Many many pulls hoping for Dark Lord or Toxicandra but sadly nope 3 Crystalis dupes!! Sigh
Did 25 pulls. Got this mofo:
Well, wanted Asterius, but I take it. Isrod is certainly better than Isn’trod (ba-dum-tss).
How is he now after buff?
Last Villains event I scored 652.792 and ended at rank 3390 in Epic. You probably can find the scores posted when you search/go through the topic, as a reference. Since more people have LB Heroes I suspect scores will be higher and even more competitive. I was aiming for top500 myself but I really have no use for another tonic at this point. So top5k will be my aim.
Here are my scores for Rare and Epic, first run. Only came across 1 chest so far.
Never been able to catch a cColen so far but do have a LB Cillian that I use instead (and Scarlett). First run at Epic wasnt that bad, switched to my blue team. Still, gonna give my “new” red team so more practice over the following days. Cant spare much items as the Festival event top500 ranking really drained my resources.
Bunny, as many 5* you are pulling lately , I guess you are far now from being suicidal?
How are you being so lucky bunny, share some of your luck with me! I mean it took me a couple hundred pulls to get 1 “new” legendary villain and not the one I needed (I wanted Crystalis, DL or Toxicandra haha)
You don’t wanna know how many pulls it took for me to pull first magic tower legendary hero!
Got it. Thank you. I am also thinking of saving some resources for Ruby. Good luck!
@Cheds ….
Who did you take to legendary…
I have started off with mono yellow and done fine so far to lvl.6 but run out of flags …
Cheers
Completed Epic all the way through with this team:
And completed Rare all the way through with this team
My legendary was below. Only brought in Lancelot later on so will replay some levels if needed but the attack up made a big difference

651K and 652K have been good enough for top 5K each of the past two times so I think I’m on the path.
So since I already had the 3* and 4* from Slayers & Circus I decided to use my coins on this event for once (nice buffs on some Heroes recently). Really need some dark Heroes! The result is below, finished Legendary and got another Sanngrior. Already got 2 maxxed Kiril so will probably feed away the 2nd Sanngrior.
First time this event aired last year February, I completed Epic with a rainbow team of S1 4* on the first try. These were my only 4* heroes ascended at that time. It wasn’t easy, yet it was doable. My team at that time was Melendor - Sonya (8-10?) - Cyprian (18) - Boldtusk cb (18) - cChao (18). This time around, several of my alts don’t have anything better to field than a 4* rainbow team. However probably due to limit break the last stage of Epic is even easier than I remember it to be. Wu Kong can also help things happen for a rainbow team. Just a word of advice, the purple on that rainbow team should be a passive one - a counterattack hero or a healer.
Edit:
Actually the bomb attacks do significant damage. Of course if you expect to carpetbomb the bosses you will be disappointed. However if you pick the right team and prepare your field correctly, then you can most definitely finish the bosses with 5x axe attack and 5x bomb attack.
As I said. I finished all the stages and all the difficulties from the first attempt and with all the team alive. Being in top 5k everywhere.
My problem is the spike in difficulty. We should also think about the new players and not only at those ones with deep roaster (old players or heavy spenders).
Bought today’s offer, got lucky is 9 total pulls got Chrystallis, which is great, only bad thing rng must of known blue is overwhelmed right now, will probably be a long time before can work on her happy gaming everyone
Judging from the experiences with my alt accounts, this event can be completed with a team of even 3/4 *, as long as there is some synergy. I tried a blue mono of Kiril (18)-cSonya (16) -cGunnar (LB, 14) - cKaril (LB, 18) and cValen (LB, 20) on Legendary last stage and it worked, although indeed on the 4th try but it worked. Sadly the video’s sound got messed up, however if any of you shows any itnterest in it, I will post the link here with no sound.
As for the new players, I remember that at the time Villains was first released I was less than 3 months playing this game and still managed to beat Epic, however at the same time I wasn’t able to complete even Rare on my first challenge event (Knights of Avalon) in December 2020 because I was playing for less than a month and thus didn’t have almost any heroes or items to choose from. It takes time to be able to complete the challenge events and other tough quests, be it Trials, Masquerade or Tavern of Legends. New players will just have to settle for the challenge tiers they can complete. If it’s Rare only, it’s still something small which will help them grow.
Just wanted to say Kudos to SG for a fun event. The Clash of Knights was way too difficult and not much fun. This one seems to be challenging, without too much frustration. I’m still focusing on building 4* teams and have been able to get through legendary. (Going to try and do final level shortly, so wish me luck!)
My team that has really surprised me with doing so well in Legendary:
- Gullinbursti 75+20 w/ Lv 4 crit troop
- Franz 4/30 w/ Lv 5 mana troop
- Cillian 75+20 w/ Lv 4 mana troop
- c-Grimm 70+19 w/ Lv 4 mana troop
- Mist LB70+10 w/ Lv 1 crit troop
Franz holds up really well. I think he’ll be able to hang for final level. Mist might be MVP. Level 9 bosses never even fired. There were gems flying all over the place, but their meters were barely moving. (I think they also may have nerfed the mana speed on this challenge, which is a welcome surprise to me)
Not really much chance for position based rewards, but I feel satisfied with the completion rewards as worth the effort. I think SG could step it up a little bit with the rewards for lower position tiers. Also nice to see STATIC rewards vs RNG. it would really hurt to get 1st place and have crappy rewards pulls.
have you noticed that
what the Villains ‘say’ after you beat them is actually a big part of how/what the content of this forum is constantly rambling
about?
Oh man it’s like they are taunting us. Any other legendary from this portal would get maxed but I have blues up the Ying Yang and one measly scope and I pulled crystals as well.
Little warning for those who are aiming for top 1k rare. Scores seem to be much higher this time. Here are my scores at approximately the same time.
Previous LoV:
I eventually made the top 1k with a score of 584k.
Current LoV:
Roughly the same ranking, but 14k more points. I replayed a stage to get some breathing room. I’m at 598k and I think I’m safe.
So don’t use your previous scores as reference, the cutting point will likely be higher. I’m not sure why that is, since limit breakers were already there last time. The competion is fiercer, for reasons I can’t explain.
