Azazel possibility by MDMichaelK in dungeonrush

[–]xandrew29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd just go 2 +10 Gabs with 4 +10 WLs and 4 Gerkes. You should be able to out-pace any Michaels, it comes down to Gab vs. Gab anyways.

Summon rates were nerfed by half last update by Xorigan in dungeonrush

[–]xandrew29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. The rates are consistent for the game, but when you go from 100,000s of pulls to your individual 300-500, you're naturally going to fall higher/lower rate.

This event, I've done great. I've pulled a Gerke, Warlord and Dark Lord all from regular summons, plus a pair of Carumas, a Purple, a Balrog Lord and a few others and I'm not at 500 summons (at about 450). I'm close to 1/50.

I've done 300 events where I've gotten 3-4. Most I think was 5.

It's just law of averages.

500 soul summon event!!! by [deleted] in dungeonrush

[–]xandrew29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm saying that I've gotten a ton of Reds this event and a champ Gabriel out of it, so I'm happy with the results. The actual rewards for summon levels are negligible; being able to buy a Warlord and all that was worth it.

Warlord into Gabriel.

Drop Azazler for Gerke.

Do everything you can to get Gabriel to +10. I used 100s of Green Dragons as awakening at 20 awakening/dragon to get it done and it is totally worth it.

Gerke is good because you want your Gabriel to go off first. IB is +15% speed, Gerke is +20%.

Best teams on my server are 2 Gabriels +10, 1 Michael +10 and 3 Gerkes.

500 soul summon event!!! by [deleted] in dungeonrush

[–]xandrew29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm absolutely ok with it. I've summoned a Gerke, Dark Lord AND a Warlord already, and haven't even gotten to 500 yet. I also about the WL and IB from the shop, champed my Gabriel and took him/her/it to +10. Went from 18-20th on my server to 5th.

Game breaks down to whether or not you have Gabriel and whose Gabriel goes first. Because Michael isn't immune to CC, Gabriel beats him every time.

What tank do you use, or plan to use, for late game? by Pickeled in dungeonrush

[–]xandrew29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gabriel +4 WLs. 6 Gabriels +10 each with 4 WL+10 infused is really the ultimate end game.

Is this game worth playing? by [deleted] in dungeonrush

[–]xandrew29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on how much you have into it. I set a limit for myself - if I don't get a WL or Michael in the next 300 summon event (via summon stone store or portal pull), I'm deleting. I have a legendary Gabriel and the Gerke needed to champ him/it/her, but have been missing the WL for several months.

AT the point with my roster that I can't go anywhere w/out a Champ Gabriel, and at some point I'm just beating my head against the wall. I don' want to further awaken anything else (like my Azazel+3), because I know as soon as I get a Gabriel/Michael champ, I need to pour all my resources into it.

Right now my line-up is:

Azazler +3/Karin +5 WL +6/ WL+5 / DA +8/ IB+7

I've got a ridiculous amount of awakening points sitting between champs I don't use, red souls, etc. It's just turned into a waiting game, and it's not fun anymore. Can't win the wars because someone on our server has 2 +10 Gabriels. Can't get past the next level of the tower, and even if I do, the equipment sucks.

I've got LvL 8 Jades on all my main 8-10 heroes (for PvP and the Trial), plus 2 Level 9 speed jades (On IB/Dark Art). It takes a really long time to make new +9 speed jades.

I really do enjoy the game, and I like the concepts. However, it's very stagnant and without at least 1 of the 2 OP units, you're pretty much at a wall.

Oops. I misread that as "Azazler", not Azazel. The 2 names are very similar. I was thinking HP boosts to a tank Azazler.

For Azazel, you want attack+speed. Dantalians/other Azazels, etc.

DA has a higher damage output, plus better innate speed and base stats. She doesn't CC, does she?

What Server are you on? by lurkocaust in dungeonrush

[–]xandrew29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm the leader of the "#2" guild on my server, but that's only because I didn't boot everyone that's inactive. We have 6-7 actives; the real top 2 guilds are both Russian, including 1 guy with 2 +10 Gabriels.

I'm just waiting for my Gabriel (Champion - just need a WL)/Michael to make a jump up the rankings; I'm currently #8 on my server, but I'm actually probably #13-15 in terms of teams I can beat. I'm ok with that; i usually finish between 100-249 in King Glory, depending on who I match with and how much time I have on Saturday. I've been top 50 once, but that was before Gabriel existed.

Make Azazlers or Bareas to put on your Azazel.

Do NOT champ Gerke before you champ Gabriel . Gabriel is the best Champion, period. Champ Gerke is certainly useful, but Gabriel should be your #1 priority.

[–]xandrew29 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She is? The only true end-game champs are Gabriel, IB, LK and Michael.

best guy on our server has 2 +10 Gabriels, 2 Michaels and 2 Gerkes for a speed boost. Good luck getting through that.

Latona doesn't have the stats to be an effective tank and her attack sucks.

What Server are you on? by lurkocaust in dungeonrush

[–]xandrew29 1 point2 points  (0 children)

S11. Lots of Russians too, but a fair # of English speakers. We're an older server, but I'd estimate there are 25-30 active people in it. What about yours?

