Ok, here is the updated graphic. @Quinn3 I have also added the scarabs/canopic jars info you pointed out earlier. There are also a few ibis and jackal combinations with the saraps.
Desert acolytes also appear in province 15
Desert acolyteās avatar reminds me of youtubersā thumbnail
Thx, I have updated the OP with the new chart.
Anybody already found a perfect level to farm the acolytes?
Need some 150 more for the avatar and am done with 17-2 as the birds are doneā¦
Havenāt done much yet, and none of the ones in Province 15, but 17-2 is my best average so farā¦
I came here to ask the same question. I just finished the Saraps and i have 160 Acolytes left. 17-2 is fine thereās not a better stage for just acolytes. thatāll take me another day and a half to two days at 5-7 acolytes per run.
btw, i guess this means there will be new avatars for every new set of provinces, 12 sets total? at least theyāve been easy to finish so far.
15-8 or 17-2 for the acolyts?
So I just finished up the Acolytes, and just have a few runs left to wrap up the scarab amulet mission (trying to get to 135), so i checked 15-8 and if you are just doing acolytes it may be slightly better. There are 4 waves, each with either 3/4 monsters, and 2 guaranteed acolytes at the end.
i honestly already canāt remember if 17-2 always had 3 monsters on the first three waves. if so, i would expect there to be a slightly higher chance (but not much) that you could get more in 15-8 since it has a chance for 4 monsters per wave. if 17-2 is always three per the first three waves, you should average 6.5 per run (9 monsters x 50% chance of acolyte = 4.5 + 2 guaranteed at the end). iād have to really sit down and do the math to figure out what it would be in 15-8 with a 50% chance itās 3 or 4 monsters per wave, and then 50% chance each of those is an acolyte, but it comes out to slightly higher than 6.5 per run, obviously. but not by much.
so you may just want to pick whichever one is easier for you to farm. once youāre done with the saraps it shouldnāt take more than 25 runs or so.
If you use the Shen amulet on 13-7 you donāt get the ailments and it should be ok to autoplay. This is where Iām at to finish these off and then do the VI missions
I ground out acolytes on 17-2 using autoplay with shen and was scepter. I found I finished acolytes with 15 amulet still reqd so going to do 5 more, leave the next 10 for 19N when it opens then farm elsewhere
Auto farmed 17-2N with the shen and scarab amulet and my strong auto farm team: Freya, Kiril, Athena, Onatel, Delilah
Same, I autofarmed 17-2 N with Shen/Scarab

I finished the Scarab amulet mission yesterday, and am really happy - now I can ditch the Scarab for the Was Scepter again
i left 10 of the scarab amulet to do because itāll take 10 stages of the new provinces to get the new amulet and iām already done with the avatars, so iām sitting at 135. but yeah, i donāt find the scarab amulet to be useful at all, so iāll be glad to be done with it.
I find both the Shen and Was amulets quite useful, so itāll be interesting to see which one pairs up the best with the new amulet. I used Shen with the scarab, it just generally made things easier for the farming stages. Do we know what the new one will be? is it in the beta beat somewhere?
@Sam-I-Am yup they have their own thread
omg, the next one is even worse than the scarab! but i donāt think it will matter much as long as the enemies donāt get crazy hard.
the one after doesnāt seem so bad, except, well, youāll be forced into rainbow for what, 175 stages? that will beā¦ interesting, for sure. team selection will start to really matter.
Shen/Was probably the best combo, although whatās the last one? i guess weāll find out soon enough!
Thx for the link.
I forgot to update the OP there with the V51 balance updates, which is now fixed
my pleasure @PlayForFun , you already do so much so glad it helped a bit!
@Sam-I-Am I agree, I am not so hot about an amulet that only has benefits when heroes dieā¦ as for the rainbow one, I guess I can live with it especially for autoplay purposesā¦ though not so hot about the riposte, especially if it does not stack with better riposte skills like Azmiaās or Ferantās!
Thanks for the link ā¦ I didnāt realize we already knew the next two amulets. I guess Iāll be keeping Shen as my main constant with the second slot for whatever mission Iām on. The revive one seems a little useless, but I like the rainbow/atk up/riposte which will probably be my 2nd mainstay since I run a rainbow farm team, once I get it. That works well since we unlock the 3rd slot before the last amulet. I guess before I do the last amulet mission, Iād use the Tjet amulet for the 3rd slot in the interim as extra mana is always good.
