Itā€™s the super low sword the Owl has that makes me think that even in the best case scenario it wouldnā€™t do that much damage anymore, as many othersā€¦ (that is of course, depending if you have them or not)

And after the last balancing update there is now a slightly better chance that we would get an actual buff without even an costume-walled buff :smiley:

Version 51 Release Notes & Status:

So the Covenant Summon may not happen at the same time as the Covenant quest.

  • If this is a time limited portal (say 24 hours), it certainly can create an urgency to summoning.
  • It could allow them to rotate heroes more often or just have the portal open more frequently than just when the quest is up.
  • Itā€™s supposed to be random, but I could see it coming up during less valuable portals when players may not be summoning as much.
  • They can change the randomness at any time without announcing it, so this is great for revenue management on their part
  • This will generate at least 10 new topics before the end of the year due to frustration or confusion
  • Depending on the portal timing, players may want to flask to finish the quest so they can use the coins. This situation would occur if the portal closes say 5 hours after the quest starts (a situation like this will annoy folks based on time zone favoritism)
  • This seems like a smart business move by SG.
  • I think this is neutral or a net positive for players. Some will say this is a greedy move, but if it results in a more frequent portal or better rotation that could help those that do want to summon.
  • The lack of planning will be quite annoying for many. Players wonā€™t want to not be able to use those coins immediately after gaining them.

Wow, yuck.

Iā€™ve long since resigned myself to ā€œearning coins will not get me anything the vast majority of the time,ā€ but changing that to ā€œand now you could get to wait weeks before that disappointmentā€ is just more of a downer.

Frankly, this smacks of ā€œwe just realized we can run the portal a lot more often than the event, ā€˜cos the portal is all we really care about anyway, in case anyone missed the point that one time the event wasnā€™t ready yet and instead of canceling it we just ran the portal anyway.ā€

If it is still 400 gems per pull, it really doesnā€™t matter to me when the portal is.

Since Iā€™m not pulling much for Styx this month, thought Iā€™d try my luck landing a monster hero instead (since I failed at the last Covenant). Happy with Hawthorn for the main reason that itā€™s the name of my town so I love his name :sweat_smile:

Nice one @Ugk26, jealous of the new blue - sheā€™s gonna be a beast thatā€™s for sure! Unfortunately it was King Arthur that landed in my lap instead :cry:

Itā€™s a dupe Evelyn unfortunately as I managed to pull her a couple of taverns ago lol.

I pulled two before hitting these guys lol.

Thatā€™s unfortunate, but that healer is very nice with the reflect and mana gain.

Is anyone else concerned that they removed 5* Monster Hunter Heroes from this portal??? Seems so shady to me. If Monster heroes are for Monster Island portal, why are they partially available here each month? An answer apart from money that makes sense within the realm of the game. We already have challenge festivals that feature old event heroes and S2 that features old HotMs, so why do we have that again?

Will the Monster Island portal only feature Monster Hunter heroes or will they be old event and okā€™d HotM in there too?

Saving gems for Styx and would not use gems here anyway but I thing I will buy $10 offer and one or two $3 and try for heroes. I still donā€™t have blue EDD barring Nordri or C-Athena (and I like her base outfit much more for titans, as that extra turn for gradual DD is noticeable) and this one offers both. Have no Evelyn either and have Fogg but for combo with Guan Yu she would be nice. Hope wonā€™t get Isrod whom I have.

Iā€™ve got both hunters


So sad I wasnā€™t able to get Frida or Evelyn. A good 5s EDD would be welcome to bench Almur and Nordri

Just got dupe Cap Kestrel and MokArr who will be useful for next SEā€¦ it is what it is but all in all I cant complain

In the original notes published for the Covenant Portal it explained that the featured Monster Hunter heroes would rotate every time the portal is available. It doesnā€™t explain why, just that the Monster Hunterā€™s available each time would be different. It just states that the ā€œpool of obtainable heroes & featured heroes will change each time the Covenant summons appearsā€. I donā€™t know why they have decided not to release the entire family and have it available for each portal summons, but Iā€™m sure it has something to do with profits.

Iā€™m afraid youā€™re probably right. I guess I was just looking for a logical reason within the realm of the game. Has the pool of heroes outside of the featured ones changed? I find it curious that they still have the 3* and 4* monster hunters in there. Clearly they are baiting people with the Monster Hunter heroes, yet the portal is apparently ā€œunrelated to Monster Island eventā€? Not sure how that can be

Are we seriously going to be running coveneat during Atlantis rises? Thanks Small Giant.

Evelyn is the ony one i would like from the game, but im not paying that increased cost for a chance at her. Ill wait till either i get her from HA10, or Soul Exchange

Where is the quest?! Shouldnā€™t it been avaible this time?

What a mess. This portal is just ridiculous. 400 gems and they remove the hunters from it every time.

Not only that, they had the audacity to put Evelyn there to bait people to summon. Iā€™m impressed Miki isnā€™t there. They will probably feature her/him in the nest 500 gems portal.

Blargh.
