you guys rather trade that skills for a higher direct damage or other skills
4 turns elemental debuff on titan, raids is much more usefull than a 3rd skill or a little bit higher dmg
there is many way to make marjana more balanced and keep 4 turns for elemental debuff and she would still be great
We ll always have more heroes who can deal higher dmg or with other skills, but we wont have another fire debuff, keep inmind this is the only fire debuff we will have for a very long time if not forever
so yeah, lets make it even 2 turns guysso she can deals higher dmg or have other vanilla skills

Iâm not sure what you mean by this part. We already have Guardian Falcon with a 4-turn âfire debuffâ
He meant 5 star. He said so in the first paragraph.
OK, that makes sense then. Thanks.

Thorne -he looks really good -with a ninja troop and attack nodes on emblems, his attack, along with a big special skill percentage will end up being a very big hit, and his defence is already high. This is similar to what you can do with c. Richard but at a higher attack percentage and that mana gen buff. Think he will be sneakily one of the best costumes
Obakan - I want to try to be positive seeing as everyone has written him off. 775 attack is BIG and rogue emblem path is great for attack -you can increase it by around 125 depending on the original attack stat which makes him come out at around 900! The special skill percentage is 182 which isnât massive but with the 900 attack could end up with something like (using a best guess of inputs to the damage calculation) 224 damage to all enemies at fast speed with a small riposte to boot. Definitely not useless IMO but probably not game changing⊠I think this biggest problem will be the other barbarians vying for the emblems, however if you donât have any I think he will be better than people are giving him credit for

Youâre not wrong, but blocking new buffs is a pretty powerful ailment to cast on your enemies.
cSabina paired with cTiburtus means your opponent canât buff their defense to flip Tibs defense drop. They must cleanse it.
And I can confirm from beta that even with regular Tiburtus, thatâs a very powerful combo.
I think sheâs pretty powerful myself, but if I were to add another effect, it certainly wouldnât be the buff immunity. That itself is also a very powerful effect as it essentially forces you to overwrite buffs with their opposites.
