📯 Freya – Season 3 Hero – 5* Dark/Purple: Thoughts, Discussion & Summon Results with Feedback

Freya is only 2/19 here so the attack damage will go up…but in the end the 10 attack minions hit Alby for 223 of just Minion damage. Also, very useful when Kunchen cast Defense Down on all then she overwrote with Defense Up on all.

I do not understand Freya special:

  • Raven Minion gives +120% attack to all its owner’s other minions.
    When her special up. I check the other hero and did not see any attack increase. I try to put mother North together with her but do notice anything different.
    Could someone help explain something I missed.
    Appreciate in advance.

Gives 120% attack to owner’s MINIONS not to owner. This may be your misunderstanding. :thinking: :slightly_smiling_face:

Absolutely, though I admit to being in the minority in the court of popular opinion on this matter. Freya is yet just one more reason to level Grimble or Gobbler. Her fast mana and synergy with other minionators make her no joke. I look forward to pairing her with the likes of Delilah, Boots, Telluria, etc…

If we analyze Freya individually, she will not be an above average heroine. In fact, maybe a little below. But when we take into account her synergies with other minion summoners, the scenario changes completely.

I tested it with Telluria and the result went far beyond my expectations. The union of the two not only provides extra protection for the team, but also causes significant extra damage to opponents. Because it is fast, in a few moments the scene is full of minions, resistant and that cause significant damage.

I am testing it with Inari and then I will do the same with Delilah, Seshat, Red Hood, MN and Santa. But the result with Telluria has already excited me a lot.

I believe that the analysis of Grimble’s usefulness will be considerably improved.

Goodness! I will have to keep this in mind now! I wanna see Freya + Telluria in action, too! Thank you for this info! :grin:

Yes, Telluria and Freya are very good together.

I guess I’ll finally have some use for the Captain of Diamonds if they become a popular duo

Anyone tried her with Inari? The fox minions already hit hard, and I’d imagine would be doing something like 100+ damage / hit.

And the two of them would make for an interesting defensive paring.

I’m testing her with Inari. But it is still at a very early stage. Once I’m done, I’ll post my impressions. With Telluria, Freya is fantastic.

Minions
And this is strange, because ahe doesn’t power up her own minions

if she casts twice, she will power the first batch of her own minions. or that is what i got from her thread so far.

@Red_Sun happy to hear telluria and freya work well together, they seem like a natural pair. i was lucky to get both in this cycle, i think freya’s value would be diminished quite a bit without telluria pull.

anyway it will be some time before i will have both maxed but i was wondering if you managed to test freya with inari? it seems to me this pair would be a bit too luck dependant although good in theory.

Thanks, will keep my eyes on the minions attack then.

If Freya manages to fire twice, I’d expect my opponent to already be dead. Isn’t that just a case of “win more?”

You are obviously VERY anti freya considering you account for 10% of the posts on this thread.

However, it doesn’t seem like you’re in beta. And it looks like other very well respected players on the forum have solid counter points to your arguments. So I’m apt to listen to those with actual experience and those who have a trusted track record of deep game strategy.

I’ll max her and I am loving the idea of taking her out with sesh or red hood.

Thanks @Rigs and @Ender_BattleSchool for the counter points here.

She will fit in the que behind hel #2 and Rigard c who is almost done.

So, I am having fun playing around with her (Vids to follow) kinda seeing that a full team of minions is overkill as they quickly just bump healthy ones out. Freya with 1 maybe 2 more Minion Heroes like Telluria or Seshat seems idea. Not much benefit with her and hood sadly, since Hoods minions do not attack and the extra AP is wasted. But Freya - Telluria - Seshat has been super fun and gives room for two other utilities like an AOE and Sniper. Right now I am playing around with a 2 2 1 of Freya BK Telly JF and Seshat. There are great Rainbow defense options with Freya and Telluria at tank too.

Forgot that about red hood, but luckily I have telly just about at T3 and will be maxing her shortly.

Can’t wait for the videos and to play around myself shortly.

And I could do that same team (but sub GM for JF). I’ll try that out too.

and your point? does that mean she won’t buff her own minions if she casts twice?
freya is obviously not the preminum sniper one woman army, she needs other heroes to make her good. basically she is support and she enables minions play.

i get that you’re dissapointed with her, she doesn’t seem great if you have no other minion casting heroes, and probably won’t replace sartana, kage or hel

Freya is surprisingly good for auto-farming lower Season 1 levels. Once she fires, no matter how dumb AI moves the tiles, the enemies will get slaughtered. And this will continue basically until the end of the battle.

I tried with Inari, Seshat and Red Hood was all good fun. It’s nice to have some fun heros. Suppose adding Rumple could make this my who knows what will happen team.

Fun Fact: with BK active Grimble will ONLY eat his minions…all others untouched
