    Made this on trying to get least loss possible but yeah I might make one on phonies.. It's basically the same you send breaker then another, then 39 ponies waves, just 5.5k abs means a bit of loss.... just same way, if doing it with cav I've sent 90k cav wave then 38 5k waves afterwards... some loss but faster then this method here.. Will add it onto this guide soon.

    Doesn't have to be, I just find it's easier to do it on the hour then at a certin minute in the hour.. remember all attacks have to hit within' 1 minute to reduce loss.

    How to Instant take a B10 (Level 10 NPC).

    That's a whole minute I have done them down to 3 seconds of combined hits from first to last. Depending on the troops you use , cav work as well but troops are not an issue when you have 966 attack hero. Also if you are maxed on your city's you can do the 40 hits on the npc and a alliance member can send 10k arch and take the city with his first hit that hits 10 seconds after yours do with low level hero thus keeping some of the walls up.

    Instant is such an interesting word on Evony, JP's guide about instant armies on age 2 which can take months to make and there's this guide about instantly taking an NPC that can take hours to do...

    It's instant in the effect that once the first attack lands, you have the city in a matter of seconds; whereas a normal b10 cap requires multiple resends.

    EDIT: Upon re-reading what I just said, I realize it was extremely redundant. I apologize for this. It's what happens when I get distracted in the middle of a post. I've fixed this.

    Well, no. A matter of seconds isn't instantaneous either...

    I prefer to take my B10s from close up with 1 or 2 cities to be honest, from one city you can take a B10 in under 6 minutes (My best is 4:23 or something.) And if you're going for the 'instant' approach, you've got the march time*2 of locked cities which can't move anything from them. Not to mention the mount of food costed to take the npc. A 3 hour march = 6 hours of no farming, that's a massive loss in resources to me.

    I honestly only see this being used for taking an NPC at extreme distances, but either way, you're right, it'll tie up too many cities and take too much time.

    That's what teleporters are for.

    If you were doing this to get at an individual player then I'd see the point of it, but I don't like to hold grudges or hunt people down, I'm too much of a 'It's just a game' mentality. And if I do I'd rather move in with a nice big war city with full walls from an advanced port.
