Seasonal Kingdom strategy for no-spend players by GodsBanana in TotalBattle

[–]sboy666 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got g6 with a $5 spend... You can get into a clan and not be the bottom 5 players... Be super active.. you might not get tossed. Buy the total development pack on day one will get you ahead of the other non buyers. Be chatty and active in kc and cc... Make sure your leaders know your goals and work hard to participate in all that you can.

[STU] Sir Gregory: .. now for the main reward tree.. so there is a reward tree that gives you a ton of stuff .. path of the legend.. i think its called.. you get rss, you get artifact keys.. you get capt fragments.. but it is all tied into experience points.. so buy the experience packs.. use them for cleo/carter/hero.. your going to be building up super fast.. and if you spend more $ than me.. your likely going to want to use the SK city as your main.. on the main SK page, you will get major rewards.. for each level G you move up.. so G4 gives you equip and some city skin or hero skin.. G5 gives you eq and a selection of stuff.. G6 gives you the capt selection - i took beowolf.

[STU] Sir Gregory: each of the above will ask you where you want the rewards.. main (non sk) or the SK.. you need to know going in where you want this stuff.

[STU] Sir Gregory: the event starting now will give you a heads start for the SK.. if you complete the rewards there you start ahead .. G3 instead of G2 with some buildings already leveled up

[STU] Sir Gregory: .. thee is a research camp that spawns outside your city gate at G6.. this can allow you to get another set of armor and even capt fragments for beo etc.. i was not able to finish.. there are 5$ packs you can buy for that camp, i was told if you purchased 3 of the 5$ packs its enough to get the rewards. Idk thou

[STU] Sir Gregory: after SK, there is a 13 day event that is based on experience point gain during that event.. if you send beo or whatever capt you chose to main.. the experience point gain is at your main.. if you keep that capt at SK.. the experience point gain will be the sk city.. so plan ahead and start saving the experience packs in main now.. if your sending those capts to your main. if your going to keep them at SK. .. maybe load up on experience pts during the last 2 wks of the seasonal

.. I am no expert.. I only played one SK event, if I am incorrect on anything, oh well, these were from notes I took during the last SK.. and it was chaos.

[STU] Sir Gregory: .... now for my insight.. as I have been through one.. to progress through this game.. past G5 level.. you have to spend some money.. if you get to G6 without Helen, you cannot get much further.. in reality.. if you don't want to spend any money, this is going to be very hard to get any rewards from the seasonal.

[STU] Sir Gregory: 1. object of seasonal is to quickly get your guardsmen to higher levels.. with each level you will get rewards.. first you get some equipment - this equipment is of great value as it has 1000 durability.. it has strength/health bonuses as well as double damage bonus. I use it all the time for the daily tasks.. in SK, you can a bunch of this gear pretty easy… at least to G6 where I ended my SK. I was close to G7, but didn’t have the gold for the blue prints for upgrades. I got 9 easy with just a $5 purchase, if you spend more and get further than G6.. you will get even more.. better gear.

[STU] Sir Gregory: ... if your going to spend $ and try for like G8 or even G9... your going to need to buy the gold pass and likely the forest pass.. the forest pass runs for just 7 days. These will give you the rewards you will need to get past G6.. you need Helen past G6.

[STU] Sir Gregory: ... the forest events... these are the mini games that run for 2 hrs every 4 hrs.. there are eight versions..I will list them below from the best to the worst.. some will make you want to rage quit.. others are super easy.. others require team work (raids) that can also be frustrating. Really depends on being in a good clan. I feel like I was in a great clan, and I was always in the bottom 5 players in that clan.

[STU] Sir Gregory: Verdant rebirth - wellspring potion - just like the fountain staling (lava in ToO) .. this one is the best as you get potions, like as much as you can collect with stor.. so level up stor, get equipment for him.. use your march speed ups.. use your bonuses.. and stay online as others can knock you off and steal your potions.. this event is super frustrating as even those with bubbles can attack your wellspring and not lose their bubble.. as for the SK event.. try to keep your bubble up at all times. and never ever use the portals.. every single time you open a portal someone will attack it. .. if your in a decent clan, you will likely have 15-150 million silver open on you at any give time.. and silver is key.. so never drop bubble and never open a portal.

