I got Red Hood 10 months ago and she was the first one I maxed. However that was a lucky pull and I did not level her right away because Boldtusk took priority, and then later Wilbur came along which interrupted her progress.
If I had to estimate how long it actually took me (i.e. the actual time spent leveling her) it would be 6 months.
First 2 month I was playing Puzzles only without interesti to heroes, the farm, the materials. 10 month for first full 5* hero. I had all materials for yellow, but hadn’t yellow hero 5*, but I had red, blue, violet and green 5* heroes without materials for 80…
Started playing at the end of September 2018. Drew my first five-star (Onatel) at the end of January 2019, but she didn’t end up being the one I maxed. Drew Poseidon at the end of March 2019, brought him to final ascension at the end of May 2019, and finished maxing him in mid-June 2019. Wasn’t sure exactly which of these you were asking about. Really, the key is, it took me about 8 months from the time I started playing to the time I had enough ascension materials to fully ascend Poseidon. If it had been a blue hero, probably sooner (pulled two scopes on mystic visions); if it had been a green, maybe a touch longer (only up to 7 tonics since I started playing, and that counts Shrikewood last week).
That is crazy how long it takes. Some of you could be Budhist monks with the amount of patience you have. And here I am thinking 4 months is a long time, but im still a fair way off probably, who knows.
I need 2 darts and tomb of tactics to max Drake and Seshat and Azlar are way off, need HEAPS of items still.
