[alizainal]

sweet.. I wish GREE give us more LTQs before the war

[Nacon10]

Pve , rewards are units and weapons/armor

[Colony Colonel]

Complete it all and get a dragon... that looks just like 'Night' 'Mzi'ri's Dragon' and 'Acheron'

good to see its all original ideas!

[TempusDA]

Here is the Spreadsheet for LTQ Darkness Rising

[Colony Colonel]

Thanks Tempus but i'm not going to duplicate efforts! feel free to copy the data from above though

[Johan -]

I see no strong new weapons in the above lists so far....

[LordIndy]

If the traitorous night lord helps fulfill the drow queen quest? I still need it and much easier to get here rather than the randomness of beat the boss.

LordIndy, I'm in the same position and had the same thought!
If I get there before you, I'll write back in this thread.

Me too! 23 bosses down and needed TNL since 13th

[Johan -]

Hehehehe! same issue here! I also need the night lord! The one who knows first., please post here :)

I'm almost there, need 2 levels to finish :D

[larrydavid]

HOLY CRAP, level 14 of this awards night lord and then awrads Mzr'is Dragon (if the night lord - rare unit is the last one you need)!

[Colony Colonel]

getting the traitorous units here counts for in the boss quest too?

[larrydavid]

getting the traitorous units here counts for in the boss quest too?
Yes. I just confirmed that. The night lord was the last unit I needed. I completed LTQ level 14 then got the Dragon.

[Johan -]

That would be great, it's the last unit I need also!!!! I almost finished the level, so can hopefully I confirm the same !!!:D:D:D

[Colony Colonel]

Congrats. shame I had the dragon anyway...

[larrydavid]

be patient it didnt happent right after I finished level 14, but after I made my first tap on level 15.

[Johan -]

I confirm the same, I received the Miz'ri's Dragon by opening the Queen boss tab.

Happy to finally finish a boss event!! I was still in a battle round 25 which cost me 10K for each hit! .....welll should I finish this round also to get the round 25 reward unit :) ???

yes, I plan to, just about to finish level 23 (currently on 23). you can't put a gold price on a decent indestructible unit. :)

[Battle Mage]

Cheers LarryDavid and Johan for confirming that! 😀

[Gambit12]

C'mon Gree designers! Can you do something for the prize for a change. You've been using this purple Dragon for the 3rd time now and I'm tired of having the same unit in every LTQ all the time...:mad:

[xyzqrst]

How do I get the quest to appear?

[pendentive]

regal bow = not for mage
FYI

[Colony Colonel]

regal bow = not for mage
FYI

Hellfire Staff is the mage weapon but it's certainly not worth the gems to get it.

only spend gems in this quest for stats

[WinkadInk]

Boss 19 down and all I need is traitorous night lord so thats awesome! I'm on 9/25 now so only 5 to go and miz'ri is mine ^_^

[-OP-]

Did you guys notice the LTQ pays HP instead of gold?

[Mickeytah]

Thanks Tempus but i'm not going to duplicate efforts! feel free to copy the data from above though

He wasn't asking you to fill out the spreadsheet. He was just sharing the link to the spreadsheet for those who like spreadsheets.

[ezinap]

HOLY CRAP, level 14 of this awards night lord and then awrads Mzr'is Dragon (if the night lord - rare unit is the last one you need)!
It is not fair. I need only the Traitorous Ghoul, and it's nowhere in this LTQ.
Unfair <whine mode off>
Congrats guys, with this unexpected award!

[War Eagle]

that's the only one I need too.. the ghoul.. too bad I can't get it from this LTQ...
Ok I'm done whining too...

[Nift the Lean]

Here is the Spreadsheet for LTQ Darkness Rising

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AgCUTOSskdQjdGlOWW4yTWJaQUxJSUt6clRTeXlEe UE#gid=58

Is there a spreadsheet somewhere that lists the XP you get "per hit" on the mob you are fighting, and not just the XP you get for finishing each entire level?

[larrydavid]

I have 3, I wish I could give you each one.

[xyzqrst]

Ummm so guys can anyone please answer how to make Darkness Rising appear.
The last LTQ required level 25 how about this one?

[Shinazueli]

It has always varied from level 15 to level 50 based on the map requirement. Open the spreadsheet linked in the first post. Look at the first map. Open the game, see what level that map unlocks at. That's the required level for the quest to start. Do note that you must be at the level to open the final map in order to finish the LTQ. Also note that if you are worried about the minimum level to unlock an LTQ, you're better off skipping it and working on the boss anyway.

