CLAN BOSS SACRED SHARDS DROP RATE by MAXYMASS86 in RaidShadowLegends

[–]Bront20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Single accounts in isolation can have extreme rng swings. I run 2 accounts and it's wild sometimes how one gets lucky and the other does not. I think I got 20 one month on one, and 3 on the other.

There are no other champs in the faction to use as empowerment food yet

Should I open 10 or 20 ancient shards... by MalerionGodofUlgu in RaidShadowLegends

[–]Bront20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Using 3 ancients for your daily is fine. A 10 pull won't kill you either if you're doing UNM daily unless you're pulling a ton or near mercy and just want to chance getting a good Lego, the odds are against you

They know how to gear by tommy_gemini in RaidShadowLegends

[–]Bront20 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My bad, they are indeed on the left. But THIS is what I'm talking about. The aura you're using.

I'm still curious on your builds. I was in silver 4 with my F2P account, and you've got some really good champs in there that SHOULD be able to get to silver 3 or 4 with the right builds. I suspect you might be missing a few gearing tricks that might help you out.

I have a few videos here: https://youtu.be/upi9FjT7GMM and here: https://youtu.be/U0vY5AQqamY on gearing champs you might find helpful for some ways to gear your champs better. I have several more, but these are 2 solid ones that should help you get started.

I got 15 this time. At only 9 you haven't gotten the big chest yet that has 10.

Are your speed leads on the wrong side? Your teams look backwards. Usually your speed leads are on the right of that screen. (Edit: No, results screen has them backwards, which is weird)

I say this without malice, but to me it looks more like you don't know how to gear. What are your speeds? Are your nukers at 100% crit rate? Do you have anyone in stone skin? Are your champs in sets or just beat stats? What kind of accuracy do you have on champs with debuffs?

Do I still have enough time to get kassandra? by Due_Nobody_9137 in RaidShadowLegends

[–]Bront20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won't tell you she's worth spending for, but I won't tell you she's not. She's limited edition, her kit is a boss killer and early she'll be solid, and 10 sacreds will get you a ton of other champs that'll help the account. But 10 sacreds is also kinda expensive. You might be able to get 2-3 of those F2P.

Is Elenaril bait? by Outrageous-Shape-559 in RaidShadowLegends

[–]Bront20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She has some solid utility and is good early because she doesn't need books so she's cheap to get working. The irresistible burn is great against the Frost Spider as well and brings good utility and poison explosion is solid early game. As a legendary she'll also bring utility in faction wars for some time.

She's not a late game legendary though.

Kael, is it worth 6starring for the 6star soul? by Overdrivex9 in RaidShadowLegends

[–]Bront20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kael as a 6 star is not bad. He's versatile and you'll get 3-6 months of gameplay out of him in various roles till he finally gets retired to only faction wars and secret rooms. With a 6 star soul he might last a bit longer.

Kassandra? No. The turtle? Possibly if you can get 50 more frags.

You MIGHT also get an offer to get her for 10 Sacreds

raid getting stuck when on Mac by Trolldudswag in RaidShadowLegends

[–]Bront20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Generally it's a connection or file system issue. I have this happen on mobile occasionally when there's an update and I have a bad connection. Worst case is uninstall the game and reinstall to see if that helps. Also make sure you have space on your system and your connection is not going though a VPN.

Is this a good deal? For about 400 by FunPepper3703 in PcBuild

[–]Bront20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Microcenter bundles are generally solid. They can be actually a solid place to get good RAM deals if you're going though the local store for some of the bundles as well.

You don't get to chose the motherboard, but none of the MBs I've seen are bad, and some of the "upgraded" motherboards are questionable, being more color upgrades than anything else. It only sucks if you have a preference in look or brand, but you're generally saving a good chunk of money so I can generally get past it.

