RVT posted:You're #18, we're only about 8 names down the list. Keep them builders working, we'll get to you soon. Thanks, I didn't realize that I was so far down on the list! Still having a blast with the game although my PH is only a 5. I finally have upgraded my Tavern enough, L5, so that I can send in a swarm of brutes and gunners. I just built a Voodoo Hut and have started playing around with witch doctors. I've been sending in one on my raids and he sometimes seem to keep the gunners alive a little longer. Going to keep upgrading!

I use Bombers a lot because they're hilarious to me. Nasty as hell when they concentrate on the right target, until their ADHD kicks in and you're screaming at them to stop running halfway across the map to blow up an outhouse. Juggernauts have their advantages -- stronger out of the gate than moderately upgraded Brutes, less team cost -- but you have to remember that they won't beeline for defenses like Brutes will. They'll cheerfully beat on a Guild Hall while a Bunker an inch away peppers them. At the moment I go 5 Brutes, 4 Jugs, then split the rest between Bombers and Gunners. Make a hole, send in the Brutes to clear out mortars, then spam.

If you're spending all that grog, might as well mix in a WitchDoctor once you get the first Guardian upgrade. That comp should be able to roll a lot of bases.

Anyone noticed that the Android version of this game seems to be always on, even if you quit the game? It loads instantly even after a proper quit out. I've noticed that my phone battery drains significantly faster if I don't manually force close the app after quitting.

What are the exact upgrades to skip for each troop type?

Zotix posted:What are the exact upgrades to skip for each troop type? Most important is WitchDoctor - Skip the +3 Toughness on the bottom branch of Voodoo Hut 1. Skip the +5 Toughness on the top branch of Voodoo Hut 3. Since the amount of Total Upgrades is what determines the grog/time cost, and it ramps way way up on a per-upgrade basis as you get closer to the max number (for WDs in particular), skipping these two upgrades will let you get The Guardian (VH3) which is a massive upgrade, and The Guardian II (VH4) which I assume is very good as well, while saving you the massive grog/time increases from the WD's "final" 2 upgrades. Maybe I can say that another way if that doesn't make sense. If this is all you skip, you're probably fine. Other troops: Priestess - I'd skip all of the top branch in VH3. Ghost Buster is not efficient on such an expensive troop, and Toughness upgrades aren't going to do much. Bombers - Don't skip anything prior to Academy 6. Bomber upgrades in Academy 1-5 are much better than 6-7. So, if you want to keep your Bombers a little cheaper, you can just stop upgrading them at the end. The reason skipping upgrades is so important for WD/Priestess, is that their best upgrades are at the end of their trees. Juggs - if you want you could skip the bottom branch in Academy 4-5 and/or the bottom branch in Academy 6-7. My Juggs are only level 14, so I'm not sure how brutally it ramps up at the end, so I'm not sure how many of these you really need to skip. Heavy Gunner - I'd definitely skip the +10 Toughness in the top branch at the beginning of Academy 5. Other than that it's hard to skip much until Academy 7. You need the Range upgrades, and the +30 Damage is really nice too. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have more questions.

You'll see a big change above 300 PR, and another big change above 400 PR. Just checked your layout. I really like it for PH4. 2poor is back to full for the moment. Will post when spots open up for the next group. RVT fucked around with this message at 02:37 on May 9, 2015 |

Related to that, LLJK is still a thriving and progressing bunch, so new guys should feel free to join and enjoy the perks and donations, and the guys waiting for a spot in 2poor shouldn't feel like they are missing much.

The only problem with this game that I seem to have is having problems remembering to do walls. By the time I notice i'm like "poo poo, my builders are busy again". E: Did it while I was thinking about it. dogstile fucked around with this message at 11:53 on May 11, 2015 |

As I'm sure you just noticed, the good thing about walls is that while they do require a builder and get expensive, they upgrade instantly.

They are also the only big gold sink. I haven't added it up in a spreadsheet, but it must be millions more grog with troop upgrades. I am sitting on a million gold, slowly upgrading my defenses.

I need some advice. 35 troop cost and I'm stuck looking for a good troop balance, I need to farm BP for Academy upgrades. What is a good brute/ gunner number? I'm great at raiding resources but judging which base I can destroy is different.

EzEight posted:I need some advice. I'd try 5/15 and see how that feels. Just attack a lot, and you'll get a feel for what you can handle. If you are getting lots of resources then you're fine. The BP from raiding is garbage. Keep your boat hitting fish, and your errands going and you'll get your bp. If you want easier bases, drop some PR. If you really want to farm bp through raids, drop to sub 50 and just drop a few buccs on fresh nubs like crazy. It's a super boring way to farm though.