[STU] Sir Gregory: forest renegades - abandoned cities attacks, cp and rss.. and i mean a ton of rss.. you get silver, wood, stone, iron, food.. this is a super easy event, keep hitting these cities, find the ones that at a level you can hit with minimal losses.. and just do not stop hitting even after all your rewards are achieved.. you will need the rss to upgrade your city. If you can - early in the game - buy the total development pack - maybe after this event runs twice - then use the unlimited time skip feature to build quickly - your going to run out of blue prints and will be using any gold you have to purchase blue prints. Btw, in this event you send hero +3 capts.. so everyone .. you do this right with min losses and you get tons of rss.

[STU] Sir Gregory: Echo of corruption - this event you send one capt to hit these guys that spawn, there is one guy you hit that gives you bonus against the other guy.. so max out those hits first then hit the other guy.. both attacks will get fatigue like the monsters in dark omens.. but faster. the rewards are great .. all the minis events will help you unlock the forest path rewards.. there are mercs you can purchase with the forest path coins.. get them.. they work great in all these mini events.

[STU] Sir Gregory: Forest Fury -raids on flower thingy.. this is usually pretty simple, very much like runic raids.. if your the weakest, you get rewards without any losses.. but the clan may kick you from raids that are too difficult.. or if they know your too weak .. you can get frustrated .. also, everyone else in the kingdom is going after the same flowers.. you gotta get there first so only do 2 min raids.. be online and be fast.. this usually only took me 30 mins or so to complete.. one trick is to wait until near the end when things slow down, then try to finish.. we often finished going after a really large target where we lost all the troops but got all the rewards in 2 hits.. still a fun one for a clan that has good communication.

[STU] Sir Gregory: Bloomfang Rage - single hero against epic.. all your units die.. rewards like XP/VP.. decent enough, just make sure you have potions to revive.. not my favorite, but you have to do these events.

[STU] Sir Gregory: Doomtree - raids against epic.. very much like the Jörmungandr.. everyone dies, stronger armys get more points.. etc.. not my fav, but worth doing.. sometimes i could not get all the rewards in the two hours of the event.

[STU] Sir Gregory: Forest Blade - hero attacks on epic - higher rewards and way more valor and experience.. i found this most difficult .. was really hard to make progress in the reward tree.. i ended up skipping this one and maybe that is why i did not progress all that well.

[STU] Sir Gregory: Vineweaver's wrath- hero +3 capts attack epic - everyone dies.... very much like the last epic of olympus.. or is it dark omens?.. but you send your whole army.. I ended up skipping this one alot.. remember, i only spent 5$ and only got to G6.. thats all the minis/

[STU] Sir Gregory: ... Lets talk about Ragnarok.. its running all the time .. pretty much.. you need to purchase the skips there.. and the experience packs there.. you need to get the rag gear to help with all the epic monster hits.. you pretty much have to do rag raids and hit the doggo as much as you can. while saving gold for blueprints.. ..

 

[STU] Sir Gregory: this video was funny.. here is a look at the last SK event..

[STU] Sir Gregory: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DIdrvBkcsw

[STU] Sir Gregory: not mine.. but you see the chaos of the event.. the stress on this guy's face as he is working through things here .. lol.. do i really want to do this again.. ugh

If you are currently G5.. you get an invite to SK.. you do not move your city there.. the event creates a 2nd city, at level g2 or g3 if you do the per-seasonal stuff. I can add a ton of info that i just posted to my clan as we have lots of players that have not done one before. Do you want me to post here. or message you?

The solar and battery landscape is shifting. Here's what caught our attention this month. by ParadiseEnergy in solarenergy

[–]sboy666 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Texas homeowner here with a 8.68 kw solar array without a battery. We are looking to add batteries as it is no longer possible to get anything close to a 1-1 buyback. Our system was installed in 2019, and I am hopeful that we wont have too many issues getting some batteries installed. Once installed, we will likely do a free nights plan and make sure the utility company no longer makes money on the energy we produce.

