🧪 Early Information on Season 2 Hero Costumes [Part of The Beta Beat v43]

NOTE: Please do not, under any circumstances, share IMAGES OR VIDEOS from Beta in this or any public Forum thread. Violations can cause players to lose their Beta accounts, or threads to be closed down.

This thread is to provide early insights and discussion on the costumes for Season 2 (Atlantis) heroes.


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.

:hugs: Family Bonus

The costumes have the same family as the original hero.
The normal and the costume version of a hero is counted as two unique heroes.


Hero Academy

The new legendary heroes and costumes are added to Hero Academy 10 as a possible result.
So most likely they will be added in the live game too once the new costumes will go live.

Four solid heroes are getting better
Poseidon: more damage and blocking all effects. You can switch depending on the enemy. Solid secondary at fast speed. Could be good for Alfrike tanks.

Ursena: I read the first three bullets and couldn’t tell the difference off of the top of my head. Then I looked at it is the exact same first three bullets. Adding in EDD. She’ll be great for titans. If you you see her at tank, I’m not sure why you’d bother using Holy heroes against her.

Kage: damage between his two situations. But throw in the target is immune to buffs and gets defense down, even if they’re for 2 turns, and I like this version better. Does remind me a bit of Victor where he does a lot of things, but not sure he does any one thing great.

Ariel: she’ll heal for less, but I’ll always go for the overheal. I prefer direct mana gain to the percent buff, although on defense this may not be as good.

No reason to summon in AR until these are released. These are all featured in separate months for now. I wonder if that will continue. I guess I want Ursena the most since I lack a Dark EDD.

Looks like everything I have collected over 18 months will have an upgraded version in 3-4 months… Oh well, I guess I will have to pull these with coins I find during Atlantis rising. Gonna wish for dupe Ursena, Kage and Ariel…:man_shrugging:t2: :slight_smile:

Does he have a passive as well? Poesidon is already good against Alfrike because he gives resistance to the mindless attack. But now the expanded ailment protection will help greatly against Frigg and others as well

Oops I meant secondary effect. I’ll edit. Thank you.

I like the special skill of costumed Poseidon, Ursena and Ariel. Not a big fan of costume Kage - still prefer his original version.

Even though I got Sergei and he’s helped my yellow titan scores immensely, I’d really love to bring in costume Ursena. I’d then keep Sergei but only focus on his second charge of attack up. Would be a really great team to me, and I wouldn’t need to try to get a second Sergei next event. Though I’m sure at this point I’ll pull panther finally lol (just like I pulled Ranvir after limit breaking and maxing Bertold)

Still nothing for inari? Sigh…

I would prefer if mok arr was the one with the EDD over ursena, it would make him be worth to pull

Poseidon, Ursena, Kageburado, Ariel. The 5* from Atlantis who clearly needed a costume way before any other 5* from Atlantis.
At least they could mix it a bit, two already nice heroes and two “oh, this was actually a s2 5*, i totally forgot he/she actually existed” hero.

Even when revisiting season 2 heroes, they still won’t give Inari anything… smh

It seems more and more like SG/Zynga are moving to a pay-to-win model with this game. Their goal is not to balance the game by giving weaker heroes a buff. Their goal is to unbalance the game so whales will have pay to summon those particular heroes and not stop summoning until they get them if they want to keep up. No one is going to chase Inari or Mok-arr, but the whales will have to chase these costumes if they want to keep using these heroes.

More pay to pull content. Zzzz Atlantis coins aren’t even avaible anymore. Those seahorses doesn’t count. You need $100 in loot tickets to collect 1 pull. Lol.

People aren’t even commenting on those threads anymore. Guess we are all tired. Nothing to be said. Good luck for whales guess they’re the only ones addicted enough to continue this.

Ursena Costume - The very crux of creativity.

Take a hero and just add another bullet.

20 PATHETICS.

Almost.
The “Deals extra damage against Holy” is removed and this is added instead of it.
But yeah the change is not much…

    • She now boosts health with 520 instead of 400
    • She is now casts a buff of regenerating moderate amount of mana instead of small amount of mana over 4 turn.

The OP is updated.

Ariel does more health boost than Heimdall on a faster speed. Great, i see the balancing efforts there. She has mana gain buff, Heim has a low attack buff. She cleanses, Heim MAY revive (doesnt really happen). Gj SG you just turned the best healer in the game into a god now.

That’s exactly what I’m thinking. I don’t consider ressurection as a proper skill, so basically heimdall only has a 500 boosted health and a weak attack boost at slow speed
