Swan Fiends… did they beef up the damage they do? My 2LB team is being hammered by fiends

Elayanith · August 24, 2024, 3:03pm

Maybe you should take a healer with you!

Pr0spero · August 24, 2024, 3:07pm

I took Myoin Ni. The Swans are taking health faster than she can add it back on.

Scores with one day to go.

Used 2 teams in Rare.
Blue stack : cGunnar - cUlmer - William - cNordri - Joukahainen
Green stack : cBrienne - Zarel - William - Zarola x2.

Both Rare and Legendary are in top 750 which is the target at the end of Day 3. Should be safe without needing more replays.

Elayanith · August 25, 2024, 7:43am

Hmmm…I had Heimdall backed bei Ludwig and the only one geting low on health was Zarga.
Quite a suprise for me.
But I had some healing potions with me just in case.
Obviousely I am only completing and not competing.

Radar1 · August 25, 2024, 7:54am

I think I’m safe for top100 legendary. I wanted to do this for long time, boards were amazing on day 1 so I went for it.

Ranvir · August 25, 2024, 9:37am

Congrats on your top 100 @Radar1

Sharing my scores for top 1000 Legendary.
I used a mono red team on offense.
(Wilbur , Buster, Colen C2, Khagan toon, Azlar toon)

I did a 10 pull but no event heroes this time + 2 coins pulls : Tuck and Kailani…

Pr0spero · August 25, 2024, 10:54am

I solved it by taking 2 healers. Phenexa and Myoin Ni. Then 3 hitters. Completed all tiers now.

L33tVortex12596 · August 25, 2024, 10:59am

I just completed the event , but only to complete it. Not exactly engaging this time around. Congratulations on the high scores!

notyou87 · August 25, 2024, 11:04am

Yeah same here, the whole no chests thing stopped my motivation to do it.

Sidit · August 25, 2024, 12:13pm

7 pulls here - Sonia, 2x3* trainers + ■■■■■■ 3* heroes ^^

Dickens · August 25, 2024, 4:29pm

I’m in the same boat. Just ran all 3 difficulties as fast as possible. No reason to replay as it would just be wasting what few WE flasks I have for slightly better looking trash…err…loot.

BobTheSnark · August 25, 2024, 8:50pm

I find it remarkable how buggy this particular event was, from the silly visual bug for the recommended TP, to the gameplay bug that briefly made the event unplayable (most of the screen locking when an enemy Special went off, at least that got fixed), to the “oh no there’s no chest monsters dropping coins and it wouldn’t be fair [to us] to let players farm for coins for the rest of the event at all” which, damningly, SG didn’t even announce in game.

Can we just… not have the “it’s really coming someday and totally won’t break the whole game ;)” dragons update and make the base game work (and even update things like Monster Island or Untold Tales Deadly or an actual Season Six or any number of outstanding issues) instead?

Yeah, I actually regret that we didn’t have Return to Sanctuary for the fourth time in a row. I kinda think it might be SGG’s revolt against playerbase for complaining about having the same event x times in a row. But I can say for myself it definitely was a new experience… Not particularly enjoyable but definitely new…

Liam_K · August 25, 2024, 11:50pm

Looks like there’s quite a bit of score inflation in Legendary since the last time this event ran in March.

Have had to push twice due to the last minute surge.

Definitely safe now (8k above my previous best), but my guess is that the top 1k cutoff will be around 923k.

TribL · August 26, 2024, 7:59am

I got my usual loot on day one. Was quite relaxed event this time around.
Maybe should have worked on higher placing in epic and rare for the reminder of the event but i chose peace

notyou87 · August 26, 2024, 8:02am

Honestly, I did better than I realised I would:
For Epic I used Shar’kai, Kiril and Greg, they were a nice combination, and then the final 2 I would use would depend on what stage (sometimes 2x red, other times 2x green).

Liam_K · August 26, 2024, 9:11am

Hit the targeted tiers of 1k/5k/1k.

Quite a number of new Event meta heroes were released since the last time this event ran, and it’s reflected in higher Legendary scores.

	Rare		Epic		Legendary
Date	Score	Rank	Score	Rank	Score	Rank
Nov 23	588217	1263	690574	2875	918884	845
Jan 24	597887	632	731603	1120	922553	630
Mar 24	598869	489	699845	2368	920617	875
Aug 24	586142	763	684044	3917	928885	619

The lack of chests certainly didn’t hurt Legendary, but definitely impacted Rare scores. My 586k score wouldn’t have made it into top 1k otherwise.

Lower usage of mana items this time with the new Purple team. A bit more bombs used, but as I have more iron than ham, it’s a nice trade-off. William in Rare and Greg in Epic also helped a lot with their Garrison Guard minion. Slash attacks were enough to overcome bad boards.
