Heroes: Ascended Mareeta Headlines New Thracia Heroes

More new Heroes from Thracia 776 will be arriving in the “New Heroes & Ascended Mareeta” summoning event, which starts on 18th March 2022 (UTC).

Note: You can check out the Japanese version of this trailer here.

The featured Heroes are August, Galzus, Karin and Ascended Mareeta.

Additionally, Salem: Dark Sage will be available from the next Grand Hero Battle.

(By the way, it was expected that this month’s New Heroes would be from Thracia, after an unused music sample from the 5th Anniversary soundtrack was discovered.)

At the start of combat, if unit’s Special is ready and unit’s Spd > foe’s Spd, reduces damage from attacks during combat by percentage = difference between stats x 3 (max 30%). (Damage-reduction effects above are considered non-Special effects, so skills like Deadeye still apply.)
