Invincible: Guarding the Globe: Pull Séance Dog or Save for Halloween?

Save your recruitment currencies for the upcoming Halloween update instead of pulling for Séance Dog in Invincible: Guarding the Globe. Major seasonal events offer compounding returns through milestone reward tracks, exclusive event stores, and specialized currencies that standard off-week banners cannot match. Unless your account can immediately use a single copy of Séance Dog to cross a major rank milestone, banking your resources provides superior progression value.

The Problem With Pulling Séance Dog Before Halloween

Séance Dog provides valuable utility for Earth’s Defenders squads through team-wide buffs, disruption, and faction synergy. However, support heroes rely heavily on overall team scaling and high rank ascension to survive area-of-effect damage in difficult PvE campaign stages and GDA Ops.

Acquiring a single copy without the duplicates or food units needed to promote him through major rank thresholds does not meaningfully advance your squad. Pulling on standard off-week banners provides only base recruitment pulls and standard store tokens. In contrast, spending those same currencies during a major seasonal celebration simultaneously advances event-specific quest lines, earns milestone crates, and purchases gear or artifacts from temporary shops.

When to Make an Exception for Séance Dog

You should only spend resources on Séance Dog ahead of Halloween if you meet all three of the following conditions:

• An Immediate Rank Milestone: You already have the food and duplicate heroes ready, meaning exactly one additional Séance Dog immediately elevates him to a major rank threshold such as Epic or Legendary.
• Core Squad Placement: Séance Dog is an active member of your primary five-hero team rather than a secondary unit assigned to secondary GDA Ops.
• A Dedicated Resource Reserve: You have enough Gems and Hero Dossiers to acquire the copy while still retaining a reserve for the Halloween event.

If you fail to meet even one of these criteria, skip the banner. Unlocking an isolated copy that sits waiting for future rank-up materials stalls your account and deprives you of currency during higher-value event periods.

How to Prepare for the Halloween Event

If you are skipping the pre-event recruitment window, shift your daily routine into conservation mode until the holiday patch arrives:

1. Halt Recruitment Shop Refreshes: Stop spending Gems to cycle through the standard recruitment shop, even when elite heroes appear in standard slots.
2. Bank All Summon Passes: Accumulate both standard Hero Dossiers and Special Access Passes so you can deploy them directly into event-boosted banner pools.
3. Farm Promotion Materials in GDA Ops: Direct your operational energy toward stockpiling Hero XP, Hero Essence, and GDA Chips so any new characters unlocked during Halloween can be leveled immediately.
4. Limit Daily Gem Spending: Keep Gem expenditures strictly capped to mandatory checklist completions and high-efficiency stamina refreshes, preserving the rest of your balance for event-specific milestones.
