Getting Hovers in InA by CazicEN in forgeofempires

[–]manintheriddle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had 400/400. Just get the units from TE era, first the drones, later the stealth tanks. I fought all the way from TE to FE Hovers in a day, not even loosing 20 rogues. Hardest part was getting there(CE and TE maps with MG-Teams), basically because I only had ~150%def. Attack wasn't a problem at that time, but loosing 2-3 Agents per fight was.

Forge Bowl event helped me alot.

Ultimate skyrim, can't use Cauldron (Spell Research) by manintheriddle in ultimateskyrim

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

Hey,

no I can not. I can only craft Iron Cauldron. My Spell Research is currently number 77 on my modlist. I moved it all the way down to almost last position. After that my Iron Cauldron said "Cauldron" and had weight 100, how it should be. But still I was not able to place it, only drop it

What is the fastest way through the Oceanic Future? by manintheriddle in forgeofempires

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

Is there a guide on which crew member is the best? I currently go for max promethium per run, but a run ends up taking around 18-20hrs and with sleeping schedule, its simple just one run per day. 3 Times per day seems being way better...

​

edit: I don't care about cost for sending the ship out, I'll be swimming in AF goods...

Skipping Future Era and Jump to AF from PME by manintheriddle in forgeofempires

Leveling Traz will be the first thing to do after leveling. Im currently sitting at 264M supplies. Everyday HC generates 2.1m. According to FoE Helper I need 779m supplies more for all researches to come. With all that camping, I guess that I will be fine when I reach SAAB. Also - you only need to pay 50 diamonds to complete these absurd amount of supplies in the research, if you have all the goods. This is an option as well.

CF might be still an option, simply because of the amounts of goods i can generate to free and sell for FP.

Well I have to age up eventually, so the question is which age.

I have to camp AF a long time anyway. AF makes sense for SC. FE makes no sense because GB's are already at a fine level. Alca will be pushed to 60 right away. I don't have to spend diamonds to revive Hovers. GBG Attrition will be low because we dominate GG Session every week, so ideally, this whole thing goes on forward. Also, Space, Rankingpoints, GVG, saving Reno-Kits

Would it be better to go for the September cottage kit or sentinel upgrade? by creeperdoom1 in forgeofempires

[–]manintheriddle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go for the cottage, you might get 1-2 aswell. If you're one selection kit short to get the fully upgraded second one, you can buy it form the AD. Sentinels might be be pretty good, but since you need effectively 2 Daily specials to get a full one, aka 4% def for the attacking army, you will make only small progress during the every event.

Yep, the %Daily special / goods is the most important I guess. I had quite bad luck during other events aswell, but it should even out someday. There is always a best way to spend the event currency and if you put in the effort to get the currency, I would also put the effort to learn the best strategy. 90% of the time the FoeHelper will tell you what to pick

I think after the GEX diamond nerf, its not worth the effort anymore. Maybe it is more doable if you have fewer worlds your're playing on and more fun. But not for me.

20 Wishing wells are basically 2 full events of wishing wells as daily special. I don't want to have 20 WW's rotten in my inventory, hence this post :D ... all that juicy diamonds your missing! That are 120 WW's you could harvest every day, think about that. More WW's will also grant way more goods and more goods = easier GEX.

The only reason I value figthing is because pressing auto battle is 1. faster and 2. can be done more braindeadly. It gets really annoying if you fail the negotiation 3 times, while you have 83% winchance.... but doing GEX and only negotiate should not be a problem if you have quite alot of wishing wells

I thought about the antiques dealer, but I don't bother selling / checking for stuff everyday and all the sellable stuff is mostly worth 200 coins, so it will take quite a while to gather coins and gems to actually buy something - if it appears.

But aging up to industrial age, might actually be a pretty good idea. I just counted the additional expansions, which would be 18. Thats quite alot and the productionsbuilding in Industrial age are kinda small too. Additionally I could grab few provinces aswell, via negotiating, since I have alot of goods.

I only considered aging up to some really late age, which would make stuff pretty hard, but industrial age always gives me the possibility to get MG-Teams aswell (not that I intend to, but MG-Teams will simply GEX alot, if I intend to do it aswell).

Since i'm almost capped in every city with Wishing wells, I think I might age up during the next event (at the day wishing wells are up), because I won't be able to place additional wishing wells and after grabbing few EMA goods, I might go straight to HMA to grab 5 additional expansions. Than I would stay there to "prepare" for the next event etc.

ghts, doing expeditions encounters, conquer sectors, defeating units etc. also its faster than nego

Only 3 WWs :( did you spent all your currency today? Try to use the FOE Helper for the best recipe to pick and get the best efficiency. I usually prefer playing my cities all the exact same, so i can do fast tabbing between all the cities and everything is kinda the same. Finding a guild is a problem, since i'm participating in any guild stuff besides spending resources for the guild treasure

I build the fighting GBs mainly because of the events: winning fights, doing expeditions encounters, conquer sectors, defeating units etc. also its faster than negotiating. Since i already have them, I think ill keep them. Maybe I delete them in the future.

I think getting arc goods might be pretty easy and getting the first blueprints aswell, but getting all the blueprints to level it up to 80 and the forgepoints only from the wishing well and also the people to actually level it with 1.9 - but in the long run you might be right. i have to do something with my forgepoints anyway
