I found a video of some poor bastard who got Pumpkin Dukes on Hero Trial lvl 5 (if the deep link doesn't work, skip to 12:25)

It plays out as hilariously as you might imagine.

I was looking for one earlier and couldn't find one, that's about how I imagined it would go, holy shite!

Where is hero trials.

Also, I feel like I'm getting the shaft with legendary heroes.

I did get a Cupid but other than that, 3ninjas, 3 succubus, 3 Druids, 3 paladins and a champ... Are TG, reaper and imortep extra rare or something?

Might take a while to get to iOS.

I think all legendaries are supposed to be equally rare. Anyway, you should save shards and get TG asap. He is crucial in a lot of situations.

I'm at 6800 shards

I was saving for the new hero

But I just rolled Cupid the other day

Now I don't know if I should keep saving or spend on Cupid

Immortep

I know he's not really new but he's the newest on ios

Immortep

Oh, I saved shards and bought him a while back. He is a beast for clearing out troops in HBM.

Same with TG, and did you see the video I posted of PD?

From what I've read on reddit, even the top level guys are having trouble making it halfway through hero trials.

That's probably a good thing. To keep the game alive they need to keep pushing the bar in terms of challenges. It can't be all trying to get hard to get heroes, hbm, raiding and occasional bosses.

I agree.

BUT

They really really really really need to add saved base designs. It seems to be impossible to use the same setup for raid defense, HBM, and now hero trials. And currently you would have to spend more time redesigning your base to keep up with all the timers than actually playing the game.

Totally agree with this. My resources are completely exposed for HBM. It took an hour the last time I tried to rearrange my base.

So I rearranged my buildings again (but kept the 40:1 wall arrangement), and I think I am finally over the HBM F hump. I seem to be beating it pretty consistently.



Also, I was doing my second round of quests today, which I thought would be pretty easy. But I had to get 3 flames on 5 raids, and you can't choose your opponents, you have to do the random same-might opponent button. I have always had trouble raiding 100% at my same might, so I tried some tips I read recently and I was able to do it with minimal losses. So, in case anyone else has the same problem, here is a pretty good tactic:

Use only thopters, no other troops
Buy magic: Frenzy, Guardian Angel, maybe Restoration
Choose a base with at least 75k gold or so to cover your magic costs, and also make sure you are able to drop your troops right by an entrance. (A lot of HBM bases make this easy)
Click your thopters, then press and hold near the base entrance until all your troops and heroes drop.
Immediately drop Frenzy over everybody
When your first thopter is close to dying, drop Guardian Angel


If all goes well, the enemy towers and heroes target your thopters, and since they take a while to die your heroes can sneak in unscathed. Frenzy should get your heroes proccing in no time, and the GA will keep them healthy. You can probably take out all heroes and defenses before the Frenzy wears off, and it's smooth sailing after that.


If all of this is obvious to everyone, for not telling me how to do this months ago.
