What do you guys think would perform better here? Glacius+ or Druid regular?

[King Of The Infernal]

Both useless armor

[Musketeer]

Glacius+ worked fine to get me to level 15 on the first evening.

Not sure what LotI is on about. Glacius is the best Legendary yet for this Boss, and we haven't all spent $50k to obtain Epic armors.

[Adisty]

If the Druid is maxed, I would use that. Even with the dual-element weakness multiplier with Glacius, it has an only very slightly higher damage advantage, but it has ~300 less defense.

[ChromeCobra]

I'm using the Wormshroud myself, Glacius on 2nd and Witch's Robes on 3rd when I need them. Finishing off 20 in a few minutes, just used a 2nd person on 15 and 19.

[The Swede]

Beastmaster works very well against water/air

[doober]

If the Druid is maxed, I would use that. Even with the dual-element weakness multiplier with Glacius, it has an only very slightly higher damage advantage, but it has ~300 less defense.

That was kinda my thought too. Thanks for confirming it. Cheers.

Hi all,

Is the data shown on the EB screen of attack and defense of the new nian armor is the final stat of the plus version?

Yes AviraM. That is correct.

Wrong place.

[Dianish]

Did you also notice Nian is quite harder?

Has the stats of EB been increased or is it like the last collection event?

[Erfel OP]

My water/air armors


All plus and maxed

Glacius - Abominable - Swamp demon - horseman - combustion - krampus

Should i max this nian's too? It's clearly pretty stronger than abominable, but still unsure if it's worth it...


Thanks for help :)

As Nian is not part of a collection event, or at least no collection event has been announced, one has to suspect the former.

I'm fully aware of that no event has been announced. Just wondering why Nian has a toughess equal to the last collection event we had. Glacius caused alot of issues to alot of players. Nian is causing the same issue.

[stl snipes]

[Kangaroeland]

Just did 35 with 2 guys I dont see the issue. Only experience fewer energy drops

[Dianish]

Guess you guys are using Sandstorm?

Its not just me. So i was wondering. Im using 2xBM and 1xGlacius+

[Vejr]

Stats are definitely higher, best shot is of course Sandstorm, but everyone is that lucky, so next in line would be Beastmaster+, Druidic+; Glacius is doing great job tho, if not +on BM and Druid it is just as good.
@stl snipes ... I'll add you, hope my BM+ will help (high com V -Brute Squad)

edit-srry brother I'm on iOs, game says you not

Druidic is stronger than beastmaster, so:

Sand > Druidic > Beast > Glacius

Bye :)

Thanks for help :)

these newer bosses definitely have more stats than the 2013 models, im replacing many of my 2013 models with the new 2014 models. =]

[Dianish]

Stats are definitely higher

Indeed. I can barely use 5 knights and come out alive. Im at 53th kill right now. Using 2xBM and 1xGlacius+ - Then using friends with BMs/Glacius is early kills of each tier and then friends with druid/sandstorm on the later kills of each tier.

At this point the boss has stats nearly equal to 60th kill. Is this because of the stat creep we have had lately?

Normally i should have hit 60+ by now.

[Sarah 101]

I'm using :BM + ,aegis of dragon + ,Druid ,BM + and sand +
So I have no problem with new stronger stats...

edit-srry brother I'm on iOs, game says you not

Im having to use Aegis of Dragon as my best earth, and Im on 60 now, trying 4 and 4, I never know if its better to do 5 plus 3 or 4 and 4, wish me luck. Going in for the 2nd time and had lots of misses on first go round. Ill gem if I dont kill him off on this 2nd try.

PS Sarah awesome you have Sandstorm, its sooooo good for this ep. Last two eb I got thru 60 on first try but not this one. Im kinda hurting...I so need your sandstorm.

[loophole]

Just curious. Does Gree service actually read anything on this forum or just post bosses and updates?

[Sarah 101]

They read everything , but they do the best for all ,not just for one person :)
