How much p2w is in this?

You can get everything just by playing the game, it's much slower than normal however it can mostly be done. I'd recommend the summoners pass, it's 9.99 a month gives you some extra items just for playing, and gives you double xp in certain dungeons etc...

A lot. You need to summon LD 5* monster 16 times! You need a lot of currency to craft top items, and to master all the crafts before it.

Well if you want to know its very high if you where to equal f2p to whale ratio. Whales will have everything maxed out and power levels about up 800k-1mil since they can basically upgrade crafting and monsters in a single hour if they choose too. Crafting in this game is needed late game if you want to increase your plvl and for fp2 its a heavy grind getting all the mats where a whale can just buy them out right. Now the thing with monsters is yes 5* are cool, but are not always the strongest either since their upgrade time frame is very long and expensive and some whales don't bother with it since there are great 4* and 3* even that do just as well as a 5* upgraded. If you don't believe watch some of the people who do the daily boss fights in the world they have extreme plvl if you don't believe me.

Also the account level thing is pretty hard core too it can give your summoner up too 150k plvl when fully maxed out and that is also a whale mechanic.

idk if I got lucky but I pulled 4 5 stars in the first 3 hours of logging onto the game. Can´t be that rare for now.

It's pay2win for the pvp, but i never understood why they even bother doing PVP in automated p2w games. PVP normally should involve some form of competitive gameplay, this has none.

It is extremely p2w, avoid.

it has pay2win mechanics especially in pvp since people who spend will obviously get stronger, apart from that everything the others in this discussion said is plain wrong. Im f2p and nearing 170k power on my main unit (account level 53). For everything PVE certainly f2p friendly. I even manage to scrape out top 5 as f2p on arena. I started late too and missed out some good events

This game is EXTREME p2w, unless you are going to dump hundreds of dollar don't bother.

In 866 hours I've not pulled out a credit card. My power is approaching 315k and I have no issue with any content other than PvP, as others have commented. I don't know why you'd ever bother with PvP in a gacha game, though. You can very easily increase your power every day by simply doing your dailies, and even more so if you're willing to put in the time (as with any MMO) towards grinding. Everything you can spend money on outside of cosmetics just reduces the grind which is, in my opinion, not much of a grind especially considering auto battle.

However, I will say that if you are impatient, have poor impulse control, or a gambling problem you shouldn't play the game. The prices for packages are absolutely overpriced and you will do significant harm to yourself and loved ones. P2W, though? Only for PvP, imho.

Edit: Added P2W for PvP because, yeah, that's true.

by now you should've seen enough from the answers you've got. Just like in diablo immortal, those who defend the game says you can do the entire PVE content but the pvp will crash your soul and as always none of those have 50% of the CP that whales have even those super non-lifers who gave up of their lifes to play 16/20h every day for months

if this is p2w then what is diablo immortal???
I mean almost everything is doable in the game, ofcourse the whales progress much faster than f2p but thats life i guess? They support the game in real money so we can enjoy the game for free.

[Magpie]

Summoners War has always been one of the most free to play friendly games, Obviously that changes if you want to be Rank 1, but to play and collect you can do it all for free, it just lasts longer.

Good now you just gotta do it another 16 times for each hero to get the max skills, levels and awakenings.

Describe the difference between spending nothing and spending something and what would incentivize you to spend money on power.

[Antiga]

The fact you need to ask this should be answer enough.


When looking at the store page for this game all I can think is "I might have enjoyed this 25 yrs back." As it does nothing any other game hasn't done for the past 25 years.

Generic is the name of the game, the game that can only be won by paying.
