Hey gang. Very much settled into the Khorvash/Valk team mode. Completing lots of Kingdoms now on the back of those two, and it has allowed me to switch Hero class and start levelling those other areas. Still trying to find a Purple (Hero is Green currently) to help on the team, settled on Poison Master for now as others I have tried haven’t done much (I was excited when I got Tassarion but he seems rubbish? Werewolf very expensive and others also haven’t done much to help) but other than that it’s progressing well.
I notice quite a few traits seem team-based, so bonus for other Green Allies, or bonus if you are all Giants etc. Is it wise to use teams that are all linked like that? Or do people generally just use their own teams and it’s simply a nice but not game-changing bonus to have these traits help you?
team bonuses like this are nice but not game changing, so id say yes ignore them unless u can snag it as a bonus
traits that i could tell you that are nicer then you might think are ‘link’ ones - they give bonus mana for certain color gem matches - and that can help a lot if u stack some links along with a proper flag, so sometimes i stick a less usefull troop with a proper link just to cheese up charging the other 3 units
whats your entire team right now? i dont remmember and sorry but dont wanna scroll up all the way tryng to figure that out
No problem, I have asked a lot of questions! Currently I have Khorvash lead (Blue/Brown), then Valk (Yellow/Red), Hero (Green) and then Poison Master (Blue/Purple). Using Broken Banner (+1 Blue and Brown when matching).
Am trying to save for Valk’s last trait to gain bonus Blue Mana when matching). Not sure where to get the two x Arcane Storm Traitstones though.
sooth really shines only after he gets that empowered so you might wanna put him in after u get the 3rd trait
then u can start the game with his cast and get a free mana
Thankyou, not unlocked but it is visible on my map so will rectify that now. Got one Arcane drop from about 30 levels so just need one more for Valk and will then go back to doing Kingdoms.
Never ever buy the troops at the end of Arena. Save your Gems for the Chests! I recall posting the costs were insanely exuberant and an ex-dev said they were geared for early to mid game players. I guest that’s you.
I think this is one of the best video game communities out there.
I rarely see any serious vitriol, almost everyone is willing to offer a helping hand. It is VERY hard to get mocked/teased on this forum, though I have seen some topics that downright deserved it.
Another approach you could consider would be to replace your green hero with a troop that uses Green/Blue, then shift your focus to filling Valkyrie so that she can fill all 3 of your troops at once. In that case, you might also change your banner to Red/Yellow. Druid and Rowanne would be good possibilities, but I would probably put either of them in 4th position so you can fill Khorvash and Poison Master first (Khorvash for obvious reasons and PM so he can explode gems to refill everyone). Druid has really good traits for synergy (water link gives you bonus blue mana on every blue match, which really adds up with Valkyrie casting often, blessed adds bonus stats to all your troops and fast starts the match with 6/12 mana).
Once you’ve unlocked all kingdoms (that first!) you could also try to start working towards traiting Khorvash. Those stones drop at Broken Spire or Blackhawk. All his traits are worthwhile.
About the team bonuses, the lower your average stats are (the lower your level) the more useful they are, but they only help to offset a certain amount of missed synergy. The team you are building is already more synergetic than you can hope to compensate with team bonuses.
As a reference, I am currently (mid to endgame) PvPing with a team of Khorvash, Queen Mab, Valkyrie and Famine (last slot replacable by Mercy or Snowman too) (Double yellow banner if with Famine, Dragon otherwise), and still going strong with that.
My quick soulfarming/traitstone farming team is Queen Mab/Rowanne/Valkyrie/Mercy (Dragon Banner) where the three traits on Mercy are the most important.
I am still here! We were lucky enough to have a new addition to the family born early January so that has diminished by playtime somewhat! But I am still plugging away at the Kingdoms (81% complete currently). Will then farm stones for Khorvash as I only have his first Trait completed. I got a Queen Mab the other day but haven’t really used her yet, still rolling with Khor, Valk, Soothsayer and Poison Master.
Good to hear from you Herman, congrats on the new baby! You are playing the game at a very interesting time, and I hope you enjoy it and continue to ask questions about what you need help with.
