Thread: Farming a LVL 10 NPC

  1. #121

    Default Farming?

    I've managed to CAP a Lv10 before but got trashed trying to farm one.

    All Lv10 no buff
    Hero ATT 147

    What would be recommended for farming Lv10 NPCs that are 1.4, 2 and 3 miles away. Also I'd like to understand how distance affects the battle if in fact it does?

    Thanks

    I saw your post Neville but you also mentioned your Compass was Lv8. I know for a fact that having Lv10 Compass myself will greatly change things as my troops will move in that much faster.

    PC... you can try LaVache's layout (1k warrior/swords/pike, 2k transport, rest archers), but you would need to refresh the enemy hero until you get a low level hero (but even then it's not a 100% sure thing), or else you'd lose up to 16k archer losses, on top of the 3k melee troop layering.

    Or you can do the 85k archer, 2k transport, 13k ballista build (that I use). It doesn't matter what the enemy hero is, you'd lose about 10k~13k archers per run.

    Either one works.

    Yep, Lvl10 compass would probably mean you would take more losses, and only stop that if you used a 200+ attk hero, well thats what I have picked up off the forums.

    For me LvL8 compass seems like a good place to stop.....

    As above scouting for the lowest level hero seems to have an affect, and also I sent an additional 1k layer of workers...possibly made a difference, but for meatshield they cost nothing...

    I might give the same attack a try with cats, maybe 500 see if that changes the battle much...nowing my luck I will get more casulties because of range!!

    yes drizztix, we all know you can farm lvl 10's with your lvl 300 attack hero, but this guide was made for players new to lvl 10 farming. I was new to it too, this guide was just a written document of my experiences, and i'm glad it's helped other players out.

    But for those of you who are stuggling, i'm sorry. I wish i could tell you EXACTLY what was happening to your troops, but if i did then this game wouldn't be very fun.

    What i do know are a few simple rules of thumb (THE FIRST TWO AREN'T FULLY TESTED, WHICH IS WHY THEY'RE RULES OF THUMB!!)


    - The higher the compass level, the worse your losses will be

    - Ballistae are a waste, since they move so slow, don't send them

    - NPC's respawn 100% of troops every 1 HOUR, they respawn 100% resources every 8 HOURS!!

    - This game is different for everyone, what works for one may not work for another. If you've followed this guide perfectly and still lose a ton of troops, maybe you should try something else.

    I'm moments away from compass 9. Do you really think that I should stop the research and just stick with 8??

    My attack hero is 155, everything else is @ 10 (cept HBR which is 9)
