I'm really struggling to get my team to work though, I can still only last about 75-90 seconds on average against boss two, sometimes barely 60 seconds. putting TG in there makes things dramatically worse.
TG makes it worse? That's weird.

Would you mind posting your boss lineup with skill levels and talents, along with who you have on the bench?

How long before the other guilds figure out torch battles and we fall down low?

I think that the timing is perfect for us since we get online at the end of it anyway. As long as we have enough chances to guard our flags and steal some toward the end, we will always finish toward the top of the ranks. Even a middle of the pack finish gives decent rewards, and I can't see us falling much below that except in a worst case scenario.

It just seems really, really crucial to stay off that first page.

I could see them randomizing the list in a future update to spice things up a bit.

Current boss team is:
140 (capped) Druid 6/9, Revive 2/5
140 (capped) Immortep 5/9, Bezerk 1/5
135 Atlanticore 6/9, Revive 1/5
138 Champion 3/9, Heavy Blow 1/5
136 Succubus 3/9, Heavy Blow 2/5

Relevant sideline players:
140 (capped) Thunder God 5/9, Revitalize 2/5
131 Ninja 3/5, Deadly Strike 1/5)
80 Executioner 2/9, War God 1/5

I just can't get TG to work in there. replacing any single hero throws what stun lock I can do way off and the fight doesn't last half as long before I am out. It's just so weird.

If you had PD all your problems would be solved.

How far are you away from your 6th base? That will help immensely.

Here is something you could try. Tank with Druid, and replace AC with TG. Then, as soon as possible, get Exec to 4/9 (so he gets 2 sec stun), and put him in place of Succubus.

Drop Druid, then immediately cast invulnerability, then drop everybody else.

I'll try that tonight, but they only reason I get half as far as I do is because of AC tanking. take him out and I am where I was last week with just 45 second fights.

I'll try your suggestion tonight and see how it goes. I have enough shards I could probably get Exec to 4/9 immediately as well.

Have you tried tanking with Druid? Every extra hit he takes is one less attack he has to make before healing and buffing everyone. Plus he will revive after he dies and come back for more healing.

I can't say for sure it will work, because everything is so touchy in this game when it comes to timing, but I think it's worth a shot.

And if you put Exec in there, you might have to time your drops so his stun doesn't overlap with Champ's.

And if you get really desperate, you can always buy Dryad and get her skill up to 4/9 so she can stun for 2 secs, too. She has a slow attack rate, though, so not quite as effective as Exec.

The druid part makes sense now. I'll see how it goes. He is going to be the first hero I uncap if I can ever get 250 flames. I think subbing out Succ for Exec isn't quite going to be 100% since she does have Heavy blow 2/5, but I am up for trying. I'm desperate.

If it was a 100% guarantee, I would pay $100 for gems to get PD.

HB 2/5 is 10% chance of 1.5sec stun, so your Succubus is stunning for, on average, 1.5 seconds out of every 10 seconds. An Exec with 4/9 will stun for 2 seconds out of every 7 seconds. That's 28% stun coverage vs. 15% coverage for Succubus, plus the Exec stun is consistent while Succubus' HB stun is random and erratic.

Succubus does have debuff working for her, though, so she might be the difference between Druid being able to heal faster than the boss deals damage or not. Really hard to say, but I still think you have a better chance with Exec in there.

I did this a few weeks ago on a +25% day.

No dice. I rolled 2 druids, 2 snowzillas, a ninja and an atlanticore (only new legendary).

I still don't have PD, Moltanica, Grizz Reaper, Cupid, and that was enough gems to get me the Spirit Mage.

I did it when there were chests of Moltanica, it was like yipee 40 shards, wow 500 HB,

Such a waste but it got my TG the 120k upgrade and an Atlanticore, so if I ever do get the Pd I'm in great shape.

I have a smurf account with a PD, Druid and TG but they're in the low 90s and the might on the account is only 10k.

My main account the heroes are in the 120's and I'm over 20k in might and a few weeks from my 6th hero base...

I'm so tempted to drop it and focus on the PD account.

I'm not the guy. It's confusing as shite to me. I just wait for people to tell me what to do and mainly defend.
