Just got labeled a cheater as well. That’s the last straw. I’ve sent a ticket and will see how and how fast they react. For now, I’m done with this game…

@pointless

Also, against multiple enemies, Bomb rage is far more effective IMO. Case in point, against the current event’s Kraken, one Bomb rage hit at the start gets rid of all the tentacles in one blow. After that, it’s hits with my strongest attackers (SeaDog, Treasure Hunters, Samurai and Witch). With Finisher, I have it down in 3 turns, sometimes 4 if Finisher doesn’t proc.

[pixelyzed]

@pointless

In the Arena, sure, elsewhere it’s too easy to loose it as it has by far the least health compared to other birds at equivalent mastery. I use it against poisonous enemies for sure.

[pixelyzed]

For me, it sometimes depends if Arena or everywhere else

Mathilda : Bard overall. Witch in Arena hands down.
Both are equal on attack. Witch’s healing power for the banner in Arena is incredible.

Red: Samurai for the multiple hits. I also used Paladin exclusively for the longest time. No other Red class come even close to these two.

Chuck: Wizard hands down although, until it gets Elite, I use mostly TBird or Mage.

Blues: These days, Treasure Hunters.
Blues has the most number of great classes. I’m always switching between Tricksters, Rogues and Treasure Hunters. Eagerly awaiting Elite Spies.

Bomb: Pirate was my fave forever. Now I use mostly Cannonee.
Again, multiple hits. SeaDog has highest attack with 100% health but it looses its teeth with one hit. Way too unreliable.

[pixelyzed]

I used to be Paladin all the way, always. Now I use Samurai 75% of the time. Multiple hits with DragonBreath’s collateral damage is pretty sweet everywhere.

[pixelyzed]

@dallasreds

For me these days, the main team is this:

Elite Cannoneer with Finisher (in Arena) or Gladiator’s Punch elsewhere (multiple hits and 45% chance of collateral damage)

Elite Witch in Arena and Elite Bard elsewhere both with Nature’s Blessing.

For the third team member, I switch between

Blues (Elite Treasure Hunters or Elite Rogues) with Robot or

Red (Elite Samurai mostly or Elite Paladin) with Dragon Breath

I will use others but the above are my current mainstay. I use Chuck (any class) the least these days but when we get Elite Wizard that would change ;) Now when I use Chuck it’s mostly in the Arena with TBird and either Reset or Mana depending on the team I’m facing.

Btw, I just used Ancient Relic to fuse 3 sub L82 non-enchanted items and got a L82 Dragonscale. Had the shards and snouts to enchant it to 10 and my Red now has 11794 health :)

[pixelyzed]

Yeah, get this one for free and buy something more worthwhile. Illusionist is the most useless class of all… ;)

[pixelyzed]

I had a lot of stuff going on this week so I didn’t play at all yesterday and part of today. I was in 9th place this afternoon but when the event ended, I got a 3 stars screen and got 5000 master for all, 5K for Mathilda and 5K for Bomb. I had about 7 or 8 classes move up.

Also got Elite Beserk as my class upgrade.

[pixelyzed]

I got Mythic Resurrection early and then Mythic Shroud a few weeks ago. Nothing since for me either. I did my free rolls right before applying the update yesterday evening so I’ll see if I’m lucky to get one of the new ones in the coming days :) Mythinc Chrono would be awesome! I sure felt the effects of the old version of it often before but now I see mostly Ressurection and Shroud on enemy banners.

[pixelyzed]

@pointless I used Bones all the time too in the Arena when we were at L60M60 and I had L62 versions. Scrapped them when I started getting L72 set items (I think Reset was my first complete L72 set). Now I also have complete L72 Mana and Lightning sets. Never got L72 Bones set items since the cap update to L70M70. So I do with what I have ;)

I’ll use Mana mostly against venomous teams. Otherwise, when I play Chuck in the Arena it’s usually with Reset although I like Mana’s 8% attack bonus.

@bubbley The Blues “Will” set is Avenging Will. I have it and am enchanting it slowly (L72E4/L72E5 right now). I mostly use Ballista because Beep! (my fave) is half L72 and half L62. That’s a 748+ health points difference compared with Ballista.

I also meet a lot more venomous teams lately, often with all 3 of Druid, Rogues and Rainbird so Mana does come in handy.

As for Lasting Song, I’d love to get the second half again but I actually think Nature’s Blessing is just as effective when the enemy team has Matilda and/or another a healer. It helped me many times in and out of the Arena.

[pixelyzed]

@pointless I’m leveling up Canoneer so I don’t use it much yet in the Arena other than when I have a multiple classes usage objective. I mostly use Pirate as it’s my only M70 Bomb class so far. With Finisher it can deadly and also very effective with Gladiator if my other birds are strong on attack. If I bring Blues it’s often Tricksters as it’s also M70 and more and more often Rogues who’s now M68 and can be very effective with its venomous attacks, even if it goes down, the banner keeps getting damage. I rarely use Treasure Hunters in the Arena although I use it often outside of it. It has more raw attack power than Pirate but almost 2K less health points.

