I like the Copium for hoping this can be great hero for Event. I am out of touch but last I check all the āsoul-connectā heros all come with a bonus and mainly Defense down or attack boost, this does neither and just Soul-connect.
So to use this you will have to use another hero for Defence down, essentially wasting a spot for another hitter.
But donāt worry I am sure she will be great, ppl that get top100 in event must all have her or burst.
I am sure she can be used, but to consider it to be āgreatā, lol. There was a HOTM back was supposed to replace Jott and was suppose be great, poor me still using Jott and have to hold back on Titan so lol.
Soul Connect is considered a buff, not an ailment. Since itās a positive effect for the heroes affected, it canāt be blocked by an ailment blocker, resisted, mana-shielded, or cleansed like an ailment.
It can be dispelled by the heroes on the same side as Mystia though, and a buff blocker like El Naddaha would stop the Soul Connect from being applied.
My Bernadette strategy is generally mono blue. My blue team is roughly Quintin, C.Morel, Jolt, Satori, Chester (total power of 6544). Sometimes I swap Quintin out for C.Aino or 2CB.Isarnia. If I get 7 blue tiles, Bernadette is probably dead (Quintin + Morel + Jolt + Tiles).
I would never try mono green with Mystia. I suppose there is a world I do Mystia and four blues (removing Curse) hoping I get tiles in either. There is an oddity of thinking that if Iām not confident I can get 7 blue tiles, 9 green tiles will be doable.
Even if Mystia helps wipe Bernadette, theyāre pretty much a liability for the rest of the match. Soul connecting enemies isnāt helpful with my team. Slow boosted health is minimal, but could add some value.
Mystia is probably a challenge event only hero for me. For many, they may not even fully ascend her. If you gave her to me today, sheās not the first green Iāll level, and Iām not sure if Iād limit break her. I have sorcerer emblems so thatās doable, but may not be my food priority. So a weaker Mystia isnāt as helpful. I can see using her in a clean against a red hero.
I donāt see that many Bernadette tanks. I donāt expect her to be more relevant in the future. If I get her, Iāll probably give her a few attempts in friendly battles to see how much of a difference she makes. But I donāt see her as the tank buster.
Oh awesome. If meta heroes hadnāt a so short life because of stats creep, this hotm would have some value in chasing. In other hand she would be also good for events.
Ugh. Iām not a big fan of Soul Connecting my foes even when it comes with defense down (not least because many of my most effective heroes are snipers). It counts as a buff becauseā¦ it often is a buff.
So yeah, not impressed.
Waitā¦ what? Iām waiting for the good part, this is barely a backup healā¦
OMGWTFBBQ
itās reflect [color]
Iām not even sorry: reflect [color] can be one of the best abilities in the game especially if you are PvPing uphill against monster heroes you canāt match. Making them blow themselves up?
yes please
Good enough that even if it means literally ādoesnāt do much of anything else I really care about,ā having reflect is Worth. It.
ābut, but Ahmoseā you might say. Sure, yeah, okay, if you have Ahmose, you might feel that this HotM doesnāt do much for you (other than upgun the speed of reflect, which is maybe not nothing).
Iā¦ donāt have Ahmose, much less his costume, much less any 5* from Season 5 because the Season 5 portal truly detests and abhors me and has given me no reason to ever spend money on it again
So getting reflect from a HotM? Thatās a first, and yes for me at least.
Sorry, Zed. I actually wouldnāt mind getting a Zed, but I think Iām probably holding my EHTs and gempulls for February.
ā¦
I can understand folks who already have reflect-red shrugging a bit, but for folks without itā¦ reading past the rest of the Special seems indicated.
Yeah, this is an interesting HOTM for sure. Even the Soul Connection for all opponents, which is usually counter-productive without an accompanying defense debuff, seems to synergize well; I love elemental reflect heroes, but because all of the reflected damage is applied to the original caster, they generally only overkill one enemy. Soul Connection ensures all enemies get hit, and reflecting 145% of the original damage should compensate for the lack of defense debuff.
Sheās definitely a hard-counter to heroes like Bearnadette, Toon/Glass Azlar, Dima, etc. and should win some fights almost singlehandedly, much like those heroes do. Sheās certainly a niche hero, but she should be very good within her niche and thatās what I want from HOTMs primarily.
