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:

Just wondering if this should read:
Summons a Bone Trap Fiend for the enemies on the edges of the enemy formation.

This hero makes it relevant to bring taunters vs C Diao. I am constantly thinking of ways to beat her as I often need to attack 4-6 of her during war.
I haven’t dared bringing taunters as she just steals them, but a double killer hit which reduces mana with 100% and gives fiends are good stuff
Would probably pair with Phorchys if I got her

Rereading the card I understand it so that the target looses 50% mana, even if hit by both attacks?
Anyone who can check this?

Just tested this, the attack took 100% of the targets mana when it took both hits.

In the past I’d have thought of making a fun team with Zila Lei, Jabberwocky, Zenobia and Rashan. Nowadays I just think it doesn’t matter because it won’t beat cDiaochan, cHathor, Mena teams.

Looks like they changed class on release, from Ranger to Sorcerer.

My core PvE group is Quintin + Zenobia + Jabberwocky and it’s a lot of fun.

I’d love to get Sigyn, Desmond, and Rashan to complete my set. (Not that I could field all six at once.)

And while Quintin is an amazing addition for flankers, obviously not terribly useful against Hathor.

Still trying to figure out edge hitting, any advice on what’s best for. Thank you !

Honestly edge hitting is generally fine in all formats, but for sure it used to be more valuable back in the day when the MNs and Kalos were more common. I think Sigyn would be great in rush because even wings charge so quickly in rush wars and you can stall them. But otherwise, she generally works well with hit-3 heroes since that gives full coverage :thinking:

Starting with the two easy PvP tactics:

  • squishy wings
  • combined with a “def down all” hero

Lots of folks tuck their healers (and rezzers) into the wings, so there are plenty of easy targets in my experience. And being able to reduce defense for all enemies makes things simple.

The flip side to this, watch out for tanky wings, especially with a reverse V.

Some less obvious tactics:

  • triple hitters
  • double up
  • versus taunters
  • Quintin

I find a triple hitter, even one mainly doing straight damage, tends to pair well with an edge hitter. They hit harder, and while you’re required to focusing on only one side, I find there’s usually an obvious priority. The extra damage helps wipe up one wing while softening the neighboring flank.

I usually pair my two edge hitters, and they go very well together. There’s some loss in flexibility (especially as they can’t be aimed) but they really focus these factics.

Taunters generally aren’t great to hit while taunting, given their defense bonuses. But it’s worth noting they get a double hit. That helps mitigate their defense, especially if they’ve already taken a beating.

As mentioned above, I use Quintin with my two edge hitters in PvE a lot. This doesn’t work as well in PvP for me since it requires building up multiple colors together. But since Sigyn is also blue, that’s less of an issue. If I ever get her, I may combine her with Zila Lei, or just accept a little less coordination with one edge hitter.

just picturing this is fun lol

I believe this should read “increased.” Or, the former number needs to be raised 26 or more.

My luck during Black Friday pulls brought me Sigyn, and I look forward to leveling her. If someone can share their experience with her, I’d appreciate reading their opinion.

I also got Mene x2, plus both costumes and toons for both Richard and Isarnia (both of which I had only fully leveled the originals). So, suggestions on order of leveling are appreciated.

Disclaimer: I know much of this is subjective, and it depends on what else I have regarding elements, speeds, and synergies, etc. Pairing Mene with Whitefang may be obvious. But if Sigyn or one of the older blues are impressive, I will gladly consider it. I’m happy taking time to have fun.