$0.02

[Johan -]

yes, I plan to, just about to finish level 23 (currently on 23). you can't put a gold price on a decent indestructible unit. :)

I agree, the unit for finishing lv. 25 is for sure worth the gold, I finished the level 25 yesterday, funny thing was, by killing the queen, I also received the night lord!! So I received the night lord awarded from the LTQ and I got it from the Boss event itself!!

[Johan -]

Did someone see any special bonus units in the heroic mode?

[TempusDA]

[QUOTE=Colony Colonel;768546]Thanks Tempus but i'm not going to duplicate efforts! feel free to copy the data from above though[/QUOTE

Sorry was a bit tired when i created the template for new quest filled in what you had so far and made simple post for the spreadsheet before my head hit the table in deep sleep hehe. Didn't have the energy for a polite meet and greet.

Wasn't and don't expect anyone to do anything :) Was just merely providing the link to the spreadsheet for anyone that wanted access. Sorry if I wasn't a bit more polite in my posting as i was little too exhausted to do so at the time.

Some prefer a simple list as you are providing.
Some prefer a more comprehensive spreadsheet with more information.

It is good to provide people with a choice.

Thank you for starting the thread in the forums as well as a list of drops for the LTQ here.

Tempus


PS. Yes and it was confirmed that both:
14/25 Normal: Traitorous Night Lord
10/25 Heroic: Traitorous Watchman

Both also work for the Appease the Drow Queen Quest.


Side note:
Has anyone noticed if any of the units offer any bonus abilities haven't seen any for a while now.

[alizainal]

Did someone see any special bonus units in the heroic mode?

Nope, no special bonus. Just awesome indestrutible units.

[Shinazueli]

Yeah I was kinda hoping for another Shadow Knight... Lol. I wish they'd make that mistake again.

[Colony Colonel]

No problem Tempus, I was just saying that I personally don't want to duplicate effort!

List is fully complete now guys.

Enjoy!

(and join my guild ;) )

How do you guys reach 25 Kills may I please know what level are you guys at?
Darkness Rising was unlocked when I reached level 35 killing the Drow Queen Now I am level 59 with 640 energy but I need 2 level up just to kill 13/25 Torment Animator.
my damage is too low even though I already bought the final weapon from the Hero weapon shop.
how to kill this boss faster at this rate I am levelling too fast from level 28 to 59 in just 2 days is really fast as I don't even have level 5 buildings

To answer a part of your question, most of us have the weapons & armor received from the previous LTQ quests, My weapon for example has 102att/68def, My armor has 44att/126deff

I could do free kills up to level 16, maybe 19, but didn't want to wait 2 hours, after that it was gold hits only , lv.25 costed me 10K for each hit. ( needed 11 or 12 hits to kill it)

You are referring to the Darkness Rising quest here which is not the problem that you are experiencing with Drow Queen.

in this game you will level fast until around level 100 when it then slows slightly.

The boss comes in tiers. As you started fighting the boss at level 28 you are in the 25-49 tier. even though you are now level 59 you still remain in that tier.

Your weapons and armor count for very little when fighting the bosses. your alliance attack is all that matters. you increase this from buying units and mostly from participating in limited time quests (such as darkness rising)

you can also increase your attack through boost buildings, but this boost will not help you with bosses as you hit with your unboosted stats.

there are also techniques to killing the bosses efficiently. your health regenerates (without bonuses) at 1 per minute. you have 100. so if you attack the boss 3 times then wait 1 minute you can get another 2 attacks making 5 attacks in the first 2 minutes of battle.

after that you have to wait 25 minutes to regenerate enough health to battle again. but again wait 1 extra minute so that you have 26 health and can then perform additional attacks.

in total you can get 13 attacks in on a boss without having to resort to gem usage.

units available from guild crusades sometimes give a boost to health regeneration speed. Your guild can also purchase health regeneration (which is not cheap) this will all allow you to get more and more attacks into each battle.

take this advice and learn from it. I suggest that you play the game for fun. level up and care little for being the best. but then once you are bored of being weak for your level... start over by transferring your game to an empty device and use your knowledge of the game to your advantage.

players will still be stronger than you who have started again and use gems - but don't let this put you down.

[Cxxxmm]

Colonel - thanks for this info - i have one question please

are you saying that to do the best possible in the Appease the Drow Queen quest - you should be at max the number of alliances you have no matter your level, as long as you have the units and armour to cover it all?

thanks

Yes,

Anything that you can do to increase your unboosted alliance attack will benefit you. I believe it was proven that increasing your attack skill also helps you to hit higher.

If you are struggling with the current boss, do more of the LTQ and you should have a much easier time.

also don't do the normal quest chain, you will level up and push yourself into the more difficult tier.

Do I have to finish the heroic mode? for my heroic units that I earned for it to say heroic on it with a (H) cause mine don't says it.

