I’m assuming they will be in Event chests initially like they were on PC. While I spend my Keys, I’m stockpiling my Glory and Gems until we learn how the upcoming Troop rush will go down

I probably won’t use any of the Horsemen other than a themed Defense team, so their utility is a non-factor. I’m a collector first and foremost, I want all Troops, all Mythic, all Traited.

EDIT: I was wrong, Mythics never touch Event chests

Famine doesnt do it for me personally. Looks like a great card for defence but I need to emphasise cards I would actually use… even if they are less effective

Could require an extreme amount of event keys to unlock (relative to a legendary)

Monday and Tuesday are the days the Guild dumps their Gold into Contribution. We then generally save up all week for the next dump. Since half of us Contribute 1 million or more, big amount of Keys/Gems at once

Hold on I’m going to take my post down because (even though I typed it) I see the way it comes off and that’s not the message I want to put out. Will edit here.

Yeah every guild I know does that, but at 1 million a person that’s kind of crazy. I was just asking because there is a gold exploit and some people are doing it and not even realizing it. Besides literally only the top best guilds on pc are able to do a million each player in gold. It just seems strange. (again not saying your guild isn’t hardcore or dedicated because I know they are.) Otherwise congrats on your guild’s great success! 🙂

We only have a main one, no sister Guild (yet)

I took no offense to anything, so no worries.

I cannot speak for others but I have resorted to the Gold exploit on weeks I barely play to satisfy my Guild’s requirements

Yeah like I said the devs know about it and I’ve heard it’s been around almost since the game came out. Kind of doubt it, but it’s what I’ve heard. Let’s just hope they get it fixed at some point. As said above though, congrats to you and your guild on the great success!

I expect it to be gone when the PvP is updated, but will mostly be replaced by the better rewards.

I’m in the #2 guild on PS4, but Talia is in the only guild that I’m aware of that is truly hardcore. Our weekly minimums are one third of theirs and I would guess that relatively few of us would consistently put up 300 trophies and 300k gold per week. I know I couldn’t, but am thankful for those that do. I don’t think I’ve said any more than could be picked up from our recruiting thread, but I will leave it there in any case.
