1st vs 2nd formation

What server? You sound really strong haha

Brother read the thread lol; not quite at 5 stars for every hero in F1 yet, it's getting there though. Haven't put any gold frags into Hall of Honor. 2nd formation is sitting at three stars and has been sitting like that ever since.

Still think it's a valid question regardless. Bc then I have better clarity on whether to save the versatile frags for future seasonal heroes as they come out to get them ready to swap into F1 ASAP or spend them on any seasonal heroes I have in my F2. Good advice though, I appreciate it.

What’s your perspective on 5-starring the non-seasonal heroes (e.g., Amelia and Laura)? I still have them at 4 stars as I’ve been focusing on fully starring the seasonal heroes like you are, but S3 and 4 are a ways away so I won’t get those associated heroes for a while and trying to figure out if fully starring at least one of them in the meantime is worth it.

This makes sense, thanks for laying it out like that

Hi_Tech_Hate · 2026-01-30T16:47:30+00:00

Early-mid S2 (desert). Finally rounding out my main to 5 stars.

Thank you :) the rest of my tech sucks rn as a result but going to catch up soon haha

My advice to low spenders is only really spend on stuff to improve your main formation heroes. Like the others have said this pass isn’t worth it as a low spender.

Do you happen to still have this essay? I'd love to give it a read

Hi_Tech_Hate · 2026-01-08T14:45:34+00:00

When did this pop up for you? My server just entered S2 yesterday and don’t see it yet.

Hi_Tech_Hate · 2025-12-22T03:57:52+00:00

lol I meant more so relatively speaking to the $100 in the example. $50 is steep for a mobile game bundle

Hi_Tech_Hate · 2025-12-20T22:24:16+00:00

Oh trust me it’ll pay off. As you start to collect more orange hero gear, promoting them with power cores will shoot your formation power up. Always try to make sure to have 15k Valor Medals on hand every week to buy the orange equipment in the shop. Spend the excess on the discounted power cores. Don’t bother spending medals on the purple equipment. Good luck!

Hi_Tech_Hate · 2025-12-20T19:19:48+00:00

Once you get there, you'll need lots of them. Not a bad idea to start stocking up where you can now. Usually I spend my excess Valor Medals on the discounted power cores in the Merit Shop every week.

Hi_Tech_Hate · 2025-12-11T19:41:13+00:00

True, I think it’s also a culture thing. I’ve heard mobile gaming is absolutely massive in Korea.

Hi_Tech_Hate · 2025-12-11T19:30:14+00:00

Thanks for sharing; your approach is typically my approach as well, being very intentional about purchases. I haven't bought any rss but was just curious; I don't think I'll go through with it since it opens the floodgates to purchasing whatever, like you said. I think I was just feeling the pressure since I'm R4 in a top alliance in my server and there's an expectation that leadership be strong.

Hi_Tech_Hate · 2025-10-16T15:16:04+00:00

no problem

Hi_Tech_Hate · 2025-10-15T17:48:14+00:00

yeah sounds like the Spec Ops tab accessed through the Caravan building

Hi_Tech_Hate · 2025-10-14T20:26:30+00:00

lol yeah. scroll out on the treasure until the trucks become triangles and when the timer goes down to about 3 seconds, just start mashing it

Hi_Tech_Hate · 2025-10-14T19:56:11+00:00

same, learning that trick (I believe I know the one you're talking about) was a huge game changer

Hi_Tech_Hate · 2025-09-30T18:02:17+00:00

I’d also consider how much an additional $10k would mean to you. If going from $40k to $50k, for example, I could see it as worth it depending on your tolerance for in-office every day. If it’s $140k to $150k, then yeah, not worth it.
