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

• What exactly is a Gacha? (Read before posting things about "unfair pulls")

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.

Pulled her twice this morning. She seems like Anne with better stats. A better first skill (more dmg and lower hp requirement)

But Anne has a nice 2nd skill and Ethel gets a mana penalty…

Still very worth leveling up imho

@Geert1986

Pulled her twice this morning.

Same here…kinda hoping for Archie costume since I already have him leveled and LB. Piggy looks cute.
She does seems like a good hero even with the penalty.

[Gargon]

A surprisingly strong Seasonal event hero I think. Of course only avg speed, but still, for a seasonal hero, it´s better than expected.

[Blem]

Not too bad. Like with all Springvale heroes, use with an ailment blocker such as Garnet, Emilio, Vanda etc or mana reduction resistant heroes and you’re golden. MIght give her some love if I grab her

Game Well

[Soulwarden]

Yawn, problem solved - I no longer care much for Anne, thanks Ethel!

[PlayForFun]

The polls are now enabled for this hero card.

I got her this morning at my 3rd coin pull, and so far I have the same impressions as the ones already shared.
It’s like Anne with lower hp requirements and way higher stats. The mana penalty hurts but it’s not killing the usability of the hero.
Stats are good enough so she can be used both in attack and defense.
And finally, yes, it also takes Anne out of my pool of candidates for soul exchange

[dansing]

Popped in….

[BeleCZ]

Got this guy aswell, first what comes in my mind was - seriously without SINGLE passive?
Seeing my costume Anubis having 3, is quite a letdown.
Anyway solid hero, even tho got way better thats than Anne, no secondary skill, slower… not sure if it can be really better. Anyway gonna give him a try a gonna get Anne from SE aswell.

[Soulwarden]

I mean, +200 stats is quite big, that already means he’s going to hit harder, comparing the non-emblemed 2LB attack stats this guy should hit around 20% harder (multiplicative, not damage special %), and then add in the +50% more from his special, he technically should hit for 720% compared to Anne’s 550% if we dropped him down to her stats to compare, that paired with a 10% lower HP threshold for needing the follow-up attacks actually makes a decent difference.

I anticipate this guy to hit hard.

[DrkDiddy]

Underwhelmed with this hero as well. Better stats than Anne but worse special in comparison with Ethels average speed vs Annes fast speed. Not a desirable portal to use s lot of tokens in.

[Soulwarden]

I disagree, don’t bash this one until you try it - the healer is crap though, yeah.

He hits harder than Anne, and let’s be honest - that was the main point of her, the follow-up ailments she added were nice but I never saw them as part of the reason I wanted her.

The average speed is kinda meh but also passable because he hits harder, there definitely could have been something else added to him though, a nice little bonus or something - or a passive.

Tbh, what they need to do is rid of this stupid debuff for all Springvale heroes and give them a passive as well.

[DrkDiddy]

I hope you are right and she turns out amazing! I agree totally with removing the debuffs from Springvale heroes as it does make them less desired and they are no longer some of the strongest released. I guess I find strict damage dealers lacking lately due to the overall stat increases of heroes. I used to use Master Lepus costume on the regular, and before his recent buff, increasing stats of newer heroes had made him way less effective than when he was released. My thinking is the same will happen to her.

[Soulwarden]

That’s a fair assessment - they definitely could have done more with this hero, however, I am not disappointed with it.

[DrkDiddy]

In fairness i would want her over the other 2 featured

[dansing]

Time of those silly ailments on Springvale heroes is long over when stats and specials of new heroes went thru the RooF….

@Petri : this doesn’t make any sense in today’s times….seeing hero designs and their impact….
Since,
Especially the last 12 months…

I am sure you are reading all the posts…. Wanted this comment mentioned… to say Hi !

[Nightmare2048]

Also Anne is fast. But when you care more about damage than debuffs (Anne’s debuff triggers only when enemy fires special and for example in tower you don’t want that) than the cow seems OK option. Still don’t like that mana debuff, though the first special fired is one the counts the most. Also, the chaining requirement is 10% lower, which helps a bit.
