Puzzle Combat Challenge Event Guides
These are being updated as they reappear. V30 seems to have fixed the discrepancy between different difficulty tiers.
Grand Heist
High Noon
Raiders of the Wasteland
It seems like those values changed at some point.
I was experimenting with charge speed weapons and found some interesting things:
TL:DW
EDIT 2 – Rana at 34 speed needs 13 tiles to charge!
Edit: Suraya at 43 speed with that maxed yellow 4* weapon is average actually, charges at 11
If someone like SulfreenReactor could investigate how fast their Marigold charges with that purple 5* Inksplosion, that would be awesome (IIRC they’re one of the few player with a v fast hero + 5* speed weapon)
Thanks those speed values look very handy.
You should be able to work out, if ( X) weapon, will increase your heros speed , with numbers above.
Follow up to charge speeds:
Reformatted the OP & added in:
I edited the main post to include the correct charge speeds. Turns out 57 is fast (suppossed to be 9 tiles) but there’s a weird bug where my Catalina isn’t actually charging at fast with the SWAT 3* weapon (some kind of rounding error). Game support is aware and they said they’ve found the issue – most likely V21.6 will include the fix (but no promises).
Also, one of my teammates tested and Marigold does charge at 6 tiles with 80 speed, so we can assume that’s the breakpoint

We’ve only seen green and blue for the Mercenary event, and I have a feeling it’s going to cycle over all 5 colors.
The next color will probably be red, purple or yellow.
I expect so too just figured I’d loop out for now based on the info available currently
@Guvnor this is empires and puzzles forum NOT puzzle combat… There should NOT be 1 much less 2…
If there was an alternate spot I would put it there
Various updates:
- Updated Dam Busters infographic
- Updated Grand Heist Graphic
- Added Rare Quest Rotation Graphic
Will update the Weapon Graphic & the Hero Booklet with V22.0.0 balance changes soon.
This might have changed again, just did a green chest and Area 3 Stage 6 was only 3 to 5 green kills. I checked out the first 12 areas and ran the ones that were all green enemies (albeit only once each) and got this:
Level | WE | Green Kills | Regular or Elite stage |
---|---|---|---|
1-4 | 3 | 3 | Regular |
3-6 | 3 | 4 | Regular |
4-3 | 3 | 11 | Elite |
8-4 | 3 | 11 | Elite |
8-5 | 3 | 10 | Regular |
8-7 | 3 | 9 | Regular |
11-1 | 4 | 9 | Regular |
11-4 | 4 | 11 | Elite |
11-5 | 4 | 10 | Regular |
11-7 | 4 | 11 | Elite |
11-9 | 4 | 11 | Regular |
So 4-3 and 8-4 were tied for best today (I know you’ll want more data for a full analysis but maybe this can help people in the meantime)
Yeah there’s a more recent version which now has Vet & Regular options.
I just haven’t gotten to updating it
Lol I shoulda known you were 2 steps ahead
