I guess y’all can call me Colonel Jessup, cuz don’t I feel like an A-hole. I don’t know how I missed this post from @Texugo-928:
I bet that took a long time to research and compose. Many thanks, and respect.
I'll leave with a link to @Timeknight's Hoard Optimization Thread
Before I read the post by @TimeKnight Hoard Optimization , I once used 32 Brass Rings, 20 Cups, 3 Crowns, 8 Lamps, and 2 Sacred Treasures to get a Hoard to 100. Total cost was 789k. The next time, I used 25 Cups, 26 Crowns, 3 Lamps and 1 ST. 580k. Time’s optimization showed it was possible to do with just 353k gold, which is a significant bit o’ savings to most players.
Thanks for reading, and happy delving. Time to bash some Elves.