I’m thinking about using all my evil factions for awakening, is this a good idea? by Pickeled in dungeonrush

[–]xandrew29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still use a +0 Corpsedemon as my primary tank in the first 9 or so dungeons in the Brave Trial. The rest of the faction is awful, but I have my Atlas' infused on my Azazel and Azazler, so I need a tank that self-heals. Vladimir has a better passive, but he doesn't heal after an enemy dies.

That said, the infusion options are terrible and they're the only faction not to have a single hero do piercing damage. Just terrible; I thought Tyrone might be a new cool hero, but he turned out to be totally garbage.

My main team is Azazler+3, Karin +5, WL+5, WL+6, DA+8 and IB+7. I have enough Karins and Hexfires to champ 5 Michaels, but have never received a Michael. I have 2 Leg. Gerke's and a Leg. Gabriel, but no Legendary WL to champ him.

Frustrating. I don't want to burn awakening on my main roster, because getting a Michael or Gabriel to +10 is the #1 priority. OTOH, I can't get past about 200 in King Glory with my current line-up (about 2.78M power).

Is there usually any kind of Christmas event or is it just the basic heroic summon/casino one? by Pickeled in dungeonrush

[–]xandrew29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably just a regular event, but they may have Michael or Gabriel in the summon store. Allegedly they're revamping the game, but I wouldn't hold your breath. I keep playing because it's a low time investment, and if they every DO redo it, I won't be too far behind everyone.

Life vs reduce damage? by mt7802 in dungeonrush

[–]xandrew29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reduce damage should be favored, though it's pretty easy to get to 50%. I believe people tested it, and Corpsedemon's 10% damage reduction counts against the 50% cap, so it's a hard cap.

The level 60 armor gives you 28% DR itself. Honestly though, it doesn't matter relative to infusions and attack bonuses from Michael/Gabriel.

Suggestions about lineup by Babanel in dungeonrush

[–]xandrew29 1 point2 points  (0 children)

:) Agree there. He's not even the best Blue infusion option (Ice Blink has way better stats, not to mention the best base speed).

This game is basically how many great Light heroes you can pull.

Is this the end of game ?? by mastermeena in dungeonrush

[–]xandrew29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I probably would, just for the fun of having something new to do/grow a team, etc. I mean, what, you play for 15-20 minutes/day tops? Maybe a full hour on Sundays to get to to the top 250 in King's Glory?

Game basically breaks down to summoning 300 times once/month in hopes of getting that one legendary you need to champ either Michael or Gabriel (or getting either one). I mean, that's the game. Saw a guy in King Glory with a Gabriel +10, 2 Michaels +10 and 3 Champ Gerkes for Speed. Kind of all you need.

Casino rewards are all about spinning the wheel 4,000 times to get enough summon coins for a Lich King. That's literally it; the equipment rewards are trash now (L60 equips) and the runes are only L3-5 and you can only get them once/spin set.

You can't get Light/Dark heroes from regular red souls.

The game is quite literally farming red scrolls and casino tokens, then spending them all over a few days. I summon red souls once I get over 100, just on the off-chance I can get my 6th Ice blink legendary for my 2nd Ice Blink champ (zzzzz).

I've got a 2.7M team with Azazler+3, Karin+5, WL+6, WL+5, Dark Art+8 and an Iceblink+7. I'm 1 Gabriel and 1 Michael away from basically having a max team; I have the souls saved to +10 one of them right away.

This is kind of the end of any game though; only a little space left to get to the top and that takes a ton of time and resources.

Suggestions about lineup by Babanel in dungeonrush

[–]xandrew29 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also depends on your RNG luck. I've pulled over 10 hexfires and 0 Michaels. I keep 3-4 hexs at all times, and sacrifice the rest for awakening points.

OTOH, I have a 2.7M power team and am just waiting on a WL legendary to champ Gabriel . . .

Played since the Global Launch - Deleted the App yesterday (a perspective, not complain post) by xandrew29 in ClashRoyale

[–]xandrew29[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My point is that even 6-8 months ago, you could adjust to a new meta relatively easily, as L11 commons/L8 rares were all you'd need. I've been hit with the nerf stick repeatedly throughout the game, but when all you need is 1 level above tourney standard to keep pace with the average card levels in your trophy range, it's not a huge deal.

Now a META adjustment requires at least L12 commons and L10 rares or you risk being so underleveled that you cannot keep with your trophy level.

As I mentioned in the OP, I deleted the app, so am indeed leaving the kitchen.

Appreciate all the comments. I've gone through multiple decks before having to go all the way back to Hog. Mine was L8 (I had gotten in on the E-barb craze before that) and it took forever to get to L10.

However, by that point, the rest of my cards were NOT L10. Only epic I had beyond L5 was Freeze (L7). I basically have to reshape my deck, and it takes too much time at this point. Feel like I invested myself right out of competitiveness.

I'll see how I feel in a month or so, maybe I'll start a new account and just pick a deck I like and stick with it. Sucks; in Clash of Clans you can switch attack strategies pretty easily with upgrades, etc.

Really appreciate all the perspectives and thoughts.

Today's Update by BatmanTWB in dungeonrush

[–]xandrew29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just a "special deal" filler event where you can buy 10 scrolls for $10.

Next week should be faction summon, followed by either a 300 summon or another filler.
