    Default Attacking lv 10 Npc's

    Right, My friend needs help on s150.

    He has:

    • Archery 10
    • Military Tradition 10
    • Medicine 9
    • Iron Working 9
    • Horse Back Riding 8
    • BUT.. Compass 5


    I have the correct technologies of for farming 10's, so i don't know what effect compass 5 will have on the losses?

    Should he attack the lv 10 NPC with compass 5?

    Also he has a Att hero 155.

    In my opinion 155 is too low without level 10 medicine

    I agree with lucas. You could probably get away with a lower medicine/compass if you had much more atk. But at 155 you're relying on your layers to stop the defending warrs from reaching your arch as well as absorbing wall def. You can try adding 3-4k ballis to the mix maybe. I know it slows down the march time extremely, but it does help make up for some attack power.

    dont think adding mechs would be the best idea with the compass lower then the hbr

    I think I see where this statement is going.. You're thinking the ballis may end up in front of the layers? I don't have the game available at the moment to look at base speed and tech bonus but I'm not sure the differnece between hbr8 and compass6 is enough to allow the ballis to move faster than the layers.

    And regards to scouting for a lower defending hero, I think that theory is still up for debate. In my opinion its a waste of time to scout for a lower hero. You have know way of knowing what attack the defending hero has anyway. And I have seen low losses on Lv30+ heros as well as high loses on Lv2-3, along with everything in between. But again, this is just my opinion based on research in the forums and personal experience.

    I don't think the low compass will hurt to much. But with that low of an attack stat he may still get some high losses 30-40k for a few times. I have found with that low of a hero it seems to be more random. I have leveled up many heroes from the 130's with any where from a total loss to 30-40k losses, or have had a few heroes that I got lucky with and never had losses over 7k from the time i started leveling them in the 130's. I would recommend scouting the NPC for a very low level hero at least for a few hits.

    Im on s149 and i have a 140 attack hero... my research is about that i think my med is lvl 7 and compass is 7 as well...
    i use 2k wars, works, pikes, scouts, swords, 88k archers, 2k trans... and lose 6-8k archers with layers all gone.... its costly but you gotta lose troops to make troops

    Those arent bad losses with med only at 7, i thought that it would make a much bigger diffrence then that.

    No the low compas wont make much of a difference with a NORMAL wave. I was refering to the poster that was advising to add 4k ballista to the wave to lower losses. I may be wrong though, since hbr also influences porter speed. Or I might be wrong all together its been a long time since I've had to account for research levels in anything, so im having trouble remembeing what does influences what lol

    Default True, compass won't matter

    Medecine will. But, with a hero at 155, if you have war ensigns, use one. Send 2k wrkr, 2k warr, 4k scout, 100 sword, 93-94k arch. Remember to scout for a hero in the npc as low as possible (though NPC heroes from 1-4 have given some odd results). This should end in about 7k losses. I lvl a lot of heroes this way, but I have also won a lot of ensigns on wheel.
