Thatā€™s a good place to accept to be in, feeling the same, we the experienced ones :crazy_face: know our place and what to do. If I would go further then I would need diapers for my doggy for some days and a ton of cocā€¦ I mean coffee :joy: 666, youā€™re serious? :smile:

My result :slightly_smiling_face:




I have some questions. How many flask do you use in this event ? Do you get at least 1 chests in every rare and epic stage to get in top 100 ?

Iā€™m currently taking a step back from the game to concentrate on RL but I got caught up in this as @Orion_Fervor knows, itā€™s got some of my favs in so I logged on to hopefully get Costume Rumple, Costume Gazelle and Green Knight :wink:

In the end I got c Guin, a dupe cSnowwhite and a Dupe Morgan le Fey (whose first landing in my lap was the last CF1) Weird.

I also managed to sneak into the top 1000 for Rare for the first time since Slayers which was nice. My intitial run put me at 300 (on the Thursday) and I thought Iā€™d do my best to stay there. Spent too much time and too many items.

Rare - 931 / 625,043
Epic - 4396 / 714,122
Legendary - 1176 / 985,357

@Orion_Fervor - when I come back more regularly, before I go to my home alliance, Iā€™d like to pop in and say hi before I go ā€˜homeā€™, if thereā€™s space. Wonā€™t be for a few weeks though.

Ah! The allure of CF1 is too strong it seems! Well, ai can confirm that since my original list I did a number more pulls and didnā€™t get any new 5* heroes beyond those detailed previously. If nothing else, iā€™m never mad at having better food for the current projects.

No Green Knight, and no C Guin, which means that itā€™s going to be Winifred and Meresankhā€™s time to shine!

Speaking of going home however, @Slartibartfast , I was actually going to ask if you would have room in your home for me and my good friend that I have made in E&P (though, iā€™m not sure heā€™s on the forums). He is also taking a small break due to real life circumstances - but has asked if he could join me when heā€™s back, so maybeā€¦ this is the universeā€™s way of saying we could migrate together if there is space? My current home has been a wonderful place for me to grow, but now I feel I want to move to the next stage (without being hugely competitiveā€¦.)

Likewise, hopefully thereā€™s space? :wink:

Final results



I did not track my items usage but I know I used 6 flasks.

Good questions.

All in I used about 20 flasks across all 3 difficulty settings.

However there are some caveats hereā€¦Iā€™ve been doing this a very long time now and I can see a great board or a board with a lot of potential very quickly.

Chests arenā€™t necessary, I certainly donā€™t have one for every level and in fact some of my biggest ever scores had no chest.

A chest with no combo bonus is significantly worse than a normal board with a mammoth combo. Getting the chest and the combo is a Top 10 requirement, for Top 1k rare or Top 500 Epic doesnā€™t need that.

If you can make 1 single move and get a 10 combo and a fully charged team and a wiped wave 1 from your only move and then nuke wave 2 before you blast the bosses you will have a monster score already.

And they are super rare too but generally a 5+ combo from the same process will end with a Top 1k rare keeper usually Iā€™d say.

I use total 3 flask to get top 1000/5000/1000 for rare/epic/legendary. I think I get only 1-2 board like that in this event. Yeah, I usually get 5 combo in one move and then use all battle item to finish the stage regardless if my team are fully charge or not. It is enough to get in top 1000 but seem to not for top 100 that is why I ask :smile:.

From my experience, top 1000 rare need about 2-3 stage with chest and about 3-4 combo at start while other stage are 4-5 combo at start with no chest. I never get in top 500 epic.

I donā€™t know why but I feel like that I get a chest more frequently than 10+ combo at start :sweat_smile:.

I honestly donā€™t know if the hotm are ending I read it somewhere but Iā€™m in beta and like I said Iā€™ve lost interest to the point I havenā€™t even checked. And on the 13th of 14 pulls I got lotl w costume and I still donā€™t have interest. I donā€™t even know who heroes are anymore.

Top 100 in rare is worth exactly zero mind other than showing off :joy: Top 10 is the next bracket and frankly Iā€™m not capable of that with the resources I have to hand.

Had a bunch of coins and enough gems for a ten pull ā€“ eighteen pulls in total resulted in eighteen dupe 3*. Oh well, helped me finish off Merlin and C. Wu Kong (for lack of a better yellow project).

Finished Legendary and found I had ten more coins. Thought what the heck, and pulled C. Guardian Gazelle. :+1: Works for me.

If you enjoy it then itā€™s fine - in the end the main point of the game is to have fun. But I donā€™t like playing Challenge Event just for score. Especially Pirate special stages make my blood boil (whose idea was that? You finally charge heroes and then you canā€™t fire because little smear of mana is lost). So I just play for rewards. I on the other hand enjoy using items during Monster Island and I know of many players that would consider that also as a waste of items, but I like that much more than challenge events. Iā€™m just saying that if youā€™re doing it purely for prize then itā€™s not rentable.

Anyway, these are my final rankings. That last push on Rare was not even needed, but it netted me 10th coin for pull of ā€¦ Guardian Lemur.

Sorry you didnā€™t get Green Knight OR cGuin but Anne is :heart_eyes: - also, Iā€™m still secretly slightly gutted about pulling Sobek as I love Wini but heā€™s the sensible Wizard choice - and now I have to reemblem Guin, too!

Anyway, wrong thread.

Oh thatā€™s marvellous news. Weā€™d love to have you! Have you got Line or Discord? Will take this out of the thread.

It seems we will be blessed with the continuation of the HotM
Thanks for the information @PlayForFun

I must say, sobek and El Nad were both well worth the wizard emblems, and so, winifred for me is the natural next successor after Milena!

Anne is really getting the special power levelling treatment whilst stoll focusing the main team - I encourage you to follow the thread ā€œwhat heroes are you working on (and why?)ā€

Both actually! I can still monitor those who find me, so, my discord (preferred) is Orion Fervor#5623, or my line is just: orionfervor

But lets discuss options!
