Misty, the potion witch — the official character announcement

A week after the count, the apprentice: the XP Hero team unveiled Misty — a Mythic, wand-proficiency witch whose every skill cast is a literal coin flip: the potion works (speed buffs for her, and later her whole team) or it explodes in the enemy's face. Where Vlad carried a rarity name the data had never seen, Misty slots into a ceiling the ladder already knows: Mythic, rank 7 of 9. Announcement verbatim — and as of Version 27.0.0, every number below is pulled from the shipped tables, not predicted.

Update, October 24 — the numbers are in

Version 27.0.0 shipped this morning and the sweep flipped: Misty is in the roster as the 4th wand carrier, runes and all. The headline is how literally the announcement was written:

50%/50%the coin flip in "SkillSubData" — the announced 50/50 is literal
20/19/18sskill cooldowns by tier, tier 3 the AoE upgrade
×13.5tier-3 skill DPS multiplier (×3.5 / ×7.5 / ×13.5)
6★+tier 3: the buff targets "yourself and nearby allies" — as announced
What her tables look like: the 50/50 ships as literal 0.5/0.5 values in SkillSubData rows "1000601–1000609" — no weight table, no per-level drift. The buff stack is +30% move speed for 5 sec, and the explosion scales ×0.6 → ×0.9 → ×1.5 with tier. Her three runes ship as rows "44–46" — "Giant Potion" was renamed to Growth Potion in the official locale, and her revive rune's per-level growth lives in the new RuneUniqueOptionSubSkillData table (1% HP per level). Full kit breakdown and the Version 27 sweep in the Version 27 post. The prediction section below stays up as a receipt — it called almost all of this.

The announcement, verbatim

Miles — official Discord, yesterday, 05:23

🧪 New Character: Misty
Mythic | Proficiency: Wand

An apprentice witch roaming the world in search of rare herbs.
She has yet to master powerful magic, but has a remarkable talent for creating unexpected effects with her unusual potion mixtures.

Unpredictable magic in a single sip!
What will happen this time?

[Exclusive Skill]
Drinks an unstable potion to unleash its magic.
• 50% chance to increase her movement speed and attack speed
  (also affects nearby allies at 6 stars and above)
• 50% chance for the potion to explode, damaging nearby enemies

[Runes]
• Giant Potion: Enlarges allies to increase their attack power, or shrinks enemies to reduce theirs.
• Schrödinger's Potion: Activates both the success and failure effects of her exclusive skill at once, with a greater attack speed boost and increased explosion bonus damage.
• Elixir: Guarantees her exclusive skill succeeds and revives fallen allies. Each ally can only be revived once.

A Mythic, not a new ceiling

Vlad's announcement led with a rarity name that never shipped — Misty's Mythic is rank 7 on the 9-rank ladder the site already tracks, the same tier the kit guide and endgame guide have costed and curve-matched all run. Her place on the ladder is known; only her numbers are pending:

RankNameMax level+DPS addDPS mult
7MythicGrade 21104,893.01,969.0
8ExoticGrade 213014,734.05,905.0
9EternalGrade 213046,882.017,715.0

Simply put: at launch, Misty will have less headroom than Exotic and Eternal kits, by the data's own math — until the ladder itself grows, which is exactly the door Vlad is holding open.

The kit, translated into expected numbers

Misty's skill is the game's first kit built on uncertainty — which, conveniently, is quantifiable:

The one to watch: the 50% chance on each effect is a probability table, not a fixed number — which means the game's own balance math can tune it per run (per rune, per star level) from LuckySpinRewardData-style probability. When Misty's tables land, the actual chance in the data will likely be a weight table, not a "50%" string — and our rune tooling will read it.

In the current build? A byte-level sweep

Same check as the Vlad post: a full search of every locale, hero and rune table in the shipped build for Misty's markers:

Misty, her art, her runes — all with a future build, byte-for-byte new. The 26.0.0 pattern, again.

The ship vehicle: Version 27 — delivered

The timing was the calendar from the Lucky Spin 1 pause: the update waiting in the wings is indeed the update that carried Vlad — and Misty shipped alongside him on October 24. Two new heroes in two announcements, exactly as hoped. The full decode of the new tables — the gacha box that rotates them both into the featured slot, the rune-row growth 43 → 49, the Halloween event and the Hero Collection System that arrived in the same build — is in the Version 27 post.

What we were watching for — resolved

Update complete — this post stays up as a receipt: a Mythic announcement where every tunable number in the kit shipped exactly as printed.
