With 14 defenders in Goonamancers no pubbie guild are gonna be stealing anything. If you haven't already, set a defender team. Mages are the best choice as you can grind down the attackers.

We are still getting some loot from them and we have so many keys it doesn't matter much unless keys become scarce later on. E: actually 1000-1200 raw arc per 10 keys means 120 arc per 10 keys, which is around 4-5 arc per person per 10 keys If we got full clears it would be double that? So 10 arc per person for a raid?

We are actually gaining arc most guilds are dead and have little to no defence. With a 15 member defence we are less likely to lose arc. I say just go for it

Also, not sure if it's been mentioned, but raid teams cap at level 20. So level your defense team to 20, and then you can just leave them there.

The main issue is monster star level, at lv 20 the mage with 7 stars will still have better stats to waste your entire team. This is the stupid part the devs forgot about.

so uh blackwood hound? the light assassin? dude can easily get 100% crit on his first turn if you're lucky with crit gems, which makes 3 starring most things a walk in the park

So, are the Halloween monsters actually in the summon pool yet? I'm sitting on some gems because I love me some Halloween and want to get some themed monsters, but all I'm seeing on the list are the same handful like Jenny and Eustace.

Note that you will have to spend some Arc if you want higher stars. After clearing stage 10, 15, 20 you get 1 'Horde' added to the summoning pool. At those stages you can spend Arc to capture one copy and you still get it added to your summon pool. You can get a total of 6 copies if you spend arc. 3 capture and 3 summon pool. Edit:self promo IGN:Xianxia To Goonamancer members my Helle has Reapers Scythe coupled with her skill if you stall with her in the earlier stages she can grow up to 1500+hp, 1000+Atk and heal after every attack. Easily surviving the counters and steamrolling Horde even with its 25% hp regen. EzEight fucked around with this message at 13:48 on Oct 21, 2016 |

that reminds me, i wish they'd add a friends list to this game sooner rather then later, because that helle owns i have a pretty solid nidhogg with a 15% self heal every turn and the taunt skill, he can comfortably tank anything not water-based, and even then you'd just need to babysit him a bit, but sadly its only for lowtaxed

Is progress against a defender persistent in a raid? Someone started a raid in Lowtaxed, and I took out one team, then like 90% of another, I'm just curious if that second team remains really weak now or if that second fight was a waste. Also I really wish I had the dragon healer (Dreq maybe?). I think it was someone in the syndicates that I borrowed for a story fight, he has the compass artifact that heals every turn and man that thing was basically immortal and healing my whole team every turn

I don't like how enemy follow on waves get to attack first. I feel like the player should keep the initiative. Especially since we are limited to four monsters.

If you're in Goonamancer and a few goons are active in chat go ahead and start a raid. This is a mobile game and its not going to be easy to coordinate timezones. With the way guild battles are its going to be unfair/dumb either way so my as well earn some Arc from it. Beating one noob defender gives you a few thousand Arc. Thats a profit compared to stockpiling keys. With 2 days till Arc payday go nuts and have fun while guild battles are still somewhat unbalanced. Screwing both parties over etc. ALSO PLEASE DONATE COINS OUR NEXT LEVEL PERK IS 20% ARC CONVERSION. Edit:guild name correction

I accidentally discovered something that makes wave transition a bit easier. Helle's double strike skill carries over. If you kill the last defender with her first attack, your second is ready to go after the be wave spawns BEFORE they can attack. I can only assume this is true for all double strike skills.

My Helle is weak. Well, under evolved. That's the biggest problem with me right now. I think Duul, Sam Hain and Kid Tut are the only ones I have at 4stars, everyone else is 3 tops. I really need more units, but I'm trying to stock the Halloween cards first. And I don't think that's even happening because I can't 3 star the stages.
