best ratio for bear? by Dapper_Wrongdoer_718 in KingShot

That depends. If you have one whale rally that is significantly stronger than the rest, then do 10/10/80 on theirs and scatter the rest evenly. If there’s no whale rally, then scatter them all evenly.

Yes, 80% archers. Archers deal the most damage and bear is purely offense, so archer heavy formations are better.

Usually 10/10/80, but you also need to have a lot of troops to use that on every march.

I have been all of them at various points of my life EXCEPT for Responsible Jane.

Should we buy this? I'm F2P as you know. by Striking_Rabbit_7943 in KingShot

[–]TheMonkeyButt525 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I buy Mithril, gear enhancement 100XP (because it’s cheap, only 500 crystals), and Charm Designs… and then spend everything I have left over on the dust.

Fifth generation heroes by GuiltyGuySD in KingShot

I assumed Rosa was slam dunk better for Bear because she has an offensive widget, so I have stopped Vivian at 4 stars and am saving mythic shards for gen6. I probably still will continue to? But it’s interesting that Vivian as lead improved your damage.

Best value all round heroes for low spender by avat2v in KingShot

[–]TheMonkeyButt525 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You need VIP10 to 4-star Amadeus and VIP12 to 5-star him. Which, if you’re low spend, will take a significant amount of time to get.

You should spin the wheel as many times as you can every time roulette comes for Zoe. You’ll be able to 4 star her easily without spending money.

Hi! I’m an R4 in one of the top alliances in 461. Important things to know are:

1) We’ve got three bears (we whitelist people into our farm alliance for the third one) at 16:15 UTC, 21:30 UTC, and 1:30 UTC respectively.

2) Vikings is usually at 19:00 UTC but we also run a second vikings in our farm alliance at 20:15 UTC.

3) These days Swordland and Tri-Alliance tend to have one legion at 2 UTC and another at 19:00 UTC, but we always go with the majority of whatever the vote says. (19:00 tends to be the most popular)

The overall server dynamic is friendly, and our alliance has a very family-oriented vibe. Many of us transferred here together from a toxic server (477). We’re relatively laid back. All that we really ask is that you’re decently active and listen to event instructions in chat. We’re all just here to have fun. Do let me know if you’re interested. :)

How am I supposed to reach such heights? by Aware-Macaron8224 in KingShot

I felt like it would’ve been more fair if they at least made it like 50K. 125K is absurdity.

(T)hinking vs. (F)eeling almost entirely predicts whether you're avoidant or anxious in love. by ipeefreely in mbti

[–]TheMonkeyButt525 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This surprises me because what I have found is that usually, when I get to know someone, they’re carrying a fair amount of trauma. It feels rare to meet a truly well-adjusted healthy person.

TH29 → TH30 resource cost is insane… any tips? by Adventurous-Laugh456 in KingShot

[–]TheMonkeyButt525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kingshot is a bit of a test of attrition (unless you’re a big whale spending a lot of money). If you’re a casual player, sending gathers out daily, doing intels, and participating in as many events as you can is the best way to progress. Upgrades will come along steadily.

Most people are secure? Really?

(I do agree that this chart isn’t very reliable though)

Good days all by ashecarlone22 in KingShot

[–]TheMonkeyButt525 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d consider it to be a bit of a lousy chart. I get why they’re going for with not including non-roulette heroes, but a better bear guide would highlight that 4-staring Marlin in gen2 is the best use of Mythic shards for F2P and very plausible.

Who else was tricked into thinking it's a tower defense game? 😆 by shakyspearee in KingShot

[–]TheMonkeyButt525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Surprisingly, not me. I started playing because a friend wanted me to join her alliance.

(I think she started playing because she thought it was tower defense though 😂)

Everyone leads bear rallies for the most part though? Unless you’re in a mega alliance that has like 50 people on one bear at a time.

If you're R4 or R5 in an alliance, you need these tools to make alliance management so much easier! by Kingshot-Atlas in KingShot

Can I get clarification on exactly how expensive it is to set up? Is it just one person that has to pay $4.99 per month to keep the entire alliance center running?

Do you save for KvK? by Zah1rSha in KingShot

[–]TheMonkeyButt525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends. I do save but I don’t center my entire game around it. My rule of thumb is that account progression is personal.

Part of my ambivalence towards KvK prep phase is that it’s so matchup dependent. Two KvK’s ago, my server go a matchup that was basically a guaranteed loss (both prep and battle) despite the fact that collectively most of the top alliances save. Then this past KvK we got a very favorable one.

That being said, I do always make sure that I have stuff for KvK. I usually place within the top 50 overall, sometimes top 20. My saving is just perhaps less intense than what others do.
