After you boil it all down the scoring this week is pretty simple: Highest Rarity\>Lowest Level A pleasant change after last week. ---

The past two weeks had skull damage enhanced medals. Yet this week (with tons of attack focused troops) only spells are enhanced. @Saltypatra if no actual thought is put into each event weeks medals by a human. Then how can you argue that it’s not RNG based? Even a human randomly picking the medals regardless of troops being used is still RNG. Just the OG of RNG…a human brain. ---

Event medals were supposedly something to be creative with but they never were… So why not just give us double boosting medals each time? Would solve any possible issues. ---

I would rather see events which do not require boosts, it would solve the forgotten medal problems too ---

> [@Tibo](#): > > It might worth to skip bone dragon Oooooh, I don’t know about that. That’s as much as 24 spiritual energy, or 72 points, that you “lose” each time through (if you take 4 Mummified Kings when the game would have offered you 4 Bone Dragons). When 2600 points is the average needed to hit all 12 rewards, 72 points per cycle is not a small amount to miss out on. Edit: if the choice is “spend a sigil, get 12 points” (by beating Mummified King) or “spend a sigil, get 0 points” (by losing to Bone Dragon), then I guess option 1 is better. But as long as you can reliably beat Bone Dragon, that’s the correct choice. ---

I start skipping Bone Dragon after lvl330. Not worth the 4 points (over epic rivals). Also there is a risk for losing valraven. ---

Last week’s event was annoying due to the point requirements, but this has to possibly the worst event I think I’ve ever seen in this game. Bone Dragon is pretty much impossible at one point even with the scythe. ---

Are people not just using Settite Warriors? My Bone Dragon is level 550+, and that’s still working fine. Maybe only because I have the medals (always buy Tier VI because why not, when my gem stash goes up week to week anyway). Sucks not being able to target ravens quickly, but I find that’s true of most of these World Events 🤷‍♂️ ---

I only got Tier 3 when the minimum purchase needed is Tier 2. Settite Warrior definitely FTW this event. Personally, I think having really tough battles that eventually should be skipped is a good thing. Generally world events are too easy for endgamers. ---

Tier VI gives your troops barrier and likely has given you at least 2 medals. That will greatly increase the effectiveness and survivability of your troops compared to those who don’t purchase that many tiers. I’m getting pummeled by a 370 bone dragon with Tier 4 purchase. Maybe I need 2 or even 3x Settite warriors? Actually, not a bad idea… ---

Phew, it feels good to read these posts as I only bought tier 4 and am having trouble with bone dragon… For a moment I thought I’ve lost my touch to this game and should retire 😂 ---

Yeah, 3x Settite. Compounds each cast, and easy to fill. Can go 4x if you don’t care about using the hero. ---

As long as the min tier is 0-2 then I will barely complain. Tier 4 is just too expensive for the green orb I got. ---
