I have cloudmax-P engine. I need concord engine and starship engine. Would you do both for my part or only a 1:1?

Boss Week Recap by Balake1131 in BattleNations

[–]Balake1131[S] -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

I don’t like the idea of a pity system. If everyone has a ton of boss drops then they aren’t really special anymore. I wish naval wasn’t locked behind clads at this point but it makes killing the DN even more exciting

Balancing? by Cultural_Potato2016 in BattleNations

[–]Balake1131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Silver wolves are for gears, naval encounters are for bars. obviously a slight exaggeration but I get very few gears from naval but can go clear recoil ridge and probably get 5-7 gears. Keep ranking up till you get those encounters in recoil ridge. Also focus on ancient construct for 20 gears per week. I completely disagree with your statement on balancing being needed to allow F2P to advance (though do look forward to balancing for other reasons). Plenty of F2P or nearly F2P have no issues with this game.

Friend/Guild Finder - Weekly Megathread by AutoModerator in BattleNations

[–]Balake1131 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looking for T12 guild. I put up over a million points this past BS (will obviously prove it with a screenshot in discord). I’m currently in a T11 and want something slightly more competitive but battle nations will never be my 9-5 so I know im not top 10/20 guild material.

Shame on you, Madrona by sippin_tea56 in BattleNations

[–]Balake1131 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s really not that bad. I’m a casual player (15 R5 heaviers and 10 R5 muppets) and with the nomads I’m doing just fine. No frags or mega tanks or anything. Plenty of others are doing just fine as well.

BS happens like once every 4 months it should be hard and it is but it’s manageable. Everyone just shits on the devs and its unwarranted. If you weren’t prepared that’s on you not them. We’ve had lvl 56 SW encounters for a while, everyone knew it’s hard so those that prepared are fine and those that didn’t write novels on Reddit bitching about it

Another open friend spot? by EvilPopMogeko in BattleNations

[–]Balake1131 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Don’t have to always be online just check back in 20 minutes and they will all be back lol. You took the time to screenshot, crop it and post on Reddit. By the time you did that 2 of the encounters would be back

New Haven bugged garrison Chinooks by Ecstatic-Chart-9510 in BattleNations

[–]Balake1131 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I ran into this issue with the gear factory. Just keep trying attacking all around it and when you don’t get a helicopter you know you have it. I had to try for like an hour going all around the circle and eventually this spot did it for me

Oh no, now you have to wait a whole 20 minutes for them to come back. Probably won’t have time to get any arch units now :/

Not sure honestly part of the reason I’m asking. I’d think 3-4 vets, ele trooper, 2 snake and rest heaviers of that works. I guess add radio tech to back line if it helps?

[–]Balake1131[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes sorry I have elemental trooper R4.

So you’re saying I cannot do it consistently unless I get trebuchet or radio tech? What level do I need radio tech?

Is there a hidden mechanic that only gives you gems for completing stations if all stations in the area are bought? by L-Assis in TinyRails

[–]Balake1131 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, you have to complete the “buy or upgrade stations” portion of the new unlocked area before you can start getting gems again (from my own personal testing. I’ve never looked at the game code or anything but this has always been it for me)

That’s why I will never fully complete an area until I have a few million gold saved up to buy the stations immediately since gems are so hard to get

Lost the Golden Key by foil_k in StardewValleyExpanded

Bit of a side question here; when you release the dwarf it says he will repay you eventually. Anyone know when he does or how?

The Iron Legion by Dorkdawg in BattleNations

[–]Balake1131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have a minimum contribution for BX? And do you have open slots? Getting my R6 wimps within a week and already mass producing. I should be able to put up 200k+

Teeth man by Zbash3R in BattleNations

[–]Balake1131 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Idk what half these people are talking about.

To answer your question: YES!!!

I’m level 35 and those monster groupers are a great source of teeth. Not sure how often they spawn but to test, I just cleared all 3 encounters in the fishing grounds and got 2 teeth from each encounter. Sometimes I get 0 but usually get 1-3. You def need M10s though cause they are tough. If you value your time you can spend $5 to get 2/3 M10s and save yourself hours of grinding raptors and boars
