🧪 The Beta Beat (V47) – Season 2 Heroes and Costumes and Season 5 Heroes and Provincies -- Sharing the Big Picture on What's Going on in Beta

Options

Rumor from Beta says it looks like SGG is trying to let players have the illusion of choice for Map Season 5 stages

Just like Classes+ costumes, it seems like a way to add complexity to the game without actually improving the game ( see notes )

Now you can waste WE failing a stage by taking the wrong Amulets in addition to wrong items, and heroes

War

If you could use Amulets on war attack teams, that would actually be cool

Notes

One beta suggestion was letting players spec costumes separately, but each node cost 1x blue emblem ( do not get me started on golden emblems being non refundable when resetting ( greed, greed, greed ) )

I have updated the details about the balance updates here:

I am still waiting for the Beta to be able to upgradable.
So the new hero details will arrive once I the update is available.

The update option for Beta application is still not available.
Maybe it waiting for Approval by Apple and Google ?
(Meanwhile Staff is hidden the Beta feedback topics about V47, which were created by them earlier)
(I have some information about the earlier state in these topic about S5 map and amulet items. If Beta will not arrive shortly, then I will just add the topics based on that minimal information)

Beta Update:

I have just noticed that a new “Slayer” mana speed is introduced in Beta for Slayer heroes.

Mana speed hint in the Beta:

I have done some testing.
Slayer mana speed still needs more than 11 tiles to charge, and they are charge in 12 tiles.
If it is not 12 then I am not sure what is the exact number so I have asked staff whether if this is just some text update from “Slow” or is there any further change.

That makes me wonder if they’ll end up performing differently in Rush somehow

Slayers would be in April, but since S5 is scheduled to be released next month, we’ll have to wait and see. I also assume the Slayer heroes we currently have will also be affected by this new speed?

My instinct is that I consider it a win that non legendary heroes are getting costumes. But I get 1-2 pulls a month. How long until I get these costumes?

OMG, I am curious, how much nominal power the new 5* would have, over the original ones :slight_smile:

Ohhhh Inati gets het costume :heart_eyes: Really curious what it does.

Looking at the complexity of other costumes, it will be something like:

  • 150% damage
  • 65% dodge
  • Minions with 10% HP and 20% attack :stuck_out_tongue:
