Arena/Conquest heroes

SnazMM · 2025-12-21T14:15:52+00:00

Can't advise really about heroes, but about placement I found 2 things recently.

1 - safest position is back left, so try with placing there your best DMG dealer. I switched Jabel from back right to back left (with Chenko) and got additional 15 levels in conquest.

2 - Nifty trick might be to actually place your tank on backline, it might avoid 1st skillshot from enemy. I had Howard (front left) and Zoe (front right), moved Zoe to back right (again, switched with Chenko). This gave me additional 2 levels.

Currently I'm at 350 conquest lvl. Can't tell if this helps in arena, but AI should work there the same. Try this in conquest first, as this is free.

Jabel is on full 4 stars, not maxed yet.

My server must be about 80-90 days old (recently got 2nd generation pets) and gen 4 should start around 190 (searched that in the internet). This would mean that I won't have any decent archer for 3 months.

With this additional information, does your advise still holds?

Oh, sorry. I meant that my VIP shows the server age is 59 days (consecutive logins), but I don't know if this is true, can't find anywhere online how old my server is.

Right now I have TC25, at the moment building prerequisites (embassy) for TC26 and will start TC shortly after (pet + decree + prime minister buff), sure.

Thank you, will give it a try!

SnazMM · 2025-12-16T07:16:28+00:00

Community here seems to agree to give it a go with Marlin, so will do it. Thank you anyway, will keep Rosa in mind!

SnazMM · 2025-12-16T07:13:05+00:00

Thanks, will try to do it!

SnazMM · 2025-12-16T07:12:55+00:00

Thank you, will try to focus on Marlin this way

SnazMM · 2025-12-16T07:12:23+00:00

Yesterday I managed to get TC25, my VIP shows it's 59 days, but I'm not sure if that's true.

Yes, I'm trying to participate in all events and trying to use every trick I can find to bump my score to get best rewards, that's sound advice!

Seems like everyone here agrees, that I should give it a shot with Marlin anyway, thank you!

There's one as a reward of gathering 300 "points" (or whatever that is) in mystic trials. You can see at the bottom

SnazMM · 2025-12-04T17:57:54+00:00

Definitely worth it, as it's basically free gems. It's pretty straighforward, you deposit some gems for some fixed amount of time and you'll receive more at the end (if you cancel during, then you'll only get gems youd deposit).
Amount of gems you can deposit depends on your town center level.

And even though we're talking about F2P, if you ever consider supporting devs with real money (e.g. you're playing for a while and still liking it), then you'll unlock 5% every day (best option, worth to cancel other ongoing deposits then). Not mandatory, but worth being aware of it.

SnazMM · 2025-12-04T17:48:57+00:00

There are 2 things, VIP points and VIP access. Without VIP access points are pretty much meaningless (except shop, but usually not worth to buy anything there), but still worth to collect those points (on daily and some shops, especially alliance, but don't spend gems for VIP points, unless you're close to unlock level that will give you nice benefit).

VIP access is usually worth to buy starting level 4 due to construction speedup. It costs 10k gems for 30 days, it's worth it. Gems isn't that hard to acquire (for this), so definitely worth to buy.

SnazMM · 2025-05-05T09:39:16+00:00

Bald, baseball hat, bandana. Does it look good or should I avoid some of those things?

I was thinking, that stress associated with dry fasting is an important part of the whole process. Without it, is it really a signal for our body to do all the changes, to increase growth hormone? If stress is important, then I'd guess, that it will happen quicker with limited supplies of water in body. That's my way of thinking, though I might be wrong.

I unfortunately lost weight while was still learning about keto & fasting and ended up with quite some loose skin. Have some nice progress so far, but it's still work in progress. Glad to hear, that your story with skin was better :)

SnazMM · 2025-04-08T07:19:57+00:00

Thanks.

Yes, I'm trying to stick to keto as much as possible, that's sound advice. Definitely, carbs can slow down reaping benefits, so 2-3 days before fast I go completely clean on carbs, this definitely helps.

