⚖️ [Master Discussion] - Tower of Styx Event - FAQ, Discussion & Summons!

I used a 3* in the last 5 impossible levels as well :joy: Man he took some nursing at the start…

Didn’t think I’d hold Top 500 tbh. Not entirely sure how that happened as I didn’t think I had that good a score :man_shrugging:

Nice. Thanks for sharing. You must have good luck with your board. For me, there were so many curses that were simply “unmatchable” so I was taking a lot of big hits.

What 3* did you use?

Buster. No def down on the Styx means any opportunity for Damage increase has to be taken

Edit - For clarity I have like over 80 5* ascended. But only Buster & Franz that increase damage taken. So as always we have to go with what we have.

Nice. And how did you keep a 3* alive?

Overhealer mainly. He could take a hit so it was a case of just managing it and watching. Once I got hit I’d mana up And then maybe got lucky I guess. But I’d gone big for defence buffs and damage resistance and took the minions so after a few turns he was unkillable really

I definitely didn’t have too much luck, I almost lost everyone multiple times on the first wave (and I DID lose my cPerseus which is when I used some minor mana to activate Kiril). In previous turns, I even had to use a Tornado on wave 1 which was always frustrating, but I would do it depending on who the curse was on and how much health they had left (I am pretty sure I remember one curse being on Miki and I definitely used the tornado to try match that, and luckily it did).

I just spent my time not caring about how long it was taking or scoring, so I was actively looking to match those curses on the first wave. In most cases, you can get lucky by matching tiles and it will bring more in to help get rid of the curse. Although, many times I would have 3 or 4 curses on the board and all going to go off and I had to decide who to sacrifice - who’s health I should let get taken. Which of course in some cases is a no-brainer, but it;'s never a scenario you want, you need or want all of the heroes ideally.

I was very lucky to have Miki though, he was just brilliant and the MVP for me in those last floors

Thanks for sharing. I never thought that I could bring a 3* to the final floors of the tower. I thought they would be wiped out so easily. Next time I am going to try a new strategy.

You do have to really nurse said 3* and be prepared to use items early if needed. But when you get him to the bosses he massively helps

Hi all, I saw in the guides that the class restrictions change every Styx event - I haven’t personally noticed but is this correct? Thanks!!

Yes, just like blessings, their rotation is picked at random for each occurrence of the tower events.

Thanks again oracle, sorry that your talent and efforts got reduced to answering this mere mortal’s question on class restrictions…when your talent could be better spent elsewhere LOL

last Styx tower was really in February? wow… and none yet in July.

So I expect we’ll see Styx again in August I hope. my ETTs are waiting to be used for Styx troops…

This is crazy. So long between events!

Don’t worry guys… I’ve got 10 days at sea coming up in August. That’s when they’ll run it.

Yes because its not a fair rotaion but money driven by releasing new heroes tied to certain tower.
So yeah i can say depends whats in v60 or 61 might still not be styx. Same goes for Alliance quests they take tower window every 3rd month?
Keep hoarding the tokens ppl and hope…

I haven’t gotten behind at what point Styx troops are better than magic. Could you elaborate?

I’m not the expert in that, main reason I want Styx is because I already have one Magic troop per color, but only Yellow styx for now. (I also have sufficient mana troops for my needs).

this thread might help though:

there’s a table here which gives the troop stats side by side. some players have also given their opinions on when it is best to use Magic vs. Styx

Styx troops should have improved tile damage over magic. The developers want tile damage to matter more. Styx troops are the future.
