0.11% 1 Ahries, Mithrilion, Stonehammer
3.2% 1 Gorgotha, King Highforge, Kris Krinkle
12% 1 Durgan Ironfall, Emperina, Gimlet Stormbrew, Lady Ironbeard, Lord Ironbeard, Mortlach Stoutbeard, Rock Troll, Thunderforge, Zhak Boomgrizzle
21.6% 1 Apothecary, Blast Cannon, Dwarven Hunter, Kobold Emissary, Lasher, Living Quartz, Rune Chanter, Runesmith
21.6% 2 Bombardier, Deep Borer, Dwarf Lord, Excavator

Unfortunately, event chests have a tendency to be misconfigured, either entirely missing specific mythic troops or containing them at significantly lower than advertised odds. There is no way to know this ahead of spending, and no way to get any kind of refund. If you plan to open event chests, wait till the weekend for the community to find irregularities, this significantly reduces your risk of getting burned.

Old Player Team:

Rock Troll
Excavator
Deep Borer
King Highforge

Old Enemy Team:

Blast Cannon
Bombardier
Deep Borer
Gorgotha

Ah, I remember the old 3 generator 1 King Highforge team.

Bit of a mixed change: The new enemy team looks stronger than before. Lord Ironbeard does the 3x damage against Bombardier and Gimlet, but Gimlet’s empowered Enrage to feed into Lasher is not great…

At least this is the last trial that I have to care about, hopefully they change Khetar and Pan’s Vale to be less unpleasant in the future for everyone else.

It appears that Tier 4 bought by 30 active members is needed to finish all the world event portals. That coupled with the insane difficultly of the Glaycion battles at high levels begs me to wonder.

Does anyone even bother to see how many people are actually playing the game? The guild events? And is any thought at all put into that when deciding with zero transparency how these gimmicky points are decided?

If Gems of War is dying. Is anyone willing to work to save it?
