Hi PigeonBreak.

Just wondering but were those shepherds based off 5 copies or 16 total copies of shepherds?

Also, I'm not actually sure if the stages inbetween are really that high of a gain in terms of stats. Stage 0 Shepherd has 1600 atk/def/soldiers where as intermediate stages have a base of 1848. I can't be sure of the stages past stage 2 since I don't know if you rushed 5 shepherds into an HR but from between stage 0 and stage 1, which uses 2 stage 0 shepherds we see this.

2008/2008 (stage 1) - Evolved stats

1848/1848 (Stage 1) - Base stats

Difference of the 2: 2008 - 1848 = 160.

I'm not great with card math to be honest but it seems to have taken 10% of the previous cards stats used if we consider the base stats of material cards.

The HN of shepherd also has a base of 1760/1760 (10% of the original N) making it dramatically weaker at the start versus the stages 1 through 3 (1848/1848 base) but it's countered by having an additional 10 levels, probably.
