Hello friends, just looking for one or two buddies to share map data for this event:

> [@Fire and the Flames](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/fire-and-the-flames/69021):
>
> Originally published at: [https://gemsofwar.com/fire-and-the-flames/](https://gemsofwar.com/fire-and-the-flames/) New Epic Troop: Pyrohydra The Pyrohydra will be available this week for 400 Glory in the shop as well as in Event Chests, and will appear in Glory, Gem, and Guild chests in 3-4 weeks’ time. New Weapon: Facestick This week it will be available in both the Event shop, and in the Soulforge. World…

As per [this spreadsheet table](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/anchors-aweigh-data-collection/68920/14) (first image) ~~I will attempt to start with the troops with least points (that are not Gorgon), and work from there~~. You will probably start from troops with most points “optimal strategy”. Since I’m not shortchanging my guild with Tier 4 sigils, I will always take the _lowest scoring troop_.

With Tier 4 buy, it should be very quick to confirm if the sequence of replacement troops run in a single series across the advertised phases.

- Phase 3: 21 points. Left 3 Chief Stronghorns instead of 3 Gorgons
- Phase 4: TBC

When I get home I’ll do optimal strategy woth lowest awailable level in case of multiple identical enemies (cannot afford anything suboptimal currently).

Not sure how much this helps since I haven’t kept track of which exact fights I’ve done, but I know that following “optimal strategy” I’ve only fought 2 Gorgons in the first 30 battles, ending up with 306 points.

So optimal gave me:  
2x Gorgon: 16pts  
5x Hydra: 60pts  
23x Pyro/Skeleros: 230pts

Edit: Just realized I can use @cyberkiwi table to figure it out:

Hydra: lvl 90 (5 fights)  
PyroHydra: lvl 94 (6 fights)  
Skeleros: lvl 248 (17 fights)  
Gorgon: lvl 34 (2 fights)

I haven’t started the event yet, so like last time, I’ll contribute again. Will edit this comment with results as they come in.

I’ll be following what I think is the optimal strategy since my guild doesn’t always max out rewards.

Okay, this is what my optimal route looks like so far (T5 with all wins/all ravens). I’ll be updating as the week progresses.

 ![Phase Lore1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/c/e/ce938b7f300fe5c6570e74901e9d6707fc6549d9.jpeg)

Comparing my results with @Dust_Angel’s.

We started with identical maps. Regardless of location or fight we choose, the next fight available was always the same. So, no change here from last week.

Regarding phase 2, again, our maps were identical. Again, next available fight is identical.

We can stop recording at this point. We can conclude the next available fight is always the same regardless of what you choose.
