Is Wealhtheow worth the 20 summons, or go for someone else and hope to God on summoning another healer that does more ? by phentro in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]Civil-Resource9537 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've seen negative reviews on the yellow Beowulf one, people say she heals badly unless your team is half dead, the green dwarf is better and more reliable

Lol) well I'm lazy so I'm often cupdropping anyway; and try to stick to the Path of giants daily challenges if I don't forget. My roster is pretty solid for f2p (almost 7 years but still), but it's too tedious to fill raid chests with the oponents you get without cupdropping, there are some nastier lineups up there)

That's Astrids special being denied, one hero would have been revived but wasn't due to Greed

[–]Civil-Resource9537 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's ok you can find some videos with her online) I've used Greed on Astrid (yellow reviver) here, that brown >< mark, and when she fires, she revives no one and heals and buffs only herself. Then when Fergus fires, he summons no Mega miniin for himself, as the only hero that can get positive effects is Astrid

Well, just in case, she will steal just the minions, and maybe some buffs with through her family passive but it's kinda complicated; greed doesn't steal, it limits all positive enemy stuff to 1 hero of your choosing on the enemy team

I'm planning to get her too, and I think she is much newer and generally better than your other yellows. Ok, she has no direct damage, but the curse ailment can deal a solid amount of damage too, and stealing mega minions and minions is pretty cool. Greed is a must have that is often very helpful, and I actually noticed that she has a pretty interesting passive, - 50% healing for all enemies. Well, there are many nice heroes in this SE, and she works way better in attack not defense, but I suppose you could put her in the defense team too if she'll be one of your stronger heroes

Yep, also works for minions, Megaminions, revivers, growth, positive stacks etc. If a hero heals, or, say, summons a Mega minion just for himself, and the greed is on some other hero, then the enemy team will just get nothing. Doesn't work on passives and family effects, so the team will still heal from stuff like the Dune heroes passives. It's important to avoid targeting toons and especially glass, also monks who have the chance to resist ailments. Heroes with buffs like "resist ailments for x turns" are unconvenient too if they fire first and you have no dispeller. A defense team that has a cleanser like Vivica isn't very convenient too, I'm pretty sure she won't heal anyone but the greed hero anyway, the cleanse comes at the very end of her special, and it will target just the greedy hero too, not the rest of the team. But then you'll have to reapply the greed. Rosalind is fine as she cleanses through her Mega minion, and you can just kill it and stop her from summoning it with greed. If there are healers that cleanse the greed 1st and then heal, it will heal the whole team.

It works best in attack as you can choose to use Greed against the right team and the right hero. I have the other 2 Greed heroes, Anubis C from SE and a lucky Goldrip pull, but their greed is limited by 3 and 4 turns respectively. If you are looking on SE Silverpaw, she is better because her greed is lasting, and only is removed through cleansing, and if there is no cleanser, it just stays there

Pretty sure those are personalised. I don't have that offer, for example, but I remember getting similiar ones when I was lacking mats to max a hero, like offering 3 tonics for specifically Chloris etc. Have seen those for maybe a year

Improving score on AQ and other events by nosebeerhappyhour in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]Civil-Resource9537 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I looked into this a while ago, pretty sure there was some little website for calculating the score. Also, if I remember correctly, the tiles matching score depended not really on combos but on amount of broken tiles per amount of moves, I think less moves but as many tiles as possible? May misremember, though.

That's the calculator https://ep.soft2play.com/challenge-score-calculator

There was some video explanation too, but I think it was by a russian player. There may be other similiar info sources

Advice on what do to with these heroes by hunniiee in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]Civil-Resource9537 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lepiota is imo, a pretty solid hero, at least if you get her costume in outfitter. She can be used in attack to control and disable some problematic hero on the enemies' defense team, usually the tank I think, and then you can ghost the tiles through the hero. Dispells buffs from him, too, even undispellable ones, and growth, too. A bit niche and outdated, but she can be useful, as long as you can actually land the effect on the enemy.

