followed by today's daily quest expecting a 'novice' like myself to acquire, by fighting only, 2 regions using my iron age troops against high middle age troops.again virtually impossible if, not actually impossible!!Īdditionally, the current winter event task requires polishing/motivating 40 other player's buildings, it would be around 14 hours before that would be feasible due to time of last visits, along with wanting a donation of nearly 25% of my supplies. Secondly, this occurred after having to complete, just to obtain 10 stars, a 24 hour task of completing 10 times 24 hour production runs (strange how the game matches the number of production units a player has with task) this also coincided with a task an hour later in the Daily Quest requiring completion of 10 times 8 hour production runs (short of demolishing several other buildings and building 10 more production units) virtually impossible and nullified any chance of completing daily quest. A waste of time, energy and resources built up. Surely an oversight by the developers as by anyone's calculations the 4th reveal ought to have been 8 times the reward. Firstly, after unveiling a 'double payout' next reveal also is a 'double payout' as is the third reveal so 3 'double payouts' on the trot, however the 4th reveal is 5 Forge Points and ONLY 5 Forge Points are awarded. So basically, outside of the 'RNG blessed', most people will be forced to spend diamonds if one wants a fully maxed out Lv12 building.īetween likely ending up at least 1-2 upgrades short, even *if* one completes the entire quest line + daily log-ins, AND, all the gakking forced C-map progress, this event a steaming pile of poo-smothered coal.Ĭlick to expand.Hiya, Overall appears impressive however, 2 key issues have occurred. Thus, without diamonds, and without winning any additional stars through things like the Shuffle tile, etc., you'll have to average exactly 2 candles per match to win a full Lv12 building! To get all 8 additional upgrades, requires lighting up 15 trees x20 candles = 300 total candles. You'll get 3 upgrade kits from finishing the entire quest line, thus leaving 8 needing to be acquired through lighting up trees for the grand prizes. Now, assuming Inno is generous and gives us say, 30 stars to start with, that's 1500 stars = 150 matches.Įach tree needs 20 candles to lit, with each match lighting between 1-3 each.

So there's a grand total of 1475 stars to be won from the quest line + daily log-ins.
