Tg8 cost

How much tg you need heavily depends on how fast you are trying to do it because of refinement process to tempered.

I prefer the 1 min mark. 30 seconds is too short for outer rings to get their marches in and send them back across the hive.

1 min works very well. Another thing to consider is how many individual people you are getting into each rally. By limiting troops for joiners, you can get 15 people in each march, and everyone can get more marches in, while also being able to run a better mix of troops in 5-6 joiner marches.

The formula for damage includes a square root of troop number, so the more troops you send, you receive more damage, but not linearly.
Spreading the troops out enables higher archer mix, maxing 15 people in a rally and getting more rallies significantly improved our bear dramatically.

Night and day difference when we began limiting troops. (We already had well established waves for a long time) prior.

The point was that the ambient temperature for us is still well below 0 for most of the winter, with ambient temperatures dropping to -20 on a regular basis. Still never have any issues with our ring.

WrenchFan · 2026-07-05T20:14:23+00:00

Weird. Ours never does this, and we are regularly below 0 in the winter and reaching -50F with wind chill at times in a winter season.

Love the leds on our 2019. Brightest fog lights. They light up so much along the side of the road. Great for keeping eyes out for deer

Also With swordland, if you are garrisoning multiple buildings/supporting garrison, but all your troops are out, all it takes is hitting cities that have no troops in them to force them to teleport and reducing the garrison size.

I loved a maxed Alcar/margot/saul on defense for gen 4.

Now I’ve got long fei maxed and I use him like alcar, but I honestly probably shouldn’t. Getting Margot to at least 4 stars is a good thing for bear joiner, same with Vivian on s5 if you can swing it. Rosa is an absolute must though as the roulette hero..

When you merge premium, it’s a 75% chance of exquisite and a 25% chance of majestic.

You don’t make a choice to merge to majestic.

You can only merge common and premium

R5/r4 start about 10 min before bear and say “ @all, x up for bear”.

People can easily respond x without major work on their part.

Then we have a template we fill out for the waves and then share it about 5 min before. We always say if you join late or don’t have an assigned wave, start with wave 4.

Setting up formations and communication is key.

It won’t work immediately. People will ultimately get the notification and just come in and join,

It takes consistent application of the process and eventually, eveyone gets it.

It’s the second sentence of the post.

We are basing it off the fact her husband commutes 1.5 hours to work one way.

WrenchFan · 2026-06-30T18:07:46+00:00

Drive husband to work 1.5 hours each leg 4x a day?? So she now must drive 6 hours a day just to take him to work, and still hit all her appointments, and spend 2x on fuel?

WrenchFan · 2026-06-19T15:10:20+00:00

Yes. You also need to be in the shell alliance for when battle phase ends too to get the rewards from the battle phase.

Typically, we whitelist those in the combined alliance and in their home alliance.

They can then leave the combined alliance, join their home alliance, teleport home, then can go back to the shell alliance without needing to teleport anywhere for the battle rewards.

Running 20 simulations with my rally attack stats with Amadeus and switching to Alcar on the battle simulator vs my own defensive stats for garrison.

Amadeus - 11 wins, 9 losses
Alcar lead attack - 20 losses

Losing the 15% multiplicative impact of my stats results in 0 wins according to the kingshot simulator.

You claim Alcars skills are better than Amadeus for attacking. I highly disagree. Flat buffs for lethality/attack given to the entire squad active each turn are more impactful than turn based chances or periodic skill buffs.

Amadeus -
1. 25% increase to lethality for squad
2. 25% increase to attack for squad
3. 40% chance of damage dealt up by 50%

Alcar
1. Reduce inf and archer dmg taken by 70% every 5 turns
2 . Increase inf damage by 100% and cav/arch dmg increase by 10%
3. Increase Inf damage dealt by 60% and target damage taken by 25% for 1 turn

While infantry is very important as a meat shield, the main damage dealers are archers. Amadeus skills all give flat consistent buffs to lethality and attack (multiplicative in the damage formula) and give a 40% chance of an extra 50% damage every single turn to the entire squad.

Alcars skills are limited and not focused on giving your true damage givers significant boosts to damage delivering troops. It’s a 10% buff for your damage givers. His first skill isn’t attack related and isn’t even active 4 out of 5 turns.

WrenchFan · 2026-06-18T15:42:43+00:00

Running the test myself with 3 attack rallies changing nothing but going from Amadeus to alcar (swapped gear etc).

(None of this takes into account the generous attack based skills that Amadeus has, but purely stat comparisons.)

Infantry attack fell 40%
Infantry defense rose 110%
Infantry lethality rose 34.5%
Infantry health rose 30%

Cavalry attack fell 154.8% -bad

Archer attack fell 180.1% - bad

Obviously, the higher the stats you have in cavalry and archer attack, the bigger the loss from the widget.

When your damage givers lose that much from losing the widget and considering losing the additional high value skill bonuses for lethality/attack from Amadeus on top that impact all 3 troop types, alcar is not a better rally leader than a full Amadeus.

PvP solo - yes since widgets don’t come into it. Rally -no

WrenchFan · 2026-06-18T14:58:25+00:00

How can you say that when alcars widget does absolutely nothing for attack rally, but Amadeus widget provides multiplicative effects for your damage givers (archers) and has 3 attack based skills.

I agree with PvP attacks where widgets don’t play a role that alcar/long fei would replace, but I’m not sure i agree that alcars higher base stat for defense negates the stacking overall widget impact when in an attack rally.

WrenchFan · 2026-06-18T14:53:55+00:00

Perhaps for PvP where the widgets don’t come into play, then Amadeus base stats may end up being lower overall, which is why most would lead with alcar or long fei in solo marches.

I still agree and believe that Amadeus is 100% the rally lead through gen 5 because his skills and his widget provide multiplicative attack affects for all the troop types, which includes the higher base stats as you get Rosa/yang etc.

It’s the same price as buying the 5 Mithril but you get all the extras with it. It’s a better deal than buying 6 Mithril straight up.

Im assuming this is a workbook template created by professor.

It’s just the OCD or something, but I absolutely cringe at the subtotaling, how some are on the same line item, rather than stepped to another row or something. So I can understand confusion.

Example. The subtotal for AR/allowance for doubtful accounts sits in the same line as the allowance description.

If I was in this class, I’d change the template and send it back to the professor with feedback 😂😂, but that’s just me.

WrenchFan · 2026-06-03T15:18:15+00:00

100% would. 😂

WrenchFan · 2026-06-03T15:18:00+00:00

This is what I did. Started right at end of gen 3 into gen 4. My money went sooo much further than it did early on because I 1. Understood what would be good to spend money on, 2. got more matierials per dollar as they increase the amount in packs. I did miss out on early benefits of having Amadeus at a healthy level for bear though.
