:boom: Summons Availability :boom:
Or: Where can I get this Hero From?
Past HotM are available from a number of locations depending on their age.

As Zeline has been released for >24 months, she can ONLY be summoned in the Tavern of Legends Portal.
She can also be “Trained” using the Hero Academy Level 10.

Tavern of Legends
HotM’s which are >12 months of age are added to the summons pool in the Tavern of Legends Portal.

Hero Academy Level 10 Retraining
HotM’s which are >12 months of age are also added as a possible outcome of Hero Academy Level 10 Retraining.

More information on HA10 Retraining here: 🤓 Hero Academy! FAQ, Links, Guides and Discussion


:money_with_wings: Avoiding Overspending & Heartache :broken_heart:
Or: How many summons are needed to get an old HotM?
Below Maths is current as of September 2020.
Subject to change as additional heroes are added to the Portal.

It’s important to remember that the Tavern of Legends Portal has the lowest odds for a specific hero of ANY portal… No amount of summoning will guarantee a Featured Hero.

You have a 0.25% chance of summoning a specific Featured Past HotM from the Tavern of Legends Portal (0.0125% for a specific Non-Featured).

On average, in a 10-pull, you have a 2.47% chance of summoning a particular Featured Past HotM (0.12% chance for a specific Non-Featured & 12.27% chance for ANY Past HotM).

But that statistic can lead our minds astray in exactly how our odds play out as we continue summoning.

Some useful insights:

(Each 30x Summons costs 8,000 gems or ~$79.99 USD).

# of Summons ~ USD Cost
pre-tax
Odds for Specific Featured Past HotM Odds for Non-Featured Past HotM
10 $26.00 2.47% 0.13%
30 $74.99 7.23% 0.03%
100 $250.98 22.14% 1.24%
500 $1,251.88 71.39% 6.06%
1,500 $3,749.63 97.66% 17.10%
5,000 $12,500.75 99.9996% 46.48%
10,000 $24,998.50 99.9999999986% 71.35%

Putting that in Perspective

If 100 people were to complete 100x summons, spending ~$250 USD:

  • 27 WON’T get ANY Past HotM
  • 78 WON’T get a specific Featured Past HotM
  • 99 WON’T get a specific Non-Featured Past HotM

If 100 people were to conduct 1500x summons, spending ~$3,750 USD:

  • 1 WON’T get ANY Past HotM
  • 23 WON’T get a specific Featured Past HotM
  • 83 WON’T geta a specific Non-Featured Past HotM

If 1 Million players each completed 10,000 summons, spending ~$25,000 USD:

  • 1 WON’T get ANY Past HotM
  • 1 WON’T get a specific Featured Past HotM
  • 286,500 WON’T geta a specific Non-Featured Past HotM

More Insights & Reading

I highly recommend reading these two 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:

Just a correction: the card says “deals 143% damage to all enemies” not 158% damage to all enemies. :wink:

Looks like @Lumi used an old version of the card. I’ll let him know so I can get an updated version.

Today I pulled her as my first 5* and I am happy for that. As a coincidence my first 4* was melandor (nature hero) :grin:.

Noooooooo!

What is the best talent path to take with her? Most of the ones I’ve seen when raiding look like they leaned more towards balance rather than go full attack.

Zeline has been nerfed 2 or 3 times ever since she came out as HoTM.

That‘s really a good question. I have her at +7 (path imaged downwards)but still unsure. At the one hand she is definitely a support hero but on the other with a plus attacking ice. I do not know how big this extra damage is. With Lianna and Evelyn in my squad I would prefer pure defence for her. Do not know…confused…

I could only find one spot in the news/updates (unless I missed, which may be the case). I haven’t kept track of any beta changes, though. Were there other times than the below?

2018-05-18 – V 1.12 - Decreased special damage from 153% to 143%.

Correct lol. It had been a while since I cycled through cards, and totally forgot about the art change. I blame late nights more than anything else nefarious :wink: . Thanks for the catch on that, @amrath :slight_smile:

Zeline still eludes me. I wanted her so bad. I think I am in love with her. :kissing_heart:

Thinking of embleming attack path over def. thoughts?

On defense she mainly is there as a utility hero that cleanses and gives attack down. With her extra damage vs blue she already punishes offensive teams that stack 2-3 blue.

Her main concern is staying alive so she can dispel and letting your snipers or aoe hitters stick damage to them.
