Additional 10x Event – Vulkanos Fumor
Alongside the previously announced 2x Ancient Shard Event that will run this weekend as part of the Champion Chase Tournament, for the Halloween Fusion of Gretel, Plarium has now announced we will also get a 10x Event from Ancient Shards for the newly added Faction Unity Champion from the Demonspawn, Vulkanos Fumor.

Is Vulkanos Fumor worth going for?
The Demonspawn are one of the strongest factions in the game and Vulkanos Fumor, the new Demonspawn Faction Unity champion, lives up to that fiery reputation.
Vulkanos is extremely powerful in the arena, able to rip through enemy teams who apply a lot of buffs or Turn Meter boosting with his irresistible and unblockable HP Burn and HP Burn Activation effects from his passive. You’ll want the Incinerate blessing for maximum effect. On top of this, he can ramp up to 100% Ignore Defence with his passives and will even Block Revive any enemy who dies while under HP Burn.
He’s great at Hydra as well. Players will find his passive extremely helpful against freshly respawned heads or against Poison Cloud, since those buffs can also trigger HP Burns from his passive.
The biggest downside for Vulkanos is–much like all the Faction Unity champions–being reliant on his faction to get his full benefit. If you have top-tier Demonspawn, like the mythicals, Duchess Lilitu, Authoratrix Lamasu, and so on, he will be extremely strong on your account.
