Crush the Lord of Light for Soul Fragments to earn a guaranteed 4⭐ character!

From now until August 15th, 5 PM PT, each battle in the Lord of Light dungeons has a chance of dropping Procyon, Cosmic Wolf Soul Fragments. Collect 200 and you can redeem them in the Book of Souls’ Fragments screen for your very own 4⭐ Procyon, Cosmic Wolf!

The Procyon, Cosmic Wolf joins the cast as a new 4⭐ Gunner in Legacy of the Beast. This loyal single target attacker can Steal 1 Power per hit while not waking enemies affected by Sleep or Perfect Sleep. Procyon can also passively Cleanse all allies, grant a Random Offensive Effect, and has a 50% Chance to Cleanse Negative Effects from self and Heal when he takes damage!

Normally, when the fragments drop, you’ll earn 5 or 10 fragments, but if you’re lucky, you could earn 50 fragments from one battle, so don’t be afraid of that 200 requirement! Additionally, you can earn as many Procyon, Cosmic Wolf Souls as you can collect the fragments for, so feel free to grab some extras for your next big Sacrifice!

We don't need new toons, we need to power up the old ones!

Sirius and Procyon are two of the three stars making up the Winter Triangle (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter_Triangle). Betelgeuse is the third and hopefully will be added as a character soon.

But, more importantly, I'd love to see Vega from the Summer Triangle. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summer_Triangle)

Thanks druid for sharing this! I am not familiar with these things, but it was nice to read!

Apart from that, it is a more or less standard LoL event. As the featured characters aren't that good usually, it is more important what we can trade for the frags. This time no Talisman set, but more cosmic evo material, which is fine. And even more trades for the regular souls. T1 evos are a good decision, a total of 4 is not that good :)
Thos who need FC, IC or SS will also be happy - so I think the event is fine!

Procyon can also passively Cleanse all allies, grant a Random Offensive Effect, and has a 50% Chance to Cleanse Negative Effects from self and Heal when he takes damage!


His passive states cleansing all allies, including silver effects.

As far as I've tested, he only cleanses himself when taking damage, no allies got cleansed; neither red nor silver effects...

Is it a bug? Anybody else experiencing this?

Thanks!

[Muzzleloader]

His passive only happens if dioscuri from castor or pollux is active or dog star passive from? Is present.

[Natasmai]

the passive is very poorly worded and it is unclear what it does.

"50% chance to CLEANSE negative effects from self and heal for 20% of your MAX HP when you take damage"

This is all applicable only to the Procyon, not allies. It only triggers when he takes damage, and it doesnt mention silver effects, so shouldnt cleanse silvers from itself.

"CLEANSE all allies, including silver effects and grants a random offensive effect to any ally with the Dioscuri or Dog Star passive when you take damage"

To me, this says all allies get cleansed (including silvers) whenever Procyon takes damage. If so, then this would seem to not work on itself, else why would the first 50% effect even matter? It also doesnt seem to apply only to gemini or dogstar characters. The way I read this, the random offensive buff should only apply to the gemini and Sirius, but the CLEANSE effect should just apply to all allies every time he takes damage (except himself? because why have a 50% to cleanse if you have a guaranteed cleanse anyway?)


They are really struggling lately with their descriptions and explanations of abilities.

[Blade]

lately?

This is the case since the beginning, it is just more prominent due to the many new characters. There used to be a colour code for scaling dependencies - not always. Some special buffs/debuffs are explained, but not everywhere they show up. But yes, these descriptions of skills nowadays are more complicated than in the easy early days with all that "does that to self, this and that to all others or allies (including self or not, limited rounds or not), but only on mondays and if it rains etc."

Honestly I am pretty lost recently. There have been times where I knew all skills from all characters. I think I lost it around the time where the banshees were introduced. No way to keep up with that if you have limited time and don't want to see the game as the most important thing. I usually stick to a rather small group of (mostly older) characters where I know what they do.

[URock]

Doesn't matter, because this is a useless toon as so many others...

That is exactly how I deciphered it, but I'm not a native speaker so I'd rather ask...

Could be fun on defensive when you need to avoid hitting him or have to hit him first with then damage to all allies toons.

He needs to earn his 4 stars.

[Muzzleloader]

I read it that it cleanses and gives a beneficial buff to any ally that has dioscuri or dogstar passive, not all allies if it is present on any toon. I believe there is another toon beside castor and pollux with dioscuri passive. I dont have Sirius so I dont know what that passive does.

[scott-5496]

Sirius has the dogstar and the two gemini dudes have the dio(RIP RJD)scuri - so some decent synergy with them. Might be a decent team for gauntlet - couple of wolves and gemini.

I agree with Natasmai, it says cleanse silver from all allies. It seems to good to be true, but inflicting "silver" and cleansing silver is the name of the game nowadays. I've been wondering when a cleanse or no silver passive or talisman set would happen. Charlotte is the only one, unless you put Serinity talis on every toon.
This cleanse all silver would be nice.... but like I said, too good to be true.
I came on here to see if anyone had tested this toon. Navigator/NF is infamous for being deceptive with descriptions or releasing toons & talis that don't do as promised.
I've got a list of so many bugs, but just don't want to waste any more of my life emailing support for nothing. Arena is such a joke.... I've been around 70 -78th place in Arena for days, just play 1 battle a day for daily achievement. I haven't been attacked in over 2 days.... apparently I'm not the only one sick of the Arena BS!

[Amarthir]

Probably the first event I ever grinded out 3 whole Lilith souls from just leveling up my sacrifice fodder. Looking forward to hopefully another good sac event this evening.

[Muzzleloader]

I wish we would have another heartfest or pumkin patch sacathon.

[scott-5496]

It would be nice to have a great sac event but not so sure the devs have that in them at the moment. It is just super quiet this month - less event has been nice for a change for sure btu it has been a little quiet form them - maybe the Q&A was enough for them! LOL. I just hope we see some moves to het something really decent on the go as these last few weeks have been poor - in fact most of the year has just been a bit meh for me.

[GrimDusk]

I do believe Procyon’s passive is bugged; he’s only doing the effects that apply to him. His teammates aren’t being cleansed or healed.

[Muzzleloader]

Does one of your allies have dioscuri or dogstar passive?

[GrimDusk]

No but the passive states that it cleanses allies and grants offensive effects to the Dioscuri or Dog Star passives.

[Muzzleloader]

That's not how I read it. It is written kind of ambiguous, so there may be interpretations of the actual buffs given.

It should read cleanses all allies, including silver effects when you take damage. Gives any ally with dioscuri or dogstar passives random offensive buffs when damage is taken. Both statements shouldnt be in the same sentence then there wouldnt be any misunderstanding in the wording.

[GrimDusk]

God damn these vague descriptions.

[H3lls4ng3l]

I've been testing against my defense on the arena, and it seems that if the dog is the only one on the team, no allies will be cleansed from his passive. But if there is at least one of the twins with the discouri passive then all allies will be cleansed when the dog takes damage. Seems weird that there needs to be at least one allie with the discouri passive in order for the passive to be applied to the rest of allies. I will try to attach 2 videos to prove my point.

Either youtube deleted / blocked these videos or they are set to private because they are not available (at least for me).

Thanks for pointing it out, I had set them to private instead of hidden, should be ok now, my bad

[Bakura]

@ H3lls4ng3l
Good job, thanks for testing that out.
The description is very deceiving though.
To pair Procyon w/ Sirius is the only way this passive would be worth much. The "twins" are useless IMO.
