:hugs: Family Bonus

Ninja Heroes have a family bonus for unique heroes of the same family.

Ninja Family
Bonus for 1 / 2 / 3 Heroes:

  • 5% / 10% / 15% chance to dodge normal attacks and Special Skills
  • 5% / 10% / 15% chance to counterattack with 60% / 90% / 120% of the damage received

The two effects have individual sequential processing. So one may not trigger while the other might.

More Insights & Reading

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

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. :slight_smile:

:thinking: Wondering About Your Personal Situation?

Feel free to discuss your team and roster here, and ask for advice from other Forum members.

Wtf. So with 3 charges the fiend almost kills everyone every turn? AND if that doesn’t work after 3 turns, it deals 2250 damage?! I guess I need to do a 10-pull here, sheesh.

after seeing the post beta changes, quite a bit less excited about having 2 of these especially compared to the purple one, still will be useful but looked beastly before

Iga + Whitefang is a good Diaochan counter combo for those fortunate enough to have them. Whitefang’s passive making heals half as effective will prevent removal of Iva’s fiends.

You’ll only need to match 5 yellow tiles to start the counter play to the plague that is Diaochan and you won’t need to bother matching blue tiles (I bring Whitefang as a solo blue to most raids).

16

Agree
 that’s a bit of a bummer

17

Congratulations! I think the ninja artwork is fantastic!
Definitely toned down I pre-release

18

200% per turn would’ve been fun, but I still like Iga.

I don’t think a strategy where you’re letting the opponent cast minions to increase your own damage is going to be as effective. I haven’t done the math, but I doubt going to 700-800% damage is going to do anything but kill the minions that you’re looking to prevent in the first place.

19

Iga’s fiend dmg was way too much. Glad they toned it back.

We have to consider that not every defense has C. Diaochan and I am happy that they didnt creat a hero that single handidly destroy whole teams on full charge.

Still good luck battling him in bloody tournaments.
