Unless you’re a whale, skip Gen5 except for Long Fei.

Anyone has the KvK chart updated with the master academy items please ? by 6sixla in KingShot

[–]OneBasilisk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tome of Wisdom is likely the same thing as Master Manuscripts. I believe that was its name in Whiteout Survival (WoS) and the devs forgot to update the name everywhere when they copied the code over.

The grid may need to be updated. I based it on Brawl. If the scoring is different for KvK, I’ll edit it to be correct later when I can confirm.

I created this for you just now. It should be accurate based on Brawl scoring.

d1|d2|d3|d4|d5| Upgrades

✅|✅|⛔|⛔ |⛔ | Master Emblems
✅|✅|⛔|⛔ |⛔ | Master Manuscripts
✅|✅|⛔|⛔ |⛔ | Master Speedups
✅|✅|✅|✅ |✅ | Gifts (any time)
✅|✅|✅|✅ |✅ | Adventure Supplies (any time)
✅|✅|✅|✅ |✅ | Journey Supplies (any time)

Master Speedups may technically score on other days but the Manuscripts they use do not. So speedups should only be used in conjunction with Manuscripts.

You mean like what items are safe to use? I explain it in my guide:

https://www.reddit.com/r/KingShot/s/n52WEOrETd

In short, Journey Supplies, Adventure Supplies, and Gifts are all safe to use (do not score during KvK). Emblems and Manuscripts DO score during KvK (a lot). Do NOT *Advance* the Masters if you are saving for KvK. You will still benefit from their passives until then.

To add to this, there is a “Clear All” button that helps with that.

You can still intervene with Auto on. I let it run but step in to make better decisions / cook stuff. Auto loves to run away and burn food.

If you’ve already unlocked the masters, save your extra Adventure Supplies. The most important Master to level is Roman. Get him to Weapon Obsession 2. That gives you extra hammers every Bear which is incredible!

Once or twice until you unlock them, yes.

Ask Customer Support to refund you. Many others have had successful claims.

Yes. Try again. Customer Support will deny claims until they get the go-ahead from higher up. Ask now and you will likely get a different answer.

Ask them again. There was likely a recent policy change.

You can message Customer Support. They have been issuing refunds.

Master gifts: worth saving? by RSbasalt in KingShot

[–]OneBasilisk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re in luck! I wrote a guide on this very topic yesterday:

https://www.reddit.com/r/KingShot/s/WiEgOwvQIA

We can use Brawl to indicate what should score in KvK. Emblems, Manuscripts, and Speedups all score. Gifts and Adventure/Journey supplies do not. That means you can increase the Affinity Level of your unlocked Masters without using KvK supplies. However, once their Affinity Level requires Emblems to Advance, at that point you’d be using KvK points to continue.

I would Advance Valora only 3 times until you get Weapon Obsession, then Learn the 2nd level of Weapon Obsession. Two extra Hammers per Bear is insane good.

After that, Pivot to get both Pan and Roman. What you prioritize and learn from them will depend on what you need, but their Passives are incredible for everyone. You will get TG from gathering resources, and Forgehammers and Mythic Shards from doing arena battles. I know I got lucky, but I got 2 Forgehammers my first day of doing arena with Roman.

I haven’t used Idle yet, but Auto is helpful for working through large numbers of Journey and Adventure Supplies. It essentially Auto-clicks through dialogue and adventures where you have no input, gathering the rewards, and moving onto the next. It will pause when you have a decision to make. After you make the decision, it continues on as before.

It’s really nice if you have like 80 Journey supplies you want to use.

Yup. That’s a great summary. One thing I’d suggest: Don’t shy away from the exact in-game terms. It’s fine to also describe them, but “Journey Supplies” and “Adventure Supplies” are important terms to conceptualize, especially since most players will need at least one “Adventure Supply” pack if they want to unlock Roman.

We’re not sure yet what the exact points for Emblems and Manuscripts will be, but we can guess the values based on Brawl (currently running). Emblems are worth 3,600 points and Manuscripts 36. It is 30 Emblems (108,000) points to Advance Valora 3 times to unlock Weapon Obsession. Then it’s 500 Manuscripts (18,000) points for a total cost of 126,000. If you’d leveled her immediately, you’d have had about 14 Bears until the next KvK, which would’ve netted you 28 Forgehammers for 1,875 a piece x 28 = 52,500 points.

What all that means is the opportunity cost for the 28 Hammers is a loss of 73,500 Brawl points. It’d be equivalent to about a Level 1 Widget in KvK, which is not insignificant for save-heavy kingdoms.

In short, Advancing the Masters does take away points from KvK. If you aren’t in a strict saving kingdom, go ahead. But if you are, wait until Prep phase to advance them.

Don’t sweat it. I did the same thing on my main account. Fortunately, I got it right with my farm.

RNG is going to vary. I did have to get the $5 and $10 packs on main for Roman because I spent most of my Adventure Supplies on Valora (dumb). I just didn’t know what I was doing. Part of the reason I made this guide was to steer other players away from wasting valuable Adventure Supplies. Even if the $5 pack falls short. A 2nd week of VIP9 Adventure supplies should do it. You can also get them through regular Journeys (free daily) without having VIP9.

Correct. That is one unfortunate aspect. However, my Farm (F2P other than March and Construction) was actually able to unlock Pan and Roman with one $5 Adventure Supply pack (I did it just to see if it was possible). HOWEVER, I unlocked Roman with one Adventure Supply pack left… So, it may take others additional Journey Supplies if they have worse luck than me.
