# 133
A great analysis.. sadly its written so hastily, barely readable. |
| grr, meant 123 not 133.. eyes still fail me. |
| Hi, could anyone rent Sword of Cold? PM, please |
| i will partialy aggree with #123 too. you cant buy brain.(well you can but only to eat it, not to think with it) |
One final thing on the pay to win thing. Part of what I think polarises this argument is in the definition and concept of it in the first part. I do not think of it as free to play or pay to win, rather as a continuum.
To set this out imagine a situation where donation gains no benefit whatsoever, absolutely nothing and call that zero.
Then imagine the counter end to this where you cannot ever win without donating and call that ten.
I would imagine within this scale none of us are truly at 0 or 10. What we are arguing about really is an internal view as to what number on the scale groups together into a "pay to win" situation.
On this imaginary scale where does this game lie, and at what point does it mean it can be considered pay to win.
There is no correct view on that (other than my own obviously ;P)
Personally I am around a 6-7. Donating makes things a lot easier, and means one does not have to scrimp and cut corners so much. I feel I can compete with most players well enough, and am not in a position where I am bullied by players who have donated lots. I have only donated recently, and have enough gold spread around in arts and elements, that could afford to buy the arts I gained from donations. The main thing I would miss out on is the enchanted art I am about to get done. Something which is a luxury item that I have not yet utilised (doesn;t exist yet) and therefore ha conferred me no advantage. Since I know this to be true, I cannot conclude that overall it is pay to win, only pay to not have to worry about gold costs so much and do everything on the cheap (I run a very tight ship financially with regard to arts I wear and have done for a very long time) I now do not have to so much. |
for Lord MilesTeg:
Enxhanted weapons is one thing money could be used as you i thing would use for TG and clan.fights mostly. QT is diffirent story. If those gift arts wouldnt be equal to.shop arts i would be totaly fine. I can somehow live with DU by skipping tournaments woth equal level. Exactly RoC and clower is what makes me salty about this game. It destroys lower level gameplay. |
for Lord MilesTeg:
Not only you but in general.like QT and group battles there you fight for pure xp. Yes use gift arts there and in PvE guilds but why in PvP(where you compete with other players). |
| Good luck days 4 |
For me on day 4 initial thoughts are tasty tier 5 troops, there are some nice ones in there.
Not fought any yet however.... |

something to make you think and not stay stuck on one build. To me that is good.
Happy with tier 5 tanks, just a shame AI is so stupid as to rush a hydra based army first turn when they have no shooters. |
Added some monks to stop the stupid AI from charging when it shouldn't. Hopefully it will use the better speed and ini to my advantage rather than charging into the jaws of slow lumbering armies.
Time will tell... |
| 400crystals. Im dissapointed. Lul |
| Its same for everyone.. then whats the problem lol? |

Agreed.
Also reduced CoT of all units, so there can be now multiple build setups. |

That's my first thought as well. Also ogres look interesting, initial price 10 cot for 10 pcs... |
Added some monks
succubi looks handsome for today, you get 11 for almost the same price as 4 monks, with about same hp but succubis dealing over 2x higher damage
Another interesting pick could be griffins.
Also hydra build might still be interesting, AI is pretty dumb against them... but they're boring and some other units look better tbh |
| I think unicorns are the best buy for today (including pristine and brilliant uni) |
| Unicors,griffins,commanders,succubis,skeletal dragon,dreadbanes,ogres,hell horses are cheap units today. |
