:thought_balloon: What do you think of Poppy?

This thread is for thoughts and discussion on Poppy.

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

Some Popular Questions for Discussion

  • Is Poppy worth summoning for?

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

  • Which heroes on your Roster best pair with Poppy?

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

  • Would you give Poppy Ranger Emblems? Which Talent Grid path will you choose?

  • What do you think of Poppy’s special?

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

:money_with_wings: Avoiding Overspending & Heartache :broken_heart:
Or: How many summons are needed to get an Underwild Rare Hero?

It’s important to remember that Season 4 Underwild Heroes have EXTREMELY low summoning odds. No amount of summoning will guarantee a Season 4 Hero.

On average, in a 10-pull, you have a 41% chance of summoning Poppy.

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

Some useful insights:

  • 65 times out of 100, you’ll get Poppy by pull 20
  • 95 times out of 100, you’ll get Poppy by pull 57
  • 99 times out of 100, you’ll get Poppy by pull 87

Putting that in Perspective

  • 35 out of every 100 people won’t get Poppy by the 20th pull

  • If 1 Million players each summoned 20 times, 350,000 of those players wouldn’t get Poppy.

  • 5 out of every 100 people won’t get Poppy by the 57th pull

  • If 1 Million players each summoned 57 times, 50,000 of those players wouldn’t get Poppy.

More Insights & Reading

I highly recommend reading these 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:

So Poppy is a 3* holy Misandra. Her first attack is 300+30=330% according her passive skill. The second and so on just 300%.

2 Likes

She could potentially hit 1 hero for 330% damage on that first strike followed by 3 at 165%.

She’s awesome, and I work on her straight up

Wait a second. Is the number 3 the max of chain hit or max for every single target? Cause I just saw her hitting a target twice (after hitting 2 other ennemies)

Additional hits on up to three. That reads like, first hit followed by a potential three lesser hits. Random enemies, so no need for them to be different, all four could go to the same enemy in theory.

I’m going to like this girl, even more than Agnes and nearly as much as Pixie.

ok thanks. Yeah she’s already won Agnes spot for me. She and Dawa-c and you good.

Goes up to a total of 3 potential additional “minor” hits.

Minor damage does 50% of the listed damage % (so 150% for each “additional hits”)

1 Like

Minor damage = 50% per hit. So if she luckily hits 3 times, it would be TOTAL 150% right?
Not 150% for each hit, right?

No. It would be 50% of the listed percentage.

So it would be 300% then 150%, 150% and 150%

The percentages become damage by multiplying by attack and comparing to defence stats. See this thread for an overview and details about the calculation in full:

The perfect hero(ine) for brute force.
High ATT, Strong DEF+HP.
Powerful primary special skill. Delectable secondary skill that’s not situational.
Passive skill that boosts damage. Underwild Gem bonus.
And a costume so cool and cute that if it were available for Halloween, it’d sell out faster than iPhones.
.
I’m just delighted that I got her through a gem pull.
.
.
BTW, if there’s only one target remaining, technically she could hit it 4 times for 300%+150%+150%+150% damage! OH YEAH!

I’m leveling two of her. 3* yellow was really lacking an aoe hitter outside of Dawa, Arman, and Melia, one of which is rather rare but slow. Looking forward to using her in the next 3* tourney :slight_smile:

What’s the story with the underworld gem that she can produce as part of the Family Bonus? This gem damages enemy or allies?

Explained in the OP:

Read that section.

So it is. Doh!

Worth leaving them on the field then rather than matching them away.

I have 4 at this point. Honestly thinking about levelling them all and make some fun team with lot of random hits.

Just thinking who should be the last one. Melia with the crit chance or someone else?

1 Like

Melia’s Critical chance doesn’t improve chance for multiple random hits. So if you want a fun team with multiple hits - try Dawa Costume

I know it doesn’t improve the chance for hits, but might improve the hits :slightly_smiling_face:

Good tip with C_Dawaz, but I don’t have the costume yet, so once I have it, I can give it a go.

I have tried that and that’s not worth it unfortunately compared to 4 Bjorn :confused:
