No. You are mixing things up.Quote:

After each stage you get returned to the overworld; no fleeing involved.
Each stage is split into 4-7 rounds.
At any point in a round when you're actually fighting (not when the game is waiting for you to press the button to start the round I think), you can use the X in the upper right corner to flee, which gets you to the overworld, remembers at what stage and round you were and starts healing your knights, since they are in the overworld.
Thank you Spongie.Quote:

Obviously Fluttershy.
I just got a Fire Fusion Boost Armor, but I've only got the + versions of Atlantean Avenger and Crius right now. Should I hold off on using it until I get an LF or HH+ or just go ahead and use it. It might be a bit before I get the mats to make the + version of those other two, as I haven't even unlocked the stages for the feathers or whatever HH uses.
My initial thoughts were that if I use it to help me boost up one of the two that I have it will help me get to the newer areas faster, but then I wondered if losing 20% of the points would be worth it.
spare the boost for a more important armor.Quote:

Ok, thanks!
Hahaha! Fluttershy! Great question! Got another question i posted several pages back. I wont post it again if it does not get answered...will asume it is not known.
As the guild levels up, at what levels are 1) more members allowed to join, 2) more leadership positions available.
Thanks.
I didn't count, but the increases occur every 2-3 levels I think.Quote:

Anything I can try fusing that could give me something better than Big Four (even if a fairly low chance)? Need something to alleviate the boredom of grinding and upgrading the same old armour :)
No.Quote:

Welcome to the game.
level 70 armor == grinding 3 1/2 times as long... :pQuote:

Of course you will need some good friends to help you with the more powerful stages!Quote:

So,I just finished the dark prince epic stage for the first time (pretty stoked), but no notification? No message from the dark lord himself? Nothing? That was quite a disappointment,was hoping for a reward of some sort,or a notification or achievement for finishing the final stage of the game,or at the least was expecting another smartass message from the dark lord. I guess I was too far ahead of my quests :P ohwell,time to start farming like crazy
That's disappointing! I'm on 2nd stage of KoD, but taking my time as am trying to do the quest path properly. Gotta redo Stage 1 again, which is a little annoying but no biggie.Quote:

Well getting the big4 was really nice, but most say once I found out how much of a grind it is to upgrade lvl 70 armors, I got really discouraged and only play when im on the bus to and from work :P. I'm still getting my levels, but can't believe it's necessary to grind the same places over and over again to get mats for upgradring. It's painfully slow and boring. Would be nice if they made fusion stones drop more often, so you can spend money on making 50EP armors for enhancing, instead of having to do the incredibly boring farming for materials. I have 3 mill now and constantly growing because i can't farm enough to spend it :P
It is a bit of an anticlimax.Quote:

I have four achievements remaining, silver, gold and black medals which I will never get, and the last is for crafting the Kaledoscopic Starmetal Raiment which I am not sure is even still in the game, unless it's the Black Kaleidoscopic+ armor many of us are waiting for, in which case I'll never craft one because I'll already have one.
I am not that far along in the quests unfortunately,so I cannot help you sorry. I've sort of stopped doing quests hoping guilds will come out on android soon so then I can finish off quests for the guild questsQuote:

"collect" quests start counting from the moment you view the quest intro, so any Evil Jewels you get before that don't count towards the quest. (not that it really matters, since you need 2x 22 Evil Jewels for Dark Prince+ and KoD Epic gives you way more Phoenix Feathers than Evil Jewels... -_-; :( )
AFAIK the gold chest can drop Kal material (Kal is a white version of BKal with worse stats. I have someone on my friend list wearing it though...) .Quote:

You'll burn through your gold 3-4 times as fast as using Snakeskin. Someone did a 1-70 enhancement using just commons and burned through about 9 million gold.Quote:

I would like to see fuse stones as a more common drop, but seeing as Gree nerfed the drop on them, that's probably not gonna happen.
Sadly the grinding for materials (and almost always snakeskin) everyday is the way the game goes. I have to spend on average at least 15 minutes every two hours grinding for snakeskin to keep my three armorsmiths busy and just one armor levelling slowly. It does make the game incredibly tedious, with the Arena, Epic Boss and upcoming Guild Wars (on iOS) the only moments that lighten the tedium.Quote:

Thank you! That is very helpful.Quote:

It just means I can take my time with enhancing completing this quest.
If you've been Snakeskin farming and not using the earth and water shards from Skeletons Tomb at all, you quickly build up a whole bunch of them, so you should have plenty for your armorsmiths to burn through without needing extra farming.Quote:

