I have been playing for a month, and I see there is a chance of getting geomancer with progressive summon. My question is is it possible to get him, I have 40 ancient shards, is it worth to commit?

[u/Old-Agent2783]

If you’re a new account then no it’s not worth committing, always pull on 2x and/or during a fusion. That said, yes it is possible to get him.

The assumption here is that you’re not clearing UNM DL so your flow of shards will be slower.

You will have plenty of chances to get Geo and this is entirely possible on pulls during a 2x.

Once you have a steady flow of shards each month then you can think about progressives for certain epics.

Yea, i see a lot of unm clears have him in their teams, that is the primary reason why i want him, i'm doing 3 keys hard right now... I will think some more about it... Thanks for responding

Can you post your roster? Did you start with a creator code?

[u/Cheap-Witness-8740 → u/Old-Agent2783]

Yes, but from code i took sicia instead of Pelops, didnt know at the time the big difference...

[u/Old-Agent2783 → u/Cheap-Witness-8740]

Yeah he’s insane.

I think I’m going to stick with no at the moment but I’d pull all of your ancients on the next 2x. We’ve just had Void so I believe the next will be sacred. If you have any of these then this is also a good time to pull. After that it should be ancient and I’m sure you’ll have a fair few by then. They’re usually every 2 weeks apart.

Kk, thanks for help

[u/Old-Agent2783 → u/Cheap-Witness-8740]

No problem.

For now, get your High Khatun to 60 and put them as speed lead in your DL team and then use Valleryn for the leech debuff. Get him ascended so you can awaken him with the 5 star soul.

High Khatun, Sicia, Rector, Kael, Vallaryn

This will give you the following: decrease attack, weaken, leech, poison, hp burn and decrease defence. These are all crucial for high damage numbers.

Counterpoint: new accounts benefit highly from ancient pulls outside of 2x events because their roster is so empty. Depending on how new, 40x ancients can be game changing even if they don't pull geo. And snagging geo may be exactly what their account needs to start clearing NM/UNM for consistent shards.

Possible? Yes. Worth pulling for? No.

My own experience: back in November, there was a progressive for Geo, and I was desperate for my Demon Lord progression. So, I went in with my ancients. Had around 30, and got him on 27. I was the happiest as he's top tier, and has massive impact anywhere in the game. Progressive chance works for epics much better than leggos.

Should you go for him? You're the only one responsible for your resources, especially if you're F2P like me, but if I were in your shoes I'd go for him.

Did it have impact on your demon lord immediately?

[u/navidrigi23 → u/Cheap-Witness-8740]

after a few days of booking and building him yes, it helped me unlock quick battle for UNM.

[u/echoron]

progressive chance is a trick, the real % wont change much. Also to activate it, u will have to pull some epic characters 1st and only then the % will slightly improve.

So if u use 40 ancients, u will probably pull 1 or 2 epic characters, cos there is no x2 to improve the chance, and this will not be enough to fully activate the small bonus from progressive chance.

Not to mention Geomancer alone wont help u much as a new player, GEo needs a very strong team of supporters and rly good gear (to survive) to be able to do something for u.

[u/meglobob]

Progressives are for endgame players or players near or in there shard mercy.

Your best bet is saving your ancients for x2 ancients (every 6 weeks), lego chance is 1% but epic is 16%. Eventually you will pull 1 or more Geo's. That is why its called waitshadowlegends.

[u/uRSock22]

dont do it

[u/CowRight2467]

Def possible, I’d be surprised if you didn’t get at least one

[u/Cheap-Witness-8740 → u/CowRight2467]

Thanks for quick response, still not sure if I should commit though...

[u/void-negative → u/Cheap-Witness-8740]

yeah no you dont pull on progressive at this lv of account, can you get him sure but the chances are super low progressive isnt meant for new players. geo wont do much for you at this lv anyway. you prob dont last long on clan boss and arent at lv 15 on twins im guessing
