đŸ§Ș The Beta Beat (V42) – Clash of Knights (Alliance Quest) and Heroes, HotM costumes, Elemental Links and families, Tavern of Legends quest update, new HotMs -- Sharing the Big Picture on What's Going on in Beta

???
These heroes are fairly ok, but all but stronger than regular. Why always nerf heroes that are - if lucky - obtainable to all?

1 question: has anyone said in discussions about these heroes they were OP or that this mana skill is making the game unbalanced?

Do you noticed how SG is releasing all this information about updates for old and new HoM’s and trying to distract players from the complains form the ToM and the new hero balance and at the same time distract the attention from the sell of aether

Defeating Fire titans is already nearly broken and some of these changes are going to drastically magnify this.

+10% attack bonus for all Ice with Frida/Miki
+15% attack bonus for all Ice with Athena

Ice teams attacking Fire Titans really did not need another 25% attack. :slight_smile:

It may be because the bonuses are stackable and will affect all allies. So taking Devana with Elradir in team and firing both their specials will lead to increase of their mana twice. Now all five of them could be pretty fearsome once they get going. Hopefully it is for this reason.

The mana from Devana and Elradir or Frosth etc, doesn’t stack because they are different colour, they only give mana to their colour, they are good for mono teams.

Based on what we see in Beta now the same type of Elemental Link can be applied to your heroes from only one element at the same time for Heroes earlier than 2021.
So if you cast Hel’s special skill the she applies the +15% attack and defense elemental link to all elements, and while this Dark elememental link icon is visible for all allies if Ares casts his special his Red elemental link for +15% attack and defense is not applied to all allies, and what’s more even the duration of the Dark elemental link is not reset to 6.

And according to Staff this is working as expected.

So for Devana and the others this mana gain Ellemental Link will not be stack, but it will be applied to all too allies regardless of the Elemement starting from 01/01/2022.
And the hidden other Family Bonus will be revealed.

Okay thanks a lot. Sounds confusing, so I think I’ll just wait until it comes live :upside_down_face:. Brainstorming is still fun though. However if links don’t stack then I agree that Malicna and company element link nerf is undeserved.

Yeah, it is a bit confusing.
The HoTMs will be better than now in Buff Booster tournaments as these buffs are not dispellable.

i’m beginning to think decisions aren’t being driven by anything more than what gets hit when they randomly throw a dart on a board–not even the “what will bring in more revenue” question seems to be behind this decision.

“balance changes”

dart lands on “nerf the small amount of mana element link”

no rhyme or reason to this decision.
