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

• https://forum.smallgiantgames.com/t/what-exactly-is-a-gacha-read-before-posting-things-about-unfair-pulls/29490?u=playforfun

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.

[Tidyup]

Her and revna are the new gen healers…the new gen freaking cleric healers

[Tidyup]

And I got this freaking cleric healer! I actually want her because she would benefit my team

[Cerevan_the_Omni]

Congrats! Lets see, if Ill finally be lucky with pulling MM hero. Ill wait few days to hoard tokens

[Tidyup]

I just wished she was paladin, so that her MM can benefit from my rogue Lego troop

[ahbombim]

Just feels that she could have healing a little bit more, 33 to 38% perhaps. Anyway, she should not be too strong, she is attacking and defending both sides every turn.

[Valkyrie]

Pretty stoked! Both are new to me.

[SabrewulfofNight22]

I just pulled her on my first try with Madhammer in the same day and thought, “Oh, well that was fast!”

[Tidyup]

Nah, she adds 5% DR stack. Way too OP if she healed more, on top of her MM

[ahbombim]

We can see from Richard Firmin powerful stack, his very fast speed does not make him widely used. From here, you will see her DR need accumulated to be worked soundly, before that healing is more important. Not forgetting some fiends are too strong, Rosalind 2 times healing do not help her allies to survive.

Btw, Rosalind can attack and defend at the same time, already very good she is.

[Cerevan_the_Omni]

She would be really strong, if she healed like 15-20% hp but at very fast speed. She could stack DR alot faster… can even charge in one match for ghosted tiles after you beat center hero

[Tidyup]

Firmin with Rosalind is going to be tanky. I actually use firmin on defence so I will try them together

[Skeens]

What’s with all the fast Cleric healers lately? I just pulled 2 in the last couple of portals that were new and featured too.

[The_Janitor]

In events and on titans, i suppose, he is very useable

[Bao1]

Same here, I’m hoarding tokens too so far sitting at 2135. Aiming for 3000 or 2500 with a hope that I’ll get my first goblin.

[ahbombim]

I thinking that way too, however, i think Conglaich can do better in 2 casting

[jaguar7477]

I also got Melodymuse and Moonbell from last astral elves… which one is best and who to do first?

[Snowdoggydogg]

Rosalind’s probably the closest to Diaochan Costume you’re gonna get. She’ll be a top end tank or flank, im sure of it.

[L33tVortex12596]

I tried but no Rosalind for me… maybe next time…good luck everyone!
