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:

She’s actually not that bad, just a baby Odette

She looks amazing to me, usable at 5* level

Yes she has mini Odette (somewhat Darkfeather) skill , looks strong!! And her stat somehow is much better even than Jolly who recently released (around 5% above at LB2 and around 10% above when we count family bonus)

Her max LB2 stat plus 5% health, attack, defence is around the same as 4* LB1

The only problem is her “art”
lol :joy:

Smart decision to do the defence route… as it supports her purpose… and the whacks are extra.

Same plan over here…

Got her with one pull bit then again the odds to get her are very high. But everything is better then getting a S1 ‘hero’.

She will have to wait. I have two blues I want to level before her.

She is really good. Top 3* in game.

Waiting to see her in action some time, not sure she´s all that good. He recently had a 3star dodge hero with Fawn who gave additional Mana boost. This one well it´s undispellable, which makes it interesting, but the damage I don´t think will be a big bonus. At 35% chance means only 1 of 3 heroes will hit. and even if they hit it´s not something serious.

First time I’ve rushed a 3⭐️ to 3/50 (20 minutes).

I plan to go all the way to 3/60 with this hero. Moderately helpful during the Opera event. I anticipate better performance in Raid Tournaments.

Least I can do to offer an assist. You do so much for everyone here.

As for Swan Maiden, I got her on my 3rd pull and I’m done for now. Already have CD & FR; not interested in yet another slow green hero.

Leveling Swan Maiden now, also plan to go defense route & curious to try her in the Opera event.

Happy gaming! :cupcake:

I just pulled her. And I’m not ashamed of it. I reckon she’s a keeper.

Test her on offense with four fast 3*s. She’s absurd. 82% chance of generating at least one 240% snipe whenever you fire, decent chance of more than that.

I might marry her, tbh

I did a single pull actually looking for her and was rewarded. Now I will proceed to get nothing I can use for 6 months.
