In 84 hours I will be the proud new owner of a shiny new level 10 Manor!!!!!
I didn't shell out any real money for gold, nor did I sell any buildings. Just some good old fashioned raiding!
I know we have a few old-timers here on the forum (pre-stat inflation) who fondly remember those BD10 runs. Well, I think Manor 10 should be the new BD10, folks! After all, until we get some new LE buildings, Manor 10 is the biggest single gold purchase you can make.
I know a lot of people have said, with the new vault size, there's no point in going overvault anymore. Sure, you don't HAVE to… but come on guys… live a little and have some fun! Yeah, I got attacked along the way, but that just meant I had to kick up my raiding a bit to keep up pace.
So here it is… a challenge to all you forum peeps who think strategy is dead… that the forum is just a place where people come to whine. I used to love coming on here to see everyone's progress on their BD10 runs… and to see how different folks were getting there (
There be dragons, anyone?). We would trade advice… help each other along the way. Those days of the forum I dearly miss… and I encourage you all to help bring them back.
So here are a few pieces of advice that I learned along the way:
- LTQs are your friend! They are the best time to go overvault because a lot of players will be distracted. I definitely attracted more hits
between events.
- LTQs can also be a great source for gold… that way you don't have to really solely on raiding/attacking.
- Be nice to your attackers, and they just might return the favor. Sure, most will decline your friend invites when they see you sitting on that much gold, but it's still worth a shot (worked for me a couple of times).
So who's going to join me?? And to those who already have one (or two)… share your stories of how you got them!
