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:

meh, disappointing, aint even gonna try pulling it for sure now

What? 815 Damage to ALL? Ok, here we have our first „when I fire the Team is dead“ hero. Congrats to the Devs!

„But you can dispell her“, yeah sure, right now where Ukkonnen is everywhere. This game is dying. Seriously, what’s the point of this hero?


Got this titan killer

Seems to be a weaker version of Green Knight.

Green knight:

  • All enemies get -24% defense for 3 turns.
  • Deals 265% damage to all enemies.
  • If the caster dies during the next 5 turns, they are resurrected in the beginning of their next turn with 45% health,and 765 damage is dealt to all enemies. All status effects and stacks are removed when the caster dies.

So GK revives with more health and barely less damage. But he gives def down first, and then 265% damage to all.

I prefer Green Knight…

I think Xiwangmu’s greatest is

There is no other hero who can give +% Atk stack to other heroes and this effect can stack with any other +%Atk buff. So, I think Xiwangmu will be great heroes for titan.

Her greatest asset is still the crit up and permanent attack stack

his stats are way worse and 50 critical is way better

This is just crazy stats.
982 attack
957 defence
1507 hp

And that’s just the raw stats without emblems and any LBs

Yeah I love the attack stack :muscle::muscle::muscle:
