There's a new companion in town! Wheellock doubles the amount of Hero Points all of your Skylanders receive. Cost: 900 gems.

Also as expected there's a timed quest for the dark house that rewards an Undead Shrine and Volcanic Eruptor is officially added to the game.

I'd better be finding a "glitched" Hyde to afford the new companion and/or the Dark House to get the Undead Shrine (although I only have 1 Dark Skylander so not sure if it's really worth it, anyway, especially since I already have 2 undead shrines).

This is a similar pattern to the dragon lairs. Release at 1200, then the shrine quest, then on sale for 800.

Will it be on sale this week?

It's also weird how my dark skylanders are still getting their bonus even though the dark event is over. Maybe this is their bonus from now on......one can hope.

So, is Flynn completely obsolete now? Same energy cost, same gold and exp payout. Missions are shorter so there is some time savings. Cost = 3,000 gems

The new guy doubles all exp: missions, chests, sanctuaries, houses, invaders, etc. Cost = 900 gems.

Yeah but together you go uber fast in leveling. Then afterwards..........wait until the next level increase. Hopefully the devs do something with cool rewards/missions on the next level bump. Because getting a few gems doesn't gave that wow factor anymore.

I will get whichever one is on sale first, and maybe both. Level 16+ is going to be a real pain in the rear end without a lot of help.

I bought him this morning and it is a great addition. Doubles points even in totems!
First mission: 50 adventures + 5 sanctuaries = 10 gems. Very good deal.

I bought him to, and I must say the XP is piling up much better. I feel less snailish.

I snagged Flynn today since he is 50% off. My houses are supplying me with decent gems so I took the jump. I'm still not sure he is worth 1500, but I was playing with house money so the value becomes less relevant.

What turned me to Flynn was the idea that even at level 15, faster missions help move along quests and such.

I'll probably grab Wheel some time when he is on sale....though I want a Dark house so that one might go to which ever goes on sale first.

I did the same! Looking forward to Wheelock on sale too (but not before). Having both will be very nice.

I grabbed the half off Flynn as well. Was quite surprised that buying him resulted in no additional quest. Is there an additional quest when you purchase Wheellock?

Yeah, but I forgot what it is.

Looks like this was the mission. Looking forward to him going on sale...

I was planning on buying 2 shrines tomorrow bu I thought no, I will save and get wheel lock.

Well I sat down and did my sums and came up with the fact that to bring all my skylanders plus the 11 I do not have to level 15 I would get 457 gems.

Even at 450 gems I would be a long time breaking even.

I plan on buying shrines tomorrow over saving for Wheellock.
