Bandire posted:That's a pretty good idea. I've definitely spent more gems on keys at this point then the worst case 205 gems arena cost. If you already have all three troops leveled, it costs 1 gem to buy the team. That would be a cheap way to get duplicates to turn ultra-rares into epics after the patch, if you get tired of grinding gold with invasions.

All these hammers and antibrown troops might do something if people did, but all I have is a hammer (goblin shaman + 3 goblins) so everything looks like a brown and green nail anyway. I don't bother. My goblin massacre doesn't give a gently caress about anything other than the 25% chance to devour guy going on a very lucky streak (happens about once a month).

Not sure if there is a difference in the price if you have them at 15 instead of 10. This would be a lot less grindy if you could buy the troops before your eighth victory. I just tested it, and both retiring and losing twice did not offer me the chance to buy the troops I used.

I've just been starring an arena run, winning one match and retiring if I don't draw a Hobgoblin. It's break even on gold with dragon armor. I was curious if I had to finish the run to be allowed to buy it, so thanks for answering that question.

With all the team bonuses, that becomes a very fearsome quartet. Prior to 1.0.7 that was about as close as you could come to a "walk right in" team.

seems like a good defense team because they actually get attack and you'd probably get some wins from the other person just saying "gently caress this" and quitting out FYI team rockworm is still OP even below level 15, add a deep borer as an extra way to jumpstart things

Not sure if there is a difference in the price if you have them at 15 instead of 10. When was the last time anyone got a Hobgoblin or Goblin Rocketeer out of either a chest or Arena team? I have never seen either in all my time playing to date. As an aside, I've been holding onto my extra souls for a while. Maybe once the new patch drops and we have an idea of how valuable souls are in a post-crafting world, it would be worth it to level all of my rares and ultra-rares to level 10. Buying my choice of three ultra-rares for a single gem is a sweet deal; heck of a lot cheaper than buying a magic key, though I do miss out on the chance at an epic or legendary troop. Those last five levels are something like 70% of the leveling cost anyway, right? Edit: just ran the numbers because I was bored. The cost to go from level 1-10 is 38.3-38.5% of the total cost to go from 1-15. Yeah, agreement to 2 decimal places, for all five rarities.

I've had two or three hobgoblins in arena in the month or so that I've been playing. Not that I have the gems to buy them of course.

Just did an arena run to test. Common was level 15, rare and ultra-rare were level 10. Offered gem cost was 33 to buy all three. So there is an additional discount given if the troops are leveled all the way to 15. Balls. Edit: very next run I got a Hobgoblin. I swear to God I can influence random number generators by bitching in public. Grundulum fucked around with this message at 13:03 on Nov 27, 2015 |

I finally got a hobgoblin after about a dozen one done arena attempts. They were added to chests and arena maybe a month ago, but I had zero luck after maybe a couple hundred iron keys and several dozen magic keys.

Has the treasure hunt been rejiggered recently? I feel like lately green & red chests have skewed a lot more heavily towards souls/glory and away from gold/gems. At the very least my gem counts are increasingly inconsistent with a 25% chance out of a green chest.

So if I have enough honor, should I buy the weapon? It sounds decent enough, I'd just like to be sure before I spend it all. E: Okay, bought it.. Seems pretty crazy if you can get it charged. 4 Damage to all and 1 Magic for 16 Yellow/Brown? Seems pretty dumb actually. voodoo dog fucked around with this message at 23:37 on Nov 29, 2015 |

Edit: the Bear Totem is ridiculous. 5 damage, and increase magic by 1, which is boosted by green gems. Except the boost is to the magic gained, which means that all future damage is higher. All that for only 9 mana. Grundulum fucked around with this message at 23:57 on Nov 29, 2015 |

Always buy the honor rewards if you can afford them. It is worth getting multiples of particularly good troops as well. Honor rolls in pretty fast if you can hit rank one in PVP every week. Getting all your kingdoms leveled up to at least mid-level gets you a lot of honor from tribute too.

I was getting ready to boot someone from Gem Blossums due to inactivity, but I noticed something strange. They're showing 58 days since last login and no trophies earned this week, but they are PVP rank 9. How do you go up in PVP rank without doing a battle that would reset the login counter?

It keeps the last one you got, until you reset it (by logging in). That's why Monday mornings will have Rank 1s still even though its rolled over to a new event.

Wuntvor posted:So if I have enough honor, should I buy the weapon? It sounds decent enough, I'd just like to be sure before I spend it all. Well, it does get a bit stronger as your hero levels up and gains Magic; mine starts at 7 damage to all. Also, the Magic boost is pretty nice when combined with the right units. For instance, Sunwalker gets pretty darn good once she starts boosting your guys' stats by, like, 15 per skill activation.

I stumbled across this thread while looking to see if there were patch notes since Steam downloaded something larger than the usual weekly event update. They want to have the 1.08 patch out by mid-December or before Apple's holiday update deadline. This is also interesting:quote:We're planning some blogs & possibly a video before 1.0.8 comes out.

This is pretty fun, although I don't have enough gold to play any modes right now. I tried out the PvP based on the OP's advice, but it matched me with someone way higher level and I got destroyed. Would appreciate a guild invite - code is TRETIAK.

On the ps4 version our bimonthly weapon is the skulldagger 12 brown 3 damage to top 2 boosted by skulls so my to go team has been 2 rock worms...a poo poo, warlock? The guys that make more skulls, and my hero. I've run into a surprising amount of under lvl 50 folk with lvl 15 legendaries and epics, so they kill me off before i poo poo brown and skulls everywhere, but I guess it's a good sign that people are spending money on it. Shoutout to our goon guild which has managed to stay around 45th place on the trophy board!

It's because rockworms are still OP, particularly after the patch. It's fun using them for a while, but they still take a while to whittle down the enemy.

I can't take all the brown, red, and blue gems. A couple red/blue matches and the brownsplosion starts and never ends. If they weren't so tanky with the bonuses it wouldn't be as bad but the amount of extra hp they get is too much.
