What would you say is a good level for making it to the 43rd tier of the epic boss so I can get the + version?

For this boss, or any other boss with this difficulty, I would say you need to be level 100 with at least 3 armors that are strong against the boss, one or two of which must be a 70+ armor. You'll need strong friends too.

I otherwisely think its a good armor, and I dont think of the mono elements as a disvantage or even weaker then dual armors, youre right about about guild bonuses, you would only get half of the MAX boost, but having two elements raises the chance also of having a weakeness againt, that is true both for arena as it is for epic bosses and having an weakness element on epic boss is just not an option eve if you have one strong element too, plus you also can never have both double element weakness ex. Roc x infernal lord, honestly im gonna try an get the plus of this one it isnt the best, its good as said, especially the plus, get if possible but its not a MUST

This has been discussed thoroughly before by Harvey and another forum poster. And as musketeer mentioned a dual armor can deal 100% extra damage compared to just 50% boost for mono. Consider the extra bonus the guild can give. That's something major to consider. I'm not saying that using a mono is bad, but its very situational. It doesn't have much use in the arena now cause of all the water armor floating around. Sure it would be useful for the epic boss but there are far more useful fire armor that can be used. But if let us say that it's a mono water then it would be more useful in the arena.

Depends on friends & the armour u r wearing. If u got 3 strong water elements armor , for this boss, with good friends, plus guild bonus, 70-80?

With this level of difficulty, anyone below 100 will have a super hard time man. You'd have to remember that friend stats are capped according to your level man. A level 100 sub knight with 455 hp using max shaman is getting 3 hit by the lvl 43 boss.

What would you say is a good level for making it to the 43rd tier of the epic boss so I can get the + version?

Depends on how much gems you want to spend. My daughter's account, she's level 89 with max shaman, hydro and nemesis, with some good 100+ friends with Jian +. She just beat level 37 this morning and will likely get 2 more rounds in today, since it will now require 5/2 fights (she barely beat the level 37 with just 5). Planning on 3 rounds tomorrow and one more Wed morning to reach level 43 and she still may need to buy extra energy for that final fight (but 10 gems for 5 gold chests and an eventual plus armor isn't bad).

I wonder if too many people got to level 100, were hitting boss level 60 and the 5 free black keys without having to spend much, if any gems/energy, and Gree racketed up the difficulty to force people to buy more gems/energy.

I have come upon the same conclusion my friend.

No shortcut.. Keep playing.

Sometimes when u r using special attack on boss, be smart, if u drop a lot of lousy materials @ the start, then stop using special attack till dark prince...

It's can be useful to farm other materials there 2.

I don't think how many times you use the special attack makes a difference or not. Sometimes you get lucky and get the jewels, sometimes not. I've had runs of 5 fights no jewels, then 10 fights with jewels, then back and forth. Its just something you gotta slog through.

I usually win with Swamp shaman+, Infernal+, and Jackalope+. If I get unlucky and miss a lot I can still end up losing though.

I was wondering what is the best level to farm materials (normal, mighty, etc.)? For example if I am trying to get snakeskins is normal the way to go or do the higher difficulties have a higher % of dropping snakeskins?

Normal is definitely the way to go. Fewer and weaker enemies usually make up for the slightly lower drop rates over the higher difficulties.

[Hildigam]

In my opinion you have to look at your HP loss. For instance when I farm snakeskins I will lose about 15 HP per run on normal and about 40 on EPIC. (lvl 80 with BIG 4 maxed). SO in 3 normal runs I will normally get 1 snake drop plus 2 random drops. So for PURE snake (say you dont want to waste time or need to do other things) you could go Valor or Epic and have a pretty good drop rate. But if you have plenty of time then run normal and reap benefits of the extra stone slabs and extra snake drops.
