Devil Dino advice

So this week I got enough covers to max and champ Devil Dino. (Wo0t.. I know right)

So now I look at his sell price and it's almost 180k iso and 5000hp.
My big question is since he is only buffed once a year and his covers are likewise only once per year... do I cash in and run to the bank laughing?

Thoughts?

    Depends on if you feel like recovering him next year or not. At the end of the day, you sunk about 310k Iso to max him (or something like that) so you're already losing cost on Iso. How desperately do you need that slot and hp?

    (Personally I'm saving mine)

    My dino is my highest level character and I can't imagine a situation where I would dump mine. The character is still a lot of fun to play (with Carnage). That being said, if you really need the slot for something better, I can't argue with that. icon_lol.gif

    Haha could get another 10pk of anniversary tokens. There are 3 legendary tokens left and 12 more 2*stars I can still pull with 57/100 pulled. Oh and some actual usefully stuff too haha

    I sold my champed Dino and do not regret it at all. It's a joke character, not boosted (read 98% of the time) she is not very good.

    She has one use and its this period of the year and its done, sell sell sell!

    I've been using a 270 Dino since the first year. Doesn't have the most damage but does have a lot of HPs which is especially good when paired with lighter weight characters. As fun as he was during the event I like his old powers better though. Low tile powers definitely have their own uses.

    I had a middling one (max cover, 150). It sold for 18000 and 2k HP. Gladly took it.

    With the vault and other rewards, I have a max covered, level 82 one now.

    If you have 3 covers (at least two in one color), you can level to just over level 86 and sell for 5000iso and 1k HP. I also did this once.

    It all depends on how you like to play.

    Dino is an outlier. He doesn't appear as an essential and his events come once a year. He's also not exactly competitive except under extreme niche scenarios, and even that's been diluted by the "buff".

    He won't help you with your game in any way (except for the aforementioned niche). He's bragging rights. Trot him out in early PvP and listen to the world chuckle. But since he is so rare, very few players have him covered, much less champed.

    If you're ultra-competitive, ditch him and use the rewards to build something that matters. If you're into collection, he's the shiniest trophy.

    Is the sell price accurate? 180k ISO and 5k HP is a lot more than other similarly leveled champs offer.

    When upgrading Dino levels with ISO the amounts shown were wonky.

    Is there someone that actually sold a champed Dino who could comment on what they really received.

    Its the Post Buff increase...thats why DD sell back price is probably more.

    He was recently changed so they offer a higher sale price for a limited time. If you are considering selling, do it now. It may be gone after the next update.

    I have a somewhat related problem:
    This anniversary allowed me to cover max him (my first cover maxed 4* icon_rolleyes.gif ) and then I got three additional covers.
    Now at the moment, my Dino sits at Level 160.
    I do not plan to sell him, despite the increased price being tempting.

    But I wonder whether it is worth to pour Iso in and champ him, or rather sell the surplus covers and save my Iso for the upcoming 4* transition (see also this thread)

    Thoughts?
