I don’t know about your experiences, but in my experience the AI has ALWAYS recast if the Pathfinder generated an Extra Turn (which is \>90% of the time…). Chalcedony and Xenith were the worst of it, because Xenith creating more Gargoyle Gems slowly increased Chalcedony’s looping to infinity% and beyond. Similar things happen with Detect-o-Bot, but at least _that_ troop eventually self-destructs. Copycat and Necrocorn can loop themselves, too, but not as effectively and their loops don’t deal actual damage. > [@Dust\_Angel](#): > > Were the journey troops that hellish bane loudest voices made them to be? - Nope, no more than dozens of other stuff. > > Were the journey troops be-all-end-all on every team? - Absolutely not! The Journey troops were, however, relatively easy to obtain and did not require ANY team synergy (beyond matching Troop Types) to set up the infinite loop. --- _[View the full topic](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/journey-now-unplayable-at-higher-levels-pt2/82952)._