The thing is, if I have Red and Bomb in the Arena, my third bird will not be the Blues but Matilda and it’s usually Witch. I need Witch’s healing with the enemies I’m facing. I often face teams with 5500K power and above (nearing 5900K at times). Even with a fully enchanted Valliant set and Mything Resurrection emblem, if I loose a coin toss or I face a team with a Reset equipped Chuck, I rarely fight with 3 birds standing so I need to make each intervention count. And Blues is often the enemy’s first target as it will have lower health than Matilda, Bomb or Red. So if I loose the coin toss, it’s almost certain my first attack will be without my Blues as it will be down regardless of its class.

I spend less and less time in the Arena grinding and I’ve always had more of a brute force style so my choices reflect that. Often times it’s not only the class properties that will drive a choice (other than my few prefered ones) but pure strenght and health weight in a lot for me.

I made it to Platinum this week but I’m with a lot of grinders now and I do not have the will to grind. Might not make Dimaond again this season. My work and other activities take up too much time now ;) So I go with what I know while all my classes level up.

[pixelyzed]

@pointless Not aversion per say, just less compelling to me than other Blues classes. My goto Blues classes are Rogues, Tricksters and Treasure Hunters (all Elite). I don’t use Spies much only because it’s not Elite yet but I would.

Bu it’s also one of the last classes to level up for me because I use it so little so it always becomes a prime target in the arena if I use it, so I go with stronger classes.

[pixelyzed]

@bubbley Why Princess in the Arena? Druid and especially Witch are way more effective there IMO. If I need negative effects removal I bring Tricksters along or Chuck with Mana to prevent some negative effects. At least Trickers has some serious attack power and also removes helpful effects on enemy targets.

[pixelyzed]

Yeah, Princess is another I never use either unless I have an objective. But it’s less useless than Priestess ;)

[pixelyzed]

Tricksters is one of my most used classes along with Rogues. It was my first class to Mastery 70 :) Rogues was my first favorite followed by Tricksters. I’m leveling up Treasure Hunters and waiting on Spies to get Elite. Elite Treasure Hunters is fantastic.

Matilda’s Druid is also great as is Cleric which I’m rediscovering lately (both mine are Elite). I have 3 Matilda classes at M70 (Druid, Bard and Witch). Witch is often overlooked but is the best Matilda class for the Arena because of it’s incredible healing for the banner and attack punch.

My favorite Chuck class is Wizard but since it’s not Elite yet I mostly use Mage or Thunderbird. Personally I find Rain Bird mostly useless as it doesn’t have the attack punch of most of the others and its healing is not strong enough.

Red’s Stone Guard is awesome as is Bomb’s Canonner. I’ve used Paladin most in the past but I’m leveling up Elite Samurai now. I love the classes with multiple hits like Samurai (3x), Stone Guard (2x), Canonneer (3x). But they also have the power. Priestess and Marksmen have double hits but are weaker and do not have good enough secondary abilities. If I bring Matilda in a battle, I need a good healer and Priestess is not. Most other Blues classes are more compelling than Marksmen. So I never use it.

[pixelyzed]

@bubbley I loved Lasting Song too when I had it. That’s what I used all the time before Rovio upped the level/mastery cap to 70. But my set was Level 62 so I scrapped it for shards to enchant the Level 72 Nature’s Blessing set I got later. I actually got half of Lasting Song L72 recently and waiting on the other half.

Nature’s Blessing is great as well even if it doesn’t have the 8% attack boost. I go for sets with the attack boost too usually but we do with what the GPM gives us right? ;) I prefer any L72 set over older L62 ones, no matter what they are.

I compensate with Gladiator’s Punch or Finisher who both have the boost. The Blues’ Ballista as well Chuck’s Mana also have it although, if I use Chuck in the Arena, I usually go in with Reset unless I’m facing a venomous team. Had to scrap my L62 Last Will for shards as well ;)

[pixelyzed]

@bubbley I get that objective often too. Healing birds is less of a concern for me in the Arena. My healing mainstay there is Witch (L70 M70) with a fully enchanted L72 Nature’s Blessing and I heal the banner with it, never birds. First healing shot is 9863 healing points and second if Matilda doesn’t go down in between is 11836 so that’s significant. And she’s no slouch on attack either yielding 3263 damage.

The enemies I face are all strong with full sets too so mine are all fully enchanted as well and I find that, unless I have a non-healing objective, I always bring Witch in the Arena and swicth the other two depending what I’m facing.

