Avoiding Overspending & Heartache

More Insights & Reading

I highly recommend reading these three threads for more information and context on summoning odds:

• How much should I spend?- HotM cost, and odds, analysis

• [WARNING] A Summons Experience - Chasing Guardian Panther - A Warning for Chasing Heroes

• https://forum.smallgiantgames.com/t/what-exactly-is-a-gacha-read-before-posting-things-about-unfair-pulls/29490?u=playforfun

If you’ve read them a million times before, you may consider reading them again before deciding on your budget for summoning. A little time spent deciding on how much money you want to risk on summoning goes a long way to avoiding disappointment, frustration, and regret later.

[notyou87]

3x free pulls i got this guy.
Serms ok

[Kalgaath]

Three Helgis out of seven pulls aswell.
UT2 Morris

[Vonner]

Pulled him just now. I’m confused about the “8 random enemies”. Does that mean double damage to 3 of them?

[notyou87]

random usually means exactly that. It doesn’t mean he will hit all 5 enemies then 3 more, he could just hit 2 enemies 4 times each, or any other variation.

I am going to max mine, he seems ok, but maybe he will suck, who knows

[PlayForFun]

The hero card contains the changes.

Polls are now enabled.

[Glaber]

This passive is a funny way to punish Toon Jahangir in Rush tournaments

The special counters Shrubbear. We’ll see if he can one-shot him like Guardian Elephant does to some taunt heroes.

It would be fun to level multiple

[sergione22]

Inserted in this team he should do harm especially after lowering enemy defenses

[Nightmare2048]

He’s also great partner to Shrub, as he can reset his taunt.

I think I like him, he’s first 3* buff resetter. And 8 hits of 130% plus Molten core is a lot of damage.

[Glaber]

Nice. That could be huge

[sleepyhead]

Just pulled today, seems like a fun one

[Vonner]

Thanks a ton!! It’s a cool skill

[Kalgaath]

Update: 7 Helgis out of 18 total pulls. Invasive.

[notyou87]

Mine maxed. Full attack path

[Samantha7]

@PlayForFun

you

This guy is slow, not good. His special is meh - but look at his passives amd he becomes a superstar. I will definitely level him first.

[Paxtoll]

Max On

[Tidyup]

Strange that this is the only hero of the family that deals standard % damage and not the firestrike style

[Vartos]

He seems a good replacement for Sudri.

[sleepyhead]

Appreciate your input passives definitely make a big difference !
