Looks great indeed even outside the event. pity there is only one Dhrak-zum troop though and we can’t raise kingdom power level past 5. ---

Weekly reminder that we would like to see displayed boost ratios included with troop previews (this one should be x5). Also, not sure why this weapon has its mana cost hidden, as this was never a problem before (should be 18). Aside from that, the Epic looks pretty usable, particularly at early/midgame, and the weapon looks great in and outside of the event. ---

What are the odds the game won’t work after update due to the same issues over and over again. Server problems Again. ---

I could understand getting one troop if the doom was of the region (Dhrak-zum) but it sadly isn’t and until the Doom of Stone is released, you would need every troop, including the mythic to go past 5 stars. ---