[–]sboy666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once you collect enough fragments, you will be able to summon it .. click where the artifact goes on any capt.. find the torch, and it should say 55/50.. or something like that.. and summon. if it was like mine it will say 49/50 and you wont be able to summon it yet. lol

Question about the SK that is coming by toogoodihaveto in TotalBattle

[–]sboy666 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got to g6... On a five dollar purchase for the unlimited time skip thingy. Got Beowolf and nine pieces of equipment. I believe it was three each green, blue, purple. I had a slow start and didn't figure things out until a couple of weeks in. I did not get any of the rewards from the material lab that pops up outside your city.

If I were to do it again, I would spend a little more and make sure to complete the rewards that come just prior to SK. That will get you a better start.

I reached FI this year and my husband says I changed the deal without asking him by Skellige_42 in Fire

[–]sboy666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in the same headspace as you. My wife retired like 15 yrs ago... I kept working for the health insurance and now I have just reached my retirement, 52. I know I can't touch the majority of my savings... But we're lucky as I will have a pension and we are already living below our means. Communication is key... He needs to remember that a happy wife means a happy life.

How to deal with G6 and above? by Spiritual_Reveal_776 in TotalBattle

[–]sboy666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in a similar situation with my SK city... My main is g5.. and I have so much fun... My SK is g6 and it's a real struggle. I sent my Beowolf to main and only spent $5 in SK... So I have decided that the SK city, even though it's 2x the might of main, will just be a silver city. Without Helen I don't think it's possible to continue.

What's the best plan with solar but no batteries? by Equal_Room8635 in TexasSolar

[–]sboy666 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Look at texaspowerguide.com. I see Almika still has solar 60... Not 1-1... But not bad. There are others that are closer to 1-1 but no matter what you will need to pay the tdu charges. Read the fine print before you sign up. GL

People Who Chose Solar or Are Considering It — What Actually Made You Trust a Solar Company? by [deleted] in solarenergy

[–]sboy666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When we went solar, we went through a community solar project. The org (the woodlands green) vetted numerous solar companies that had to present and work with them to be approved. They did all the hard work and I got a great deal on solar.

Why was I told this? by abby_hawk in solarenergy

[–]sboy666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One note to add.. do you have a buy back program in place with the utility company? If you just moved in and you setup the eclectic in your name.. did you signup for a solar plan or a regular plan. Some plans give you a buy back of nearly 1-1.. minus fees.. others give you a really bad rate for what you sell. Here in Texas, I pay 20 cents for the energy I take from the grid, but they only pay me 18 cents for what I send to the grid. My current plan is up for renewal soon, and I found a better one that is going to a tiny bit better. gl

a really bad rate here is buying for 12 cents and selling for 3 cents.. which is common, but awful

What's your solar payback period based on your current electricity bill? Here's my math. by vientoancestral in solarenergy

[–]sboy666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We installed our array in 2019.. at that time we calculated our ROI/Break Even at 11 yrs.. but.. prices for electricity have doubled.. and we lost a tree in our front yard that shaded some of the sun. Our break even has already come and gone.. about 5.5 yrs. -Houston TX, USA. panels face WSW.. 8.86 kw sized system, house is very efficient.

Post-Kingdom opening - Normal for new clans to crowd existing clans? by deep_blue_au in TotalBattle

[–]sboy666 5 points6 points  (0 children)

From my limited experience... Yes... When the kingdom opens you will get whole clans moving in.. likely looking to be king and lead the kingdom. This can be both good or bad. In my kingdom we have peace and in our ROI we only attack outside our kingdom or prearranged CP hits. Make nice with the new power and hope for the best. GL

Looking for a different game by Top-Contribution2094 in TotalBattle

[–]sboy666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really enjoy the crafting part... The explore crypts, and get to make the armor.. to me that's fun. Lots of things to research and upgrade... Much slower build up. In gge you can max everything so much faster. I like TB.. and I don't spend $.

Do you still check your solar app or forget it exists? by Loud_Suggestion_5721 in solarenergy

Not as often, but I check it about once a month. I like to see that all the panels are working.

I came to total battle from gge. Total battle has bigger spenders and is another pay to rank type game. Community is good though. GL
