: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.

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.

A repeatable special seems tempting for Offense

He seems unfinished, or even rushed, like something is missing. But definitely an improvement on my 4* ninja Shale.

There’s Sapphire that does more at 3rd tier. I don’t think this dude will be chased by anyone. It’s like they abandoned caring for epic heroes at all. Many new event ones are just mediocre -
some are totally broken (ie Zione Raul). There’s a reason every strong tourney team has all toons…

Oh what a lovely 4* trainer hero.

This hero gets even worse every time you read this. What a big piece of trash.

Remeber when epic heroes had value? Like Jackal and Falcon.

Look at this garbage, numbskull junk and the 4* owls. All are useless. They feel like a penalty for not catching a legendary. I’d feel better with a dupe Sonya for 2bd costume 3x Sonya

The special skill name of this Hero has been corrected.

Previously (in Beta thread) it was reading:

(“Purifing Ki” looks to be the Special Skill of Sawano, a different Ninja who is still in Beta.)

Note: Correct (English) spelling is “purifying”.

Yes, probably, I have not updated it from Osamu in Beta Beat after copy-pasting.

@PlayForFun with the sheer volume you do the tiny number of errors is truly amazing - you are a :star:.

I probably copied Sawano’s HTML code and forgot to change the Special Skill name. Good catch, thanks.

The hero card is updated with november balance update.
