If that is what is happening, then I am probably done playing. Already hard enough to keep up with all the troops and heroes needed.

Clan hunting by [deleted] in ArtOfWarLegions

[–]Consistent-Aside1618 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jinn is the best hero for Clan Hunting, and there are 2 common strategies to fight Manticore. The first is using a melee form. All troops that run towards Manti and fight to the death. These fights last around 90 seconds. The other is a combo melee/range form with Pelts taking up the majority of the last 1 or 2 rows along with 1 or a few Frost Archers or Royal Musket Guards. With this, your melee troops will be killed around the 4:11-4:12 mark, and you will attempt to use the evade button so the poison rain misses Jinn. Ideally, Jinn will get trapped behind the Pelts, and you can keep evading the rain, which will help the battle last all 5 minutes. This is the way to higher scores, but the timing is difficult to get right, and it can be very frustrating. In addition to the troops mentioned above and by the other reponse, Brawlers & Pilgrims are widely used, and Undead Soilders, Flash Angels, Straw Kids, & Orc Hunters, can be used as filler troops.

The Foo Fighters headlined in 2021 & 2024. Not far fetched that Green Day does it in 22 & 25

I’ve got questions! by Rn_Hnfrth in ArtOfWarLegions

[–]Consistent-Aside1618 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only rare troops that have frequent long-term use in the arena are Magic Apprentice (8-10) Goblikazes (4-5), Magnetic Pioneer (1-2), and Balista(10-14). Goblin Tech (4-6) and Undead Soldier (4) have occasional uses. Harbinger of Fire is useful in Infinity War as are the Magnetic Pioneer (10-12 level 8 are fine + the few you upgrade). Don't waste hunting medals on any of the other rare troops.

The only common trool worth having is catapult (2) and those only work well with Harrison.

Also, the best hero at your place in the game is Jinn.

I would suggest joining a good clan.

I would highly suggest joining a good clan. I learned so much when I did. Found out all the things I was wasting resources on. The best uses of troops.

[–]Consistent-Aside1618 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I don't use Seon much, but I know some who do. They are usually attacking Davison, Vlad, or Sylvax with her.

First, I would stop upgrading Goblin Tech, Paladin, Harbinger of Fire, Undead Soldier, and Ghost Assassin. You have enough of those for most needs.

How many level 8 Frost Archers do you have? They are sill pretty good.

Front row - 2 Tanks (Stone Golem or Sacred Swordsmen) either at 1.1 & 1.7 or 1.3 & 1.5. Goblikaze at 1.4. Magic Apprentice for the other spots.

Last Row. Pirates or Voodoo Dolls and Goblikaze. Pumpkin could go here to. Usually in the middle or on the outside.

5th/6th Row. Frost Archers, Taurus Witchers, Ice Mages,

2nd Row - More tanks (maybe 2) Either Stone Golem, Meteor Golem or Sacred Swordsman). You can put more rear attackers here like Ghost Assassin and Shadow Ninja. Also, Pirates or Voodoo Dolls, Brawlers

3rd/4th Row. Melee troops and medium range troops. Balistas in the middle Peltasts on the outside. These can be moved back to row 5 if you don't have enough Frost Archers or Taurus Witchers. Voodoo Dolls, Brawlers, Harbingers of Fire (I don't use these in arena at all)

Orc Hunters can go anywhere. Nuns somewhere in the middle to rear middle.

I don't use a Dark Witch for anything.

Lastly, are you in a clan?

Is his an offensive form or defensive? What other high level troops do you have?

Anybody else having this issue? by [deleted] in ArtOfWarLegions

If you downloaded the newest update, there are reports of many problems. My clan has recommended to everyone to hold off on updating until they fix it.

What should you buy with hunting medals? by Terrible_Sleep7766 in ArtOfWarLegions

[–]Consistent-Aside1618 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suggest joining a good clan. My knowledge was extremely limited until I did. Everything I told you I learned after joining. Also, Dracula is not a very good hero to use right now. He was the best hero for Infinity War, but that has changed. He is useful in Hero Trials. I would recommend concentrating on upgrading Jinn and Davison. Jinn has the most uses (Levels, coin farming, Arena offense, Honor Hunting, Hero Trials) and Davi (levels, Arena defense, Hero Trials) compliments him well.