Either you grind a lot or you open lots of DPCs for enhancement armors. There's no other ways to play this game.
Mm I have around 100 fusion stones.. I am getting like 2-3 per day by farming snakeskin.. so I saved them up for my when my lvl 70 armors hit lvl 50+
Thank you for this post Jello! Vaguely recall seeing it previously but now having finished HC powerleveling to 100, time to start farming Jewels... which mandates actually trying KoD for once :)Quote:

To get a Snakeskin to level 5 (to make it 24 EP on any non earth/water) would cost 4,000 gold (300*8 basics + 600 & 1000 for 2 enhancements).
Mmm, have you gotten the "Climactic Clash" quests? I believe there's one for each level of KoD--these are in addition to the one where you have to get evil jewels / DP armor. From your question I suspect you've gotten the first one, mentioning it just in case so you don't have to go back and do each one a second time.Quote:

It is VERY slowly giving me lower ranked opponents as I continue to get beat up by people who are currently ranked about where I was a day or two ago. Is it wiser to just not play the arena for the first few days to get easier opponents later on?
Does anyone have a picture of Clayplate Mantle at level 1-11?
So I've just maxed swamp+ and am working to maxing my infernal+.
I'm wondering which lvl 70 I should go for next to maximise my chances of getting an epic boss+.
I've got roc+, WW, DP+. Obviously DP+ has the highest stats but I already have the same element combination in LF+.
Thoughts?
I'm going to suggest that you work on DP+ or Wicked Wraith next. If you're really concerned about having to put so much time into DP+ because of its elements, WW is probably a better option. I am personally avoiding Roc+ because I'm not convinced it's worth the time.Quote:

Basic math off the armor data sheet suggests I can raise two level 70 armors to 45 for the price of one to 70. I'm stuck in the situation where I have more armors than I have time, and trying to raise a level 70 from zero to hero, well, I found this week isn't likely without a bunch of pooled resources which I don't have (yet).
So instead, I'm going to raise a couple: SG in wings, Inf+, DP+ (once I get the stupid place on farm, first test run went incredibly poorly), the Guardian's which is now at 45, and any random boss armors that fufill a niche I can't cover (hopefully plus but...) and beyond that, just pool resources.
Comments off the recent Slimelord thread suggest that with proper friend management even Big 4 level armor is sufficient to hit 43, I don't quite have the friends list they do but mine isn't shoddy either. Interestingly enough, most legendaries at level 50, are right in line with Big 4.
So, for Epic Boss maximization, if I draw a boss where I have a good suit waiting in the 45-50 range, spend the resources to level it quickly, and then start pooling immediately after.
I think this will give me the highest chance of making a match between Gree's selection, and my own armor pool as keeping a bunch of legendaries at 1 and trying to take the shot, just isn't going to be effective and I have far too many gaps to cover right now.
Yes, in theory in 2-3 months with proper armor selection and resource management I should be able to take on any boss to 43; however, the goal is to get to that point as soon as possible, ideally (if I get lucky) starting next or maybe two weeks from now.
I'd rather get one level 70 armor than 2 level 45 armors. A level 70 armor and good friends(assuming you're matching up decently against the boss) will be able to get to level 43 of the boss. A level 45 armor is barely better than a Big 4 armor and the only benefit is some more elemental combinations. Getting a solid core of friends that are active is the most important thing for cracking the epic boss barrier.Quote:

What I'm hoping to accomplish is spreading my base such that I can respond more effectively to whatever combination Gree gives; this breaks down as I'm not certain I can raise to 70 and have another useful armor to push to 45 in a week, plus pool the requisite resources for next emergency raise, but I do think this shortcuts the time period where I'm simply waiting for Gree to release a boss I can hit hard by giving me more options to be able to accomplish that.
I'm expecting I'm going to have to effectively skip some weeks, but my goal is to keep those weeks as few as possible.
Ah, okay. That's a good idea. It gets easier after you get a legendary or two under your belt.Quote:

Once I get up around 150 my opponents are in the top 50 and almost all seem to have either Moonplate or Dark Kaleidescope, or both, which makes them near unbeatable.
The higher you are the fewer opponent options the system has to choose from, so you do start seeing the same opponents again and again. If you keep a record of who you can beat, and especially who you can't, you can try for longer double-downs. I usually give up on the DDs half-way through the week because I just can't get beatable opponents without a lot of fuss.
So is the big 4 guaranteed to get you to lvl 43 epic boss and beat it?
