I don’t think grinding for the mana surge gnomes outside of vault weekends is viable. You’re better of grinding for something else and if you get a gnome it’s a bonus point to that grind ---

I’m also upgrading the classes, it gives me also traitstones and a medal every now and then, but you are right, if I wouldn’t need any of those anymore, I wouldn’t most likely be doing it. ---

In other “news” - these are my current unowned troops - I feel like I’ve got something to aim for again and I like it! I think it’ll take a while but I’m genuinely good with that: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/f/3/f345e85312141178d6312ab70f2d456fbc4c15aa.jpeg) ---

I also have only one of those new gnomes, but good thing I don’t really need them! Just made some comfort food before going back to Dark court! @Eika I did use the same team as you, the order of the troops was a bit different, I’ll try the next 3 runs with your build! ---

Just make sure that u always have a mana drain troop up and that Dark Knight have barrier on. Also dont use your other troops on CPU first troops, only use Dark Knight draining their mana. ---

It’s midnight, so I didn’t have to stay up late. Luckily my Kelpie was hungry in the last match, because I only had those two and some fluffy lyca lion who went to sleep very early! 🙃 ![Screenshot_20210731-233856](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/a/3/a35ea84866f546b56cff8f6a3dad1cac3ed2e0d1.jpeg) ---

The negative is here for a good reason. Lycanthropy deserves all its negative press. It has made clean delve runs impossible. That alone deserves a negative response. Its awful gaming. It is negative gaming. ---

Extremely well said! I completely agree with your post as a long time player myself I’ve noticed the level of negativity on the rise which is truly a shame. I love the fact that after 5 yr of playing the game I haven’t mastered it that the game is constantly evolving. Our there aspects of the game that Irk me of course but getting belligerent about it doesn’t help anyone. ---

Totally agree - and I thought @ctenn2ls was completely on the ball with the post too. I’m like you, long time player and still learning and evolving and discovering new team combos from other players all the time. I’m putting serious effort into the weekly Faction events now to get my pets (and kingdoms) up, so still plenty to keep me busy! ---

I mean, obviously some only have GoW in their life and depends 100 % on that when it comes to their quality of life. It is sad, but true. So with that reason/standard I think most of us would have been negative. I know I would if GoW was the only thing in life that could make me happy - I do be massively screwed bud. ---

I think for many it is more like what China is calling it. > **[Tencent tanks 10% after Chinese media calls online gaming 'opium' — CNBC](https://apple.news/A41Qw8Os5TjCOVOsiKCb2IA)** > > Shares of Tencent and NetEase plunged on Tuesday after Chinese state media branded online gaming "opium" and likened it to a drug.