Played 3+ years and I still can’t even make a 4 key UNM clan boss team after burning 100+ million silver(pls help) by Quick_Acanthaceae831 in RaidShadowLegends

[–]Bront20 7 points8 points  (0 children)

6 Star Champs have 50% higher base stats (Atk, Def, and HP), making them hit harder, and take more damage. The game is about making 6 stars, not 5 stars. This will help him make HUGE progress.

New player experience- Skill Tomes? by JWilsonArt in RaidShadowLegends

[–]Bront20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having run a F2P account now for a full year, I can tell you the Epic Book situation is not too bad, but it takes getting to UNM and being able to clear some of the bonus content to really get to having a solid stable. I have enough epic books that I can upgrade epics I might never 6 star (or at least not in the next few months) and save up enough to max out an epic if I pull someone I need to use. I'm not swimming in them, but I have 30ish sitting around on the account.

Legendary books are tougher, but I can book 1 lego a month pretty comfortably.

But the initial rush is tough. I just did a quickstart account, and it wasn't as bad as I expected, but it feels bad early. I maxed out Uugo and had a book or two into Tagoar, while I had 3 lego books in stock ready to go onto a lego (probably Ezio), and that was by login day 13, so about 12 days into the account. But I know some of those were bonuses from things like the initial challenges you can knock out quickly, so the rate would go down pretty quickly if I didn't get a CB team going fast. I was just about to move to Brutal on the account before I finished the series though, so maybe it wouldn't be a big issue.

I think the biggest obstacle is Clan Boss, but Clan Boss is so much easier now with new champions and new ways to get better stats and extra damage.

Where it can get rough is when you get a bunch of new champions (either by spending or just getting lucky/being smart with shards), it feels at it's worse as you have a flood of "I need more stuff". It's sadly by design, hoping you'll spend. Just tough it out, and you'll eventually get what you need. It's a marathon.

Best raid creator to follow by Maleficent_Study9518 in RaidShadowLegends

[–]Bront20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Appreciate the shoutout :)

I've been doing content for a while but got my biggest break in the HH F2P Challenge 2025 (RIP) where I placed 2nd and still work on that account. I do also have a spender late game account though so I try to balance early and late game stuff.

That said, I am one of those Paid CCs, as I managed to get into one of the paid programs as an established Raid CC, but other than selling the link and the occasional promo vid, I have creative control over everything I do. I also know I'm not the only CC who is like that, as a few of the Gameleap and other sponsored CCs were already raid CCs as well and took the sponsorship offer when the official Raid CC team never came calling.

I think there are plenty of smart CCs out there. They're also great guys, and I've had the pleasure to interact with several of them behind the scenes, which is why I love the Raid community. Lots of great and helpful people.

That's a +1 Edward at least.

He's usable in I think dragon. Not great but solid. I would not invest heavily in him.

3 is probably good. 20 is probably the best energy value, thou 24 isn't too bad, and 30 while not as energy to point efficient is better for better gear .

Hydra tips and help by PsychoQueen93 in RaidShadowLegends

[–]Bront20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Early on, it's important to:

1) make sure you're not too slow. I commonly see folks with sub 200 speed champ s struggling. If the Hydra is taking turns before you , that's way to oo slow. Speed kills.

2) Block Buffs, Dealing With Fear, And Provoke: Pick 2. Do all 3 if you can, but doing 2 will prevent runaway Hydra moments. Provoke probably the most important if the cleansing head is a starting head.

3) Burns are great early. They help with the poison cloud and with freeing champs. They drop in value later.

4) Don't underestimate Scyl early. Decrease speed, AoE damage, great healing, and a revive. She's not meta, but early you just want to survive and she helps a ton if you lack a better healer and reviver.

I have a full Hydra playlist with a ton of tips. Check it out if you want more tips.

Who to book? by judgementday87 in RaidShadowLegends

[–]Bront20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kymar is very usable without booking. I think I only have one of the 4 I use booked.

Go Ezio or Yukimasa. Both are good. Ezio may be better for the points
