basicly i got so many unleveled heroes and decided to stop Pulling this month. i am thinking to spend my 3000 Gem to boost leveling progress.
so i need to decide 2 option here
use 3000 gem to pull 10x Trainer Heroes Pack , by normal chance in math i should get 18 *1 , 9 *2 and 5 *3 at least
reset WE 30x which is my current WR is 30 , so i will get 900 Flag , use in S2-1-9 for 90x and in math i should get around 270 Backpack at least
which one do you think give more benefit ?

@arios This same question came up in another thread, I think this might answer your question:
That or by purchasing World Energy refills for 100 gems and using the feeders you get as fodder, and the recruits you get as potential feeders.
That way is much cheaper, more efficient, and you’ll get exp and other goodies from farming.
Personally, I’d save the gems for Atlantis, seasonal, or event summons. That’s just me though
It turns out that this is much more efficient, if you’re willing to spend the time to farm.
0.2 Heroes/Flag (best available)
50/50 mix of 1* and 2*, for an average of 324/hero
Which gives 64.8 hxp/flag
Even at the base value of 15 WE, this yields: 9.72 hxp/gem, so it’s about 3x as efficient
It also has the knock-on effect of getting ascension material drops, which will be necessary before long (and increases the efficiency, because one can use those backpacks and swords to generate extra feeder heroes).
I’ll add that none of this is particularly cheap. Levelling a 4* hero costs 167,592 hxp.
At 9.72 hxp/gem, this is 17,242 gems needed. At a penny a gem, that’s $172 to level a 4* (assuming you have ascension mats).
5* heroes require 353,599 hxp. So that’s 36,379 gems, or $364.
Wow thanks for your calculations…so basically, spend the money on 4*/5* if you need them and don’t have TC20, otherwise build TC19 as fast as possible and continue farming, if unpatient spending WE flasks…
Your comments will make a huge difference to my leveling approach, thanks again!

It’s not even a contest, if you’re willing to farm.
900 flags should yield heroes worth 58,320 hxp on average, assuming you farm low provinces of S1 like 5-8. Plus all the swords, backpacks, etc.
The 10x trainer heros pack has an expected value (using your numbers) of 11,232 hxp, and no backpacks, swords, etc.

Thanks appreciate for your suggestion , i will split half to S1-8-7 and use ticket for S2-1-9-hard

Ticket is better used in 15.8 hard, if its only the recruits you want.

I’ve gotten good results from S2-15-8-hard. I use my loot tickets there regularly. It’s a lot of recruits (~33), plus good crafting ingredients, particularly Fire Stone.
EDIT: @TKristensen Sounds like we should be farming together.

Honestly you’re going to spend 3000 gems and not even be close to max a 4 star hero if ur farming
If u buy trainers they might get you into 2nd tier
It’s a worthwhile point that 58,320 xp wouldn’t come close to maxing a 4*:
Garanwyn:
900 flags should yield heroes worth 58,320 hxp on average, assuming you farm low provinces of S1 like 5-8. Plus all the swords, backpacks, etc.
And here are the xp requirements for a 4*:
4* 1.40 = 15,780
4* 2.50 = 15,780+ 25,536= 41,316
4* 3.60 = 41,316+ 42,555= 83,871
4* 4.70 = 83,871+ 83,721= 167,592
I don’t think there’s much argument for using 3000 gems for the leveling benefit — it’s more useful for the farming, and the hero xp gained from feeders from the farming is just a perk.
But it’s still way better than buying the trainer heroes, at least:
