Drez + Mirael Boss
Best Rewards to get
- 8x Red Emblem Chests + 30x Primordial Emblems = recommended.
- 8x Artifact Fragment Chest + 3x Red Emblem Chests If you are looking to max out Dura’s Call.
- 9x Poe Coins
- Rare cards If you are a new player and want more fodder heroes.
- 4x Twisted Essence (If you have core heroes maxed and want to compete in PvP).
- Alna/Khazard + 1 Red Emblem Chests + 30 Primordial Emblems. (If you need the last copy to get to ascended)
- Engraving Materials (If you don’t have anything else to focus on).
Rewards Priority Breakdown
- Red Emblems: The gold standard for event rewards and the resource most player would lack. Players should always prioritize this.
- Artifact Fragment Chest: Excellent for the value if you are in the late stage of the game!
- Twisted Essence: Pretty much the same value as always. Spenders with complete signature items should opt for these especially if competitive in PvP.
- Twin/Mortas/Mehira: They are a great choice if you want to get them to Elite+.
- Gold Emblems: The best value gold emblems have ever been so there is no better time to pick them up. That said, faction emblems are still more valuable.
- Rare cards: These are slightly better valued than faction emblems at about 2471 diamonds per 12 emblems (vs 2400). The decent choice actually.
- Poe Coins: 3000 PoE Coins is worth 1200-2100 diamonds while giving the equivalent of 4000 diamonds worth in Faction Emblems. Not worth it.
- Skin/Avatar: Up to you!
- Normal Faction Heroes: Before, heroes were alright if going for the last copy because you couldn’t reliably get them. However, with the hero choice release, these are terrible.
Note: A lot of people ask me why faction emblems are always recommended over Celepogeans. If we consider the existence of a pity timer, a Celepogean is worth roughly 38 Stargazer tickets or 19,000 diamonds. Since Celepopgeans are worth 120 Faction Emblems in most events, 120 Faction Emblems is worth 18,000 diamonds going by roamer prices. On the surface, it appears that the Celepogean is slightly more valuable (1000 diamonds more) but we have to consider how firstly, Stargazer tickets not only give you Celepogeans, but also other rewards which are easily worth more than 1000 diamonds over 38 pulls. Secondly, faction emblems are pegged to roamer which is the lowest they can be and it isn’t even that accessible. Lastly, faction emblems will generally have a greater impact on the player’s strength than a single copy of a Celepogean.
