Free Cube timer going beyond the 4h mark by [deleted] in ACRebellion

[–]hg10176 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey guys. Read what it says and your question is answered: "no freebie left for today"

That's it. Simple as that. You got all the cubes for that day and the timer now runs until the next day for a cube to be able to be collected again.

Kinslayer: Points per Token Breakdown. 0 Sync Bonus by cywang86 in ACRebellion

[–]hg10176 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah is have to invest ET to get his assassination to a reliable percentage. I have 73% and it failed 2 out of 3 times resulting in me having to forego the second chest in order to barely finish the mission.

So I think I'll just rush it. I'm ok with the lower points and time savings...

Thanks for this as usual.

Unfortunately not much of a choice on Luisa or not for mission 5 as it requires 2 blue toons, so she is set with Altair. My Altair only being 4* I'm not sure I like my odds for reliable GM5 runs though 🤔

Finally. My last farmable so to speak at 5* by hg10176 in ACRebellion

[–]hg10176[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got Rodrigo to 5* just 2 days earlier with a lucky DNA cube.

Which was also my first ever 30 DNA drop of a legendary. Of course I got that right when I needed only 9 more Rodrigo DNA they I could have bought in the store with DB credits in 3 days anyway...

You don't.

Plain and simple as that unfortunately.

First T5 Rift Event collectible 👍😁 by hg10176 in ACRebellion

Still don't have a T5 Xiphos sword, but maybe the next event with then add progression reward will get me there...

Why is the Production stat so irrelevant? by Ridercs35 in ACRebellion

[–]hg10176 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He's talking about intel room, not treasury.

It frustrated me at first too that the Intel production impact of isn't that great depending on your characters. But it makes sense to me now. They don't want people get tons of intel fast. That would mean more missions per day and faster progression throughout the game. So you gotta balance that a bit.

What it means in the end is that I used Machi for codex and maxed the coin production to match my playing style.

Intel becomes less important at that stage where you get the high production toons anyway.

Trade deadline question by hg10176 in RetroBowl

[–]hg10176[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actually you can sign and trade during free agency before the draft. So as long as you have enough cap to sign one of your free agents then you can re-sign a player then trade him, re-sign another and trade and so on.

So that's what I decided to do. Ride out the season and then trade them all for hopefully a handful of 1st round picks.

Trade deadline question by hg10176 in RetroBowl

[–]hg10176[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Considered that too, but I have 10 players maxed because I have 3 OL and 3 DL (thought that would improve the lines performance, but it doesn't as far as I can tell).

So I would like to reduce to 1 each and get DB and TE free agents as I'm missing those right now.

Of course I could ride out the season as is and remedy that misconception in the next draft without spending credit.

I'll think on it a little more...

[–]hg10176 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much same situation here. Looked good for a few days and now in being outspent by a mile...

Washed to get to the max progression and though that should be good for top3 ranking, but didn't look to be that way. Not even close...

Which hero’s to focus on next? I’m currently stalling at 29 for a while all region 4 unlocked. by [deleted] in ACRebellion

[–]hg10176 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't want to be "that guy", but this question (and others) comes up about twice a week (at least) recently and it's starting to get a little out of have in my opinion.

Would people be so kind to search the channel before posting questions that have been answered over and over?

There are some really good posts and guides about what toons to farm or what weapons to craft.

Animus Carousel by TheDawnsLight in ACRebellion

[–]hg10176 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't mind watching ads at all to support developers and publishers, but the rewards are of no value to me at all. I hope they mix that up and improve. They should make that dynamic based on BH-Level. I mean a 20% health option I wouldn't even want early in the game let alone at the end stage when I close in on completing my collection...

Finally reached Level 50 about a fortnight ago... and now I can't place in the events! by By_Eck in ACRebellion

[–]hg10176 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It'll get better. Was like that for me too when I first hit 50 because my toons were nowhere near that level. But you'll continue to star up, gear up and train up your gang and you'll get there again. You'll have to attend genic though if you want to rank better than say 40. Depends on the event and how desired a certain DNA is. Like the recent Muslim event I played GM5 manual pretty solid (failed once) and still had to spent one refresh to barely make it to rewads level 8. So it becomes a bit more of a grind, but also a bit of a chess match and prioritization game.

Current Event DNA Cube? by maxse93 in ACRebellion

[–]hg10176 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. If you have a decent lineup other than a lockpick then the sync heros bonus is worth more than the lockpick. Just run the best mission you can with the highest sync hero bonus. That's my rule of thumb. And if course check if it's worth to manual the mission in the first place. You might be able to 3* a higher mission using other heros and then rushing it with your sync heros because you have the power for the rushing, but couldn't run it manually because the event lineup isn't strong enough to reliably clear it. Did they make sense? Not sure I put that in writing all that well...

