Please include some comments about what you think of Chakkoszrot when posting Summon Results.

:money_with_wings: Avoiding Overspending & Heartache :broken_heart:
Or: How many summons are needed to get a Rare Challenge Event Hero?

It’s important to remember that Challenge Event Heroes have EXTREMELY low summoning odds. No amount of summoning will guarantee a Challenge Event Hero.

On average, in a 10-pull, you have a 33.2% chance of summoning Maeve.

But that statistic can lead our minds astray in exactly how our odds play out as we continue summoning.

Some useful insights:

  • 55 times out of 100, you’ll get Maeve by pull 20 (5,200 gems)
  • 95 times out of 100, you’ll get Maeve by pull 75 (19,700 gems)
  • 99 times out of 100, you’ll get Maeve by pull 115 (30,100 gems)

Putting that in Perspective

  • 45 out of every 100 people won’t get Maeve by the 20th pull
  • If 1 Million players each summoned :two::zero: times, 446,630 of those players wouldn’t get Maeve * 5 out of every 100 people won’t get Maeve by the 75th pull
  • If 1 Million players each summoned :seven::five: times, 48,675 of those players wouldn’t get Maeve
  • 1 out of every 100 people won’t get Maeve by the 115th pull
  • If 1 Million players each summoned :one::one::five: times, 9,710 of those players wouldn’t get Maeve

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:

Absolutely.as i just red all heroes specs and specials. This one seems the most op for mw. However we’ll see how will it work with slow mana as you need to proc def down asap. Maybe im overrating her

Got her with my first coin pull.

Will level her definitely (no other purple at the moment to do) but I have no idea how well she will work.
For rush tournament she will be be great probably, but for buff booster and no heal not so sure, most of the time something faster or with buffs works better there…

Nice one @ferg. :+1:

Last challenge event I missed out on Bauchan once again. This time I’ll probably miss out on a single Slayer hero.

Just not my summoning portal. :slightly_smiling_face:

OK first day in the rush tournament and must say she is great.


Limit broken full on attack

She is probably a perfect all-around hero for rush. She hits really hard, probably one of the hardest hitting hit 3 heroes and her - 44% def down is huge.
I was a little bit frightened how the stacks will work out with only 1 slayer, but in reality that’s no problem. 3 out of 5 battles she reached max stack and the other two she was close but the battle was over to fast.

Her stacks are great, especially 50 hp heal each round is huge and completely negates the need for a healer, if I get more slayers will lvl them for sure, even 2 or 3 Maeves could be great for rush.


Stack 10

A last point which probably gets a little bit less attention. Her passive ability. Putting dot in half is huge in rush 3* tournaments. There are Oberon (especially with costume and uncleansable dot) jahinger and maybe the sand hero. All very common and with some color restrictions there is a lack of cleaners. So that is also huge, reducing the dot paired with the self heal makes her nearly imun against dot.

I agree, it is 10% more over Tiburtus.
It is an alternative Titan teams if we do not have Cheshire Cat, same 44% defdown, but cat is 1 turn longer and fast.

I’ve been using Maeve with Noril in this tourney, and they are really good in Rush tourneys. I’m glad I picked up 2 of each. I’m ascending a second set now. Slayers would dominate rush wars and tourneys.

I will LB Maeve over Tyrum C. Her DD is more useful IMO and she hits three with minor self-healing. LB will boost her survivability a lot.

Did you go sword or shield with emblems?
Any insight after using it for tournaments which way to go with talents? :blush:

I’m happy with this decision, her self heal, class and dot reduction made her in nearly all battles last hero standing also those I lost she most of the time died last. If I get a second would probably emblem the same way.

After one week of rush I’m staying with my original comment, absolutely devastating in this mode.
I’m not sure if I would use her in no heal tournament, there her stack loose a little bit and most of the time speed is crucial there. For buff booster I will try her she is a overall great dark 3* hero.
