Thread: Farming a LVL 10 NPC

  1. #501

    Default Can you tell me where I went wrong....

    I'm getting mixed results with this method. I wish I had the report still, but a week or ten days ago I hit a level ten NPC with less than 10k losses. The last two times I lost 43k & change and just over 50k. Here are the links:

    battle39.evony.com/default.html?logfile/20100118/45/f0/45f006d592dc0444c0afb330dfdd7aac.xml. I did not use any clearing troops with this attack. All research is maxed, hero's attack level was 135. NPC is 3 miles out.

    battle39.evony.com/default.html?logfile/20100123/c0/0c/c00c4bec648e54ef273d20e820cb7115.xml With this, I used 2 clearing waves of 5k warriors each timed to hit within 30-45 seconds before the attack wave. Same research, hero's attack level was 137, same distance; but added 1k scouts to the layer.

    So, what do you think i did wrong OR could be doing better?

    This isn't a complaint, just a request for input.

    The NPC was 1.4 miles away. My hero has a 130 atk. I have level 10 on all research except warehousing which is level 6 I believe. This really was not worth it to me, but I figured I would give it a try nonetheless. I find it better to just farm level 5's, take no losses, and go from there. If someone can let me know what I did wrong here, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

    Your Hero isn't strong enough, you need to make sure you attack with at least a 230 attach and that can still lead to 25k losses. Also, the layering i like to use is 92k Arch, 1k swords/pike, 4k scouts, 2k trans. If you have Ivory horns, use them. Will cut your losses down to about 4k-5k/ time

    the higher your attack hero, the less losses you will have

    The links aren't working for my computer some reason, but to make the attacks most effective, you want to send layering with the archers you send, like i posted above, i've always found 1k swords/pike & 4k scouts to be effective in bringing down my losses. so when you send your hit out, send the 92karch w/ 2k trans with that and you will be fine. The higher attack your hero is, the less losses you will have.

    This is just what i have seen through both using the horn (my hero) and not using the horn

    W/ it the warrior, worker works better

    BUT

    without it you have lighter arch loss using swords/pikes. To me i'd rather loose the fluff then my archers. but it gets to a point to where it's a matter of preference and depends on your purpose in hitting the npc in the first place.

    Try 4k worker/warrior layer with an attack of 150 of higher at least, it should work, expecting 6-8k losses(too far back cant remember the exact range) of archers. Once you get over 250 atk or so you can start using 1k warr 7k scouts as layers. Hy heros are 314 and 340 atk right now, they typically see between 2-3k scout deaths with 5-6k(and sometimes in the mid 4k range) archer deaths.

    i figured someone would post an intelligent reply. I'll try your method next time and let you know how i did. And, sheesh, I have like 5 war horns, so i'll try that too.