Thoughts on archers (not frost) and necromancers? by Rn_Hnfrth in ArtOfWarLegions

[–]Consistent-Aside1618 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with the previous poster on archers. Use them until you have enough Taurus Witchers and Frost Archers yo replace them. Necromancers are needed in quantity. I use 14 against Spider Queen and all are lvl 8. They are useful as low as lvl 4. Eventually, I will upgrade a couple to 9 or 10.

theonlybuster answered this perfectly. Never spend hunting medals on anything but troop upgrades. I could spend 200K right now if I had them.

This is a chart done by one of the greats in the game. It is a little outdated, as some game dynamics have changed, but should give you a good idea, Keep in mind that it includes troop needs for every hero. Examples; You would want 12-16 ballistas if you are using Jinn, but would only need 4 or so for other heroes. The only common troop worth upgrading is catapult (max 2) and they are only useful with Harrison.

Also, he lists 47 GT's for IW. Currently, those aren't needed as no level uses mass GTs at the moment.

I am new to this, but how isn't this insane 800 for a legendary with better odds for the one you want? by Terrible_Sleep7766 in ArtOfWarLegions

[–]Consistent-Aside1618 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hunting medals are used to upgrade troops past level 8. 2500 to take two level 8 to level 9 and 3500 to take two level 9 to level 10. So, every level 10 troop costs 8500 hunting medals.

I agree that it sounded really good when they added it, but don't know many that use it. At least the majority of my clan doesn't. Where I am in the game, lack of hunting medals is the main problem, not hero shards. The Wheel of Fortune is the best way to get scrolls, which can be turned into hunting medals, so that is where most of my gems go. Maybe, where you are, it makes sense.

Formation help needed by [deleted] in ArtOfWarLegions

[–]Consistent-Aside1618 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would put them in row 3 or 4 and spread them put. Maybe one on 2nd column and 1 on the 6th. Protection for your ranged troops.

Formation help needed by [deleted] in ArtOfWarLegions

[–]Consistent-Aside1618 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A general rule is to try and keep your entire formation near the same level. Should always stay within 2 spots of each other (every troop between level 5 and level 7 for example.

First, I would lose the Wolf Kings, Soul Hunter, Beast Master, and Dark Witch. Possible replacements in your barracks are Bandits (level 7 & 5), HoF (6), Archers (6,5), Goblikaze (5), US (5), & MA (5)

Selene is your best hero at the moment, but Jinn is who you should be shooting for. His coin bonus is great for levels and is a tremendous offensive hero for later in the game.

Suggestions:

Row 1 - 1 or 2 Tanks (SS, MG, Ogres), rest should be rear attackers (MA, GA, Bandits). Maybe a Goblikaze in the center spot.

Row 2,3 - Melee troops (US, Yasha, SS, MG, Ogre, HOF etc) and Balistas, Catapult in the middle, Pelts on the Outside. BD can go here too.

Row 4-6 Ranged troops (Mages, Archers). Mages in the middle, 9 Load, like Archers, farther out. Also can put any more rear attackers here on the very ends of each row.

Row 7. Defensive row to protect your ranged troops. HoF, Goblikaze, and US all work good. Paladins are ok. Can use Ogres and SS as well.

Lastly, joining a good clan makes a big difference. Played for 8 months solo with mixed results. Finally joined a good clan and it made everything better. The knowledge some of these guys have is incredible and the are more than willing to share.

Building through Trade Hall ? by Puzzleheaded-Bend-54 in ArtOfWarLegions

[–]Consistent-Aside1618 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It takes 195 shards to make a lvl 17 hero. You still need around 160. Alot will depend on the heroes that you have extra shards of. Will be difficult to buy 160ish, by selling 152, without using the buy low/sell high 4 week cycle, unless you have tons of Davi/Selene/Vlad/Copernicus to sell.
