e:VVV sweet, didn't realize I was in the running. My invite code is Clarion2

The game is telling me "Fenrir 26" and "Clarion2" don't exist. Can someone else in Gem Boiz try inviting them to make sure I'm not crazy?

You guys might want to post screenshots of your invite codes. You'll also need to quit your current guilds if you haven't already.

Fenrir_26 exists and was invited. Clarion_2 exists but was in another castleguild.

If Fenrir_26 isn't a goon we'll just have to kick them.

I'm running TAVB as my PVP team for offense but it sucks as a defense team because the computer doesn't know how to play it.

I have the following legendary cards, most are not leveled or traited but I will work on that when I figure out what team to use.

Aborath
Autumnal imp
Behemoth
Borealis
Carnex
Couatl
Crimson Bat
Emperor Khorvash
Kruarg the Dread
Moloch
Orion
Shadow Dragon
The Silent One

What can I build with those and other lower rarity troops and/or weapons. I have Orb Weaver and Warlord classes maxed and the class weapons from them and it says I have 217 unique troops so I should have anything non-legendary/mythic that isn't above.

Disillusionist
Sep 19, 2007
Abhorath
Khorvash
Crimson Bat
Valkyrie

Once Khorvash is traited he should go in the lead spot, but Abhorath is pretty tanky without traits.

milward

I'll jump on the team build bandwagon since I am in the same situation.

TAVB is almost fully traited, just need some small greens for Treant since I was stupid and traited them away and that is doing fine in offence and explore but defence it is terrible.

So I am looking for a better PvP team if possible and a defence team.

I have

War

Autumnal Imp
Crimson Bat
Emperor Korvash*
Infernal King
Keeper of Souls
Kuarg the Dread
Moloch
Orion
Queen Mab
Sheggra
The Dragon Soul
The Silent One
Venoxia


It feels like Valk and Mab would play nice together or a dragon soul team with Venoxia/Sheggra maybe?

Disillusionist
Sep 19, 2007
Mab and Valkyrie do work nicely together. Honestly, with Valkyrie you can pick three other water troops (making sure Valkyrie isn't mana-blocked) and have a pretty good team.

I used:

Knight Coronet
Queen Mab
Valkyrie
Druid

for a long time. Khorvash is superior to Coronet but I didnt use him because he just feels cheap.

Oenis

Most PvP defense builds suck (don't sweat it, it's not that important anyways), your best bets are mana drain and true damage, which are both pretty good on defense. Any combination of Khorvash, Spirit Fox, Manticore, Crimson Bat, Knight Coronet, Astral Spirit and Queen Mab or Psion plus mana-fillers like Valkyrie, Soothsayer and Mercy will work, but unless they're fully traited you are not gonna win much.

i.e.

Khorvash
Valkyrie
Lady Anariel (she's actually pretty decent, too)
Spirit Fox

edit: Banner always red/yellow to fill up Valkyrie, maybe the Dragon Claw banner if you don't need Brown (and I guess you don't have Khorvash)

Also refer to this video for additional ideas, it has defense teams for all level ranges: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmQK9eQxxqo


edit2: Also finally a Whitehelm event! Been waiting to get Celestasia and Moloch (even though he's pretty outdated by now) forever. Took me only 20 event keys, too. One step closer to my ideal Dragon Soul pvp farming team.

Awesome thanks. I have Abhorath in the 1st position for now as he is max level but no traits. Korvash is not max level yet but has the first trait.



Anyone know if the guild already has say the red bonus from getting to level 12 and its active for 6 days will it stack another 6 days if you get it to 12 again?

He's good, but by the time the lizard is done farting flaming death over everything, the attack boost is pretty much unnecessary. Can anyone recommend a good red/white gem maker at UR or lower? I'm using Banshee for now.

Oenis

Hellcat does conversions to red (edit nvm he's epic too), Jarl does both yellow and red at legenday, Mercy is probably the best yellow creator but at epic. Alchemist does yellow conversions at rare.

edit: http://ashtender.com/gems/troops?filter=transform you can also search for create to find a few more. There's also Courage and Humility which are both good creators for their color.

So what do you do with gems after getting one of the 500 gem armors? Just gem keys?

You may want to get the other 500-gem armor eventually. Buy Dragon first to get your kingdoms to level 10, then buy Celestial for the soul bonus as you work on 1/3/5 stars of power, then switch back to Dragon for the end game.

Beyond that, slowly build up a buffer of 700 or so gems so that you can buy event keys if you ever really need them. Other than that, yeah, gem keys out the wazoo.

Also,

New kingdom coming soonTM.

Edit: "soonTM" apparently means "in the next two to three weeks". Also, it appears that spending keys doesn't have a confirmation screen. I just twitched and accidentally spent 30 event keys I was saving towards the new kingdom. poo poo.

Fun team time:

Soothsayer***
Valkyrie***
Justice
Queen Mab***

Use Valkyrie to set up a board with a reasonable amount of blues, cast Mab, and loop with Justice used on skulls to make things die, since you end up with upwards of +50 attack and health depending on the matchup. Even if Justice misses it's cast, since the enemy team is completely frozen most of the time, they can't take advantage of it. All around fun times.



e#1: Also new patch will probably have legendary tasks after you complete all normal ones (why did they implement the new guild system in the first place then?) and hero cosmetics.

e#2: Souls cap is going to be raised from 40 to 60, necromancy trait is going to increase that cap further, but reduced to 25% to compensate. Sound pretty good and will make getting more stars on kingdoms a little less painful.

Uh, you went radio silent for several days, and more people wanted into one of the goon guilds. We're at 30/30 again.

We do have someone with two weeks of inactivity (Bondski) who could be booted to make room for one of you. If Gem Boiz also has an opening, we can switch a guild member from Blossums to Boiz (or vice versa) to open up two slots in one of the guilds. Can someone in Gem Boiz comment?
