:dizzy: Special Questions for Trials of Piety

  • Trials of Piety is relatively heavy on healer options — did you bring any healers? And were you able to find sufficient firepower amongst your Cleric and Monk choices?

  • Monk Wilbur really shines for Quests and Trials, both for making survival easier, and for debuffing enemy defense. Do you have Wilbur, and if so, did you bring him along?

:grey_question: Standard Questions for All Trials

  • Did your team change notably since last time?

  • Have Costumes caused changes to your team?

  • Did changes to your team make the Trials any easier or harder?

  • What items did you use, if any?

  • What are you doing with your shiny new Emblems?

  • If you beat Stage 3, who’s eating the 3* Trainer Hero?

Battle was easier than I remember. I brought mana positions to fire Hansel up since I had no cleanser, but didn’t end up needing any items. After he fired at Boril I got a lucky cascade that filled Rigard, Drake, Wu and Wilbur, as well as killed Boril and setup another yellow diamond with lots to fire off again with. Drake fired once more with Wilbur active and knocked em down to size. Missed screenshots up to this point.
Trainer goes to Justice who was happy enough to jump to within 5 more points of her 3-70 wall before she starts crying little pebbles as she waits for more darts.
Nice to have another reset emblem too, I feel like I’ve collected a lot more lately than since they released emblems. Well received.

Lots of choice available for this one:
Leo +2
Joon 3/60
Joon 3/70
Boril
Agwe
Wilbur +20
Rigard +20
Chef Boldtusk +18
Li Xiu

Used Leo/Joon/Rigard/Boril/Agwe in the first two levels. I realized that Boril wouldn’t help so much in the third one, since two bosses have no damaging special, so switched to Leo/Joon/Joon/Chef/Wilbur. Used a couple of bombs to speed things along, along with a couple of manas and heals.

The trainer will be taken by Joon (leaving me at three yellows waiting on darts soon, and nothing more to level than a second Bane for tournaments). Leo is my war tank, so will definitely get more emblems. Need another worthy cleric though. And I have way too many (12) resets and no real desire to use them!

Last time:

This time. Had to turn stinky Rigard back to cleric, bleh! Also brought in Gafar! Welcome him in!

This is the first time I literally used no items. Gafar kept Tuck low, and the Wilbur/Wu Kong cascade squad did the rest.

Vivica didn’t have enough to go up, but like Li Xiu went up one node in time for the tournament and to turn Rigard back to Dapper Noble.

Team this time:

No changes to the people, just Grazul and Ariel are now maxed. Drake also has +1 node.
Screenshot_20191215-183151_Empires

Options:

  • Kunchen - 4/80
  • Gafar - 4/70
  • Wilbur - 4/70 +15
  • Jabberwock - 3/70
  • Drake Fong #2 - 3/70
  • Wu Kong - 4/70
  • Li Xiu - 4/70

Result:

Victory again. Lost Hansel along the way but managed without him. Friar tuck is an annoyance with his healing and mana boost… But we got over that…

Was a bit drawn out tho as I didn’t have much colour stacking involved…

Rewards:

  • Reset emblem - YES
  • Trainer - fed to Pixie
  • Cleric Emblems - into the pile for Ariel when I get food and iron spare again
  • Monk Emblems - 53/125 for Drake Fong’s next node.

Muddled through the trial, and made a few changes to the line up I took last time.

I took out Wu and added Grazul who has been a levelling project. Gafar was also now maxed, so subbed him in and put Elkanen on the bench, but kept little brother Mnesseus because of his dispell. Was double thinking that decision and accidentally started the battle :woman_facepalming:.

I took in arrows, because I have an abundance, attack banners because Wu was resting, and small health and antedotes.

Was easier than I remember and Borill’s reposte wasn’t a issue thanks to Grazul’s incremental health top ups. And, Gafar kept Friar Tuck in check.

Emblems and trainer hero safe in my inventory for now.

My team last time

Just as I was selecting the trial team, observed a member was missing from the previous team…had to get thẹ pic above from Nov trial…the missing member was Rigard…must be related to costume :thinking:.

Anyway, that led to a slight change in my team, as the missing slot was filled by The Hatter 3/70, this led to a significant improvement in my team’s performance this time.
Team this time.


Battle field…

Board was decent all through, Hatter’s steal was fun to watch, all needed was just wait for Boss Boril and Friar Tuck to fire, ensure Wilbur’s special is active, then unleash the Hatter’s…
As a result, the battle ended in easier victory and first time I will be completing this trial without the use of items.


First time the team stayed intact till the end too.
Eventually, Monk and Cleric emblems would go to Joon and Kún respectively, Vivic is at final ascension tier, so she is poised for the trainer.

I hate this trial. Had to pay 75 gems, that Boril didn’t want to die^^

What happened? Last time it worked better, I see, maybe I’ll go with Li Xiu again.

My team this time…the screenshot is gone?!

Rebuilt…

Expensive victory…


Emblems stocked for Rigard 2 and Drake, trainer goes to Drake.

Harpoons

I used harpoons

([Warning!, Tip, Danger!] The Old Moderator and the Sea (apologies to Ernest Hemingway and @Kerridoc ) or Wilbur and harpoons in Trials of Piety)

monk Boldtusk

I forgot I could use Boldtusk for this trial.

With antidotes, monk Boldtusk 4*+c18 would be better than Rigard 4*+b18 against Friar Tuck ( 2x red heroes). But worse against front bosses blue Boril and yellow Joon since 2x red heroes would be 2x weak / 2x neutral while Wilbur and Rigard are weak / 2x neutral / strong.

My team this time:

  • Rigard +20
  • Li Xiu +19
  • Boril +10
  • Vivica 3^70
  • Leonidas 2^60

Compared to last time, Li Xiu is up 5 talents, Boril is up 4, and Vivica hit the mat wall at 3^70. None of this made much of a difference; this trial is still terrible.

Entered the boss wave with all specials charged, not that it matters, since the only one I fire immediately is Boril. Started with a bomb and dragon, then went to work on Joon, keeping Tuck’s mana down with Leo and Li. For the second straight time, Viv riposted Joon, but died in the process. After one dragon burned through, I started another, but then I let Tuck fire by accident, so it cost me more items. Used 5 axes, 5 bombs, and 2 dragons total. Really hate this trial.

Not enough emblems for Li Xiu or Boril to gain a talent. Trainer hero goes to Chao. I’m targeting Buddy and MN in early January, but Santa would really help on this trial. Hope to do several Atlantis pulls in January with gems and Play credit, so maybe Wilbur will show also. Finally, will save EHTs after Christmas for Sand Empire, because I’ll bet Gafar makes this one way easier.
