You have to consider getting stargaze orbs if you hit champion for arena store xd, after cecia you can never go wrong with rowan,hewyn and the rest is all account dependant, odie sup+ is a must for big dmg boost , and 100gems is worth for hero essence for sure imo

"Reinier + Shakir" strat I haven't tried, but if anyone is curious you can also do - Reinier + Korin (Korin just jumps back to shield an ally), and also Reinier + Viperian are some of the strats some people could use (I do not use this as idk about using Viperian in arena, maybe some afk stages or story, BUT Viperian just does not swap out, so the foe teleports to your side and Viperian stays in place)

The level of progression is definitely slower when you don’t get those amazing characters at mythic or mythic+!! Even as a F2P, progression is really slow until you get those character copies. I play pretty casually but I am at AFK Stage 565. I prioritize copies of the current standard banner characters in the game. Unless you have a character that only needs that one copy to benefit your account, I think having a stacked roster of the standard characters is a must to progress. Keep up the awesome content!!👍

Fan of this format for your channel. My only recommendation is that you both try to speak less over each other. Since he's your guest, allow him to finish his sentences and thoughts before adding input. It feels almost disruptive at times.

Reinier does get better at L+ with hero focus, by boosting/decreasing the damage. Pretty significant when used in PvP

Funny, this basicly summs up everything i'm doing already :) Cecia was rly huge! I was able to Clean Up the hole Mountains with only cecia being at 150, the rest was still only 140 so i couldn't progress anymore for 2 days basicly >. Does this also happen to p2p players as well or is it only f2p ? Love the vids btw!

Loved this -super helpful! I had a question you two might have advice on. I got super lucky and pulled multiple Eirons early. He’s mythic now, while the rest are Legendary or under. Is it better to try to play to this OP unit based on the hand I was given, I know late game he gets amazing, or should I still focus on the meta early game teams you two discussed?

@DangerGrey

Ай бұрын

Depends how far into the game you are really. Don't try to force play the meta, like we said, you should play what you are given, BUT also just because you have 4 copies of Eironn doesnt mean hes going to be savage lol - he really comes online at M+ like so many heroes do, when he can group everyone up right off the start of combat. His +10 is really fantastic, but I havent had the temp essence to spare to build it up yet myself, but if you are a spender then leaning into the Eironn and maxing his EX to 10 early would be a strong play. If you aren't, i would erm, just use him until i start losing 😆 I have 4 copies as well on global, but i basically never use him yet. just excited he's coming along nicely :)) except in Battle Drills actually - in BD he is absolutely savage, so scratch what I just said lol. He helps a TON get those farm teams down before the 60s mark for the full refund of +6 stam back, pair him with parisa or cecia and basically anyone as a third, and you will be clearing all the farm mobs using only a TOTAL of 18 stamina per battle~

Oh damn someone can write the most important tips from that vid 😅

What I learned in this video is that free to play players should bide their time. Spending diamonds for letters and maximize discounts in store. I'm actually surprised that f2p is viable on this game. But as every mmo's out there, f2p players has no chance competing for the top spots.

I use supreme smokey and mythic Rowan. Need to max them out.

Great discussion with Dangergrey. Really enjoyed the talk, especially because the focus was mainly on F2P. I have a question for you two. As a F2P, who would you spend your first 75 temporal essences into first, to hit the +10 EX weapon? Odie or Marilee? Odie will be able to ult faster with his heart breaker, Marilee would deal way more damage to bosses with EX +10. My Odie is already Supreme and i am building up my Marilee since a week and she is half way done to Mythic. I am barely able to keep myself in the top 100 in dream realm right now and the +10 into Marilee might makes it easier to secure that top 100 spot in dream realm for the future. What are your thoughts?

@Cogoxd

Ай бұрын

Marilee is better in more bosses than odie if you have to choose

@DangerGrey

Ай бұрын

you sound really dream realm focused, so I'd say Marilee is the much stronger play there, but you have to consider how much more usable Eddie is all around, too, whereas she is only usable in Dream Realm and on BD bosses, right now. So, I'd honestly say do Eddie first, because as a F2P you arent likely to get many more them for a very long time, and he will help you in so many more areas. But if you want to help your dream realm, Marilee is the way to go, and additionally, they will probably fix the temp essence situation sooner than later because it's just completely untenable right now how scarce they are for the long term so I dont expect it to last this way. hope that non-answer is useful to you LOL

@Bishop3k

Ай бұрын

@@DangerGrey Yeah, thats exactly my dilemma. I had basically the same thought process. Odie will help me massively in all other areas, since the initial energy will start his ult chain much earlier, which helps especially, when the enemy team has a lot of burst. On the other hand if i upgrade Marilee to EX +10, i might be able to keep myself on this server in the top 100 (maybe with Marilee EX +10 i can even push it to top 50), and i could feed those temporal essences into Odie. It's really a though choice. Thank you for responding.

Art is good and these types of "afk" games fit mobile genre... I wish other games had same polish to them. The best games on play store are either from my middle school days or copies of their PC version.