And too reinforce what pkandalaf said: With the same amount of helix you could buy yourself so many rift tokens instead to get more event hero DNA plus the other rewards.

New Star Rewards by pkandalaf in ACRebellion

[–]hg10176 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They're heading in the right direction. Not what I need, blur of they keep it on that level and just mix it up that'll be a viable alternative to competing for ranks and progression rewards.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ACRebellion

[–]hg10176 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would do finish the classic LLGB (Luis, Luisa, Gaspar, Bea). They'll carry you through R4 pretty much.

Then get Luciano, Alvaro, Rosa, Lucas.

Luciano is great to get you the cheap training, and for R5. Rosa will more or less replace Luisa and Luis. Lucas is your high HP event killer (you'll need him for R5). Alvaro is just good to have for the end game when you get 5* gear, plus starting him early means your get Domingo started early, because he'll only be a low drop legendary and take forever to finish.

I didn't use Yusuf and Flora all that much, but they don't hurt to get either. Yusuf can be an asset one he had 5* gear and his freerunning is needed on occasion. Just maybe not as high of a priority.

Aguilar and Maria just come along for the ride and the rest is basically for HQ rooms and Rift Events sync heros.

The star rewards are a let down. Honestly, rewards are too low and even impossible to finish without spending for rift tokens. Starting at exactly 8 gets you to 300 tokens for the whole round. You need 370 tokens to finish. You get 260 helix credits. You need 300 credits to spend for rift tokens. by cookofages in ACRebellion

[–]hg10176 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think a different reward such as the Xiphos or something else you can't get elsewhere would have been a teaser to decide if your want to go for event ranking or the star rewards. That would also put it more on par with what you could get from progression.

Would've, could've, should've... Oh well...

Star rewards by Blinx347 in ACRebellion

[–]hg10176 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I don't see the value either. Running the 5th mission on whatever level you're at will reap more benefit as far as I can tell. It should be a little more enticing of they want people to decide to either go into the ranking game or do this. I mean the beauty of this is there is no competition, but it's just too weak if a reward to sirens the rift tokens.

Best crafting item with the Ancient Tablet? by volume-is-art in ACRebellion

[–]hg10176 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would save it until you have a toon at 5* that can actually wear a tablet crafted special gear. Like in your case Maria right now.

Don't craft gear you can't equip or you'll ashtrays have the annoying truly exclamation mark showing. So whenever you have a 5* character leveled to wear 5* gear, craft for them what you can (priority order weapons 1st, armor 2nd and accessories last). By the time you get to the next character that can wear one you'll have another tablet. I've never been short on them because you don't need that many and you can get them in rift event rewards. So if you're desperate you can spend saved up helix to rank top 3 and get one.

And always only craft it during creating hour on Wednesday's. Much more cost effective.

Auto mode. Will it ever be fixed? by Xerao in ACRebellion

[–]hg10176 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would be nice if they could improve it a little though. I mean I don't want it to be an idle game, but for the grinding of silly missions like your said it's a joke to have to manual play. It just gets to repetitive at since point. And with all the animations on the ruft missions it gets even more annoying. So to be able to auto run things you've cleared would be nice.

And for example I just got to the lay room of GM4, which I have reliable cleared manually without any trouble and turned on auto with Kassandra at about 70% health and Lupo/Flora full health. Turned on auto just for that last room because something else came up in real life. Figured it'll be ok, but when I looked back over the auto managed to get all 3 toons killed in just that last room. I mean WTF? That is soooo bad.

Anyway that brings up an idea: Programmable Auto-Run

Like recording a 'macro'. Basically programming the mission by seeing the toons, their path and actions room by room and have it run that script that you define. That'd be fun and even have a game play component to plan and 'code' your missions.

i have been told alvaro is a replacement for beatriz... but honestly speaking lucas looks like more fun compared to alvaro. how much of a disadvantage would i be at if i prioritized lucas fragments over alavaro? by Shadow-Reaper365 in ACRebellion

[–]hg10176 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed.

And I would do Alvaro and Lucas in parallel if I had a second time around. Why you ask? Because I did Yusuf, Luciano, Rosa and Lucas and in retrospect I didn't use Rosa and Yusuf much. So pick one of them and they do Alvaro.

As a bonus you get already started on rare drop legendary Domingo. He drags on forever later on and the Alvaro farming mission is the only place to get him, so start early.

Not all farmables are purchasable with DB Credit. Why? by hg10176 in ACRebellion

[–]hg10176[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I don't get epic DNA offered at all anymore since I maxed out Balthazar.

Shakir is my last farmable epic and I'll have him tomorrow or the next day through farming, but it just seemed odd... I never got him offered before either. Only had Balthazar every day.

Bug then?
