I have played a few hours on the ps4 and still have not found the account section. They may have sandboxes the ps4 for now. Possibly due to whatever makes warthunder only crossplay from the ps4 but not the reverse. Or maybe I just haven't found it yet. :iiam:

Well, PS4 guild is up, PS4Goons . I left it open to join, figured i can prune the non goons later. Lvl 10 minimum to avoid spammers. Send a PSN msg to EffEmmEll if you join up so i know you're a goon.

Edit: Guild is now at 6/10 and closed to public. Post here or send me a msg on PSN with invite code. (So far its been cool late 20s stoner chat)

Do you ever earn armor/costumes just playing the campaign? If I felt like giving the devs some of my money for an awesome game are any of the bundles better than the others for value to money ratio? I'm on PS4 if that matters. I assume +souls would be the best armor to get?

CoffeeQaddaffi

+Gold/+Souls is best, since kingdoms are leveled with gold now. And Souls for your troop levels. XP is of almost tangential help, since you can get much more out of your fourth slot by using a troop instead of hero/weapon. Hero level gets you weapons, but that's about it other than a very vague gauge of player/team experience level.

Before the latest major patch, I would never really invade a 100+ level player because they would have all legends or something equally retarded. Now, I will still try to avoid all legendary teams but am more likely to give it a go since I have buckets of health to rely on (Team Gobbo Supremacy).

The $5 starter deal is the best way to give them money, if it is still available to you. I think it is only offered the first week of an account. You do not earn armor from the campaign, but you can earn gems from treasure maps, guild tasks, and kingdom tribute.

Barring that bundle, you want +gold armor. Gold controls pretty much everything in the game now. You can do arena for souls when you need to level troops.

Soooo, is it better to slowly level all your kingdoms at the same rate, or slowly level one kingdom to 10 and then another? I've got 2 at 10, and am not sure I'm spending my gold wisely.

I leveled all my kingdoms to Level 3, then started leveling individual ones to 10 for the stat boost bonuses.

Thinking about leveling them all to Level 5, just for the higher chance of multiple kingdom tributes. (Free gems/keys are always nice.)

From a purely mathematical standpoint, you are far better off upgrading every kingdom twice than getting a single kingdom to level 10. (0.97^19 < 0.99^18*0.9 -- you get tributes at almost twice the rate in the first case compared to the second.) It's also hella cheaper. What that analysis misses is that those two level 10 kingdoms give you a bonus during combat that your 19 level 2 kingdoms wouldn't.

I have all my stuff at level 4 now (*still* cheaper than getting one kingdom to 10). Will probably focus on getting the four +attack kingdoms to level 10 next.

Good info. I've pushed all but a couple to 4 now; once they're all there I'll get two more to 10. Man the pvp was sweet today; almost every fight was 750-1000 gold x 2.

Do you have Karakoth at 10? That is probably the best kingdom to max first for the +1 magic. I'm working on the +attack kingdoms now. I don't think there are enough to get my Hobgoblin to 20 attack. Wish I could pull a rocket.

Grundulum
Feb 28, 2006
Yeah, I have Karakoth and one of the +attack kingdoms at level 10. And half of the remaining 17 kingdoms are at level 5 or 6; I just made a push recently to get everything to at least level 4.

How are you guys getting enough gold to level up kingdoms? Endless PvP grinding? I just played for three hours (Rank 15 -> 1) and got about 10k gold. That's such an insignificant amount compared to upgrade costs.

Grundulum
Feb 28, 2006
Well, I've been playing this game for months now. Karakoth went from 2 to 10 during a double-gold weekend event with +50% gold/+100% souls armor (bought when souls were still the end-game currency :argh:). And that still required me to burn through about 15-20 treasure maps at double gold earnings.

depends on how high you want your kingdoms to go; upper levels are most definitely endless grinding, but that's not really new considering that you'd have to level all troops of that kingdom to 15 and do all the challenges before the change anyway

hope for a double gold weekend sometime and get a +gold armor

It's actually pretty amazing how quickly the slime's stats can increase, since it can buff its own Magic stat. It starts at 6, but soon you'll be buffing for 12, then 24, then 48, 96, 192...

(All the stats cap at 1000, though.)

I always buy whatever the weekly reward is and I never use them, but a blue/green character that generates purple is exactly what I was looking for; Keeper of Souls has never been this busy. The random skill boost is completely useless, though.

I've been rocking an all goblin team; Goblin, Boar Rider, Goblin Shaman and Goblin King, the +4 Attack and +10 life is unstoppable even with some bad luck. I have been trying to replace the Shaman with the Green Slime since he only rarely comes into play and I am liking it. All those purple's get my Boar Rider several extra turns. I'm mowing through half the enemy team in one turn.

A few more noob questions, how do I use treasure maps? Pretty sure I've gotten two of them and I don't see a place to use them.

Also really confused by the Kingdom mana bonuses... Does it not count towards campaign quests or does it only count towards creatures from that kingdom? The cards I'm running mostly revolve around Sacred Guardian and it seems to get +1 to brown mana no matter what I do and if I select a kingdom as home that has +1 yellow mana for example it still only gets +1 to brown mana.

You need to finish the Broken Spire kingdom questline then start the Zhul'kari quest to use treasure maps. The mana bonus is tied to your team's banner now, not the home kingdom. You can change the banner under the Bonuses tab of the Troop teambuilder thing.

I don't know if the PS4 version is different or what but I don't even see a place to change banners. Finished Broken Spire and Zhul'Kari and lost my 3 treasure maps, including the one I got while doing Zhul'Kari. Don't know if it's bugged or what :smith:. I had earned 3, but says I have zero even though I've never used a treasure map.

I also have a challenge that says "Earn a new weapon" and I've got 4-5 and it still not completed.

Yeah there's definitely some bugs on the ps4 version. I too am stuck on the weapon challenge. The worst thing I've run into though is an arena bug. If you go back to change towns right after you're done picking/ordering, itll repick your choices. Ask me about winning 5 arena games with 2 and a half colors. Also i thought the banners were just what you switch between with r1 and l1 before a fight

Sounds like the PS4 version might not have the patch 1.06 revamp. Maybe that's why PS4 people cannot join guilds from other platforms. I would download it to check, but I would never play the PS4 version since the only time I play the game is on a second screen while watching tv.
