:money_with_wings: Avoiding Overspending & Heartache :broken_heart:
Or: How many summons are needed to get a Seasonal Event Legendary Hero?

It’s important to remember that Seasonal Event Heroes have extremely low summoning odds. No amount of summoning will guarantee a Seasonal Hero.

On average, in a 10-pull, you have a 4.9% chance of summoning a particular Seasonal Legendary Hero.

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

Some useful insights:

  • 39 times out of 100, you’ll get a specific Seasonal Legendary Hero by pull 100
  • 95 times out of 100, you’ll get a specific Seasonal Legendary Hero by pull 598
  • 99 times out of 100, you’ll get a specific Seasonal Legendary Hero by pull 919

Putting that in Perspective

  • 61 out of every 100 people won’t get a specific Seasonal Legendary Hero by the 100th pull

  • If 1 Million players each summoned 100 times, 610,000 of those players wouldn’t get the specific Seasonal Legendary Hero

  • 5 out of every 100 people won’t get the specific Seasonal Legendary Hero by the 598th pull

  • If 1 Million players each summoned 598 times, 50,000 of those players wouldn’t get the specific Seasonal Legendary Hero

More Insights & Reading

I highly recommend reading these two 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 pulled him, checked his special and it looks very interesting, he can wipe out the opposite team.
I will pair him with Gazelle. It will be nuclear weapon.
Edit: Gazelle negates his attack debuff :grin:

so what exactly does chain through mean? lets say he is on defense and hits my center hero. then damage goes to flanks. no % success and no damage reduction? now flanks are hit - where does it go? does it go from left flank to left wing and back to center? and so on and so forth? when does it stop chaining?

If you hit left flank, the damage will go left wing and center, right flank and right wing. Every heroes only can be hit by once.

It chains until its a gap. So if you have full team he will attack them all. If your left flank is dead and he attacks the tank it will affect your tank, right flank and right wing.

I got hím for the first pull. I have Malosi Poseidon And him waiting for the darts:D What do you recommend who should I ascend first?

Possibly dumb but… Does he chain in both directions?
So if I target the Tank, the attack will chain all heroes, or does it just go from left to right, so in that case, he would target Tank > R Flank > R Wing ??

So Killhare does 300% to all no matter what. Roostley does 280% to the target and than chains to addiacent targets. Isn’t killhare way better???.

think the debuff of killhare is wayyyy more painful…

What are the thoughts on Paladin emblems for him? I know it depends on rest of heroes and overall team makeup. I have Richard (+costume) and Justice as my Paladin emblems and am not sure if I will be able to get anything better.

He has higher attack stats.

Compared to killhare, roostley seems to be better in defense, and not as good in offense

Because:
After you (normally at first) kill the tank, roostley will be a middle mana 280% hitter on two targets. And most of the time middle mana will be to slow to fire while 5 enemies are standing.

Killhares debuff can greatly be outplayed with grazul, blackknight or best case jeanfrancoise.
But that needs good timing.
In a defense I think killhare is tricky, although she even has 40% more special damage than ursena. WOW!

Personally, had no luck. My wife has jean and killhare… roostley is fair, killhare is great.

I’m loving the new Heroes, very creative. This one in particular with the chain effect seems very interesting. Hopefully I can pull some of them.
