I’m currently monopolizing on this week’s bonuses and have the following build:

1. Ettin
2. Obsidian Golem
3. Stone Giant
4. Gob-Chomper

However, the synergies are poor. I think I need a mana color generator troop in there.

What team builds are recommended for this week, given I don’t own Gog and Gug?

Thanks!

Sheesh - there’s always _one_ troop I don’t have. This time it’s Queen Mab…

Krystenax\*\*\* / The Dragon Soul\*\*\* / Obsidian Golem\*\*\* / Sylvanimora\*\*\* … the team is pretty versatile. the third slot can have just about any troop swapped in and succeed.

It can be that way sometimes. Little by little you’ll build an arsenal. Jus make sure your in a guild that best suits you and you’ll grow fast.

I have been enjoying this team which is stupid powerful early- to mid-game and has a nifty theme

* * *

**Unicorn Banner**

Ettin  
Gorgotha  
Rock Spirit  
Lava Elemental

edit: And if you don’t have Gorgotha perhaps change banner and throw in Sunsail who is remarkably handy with it’s Stone Link Trait

Yup - as per usual, there’s always one troop I’m missing. In this case…Krystenax. I just counted up my unowned tr0ops and there is a total of 29 troops out of 300+ I still don’t own. Probably due to only playing GoW for 4-5 weeks… 🙂

Thanks KrudlerTheHorse. I have been keeping up to date with your cool YouTube videos and saw that build in your recent viedo. I will definitely give it a go, however, I was hoping for a build that used the new Obsidian Golem to get the traitstone bonuses.

Oh good point about the 2x Traitstone

How about

* * *

Ettin  
Obsidian Golem  
Sunsail / Gorgotha  
Laval Elemental / Sheggra

Its just one of many approaches 🙂

Excellent - exactly what I was after, and I have all those the troops!

Let me play around with all six and I’ll let you know my preferred combination - thanks!

I’ve been using Ettin / Obsidian Golem / Gorgotha / Sheggra. Playing tier II and III PvP battles and have lost one out of about 30.

Thanks again for the info.

P.S. Funnily enough, one of those battles was against a troop mix you recommended in one of this week’s video. You definitely have a following!