Volkin I have 2 questions that are kinda related: 1 - Which Exclusive Equipment should people prioritize (Which Champions are priorite, which Level they should stop leveling) and 2 - Which Guild chest is better the one that gives you summons resources or the one that gives you Essence (Exclusive Equipment/Legendary+ Skills resource)?

At least for your first question, there is a GREAT guide on Prydwen on what to buy from the Emporium!

7:20 u were talking about a pull that u got smokey on 27.... I just got it while watching you 25 away from pity what was that call...

when you arrive to champion in the arena shop appear 5 crystals for the stargaze which costs 1200 for one, so if you close to champion dont use your arena coins

does the arena store have new characters to buy on the next reset?

My Cecia is still stuck at Legendary... It's sooooooo frustrating kind of. But my Thoran just needs 1 more copy for Mythic + and he's a beast so... yeah.

Florabelle is flipping op especially at mythic. I spammed the rank up summons for her and it was the best investment I could have made

Acorns are a pinch point for you because rate up gives more acorns than standard

*ritual chants* SMOKEY... SMOKEY... SMOKEY...

Right side guy look like Frudo from The lord of the rings

@DangerGrey Please show off that Reiner+Shakir comp in a video. I'm struggleing so hard with PvP and have both units.

Crazy you got elijah wood on

server 49. champion tier. pushed with viperion, thoran eironn, rowan and cecia. dont need some crazy units.

Why is their monthly more expensive than genshin's, why is their graphics more demanding than genshin's?? Can anyone explain here, is it bad optimization or gave the game actually required more investment to be completed which points to bad resource management.

I am almost 3 weeks in and I am mythic plus and his really good I could push him for supreme plus as a f2p I will make more sense to get more mythic plus than 1 supreme plus

in champ you can't not nuy pvp tickets. I get attacked 10 times per recet (so about -80) and if i do my attacks properly i can get at most 120-140 point with 10 attacks so i can at most go up 40-60 points if i win (i'm on the lower end of champ and my team is lower power than most)

I threw 30 individual letters in the Volkin superstitious way and got to pity. Imma just pull 10s from not on.

2-4 copies is plenty, just enough so he can live on the fights where he's necessary, which is especially frequent the higher up you try to push progression quickly (more damage coming at you fast means the potions are the only way to survive burst dps ( = damage per second for the person above who said we werent new player friendly (sorry!!! will try to remember this in future!!!)) honestly 1 copy is plenty now though, since vala is back available to add to wishlist next to temesia!

your server is just a gem. 16 days of login, full f2p and still rank 11? damn that's luck -- enjoy your wolfslayer title :)

i have the same shirt its from hollister right?

Ай бұрын

oh it DEFINITELY is worth it as f2p IMHO, as it's some of the only access we get!! and the arena heroes are all useful, but none of them as MUST builds besides an M+ Cecia super early, and then eventually an M+ Hewynn... but this will change over time of course, and also it always depends on your team... but i so far I feel that every single stargazer you can get your hands on you absolutely must if you want to keep up as f2p in current state of the game ♥

that is why u funnel into something your account is going in be it is a luck game and just have fun until we get all we need and then quit to the next game that is the cycle of these games

Putting A list heroes on Epic recruitment. For F2p.

I have Stellar Crystal because I don’t get it for free :( only option to spend diamonds but if I use all of my diamonds to buy I can’t progress and I will have no heroes. I think maybe after when all of my heroes are M+ I will start buying

is that elijah wood?!

I made a mistake on my account, I hade the option to pull a celestial or a hydrogen. I wanted reinier but I thought that berial was a better support. I was dead wrong, berial great and all, but he isn’t what I was looking for or wanted

The Rainier/Shakir combo is something I used before watching this video! :3

I don't get one point, as free to play player is better burn diamond for summoning every day or is better to hoard them (because I have redeemed all the code and I have a good amount of diamond)

Can someone make a video on "Control"? What is it exactly and which Units do it?

@DangerGrey

Ай бұрын

the way that Cecia puts enemies into a 2-4 second stunlock with the thorns, and they all sit there and cant move, that is an example of control. crowd control is the frequent term you'll hear, or CC most commonly, and it means keeping the enemies in some kind of orderly fashion so we arent dealing with 5 at a time the whole fight... loosely speaking :) there isnt a whole lot of cc heroes in the game yet but there will be, as it's a staple of this kind of rpg fighting genre combat, from gachas to their birthplace in MMOs like EverQuest and later World of Warcraft. Arden's root, is another very strong and important example of CC, which you will hear a LOT about for the next two months as people begin to progres into Abyss!! root is one of the oldest and most widespread commonplace CC in existence in gaming. a simple root is easy to understand i think, too. enemy cant go nowhere. if it's a caster it's not nearly as effective as if theyre a melee, for obvious reasons. hope that quick clinic helps a little? i'll make a video about it soon just for you!! (ok, and your 27,000 friends here too maybe ) great question!!!

They must have spent so much money to be further than a year's worth of f2p progress within only 4 weeks of playing. They have been there for a week now so there must be some kind of wall they hit at around 30 million and it must be the Paragon levels and synergy levels that where they hit a wall and progress really slow - WOAH he's not at paragon yet... in a year. damn
