gotta love that chalcedony is the only journey troop in this cycle that DOESNT use green mana, and we got a 2nd green generator before the first yellow generator, where centaur would make perfect sense to generate yellow…

The loot table for troops in Divinion Fields event chests is expected to look like this:

| Chance | Amount | Troop |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 0.11% | 1 | Astral Mother, Sagittarian, The Worldbreaker |
| 3.2% | 1 | Artema, Oneiros, Orion, Orrery |
| 12% | 1 | Anthea, Atlanta, Auspecia, Bul’Tauros, Centuragon, Chiron, Herne, Nightwing, Ragnagord |
| 21.6% | 1 | Astral Spirit, Guardian of the Field, Herdmaster, Horse Lord, Ogretaur |
| 21.6% | 2 | Axe Beak, Pegasus, Plainsjumper, Star Gazer, Thaumataur |
| 21.49% | 3 | Centaur Scout, Moa, Orion’s Herald |

Remaining 20% is various resources. Data is based on community observation, there is no reliable official information, even in-game ads have been incorrect in the past. 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.

With summon, life gain, and cleanse I think it will just be a very long and slow, but safe trial. Artema is the biggest damage source, but she needs a lot of skulls.

yes but…

There’s no actual need for cleanse this week. Maybe the next time the kingdom comes around, it’ll matter more.

Astral - true damage to first slot  
Axe Beak - damage to first slot and sometimes damage to everything else to make summon spam a lot harder

Makes 1st slot Artema not the greatest, unless we’re sacrificing it for a faster Astral/Axe Beak removal

Life Gain - … it’s half magic for 16 green mana… =/

Oh and when Orion does get summoned in, it blocks Orion’s Herald. Wouldn’t be a problem, but Star Gazer’s attack buff makes it possible to 1-2 skull shot your team if it gets multiple casts off, so a skull cascade can be problematic. (with holiday skulls active this time around)

Oh and players have to own Orion already and have it traited to not have it be a useless summon. Oh and the ongoing missing troop bug… idk how it works with player summons.

I’m 100% sure someone of the small team really put their mind on this task, worked long, hard and relentlessly to upgrade the teams so the peasants, uhm, players get the best gaming experience possible.

They could have put Hippolyta in, and 3 more centaurs. An easy one would have been nice. Boring but nice… We have enough to struggle with next week. 😅

It would help a lot if the devs would put Astral Mother in the Soulforge, since there are only a limited number of Centaurs that use Green Mana, and she is one of them.

On an unrelated note, whoever decided to name the event this week (or every week)… why?

Well… it’s the inbetween for The Incredible Hulk and a worst movie ever contender in The Amazing Bulk, in which I never would have heard of if I didn’t watch The Search for the Worst on Youtube.

Why would you want to be remotely close to that movie in any way in search terms? This is beyond me…

Um pretty sure it’s only about Hulk and not whatever movie that is. Bulk and Hulk obviously go together.

The trial was not as bad as I feared. As long as you can keep summoning Orion (and don’t cast spells with him), you can slowly wear them down.

Well, worst is a bit of a stretch. If I’m wrong, I’m wrong. Not the worst, but… I didn’t enjoy that.

I’m saved by the AI playing exceptionally dumb. Axe Beak wasn’t landing its secondary effect, Star Gazer was buffing the wrong troop, and Anthea was casting when it had no reason to.

Still bottom 5 for me though, racing Bul’Tauros vs their team wasn’t my favorite. You can bet my Artema died very quickly a few times though.

Edit: Now that I think about it,I wouldn’t want to be a newer player that has less life than empowered Astral Spirit can cast for…