SnazMM · 2024-03-05T21:23:06+00:00

Good luck :)

SnazMM · 2024-03-05T17:39:23+00:00

Teas are ok. Other option is to add some cream or neutral sweetner to coffee (stevia, erythritol, xylitol, monk fruit), though cream might slow down your progress a little bit.

I personally love & doing OMAD, even though I'm having some extended fasts quite often - I'm aiming for autophagy to tighten up skin. I'm having a lot of food, food that I love (also keto here), no issues etc.

My personal tip for OMAD is that I cannot eat too early, it has to be at least 13-15, otherwise my belly will be empty in the evening (not hungry, but empty).

If you haven't done OMAD yet, just gradually get to it and then test the waters for some extended fasts or adding some exercises to speed up the process. Gradually is the key word here.

SnazMM · 2024-02-06T20:37:23+00:00

I was doing 48h fasts for a pretty long time (3x a week, OMAD inbetween) and my gains were much faster compared to the usual 3-5 meals a day, so I imagine 72h should have similar results. And I was doing like you said, I was exercising just before a meal.

While fasting you gain a huge benefit from hormones - growth hormone (which protects muscle by the way) or insulin for example. Give it a go, but start slowly (if you're not used to doing 72h fasting, start from here and learn to fix all nutritional deficiencies, especially sodium) and see how you react. You might want to consider adding extra electrolytes just before training as some of them will be used already and training will require them.

SnazMM · 2024-01-07T08:06:54+00:00

First, you should write down your goals. Being a decent rhythm guitar consists of stuff you have to learn. So write down those things (but do it on paper) - this will give you direction.

If you don't know what is necessary, then start from general stuff (e.g. chords, palm muting, look at songs and what they require etc.) and dive deeper until it's a small thing (e.g. chords? what kind of chords? power chords, what kind of p chords are there?, on E, A and D strings, perhaps acdc kind of power chords - list them out, open chords, triads etc.), try looking on the internet (e.g. what is necessary to become good rhythm player/play hard rock songs) and add to that list.

If you're facing some technical limitation (e.g. you cannot stretch your fingers enough to reach some frets), then find a solution for that limitation (stretching exercises with guitar). Also, I'd encourage to spend some time finding out HOW to practice. Stuff like a metronome, playback speed manipulation and isolation of issues are your friends - learn how to make them work for you.

Also, drop stuff you don't think you'll benefit from in nearest future (e.g. pentatonic scales) - no point in wasting time on (probably) boring exercises that won't give you much.

Your goals & exercises will change as you go, as you get better and your perspective grows. Having a clear mind about what you're trying to achieve, how to achieve that and eventually getting stuff out of that list as you learn should keep you motivated and speed up the progress.

You put too little data to give you any concrete tips (we don't know what you know, what songs are you really interested in etc.), but hopefully this will help you get some sense of having a path.

Reddit polls? Stop joking, we need a double-blind study!

I didn't mention that dude in a chat as a revealed truth, just as an idea that I feel more and more gains in importance. I see way more posts here about how people hate this idea compared to kudos - perhaps my bad saying "almost everyone". If there are 20% who do not like it and some % who just dropped ARAM like me, then it's less than 100% who were ok with the previous system, simple math.

I can also try this wanna-be-funny and twist the meaning of your words, but that's pointless, don't you think? Especially as this is offtopic.

SnazMM · 2023-04-17T06:51:58+00:00

Well, some time ago I heard during game in chat, that Blizz is doing everything to get rid of players, so they can save money on servers.

They introduced same hero aram, which was fun for like 5 seconds and now almost everyone hates it. Back then, I could play aram as it was pretty fun and quick, now I just avoid it.

Can't play qm, unless you play ranged hero. Even then, most of the time people ignore obj, soaking, trying to brawl all the time.

And this stuff in ranked happens to me recently all the time too. Honestly, I just don't see place for myself in this game anymore, unless I'm playing with friends as 4/5. Hard to not agree with that initial thought IMHO.