[larrydavid]

Do I have to finish the heroic mode? for my heroic units that I earned for it to say heroic on it with a (H) cause mine don't says it.

Some units earned in the heroic mode have (H) and some are just different (usually stronger) units that don't say (H).

[Johan -]

I'm already a while in the heroic part, but must say that it cost a lot of energy to kill the monsters!!

[Gt4094rs]

Some units earned in the heroic mode have (H) and some are just different (usually stronger) units that don't say (H).

So it will say (H) on stronger units when you earn them?

[jeffrodriguez]

Wait I'm not talking about Drow Queen I killed here 100
Times already my problem is the LTQ monsters I hit them each only for 60 points of damage only and their HP or Life is too many. I am on level 16/25 the animated bear I have 600 energy he cost 64 energy hits me for 13 energy.
It's hard to kill him

The 4 things that make what you are saying easier;

1) As you increase in level, so does your Energy bar. So now you have 600 Energy when it is full, when you up 1 level it increase, I think to 610 or 620 (I've never actually paid attention to what the increase is each time)

2) Hero Strength - when you spend your Skill Points, maybe put some more into Hero Strength, each time you increase by 1 Hero Strength point it increases how much you hit monsters for a little bit

3) A better Weapon. You can see your current weapon on your profile page, you can either buy a better weapon from the store, or if you have a stronger one right now the only way to get a better one is in the LTQ's, sometimes you get a weapon for completing a stage instead of a Unit

4) This one doesn't so anywhere near as much as 2) and 3), but better armour...same way as in 3) for this

[Shinazueli]

Well yes. You don't do much damage and you don't have much energy. That's the trade off for boss fights vs LTQ. You can't excel at both for free, or even cheap. :). You'll have to pick one and the other will suffer.

[plavine]

That is because this one is too easy. Gree only offers reallly good hero weapons and armor on the LTQ that you have to spend gems on to finish. So there will be plenty of players with the 60 attack weapon.
It is what it is.

[The_Legend_Shall_Live_On]

This is one LTQ that I kind of like, and maybe they could go back and forth between these types:

I like this one because you do not get TONS of experience fighting the mobs on the maps. So far the highest experience I have per hit is roughly 15. WAYYYY better than 110 per hit at 10 hits to kill. Even at 15 exp per hit for ten hits is ok in my book.

And this is a good resource for honor. Managed to get two more of the 15k honor beasts just because I could.

So if some LTQ are good for milking gold and others like this one, are good for milking honor, I like that. Please keep it at lower experience though. I'm working through heroic right now, and have not yet leveled up. Makes it worthwhile to finish. I had to bail on the last one because 5 levels higher, didn't want to go another 2 or 3 to finish it up.

[Bigjoe415]

Does anyone know why I haven't gotten the splash screen for this yet? And any tips o. How to get it if possible?
Thanks

What level are you?

[Severoth]

That corpse reviver sure takes a beating. Lost count of how many energy bars I burned through killing that guy.

[Colony Colonel]

Apparently this event activates at level 35 for anyone unsure.

[Gt4094rs]

Some units earned in the heroic mode have (H) and some are just different (usually stronger) units that don't say (H).

How come higher units on heroic mode for example a spiked raider I already owned, with an attack of 1006 and defense of 672 while on the heroic mode is the same exact attack and defense on the same exact unit, ain't the heroic mode units suppose to have higher skills compare to the normal mode units? What's the point of heroic mode if the attack and defense is the exact same thing? Sorry still kinda noob at this game been playing only for a month and a half.

[-OP-]

Look at the spreadsheet and you can quickly and easily see the unit payout difference. The link can be found at the beginning of this post.

[Gt4094rs]

I already did its the same exact payout as the normal mode

[-OP-]

Sp one unit got doubled up and because of that you are saying heroic isn't worth it? Total earn in regular mode is about 15k attack vice 26.8k. Keep going and you will see the real difference in the higher levels of heroic. That is why people are so kind to build these sheets for us. They not only blaze the trail but give us all the intel we need to determine if we want to peruse or not; unit HP, rewards, energy costs....

[collage]

You need new glasses. Don't try to be funny


I already did its the same exact payout as the normal mode

[Gt4094rs]

I know what you meant but I'm referring to a single unit cause I seen some of my allies have the same exact unit but the heroic unit is twice the skill level as the normal one same exact unit btw.

[Gt4094rs]

You need new glasses. Don't try to be funny

I'm not comparing the two quest I know the heroic has more payout I meant some of the stronger heroic units which I have in heroic and normal mode i own both units and are exactly the same the skill levels I thought the heroic unit suppose to be twice as strong as the normal unit same exact unit btw I think your trying to be funny when you start to play tons gems you'll understand what I mean.
