Diamond farming

You will cry on the day that Gems of War shuts down.
There will be nothing left but memories. No one will acknowledge your deeds any longer. :wink:

Careful, you might cut someone on that edge.

Seriously though, why go so low? If he wants to spend that much time on the game, so be it. Collecting that much is quite the accomplishment, even if diamonds have a limited use for those who have everything.

It has no impact on you, as him having those diamonds doesn’t mean you can’t get more. So much hating on the super rich just for their swimming pool of money.

I think he was joking due to the emoji.

He is correct that you cannot collect 30k diamonds in 3 months without some sort of real life money (even with real life money, it may not be possible without the bug on xbox).

I have also amassed 30k+ diamonds through the daily dungeons…just in case.

I would have if I did not craft a few things, but it took me longer than 3 months lol

I understand that getting mythic troops super easily would make the game boring. But I have been playing since october 2018 and have only received one mythic troop and have only 2900 diamonds. Although I only realized about 2 months ago I have to do dungeons every day. I have only gone up about 1000 diamonds in those 2 months. I also get diamonds from my guild every week. Converting shards is an absolute pain because I need the souls to level kingdoms. Without Pharoah’s ra soul farming takes forever as it is. I wouldn’t mind getting a small amount of diamonds out of chests just a thought.

@Lapaloozie too bad you saw dungeons so late.

Also Treasure Gnomes give you some diamonds. Don’t miss them, especially on Vault weekend.

I don’t miss treasure gnomes for sure lol! I saw dungeons before but didn’t realize how important they were til so late. Still 2900 diamonds (minus 800 because I crafted something about 2 weeks ago) in 10 months really is not alot. I don’t know what I am doing wrong. I get the diamonds from guild, dungeons every day for 2 months, search crazy for gnomes. Buy the offer with gems a couple times a week. Also what I am doing wrong with finding any mythics in chests. People from my guild get mythics every week. I have never been very lucky just sucks it seems it’s based off of it i guess. Anyway Debbie downer moment over! I will keep grinding away i really like this game!

Develop your economics, collect tribute regularly, use glory to open glory chests (if you do not need this glory for anything more important like current week troop or Event keys bundle). Some of my Mythics came just from glory chests. And read some forum topics on how to get Mythics. Diamonds provide a robust way to get a Mythic troop, others are probabilistic.

It’s really just juggling numbers in an efficient way. In the long run, any of these will get you one mythic on average:

  • 100 VIP keys
  • 1000 gem keys
  • 1000 event keys
  • 1000 guild keys (at max chest level , 2000 in case your guild chests still contain guardians)
  • 10000 glory keys
  • 200k glory
  • 4000 diamonds

Improving your kingdom power levels helps a lot with gems and glory. You should be able to craft one mythic from diamonds from guild tasks and dungeon every four months, faster if you also buy the dungeon deal, especially on Sundays.

Maybe a more active guild would help too? I started in Oct 2018 too, currently lvl1200+ and holding 19 Mythics (2 were crafted). Granted, 6 of them were from the 30-day packages and/or VIP keys, but even the f2p guildies have their mythic stash, as long as they’re active enough…

:thinking::sweat_smile::vulcan_salute:

Come again? Where does this thought come from? Guilds are having a tough time recruiting because there’s so many guilds out there.

Not so much dying, but as long time players quit, most top guilds are bringing in less experienced players
Level 1000 used to mean you were endgame or close to it, but now it usually means someone is missing 100-200 troops as they just used a high speed explore team for the most part
It’s just a new generation of players that need to be trained and getting assistance to catch up via guild tasks n rewards

Hey, man don’t feel bad about not getting Mythics from chests… you ever heard of the phrase ‘no credit is better than having bad credit’? Well that sort of applies here. Not getting a Mythic is better than getting a bad one like Gargantaur or Shade of Zorn after spending a crapload of resources.

You’re doing the right thing already by going for the daily diamonds in the dungeon everyday. I hear you’re buying the offers in the dungeons once or twice a week. If anything if you are buying those offers just go for the ones on Sunday as they yield the most.

By doing that from Monday to Saturday you should be getting a total of 120 at 20 a day. Then on Sunday if you get 70 just from the dungeons itself. That makes a total of 190. If you just buy the offers in the dungeon you’ll get an additional 230 diamonds for a cost of 200 gems. That will bring your diamond total to 420 a week. By now you should be in a guild so the 200 gems shouldn’t be a problem if your guild is even only half way decent. If they are decentER than that you could probably get about 50 to 75 more diamonds minimum just from tasks.

At 420 a week minimum you’ll have enough to forge whichever mythic you want in about 10 weeks. Sounds like a long time but believe me it’s not as those weeks go by fast. Now here’s the kicker: these mythics are on rotation and every rotation they are chosen randomly. So if the mythic you want shows up before you have enough diamonds just keep plugging away at those diamonds every day anyway. Who knows? By the time the one you want rolls around on the next rotation again you’ll might have enough for two!

Just keep gettting them dungeons completed. It doesn’t take more than 10 minutes a day.

Then you must be spending them on soul forge weapons and didn’t realize it, because otherwise you’d have a lot more diamonds. Playing 7 dungeons a week AND buying the 50 gem pack on Sunday gets you 260 diamonds a week. In four months you’d have 4000 diamonds just from that.

On the other hand, even bad Mythics help you with Kingdom Power.

Just thought I’d throw this out there. This was all calculated before gnomes and stage rewards in events existed so you will actually be getting more per week than this.

yeah but I think the person I was responding to was prioritizing getting a mythic over kingdom power. Besides:

getting bad mythic = not awesome
getting kingdom power = awesome
getting good mythic = awesome
getting good mythic AND getting kingdom power = awesomeR

Actually I am not prioritizing mythics over kingdom power. I have all kingdoms at 4+ stars and more than half at 6+. I think I just started to late on diamond gathering everyday. I finally got Pharoahs Ra out of soul forge so yea! Thank you everyone for your help! I will keep plugging away!

Also I am kind of a completist freak so… but I do agree on good mythics awesome. Full kingdom power awesomer
