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:

Sorry you only pulled dupes! I also did 100 pulls, only got Starwalker (not even any S1 or HotM strangely enough). I was hoping for a purple or yellow though…

Good luck everyone and Merry Christmas!

Just got him, just as well I didn’t take Kemeny otherwise I’d be in big purple trouble, as it stands I’ll have to leave either Lu Bu or Khepri to wait for mats.

Haven’t made my mind up on this guy yet, will need to test him, looks interesting though.

Merry Christmas.

You think?

I hope so, hopefully it’s one of those that it’s more than meets the eye, I needed a hero to give me mana gen for my slow healer, hopefully this guy can help with that until I get a current one, you have to hit 3 to get the max out of it though.

Yes he is going to be great don’t worry you will see

I wish they had kept his repair core and just dialed down the damage/amount of activations from the DoT for stolen buffs.

He is my first construct hero, so I have a question regarding construct heroes:
(I never pay much attention to all the new families, passives, and bonuses until I get one and need to)

If I fight against 2 construct heroes in the same team, if I hit just ONE of them, does it charge BOTH of their core?
