Medal Drop Tips... No Complaining Here Plz!
Sorry for posting a thread on this if one already exists... I don't particularly care to weed through all the "drop rate" complaints. LOL.
Anyways... I play on server 66.
When I have a good day to dedicate to playing, I can find 10 medals per day out of 40-50 attacks. Yes, approximately at 20-25% chance to find a medal.
I attack only L10 valleys. Any of them will do as long as there are no archers or cavalry. This requires some patience while scouting at times, because a good majority of them have either/both.
Make sure you have ~120k archers and a good handful of scouts. Once you have found at least 4-5 valleys with NO archers or cavs, send 30k archers AND 1-10 scouts to each one.
My hero's attributes did not matter! Be careful sending very low ATT heroes, though they should be okay if you send 30k arch.
Do not hit the same valley more than once an hour!
You also DO NOT need to "CONQUER." Keep your valley slots full. This removes the frustration of having to recall and abandon every time.
You may be able to lower the amount of archers for many of the valleys, but keep in mind that the more you send, the more resources you plunder. I send 15k to some of them just so I can hit more at the same time.
I cannot guarantee what you will get from what valleys. I seem to get an array of different things. I myself have found more courage and wisdom medals than anything, freedom medals were the least found.
Patience and time are key!
