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:

I think the other one is better.

I would also like to imagine that this hero isn’t as OP as she looks

I like this one better…lol…cleric or not I can always use another healer plus
I’ll try a few singles and my token 30x but I won’t be holding my breath for a new hero…
Good luck everyone!!

The hero card contains all changes.

Polls are now enabled.

I managed to get her on a 10x and I’m a bit bummed out. I don’t see the value yet but maybe she is hard to kill since it is at fast speed. I don’t think I’ll invest all those aethers though to find out.

Can’t spell or pronounce her name, but here’s her full picture.

I also pulled her on a ten pull… my darts runneth over so ill level but she certainly doesn’t look as strong as the featured heroes in previous bf portals have looked. Hope im wrong.

What exactly am I missing? I have Melodymuse and Revna both maxed out plus a spare Revna. But this one looks as good if not better to me. Why all the hate?

Gives inconsistent support outside of her healing. Also, you can heal as much as you want in the current meta, but when everything nukes you left, right and center, it doesn’t matter.
Don’t get me wrong, she is borderline unstoppable against enemies who have past their prime, but would be quite middling against enemies of her generation

Given that she gives 50% hp to those with less than 50% hp AND regenerates 1050 BOOSTED HP over 3 turns to ALL allies at Fast speed (which is uncleansable by the way) basically having the team boosting over 300 hp per turn the whole match once she fires…not to mention by herself her family bonus has a 75% chance to cleanse 1 ailment from ALL allies when she is hit by a special skill…she could very well be one of the most problematic holy heroes in the game.

Side note: she also gives 100% special skill damage to a random ally for 3 turns which means it could be 3 different allies with plus 100% damage…or 1 ally with plus 300% damage…AND they get 33% mana. Given the type of hard hitters currently in the game…that vould be devastating to an opposing team.

Dont underestimate this one if you face a team with her as Tank…:thinking:

That’s not how it works as it’s not a stack. Not only is it really lucky to bless the same hero in all 3 turns to have 300% special attack, but I’m pretty sure it replaces the old buff.

It is also another yellow healer. In the last month we have gotten Wealhtheow, Astrid, Rosalind, and Sludgus to go along with all the other great yellow healers.

Don’t forget Melodymuse. She’s been doing good for me when I use her!

As far as i can tell…youre correct. Thanks.

I kinda have one like this in a blue 4 star, but slow instead of fast, and doesn’t do anything after healing. His name is Raffaele.

He’s a five star actually.

I had such great luck with the elemental portals
