What if you don’t have Mechanist’s 3rd Trait or don’t even use Mechanist at all?
Oh. You’ll get a legendary in the event chest, but it’ll be Carnex. #icry

With these new Events where the Legendary is just put into chests, which Legendary is in the shop for purchase?
Why am I not surprised?

1:2 ratio? That sounds very high. 2 Bombots is nearly a full team wipe.

I did not see that. Text shows as “drain” for me. If it does actually steal, it would be borderline OP, since the drain appears to scale with magic.
Natural max Magic is 4+8=12, for natural max base spell damage of 12+2=14.
Natural max Armor is 24+20=44, for natural boost of 44/2=22.
So natural max boosted spell damage is 36 per troop, or 144 total damage if no troop is under 36 EHP. Yeah, that’ll hurt.

Looks like there’s a difference in the text I have for DRACOS. I’ll amend it when I can, later tonight; I think I missed a drop.
Now add in guild bonus to magic (+2) and armor (+4 x2 = +8, at 2:1 = +4) to make it 42 each. Mech hero for Fast

Soothsayer
Fire soothsayer to hit as many browns as you can on turn 1, gives +1 magic to bombots. Explode bot for 43 AE. Risky, but could be very very fast. Soothsayer +1 brown on match helps too.

What about Honor or Devoted?
That’s all assuming things haven’t been tweaked since my pull; I’ll need to double-check all the numbers.

The card I see on the first post says drain. Perhaps I am missing something ?
I won’t be surprised if they release troops then nerf/buff it later. It has become a tradition.
3 x Bombot & Hero Mechanist Class (fast) may become the go-to Explore Team.

It only drains mana, you should read the spell text again.
Fixed that for you.

btw - I’ve just been fixing a wordpress caching issue.
The image displaying for Bombot is incorrect & not using the latest data… his AoE damage actually scales of half magic (not full magic)
ALSO Good news @Tacet there is a small ninja buff going out to Carnex & Tankbot which got left off of today’s blog post!
- Carnex: His Armor gain has been increased from +3 to +8
- Tankbot: Has had his Fast trait removed, and Reinforced now moves down to second place, with Stoneskin added in 3rd place for some extra Tankiness.
We’d actually like a bit of rework on these 2 guys, and while this buff won’t bring either into the late game meta, it should make them more relevant for early-to-mid game players.
Hey, don’t blame US… Sparkgrinder named him!
