| i am talking about when a canon shoots i take a hit when a range unit hits i get 0 damage. both are ranged shots, 1 from a unit 1 from canons. Strange! |
i think this is the battle where canons hit but ranged units miss

You misunderstood the careful aim ability. Careful aim protects every allied adjacent unit from damage from Thorough Shot ability, not all ranged damage (that would be broken lmao).
Ability is usualy used to protect cover units from magis own attack (Since magi itself has thorough shot), but aperently it also protects adjacent allies against enemy thorough shooters.
In your battle, it does protect allied unis against skeleton corsair shots, but that is a bug I think, because skeleton corsair shots do not use Thorough shot, but instead Heavy bolt (difirence is that heavy bolt does not hit adjacent units while thorough shot does, but careful aim protects from that).
I suppose heavy bolt is coded same as thorough shot, thats why careful aim protects against it. Cannons are regular shooters, so obviusly no protection against them. |
| What is the best dwarf build for this event? |
| its not worth to lose any of these battle, which will -1 mg |
| You don't lose an MG point for losing a battle. |
| the total number of battles is limited, if you are 69win 1lose, you only get 69mg, so the more lose the less mg you can get from this event |
its not worth to lose any of these battle, which will -1 mg
I would think that goes without saying. When is losing a battle ever worth it. |

I just thought I'd leave this out there. |
Just noticed
Loaded: 240 t. (influences difficulty)
That said "Easy" or "Very hard" on day one, but now it says "Influences difficulty" |
for The One Ring:
Loaded: 240 t. (influences difficulty)
As far as I noticed it only said that for ship lvl 1. When we upgrade we need to figure it out on our own... |
Warning: Do not upgrade to Ship 8.
I've had two kinda unavoidable losses, and I 100% regret upgrading. Better spend the 3000 silver on cannons. |

I won Ship 7 battles at 250 silver.
The only ones I won with Ship 8 were at 250 silver.
Sad.
Some final comments:
- Very fun event, but also very taxing. 84 battles takes a toll. Battles with 7 cannons go out of control, and take a lot of focus.
- Another mistake I made was to be cheap during the early days, avoiding the expensive rings/necklace. That lead to very avoidable losses, and any losses at the early stage really pull you down later.
- It took a while to figure out a good build, and experimation is expensive. There's gonna be some builds that work really well and some don't. I think TDE is one of those that has some good options, but the expensive fortune talents do hurt.
- You need to be clear weather you treat your cannons as bait or for damage. Once they start doing serious damage, switch to all fortune talents + archery + clover of fortune.
That's all I got. Hope we get more of such events in the future. |
for The One Ring:
