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.

[Dr_Evil_Genius]

I think cooling down from the Power Creep Sprint is good, but this hero as described doesn’t seem to be very competitive. This hero looks like it was designed to be a HotM.

I could be wrong, so I want to get the perspective of everyone else.

[Suraj283]

Special has been changed from aliment duration reduction to incoming damage reduction.

[Tidyup]

Yeah seems too basic, down to her being another freaking cleric healer

[Tidyup]

Her mana gain after HOT wears off is gone too. Double nerfed before release

[Tidyup]

It’s so confusingly worded, what does the passive mean. Does it only cover her or all allies?

[Jesse1992]

Bye bye zhuge liang

[Mestre]

Hi all, the description must be fixed.

[PlayForFun]

Yes, there are several changes. Including one of the hero’s passive, and increase of healing, and the change what @Tidyup mentioned.

The hero card is changed to match with the actual in game state.

Polls are now enabled.

[Blacksakura]

This hero looks interesting.

[Blacksakura]

[MountainMann]

They took away the only intriguing things about her special, the mana gain and Ailment duration cut. Now she just seems like a run of the mill healer

[BuffOlderHeroes]

A good healer is a good healer but she’s pretty usual. A big stats update over other also good doctors, for sure.

[mogulemon]

Boring hero

[sergione22]

[dusko_m]

Moonbell is much bigger pain in the **** than Maegwyn

[dusko_m]

Also got my Maegwyn today. Good healer but nothing to be super excited. I was kind of hoping for Salniss but can not really complain

[beave]

I’m surprised by the negativity in this thread, lol. I know everyone likes the big, splashy damage heroes, but this is an excellent healer who will still be relevant long after those damage dealers have become outdated.

Excited to have pulled her!

[Dr_Evil_Genius]

The hero’s special was changed upon release.

The damage reduction is a nice touch for this character.