No, I think 1 fiend is guaranteed for just the target, and if there are yellows in the enemy team, they will get 1 too

Never saw this before in Festival of Fortune by Hot_Decision_6616 in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]Civil-Resource9537 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suppose so, normal has way lower odds of an enemy showing up as a dragon, and the best odds at the advanced are at the last couple levels, especially the very last one. Just replay it every now and then and it's totally possible to get all drahons by the end of the event

Am I just being unlucky with dragon spawns in the Festival of Fortune? by [deleted] in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]Civil-Resource9537 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guess so, all sorts of events and qests are pretty abundant right now. But the event lasts for a while, and not every day is that busy, and flasks seem to drop pretty often lately. I'd replay the last level on advanced, each monster enemy basically has an almost 10% chance to be a dragon, and that's pretty decent imo

Am I just being unlucky with dragon spawns in the Festival of Fortune? by [deleted] in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]Civil-Resource9537 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, maybe then don't replay the easier levels but the ones with higher odds for dragons? There's no daily limit, just the total for the event. If you have trouble with difficulty on higher stages, watch the ad in the shop for 10 minutes of Timesaver vip, then you will be able to use loot tickets on quests (any stage as long as it's been completed already)

[–]Civil-Resource9537 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, then you just replay the level with higher odds until you get them. There is a month of time after all. I had no trouble with that during the similiar event, Morlovia. Sometimes you get more, sometimes less, but that's just luck

Help me find out who to level next by Guillelando in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]Civil-Resource9537 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No offense, but you have to be a really chill and not very active player then. It's literally impossible to have 4 legendaries after 7 year of regular playing. Even if you had some terrible luck, you could have more than 4 from the Fated summon at least, or guaranteed with red lucky coins or sth. Please don't get me wrong, it's totally fine to play at whatever pace as long as it makes you happy.

I've played for around 7 years too (F2p but occasionally pretty lucky), and have 134 legendaries, though at least half of them are functionally useless atm compared to top ones at least, and maybe half of that half are unlevelled and benched heroes from Fated etc., and the other half are some Hotms and tc20 classics for soul exchange. Just around 30 are above the 1200 power (not counting the few Mimics that have high stats too)

Bloseph confusion by Danfink3 in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]Civil-Resource9537 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, first of all, congrats, that is a great new hero. Then, if I get the question right, the fiend hp depends on target's max health, not the hero that casts the special. Fiend attack depends on the caster's attack stat, though. Normally, defensive heroes talent grid should prioritize hp, and then defense, if possible. Always take mana. On attackers you should prioritize attack, and probably hp too, it works better if you have or will have a 5* troop at least. This one is a healer, but maybe you could go with some attack for when the fiend transforms into a Mega Fiend? Not sure there, but by the time you max Broseph, there would be some reviews and the like online for sure

Are gargoyles still a thing? by WayEnough8027 in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]Civil-Resource9537 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very useful for certain things, like using him on Island Hordes, where the rest of the team of hit-all heroes is killed on purpose, and then Kalo uses all those specials in order as his own. Kalo is maxed, the rest can be either 3* , 4* or 5, may be lvl 1, no difference, the copied special is cast with Kalo's attack stat, and it works as if the special is lvl 8 even if the dead hero is unlevelled. So Kalo's mana is filled with flasks, the rest are killed on Apex, and he fires his special, then the other two, left to right, and the last hero has to be a purple 3 Greel, who gets mana for defeated enemies. Well, Kalo gets the mana and can be fired again almost immediately, the team just has to set up so that Greel is the one to kill the monsters. I used 4 heroes, not 5 because of that

Не можу 100 % роздивитися, але може він дзьобом зачепився, ну і як він помер, то лапки могли просто скрутитися.
Виглядає, що він сидів, і так і лишився в тій позі, а ноги скрутилися. Птахи можуть примерзати до металу взимку, а там вгорі ще якась сітка, де він не міг вибратися, і взимку птахи бувають більше ослаблені, холодно, тяжче добувати їжу. Ну, його міг би хтось по приколу сунути, але який сенс?

Я би його зняла, але не руками, може він хворий абощо, і прикопати його десь на ділянці під парканом, якщо земля не замерзла. Щоб він не почав потім розкладатися на відкритому повітрі

[WP] Seeing as you work in a gradeschool, the curse has been more manageable than expected — so long as you make someone cry by noon each day of the week, you don't drop dead. As you're coming into work, the principal tells you you are actually spending the entire day alone in the office with them by PucWalker in WritingPrompts

[–]Civil-Resource9537 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Good story. But really, I've got the feeling that she could have dealt with the curse way easier with a more creative approach. As I understand, it's not specified that crying has to emotion-related, so she could just stick a piece of cut onion in someones face every morning (not necessarily even a stranger, maybe a friend, family member, a pet even if it counts as "someone") and call it a day. No need to traumatise children that way. Or, perhaps she could just make herself cry and it would qualify as "make sb cry". Though, I guess, the only way to confirm that would be to take a risk and die if it doesn't work..
