: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.

:thought_balloon: What do you think of Mica ?

This thread is for thoughts and discussion on Mica.

Based on preferences Forum members have expressed, please try to stick mainly to Mica and not wander off topic too much to other heroes.

Some Popular Questions for Discussion

  • Is Mica worth summoning for?

  • Would you use Mica on Defense? Offense? War? Quests/Events? Titans?

  • Which heroes on your Roster best pair with Mica ?

  • What heroes would you take when facing Mica as an opponent?

  • Would you give Mica Paladin Emblems? Which Talent Grid path will you choose?

  • What do you think of special?

  • What do you think of Mica’s character design?

  • If you Summoned Mica and would like to post your results, please include some thoughts on why you Summoned Mica, and whether/how you plan to make use of them.*

*NOTE: Summon Results posted without any commentary/feedback at all should be flagged as Off Topic and removed, based on preferences expressed by the Forum community. Please include some comments about what you think of Mica when posting Summon Results. In addition to opinions about Mica, you are also encouraged to include how many Summons it took before receiving Mica (or how many Summons you’ve done without receiving Mica), so other players are presented with realistic experiences of the rarity of Legendary Event Hero.

:money_with_wings: Avoiding Overspending & Heartache :broken_heart:
Or: How many summons are needed to get a Legendary 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 1.65% chance of summoning Mica.

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

Some useful insights:

  • 15 times out of 100, you’ll get Mica by pull 100 (26,000 gems)
  • 56 times out of 100, you’ll get Mica by pull 500 (130,000 gems)
  • 95 times out of 100, you’ll get Mica by pull 1,796 (467,200 gems)
  • 99 times out of 100, you’ll get Mica by pull 2,761 (717,900 gems)

Putting that in Perspective

  • 85 out of every 100 people won’t get Mica by the 100th pull

  • If 1 Million players each spent $259.97 (US) to summon :one::zero::zero: times, 846,364 of those players wouldn’t get Mica

  • 5 out of every 100 people won’t get Mica by the 1800th pull

  • If 1 Million players each spent $4,671.53 US to summon :one::eight::zero::zero: times, 49,663 of those players wouldn’t get Mica

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.

If you’d like more extensive advice on sorting out your particular roster, I recommend creating a new thread in Gameplay Help & Tactics, and posting screenshots of your hero roster, along with your questions.

I have Mica paired with Garnet……he’s all the way up + 20 & LB and I have mixed feelings about him, when I get Wolfgang up and running will retire Mica from defense. Would love to hear how other players feel about Mica :slight_smile:

I’m a bit confused about it now though, when I saw him come out of that portal from my single pull I was starstruck. My first 5* Ninja. But after reading comments in the general ninja thread, and seeing a few videos I’m just not sure what to do. Do I move him to the front of the line before Anastasia, Delilah and Wolfgang or leave him at 1/1 until I have no others to work on? Opinions are greatly appreciated. :two_hearts:

Mica is not a hero for defense. Mica shines on quickly keeping your team alive, and increasing their mana speed. Is she the best paladin out there? No. Usable? Yes

Mica can also be hero for defense but make sure, you got another def up hero or cleanser in case enemy drop your defense down.

This is how I use Mica. About 80 percent I win a game with that squad, no matter the rival. So I don’t change my attack team according to defense team.

If yellow tiles come first, I have survivability.
If blue tiles come first, I take two or three opponents.
If none comes, I have dodge and counterattack to survive from ninja team bonus.

Just got him and is quite excited. Always complained to the rng gods for giving me hitters and now it finally gave me a support hero

10

I never see this guy in offense or defense, why is there no buff gor him? Like make the mana gen undispellable?
Are there any users here that can explain under what circumstances they use him (like synergy matters…). Thanks in advance!

I use Mica in my mono holy team and he is amazing support hero. He fill up his mana fast at first charge and if you are in trouble you can use him and make some more time for your team to fill up. I use him with Devana, Gullinbursti, Akkorog and Zheng Fei. His main job is to save your team against special skill attacks. Also, he speed up his allies mana, protect them and share damage. He is not for defense at all. I do not think that he need any buff, just need to give him a chance

after Jade’s buff,

Mica plunged into the bottom of this family, I believe he needs a buff…. he should give ailments to enemies as well like a 5* version of wilbur….

Would rather the defence be undispellable, and I feel that is enough to make him good. There are many so many DDs on defence recently, even a lv1 charge can shut that down

I really like this suggestion… adding to this
2nd charge, defense and mana gain should be undispellable
and if he fires at 3rd charge, all 3 buffs should be undispellable
:thinking:

and maybe boost his def up and mana gen a bit for each charge :grinning: - that’ll make it really sweet

Id agree mika deserves a buff boosted healing for all charges and a status ailment reflect in 3rd charge.

Surely he need a buff …
1.xxxx Damage to all enemies or
2. Taunt Feautre or
3. Boost Healing ability or
4. Relfection abilty

If he gave buff he will a good hero otherwise he is an below average only .

Ok cool, I’ll just work on other yellows for now…

Yeah, i agree he needs a buff too. I think that reflect for all would be pretty interesting. Shared damage and reflect may make the reflect less but it would make people second guess doing specials. Ailment reflect would work for him well. Plus keep him different than the others. Seems like each ninja has a specialty. Garnet - boosted health, ruby - reduce mana greatly, jade - dodge/reduce mana, new red - fire and stop healing, new purple - fiends, new green - minions, new blue - taunt/reflect, etc.