[pixelyzed]

I also love Finisher. It can be deadly in the Arena and amazing for objectives where you can’t kill pigs. But recently, I switched to mostly Gladiator’s Punch because it gives extra attack to all birds against a weakened banner. So it is in effect even when Bomb is down. I 3 star more arena battles with Gladiator’s Punch than Finisher. I also still love Boarding. I would use Gladiator’s Punch and Finisher over Scissors any time… Boarding doesn’t have the 8% attack increase so it’s more of a circumstance set for me. Its bonus attack when using the rage chili has helped me tremendously in harder event battles. But in the Arena, Finisher and Gladiator are hard to beat…

[pixelyzed]

Had no trouble with this event except lack of stamnina at the end and lack of time to play throughout. I finished first in my team the previous event but 7th here.

But no issues with the battles.

Best classes against these kinds of ninja pigs are multiple hit classes. Elite Samurai with Dragonbreath (it’s M68 ant hits 3×1003), Elite Canoneer with Gladiator’s Punch (it’s M68 and hits 3×1037) and I brought Elite Bard for healing and moved her up to M70 in the process :) (she hits 3263). With 4 birds battles I brought Blues Treasure Hunters with Artillery as my Beep! is still half L62 (it’s M68 and hits 3974).

Gladiator’s Punch has become my favorite Bomb set. I find it more effective in the arena than even Finisher has it increases all birds attack against a banner below 50% health. Outside the arena, the 45% chance to attack a random enemy helps a lot.

[pixelyzed]

Got Elite Samurai earlier tonight. Happy about that one! I’m 4th in my team now and we’re leading 122080 points to 86100. I don’t think I’ve been on a winning event team before! :)

[pixelyzed]

Yep, the Titan is much tougher this time although my birds are strong enough that I can beat him everytime. But I lost one bird on the very first battle which should not have happened ;) I wasn’t expecting its attacks to do this much damage. I’m level 70 and my weakest classes are at Mastery level 65.

But I just got Elite Samurai an hour ago and I’m 5th in my (winning!) team. Ran out of a pretty big stash of FE this morning so can not re-spin the wheel much today.

I’m using a mix of some my strongest and some other classes I want to level up :

– Elite Pirate M68 (it is my highest mastery Bomb class)
– Elite Bard M68 (my Witch and Druid are M70)
– Elite Treasure Hunters M67 (My Tricksters is M70)
– Elite Paladin M69 (my highest mastery Red class)

If I can stay in the top 6 and my team keeps winning I should level up a few classes with this event!

[pixelyzed]

I got lucky again during the longer 5xRR. Got Level 72 replacements for my Valliant L62 tapestry as well as for Bomb’s Boarding! Naval Ammunition and Red’s DragonScale so all these sets are now full L72. Also got a bunch of set items for Red: Steel Force+Wall, Titan’s Wrap+Grip, Primal Axe+Spear and half of my old favorite Banner Braker. Also got Rock from Scissors and Spoon from Sweet and these are incomplete.

No video rolls in the caves for a while for me either.

So far I’m liking this 2.0 update. Just the fact that Facebook remains connected is awesome.

[pixelyzed]

I spent quite a lot of LCs in the 5xRR but I was extremely lucky this time got a lot of stuff too :)

Fpr Matilda, I got the complete Nightmare set, Lasting Song defensive part (lonely set item for now), Sweet’s Spoon (also lonely), half of Perfect Balance (lonely) and Heavenly Case from Cleansing Light (lonely). Cleansing Light used to be my main Matilda set as it’s definitely powered for attack but Nature’s Blessing is working great for me until I complete Lasting Song again.

For Bomb I got half of Gladiator which completes that set. Got the first half on a free spin last week. Still waiting on Boarding!’s Naval Ammunition though.

For Blues I got Hunter’s Bow completing that set. Also got Piercing Needle and Plushies which are both lonely items. Never really liked the Piercing set as others have more advantages for me like Artillery and Beep!. For the latter I’m still waitng on a Lvl72 Remote Control. I’ll probably keep Plushies as the extra health can be usefull sometimes.

For Red I got 4 (yes four!) complete sets: Flaring Presence, Protector’s Aura, Grand Slam and Primal Power + half of Banner Breaker which has been my main Red set for a long time. Protector was my main set early on but Dragon has been my main set for ages now even if half of mine is still L62. I never really played with any of the others above as I never got complete sets before.

I was equally lucky for Chuck completing L72 Lightning, Mana and Bones + a complete Phoenix set and half of Chronos.

So can’t complain this month! :)

[pixelyzed]

I already had Mythic Resurrection and got Mythic Shroud last week. But Valliant with Mythic Resurrection is hard to beat :)

[pixelyzed]

7 more arrows to go to get Elite Treasure Hunters. Currently sitting in 2nd place. This event has been pretty easy for me so far. And it helped level up some birds for me.

I now have 3 classes at level 70 (Druid, Witch and Tricksters) and 3 more getting closer at level 67 (Pirate, Palladin and Mage). Rest is a mix of 64 and 65 and 2 at 66. Getting there slowly :)