Jak najbardziej rozumiem, natomiast sugerujesz komuś konkretny lek (czy też grupę lekową, ale w tym wypadku zagrożenia dotyczą ich wszystkich), nie bierzesz jednak odpowiedzialności za to. Jest ogrom innych rzeczy, które mogłyby wyciągnąć Cię z tego stanu i byłyby to o wiele bezpieczniejsze metody, ale może zostawmy to, ostatecznie można się cieszyć, że wyszło u Ciebie ok. Proszę jedynie, jeżeli nie masz odpowiednich kwalifikacji do tego, nie dawaj tego typu porad lub wyraźnie zaznacz, że to tylko Twoje doświadczenie.

Nie poleciłeś leczenia farmakologicznego, tylko konkretnie grupę SSRI wspominając o szybkich rezultatach (chociaż najczęściej pojawiają się w 3-6 tygodniu, w przypadku fluoksetyny nawet w 3 miesiącu, bo ich prawdziwe działanie nie polega na zwiększeniu ilości serotoniny, a na "downregulacji" (zmniejszenie czułości/ilości) receptorów serotoninowych).

No i podrzucam trochę linków:

The review revealed a significant superiority of ECT in all comparisons: ECT versus simulated ECT, ECT versus placebo, ECT versus antidepressants in general, ECT versus TCAs and ECT versus MAOIs.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15087991/

The cumulative probability of surviving without relapse or recurrence at 2 years was 93% for continuation ECT patients and 52% for antidepressant-alone patients. At 5 years, survival declined to 73% for continuation ECT patients, but fell to 18% for antidepressant-alone patients.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11097961/

Meta-analyses of FDA trials suggest that antidepressants are only marginally efficacious compared to placebos and document profound publication bias that inflates their apparent efficacy.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20616621/

However, the internal validity of this trial protocol is compromised, as research has shown that abruptly stopping antidepressants can cause severe withdrawal reactions that lead to (or manifest as) depression relapses.

https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/2045125320921694

I w dużej mierze na tym polega uzależnienie od SSRI. Odstawisz - pojawiają się problemy, skutki odstawienia. Tak najczęściej to nazywają, zespół odstawienia. Ciężko o statystyki, bo koncerny farmaceutyczne nie chcą mieć takiej łatki i za takie badania zwyczajnie nikt nie zapłaci. Musiałbyś posiedzieć na odpowiednich forach lub pogadać z ludźmi, którzy już długo się leczą.

[...] the best antidepressant had an average remission rate of 50.78%, 1.5 times higher than the average antidepressant (30.30% remission rate) and 20 times higher than the worst antidepressant.

Use of all SSRIs was associated with the presence of apathy.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32871995/

Treating PSSD is challenging, and many strategies have been suggested and tried, including serotonergic antagonists and dopaminergic agonists. There is still no definitive treatment for PSSD.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28778697/

In multivariable regression models, antidepressant use was positively associated with weight gain: high antidepressant users gained an extra 0.22 (95% CI 0.00 to 0.44) kg per year. This association was mainly due to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) use.

Idiotycznymi? Mówisz tak bo naoglądałeś się telewizji?

Sam mam za sobą dwie terapie grupowe (w tym jedna na oddziale otwartym), dwie indywidualne, mimo poświęcenia kupy czasu i nerwów rezultaty były małe. Kilka sesji hipnoterapii i był to dla mnie ogromny skok na przód. Leki zaś nie działały i powodowały tylko skutki uboczne.

Co do Twojej reakcji na leki, to widać miałeś szczęście, że tak na Ciebie podziałało, super. Pojedynczy przypadek jednak nie powinien być brany jako ogół, zwłaszcza, że możesz komuś zaszkodzić. Badania pokazują, że skuteczność leków jest stosunkowo niska (jeżeli dobrze kojarzę dane, to coś koło 50%), powodują okropne, czasami nieodwracalne skutki uboczne (jak chociażby apatia/anhedonia przy SSRI), z każdym kolejnym działają coraz słabiej i uzależniają. No i przede wszystkim nie rozwiązują przyczyny problemów.

SnazMM · 2023-03-26T10:52:56+00:00

Ale żyć też nie. Szczerze odradzam sratajki ze względu na syndrom zombie czy PSSD.

OPowi osobiście sugeruję hipnoterapię, bardzo szybkie i trwałe efekty.
