    Other f2p things i do
    - save every Broadmow / relickeeper pieces for future chases
    - i have a decent amount of silver so I am buying uncommons from market so I can save misteries for emergency rushes but I have training food as well

    I'm now 8.5 months in free to play, and I did not notice any change between the resources I get.
    I also can't imagine building Scyl of the Drakes any time soon, and I can't really imagine that Visix will be any different. I assumed these champions should be obsolete for most people by the time you get them, and a complete waste of books. Building redundant champions, that is a very late game thing, and if you have done the fusions in the last half year, I think both of these champions are exceptionally redundant.

    • @ColredPlaysRSL
      @ColredPlaysRSL  Місяць тому +2

      The resources you get in the first 30-60 days are boosted by all the easy missions/tasks/quests from the early game. After that, you really need to be farming the entire game diligently to keep the resources flowing comfortably, and that takes time and dedication. As for Scyl and Visix, those are two fantastic champions I still use on my account 3.5 years in. Less than I used to, of course, but still frequently. Each player will take their own approach to the game, and your approach may not value Scyl or Visix that much, and that's totally fine and legit, but I think most F2Pers will find very good value in those champs when they get them. In my opinion, there have been no fusions in the past 8 months that would change that.

      @aleksandarpopadic7760 Місяць тому

      @@ColredPlaysRSL think hes getting at legendary books , cuz they are extremely hard to grind from fusion tourneys / events . Yes you can just book revive on Scyl if ur lucky enough so its "just" 2 books but that wont happen you will need a lot more then that, but nobody is happy about booking Visix provoke is 1 book but ally protection is 5 books and if ur lucky enough that not a single book goes into a1 .... thats 6 leg books ... for f2p thats horror . So think his point is if he pulls champ like Duchess / Kaja / any leg with better kit .. he would rather save books for them . That is exactly what i did and it skyrocket-ed my account and im doing cursed city 2/3 amius keys in 7th month and beaten my first normal doom tower , not even having UNM team . So in that sense Scyl / Visix are really redundant for people who pulled any better champ . Totally agree with u Colred on Scyl only cuz of 1 reason - control - aoe stun /dec speed/dec tm(and revive with ally) , so yes if player doesnt pull better leg champ , Scyl is awesome , key wording is "should be obsolete for most people by the time you get them" and that is case for many free daily login champs and doom towers champs who are horrible . The only 2 f2p champs worth investing time into 100% for long term - arbi and mithrala(smallest chest on hydra gives 2-4 fragments) . Also 100% agree with Colred on "Each player will take their own approach to the game" , this is the key thing and we all get different champs so its hard to discuss "general strategy" for raid

    I've felt that the energy cap should have been raised to 150 or 160 back when they first raised the max level to 100. I'm surprised that it's been one of those QoL things that players just accept is never going to change.

    • @ColredPlaysRSL
      @ColredPlaysRSL  Місяць тому +1

      Oh, I hate it. I would prefer 200, but I'd settle for 160. It's the smallest, easiest change to make to improve the QOL of ALL F2Pers and spenders instantly.

  • @manikai420
    @manikai420 Місяць тому +3

    It would be cool if for clan bosses, plarium gave us a playtest for each. for example, UNM CB you playtest a few teams and once you have it how you want it, you can save it and then use it as a quick battle. So on and so forth. I know other games have a setup like that and it would give many players more wiggle room.

    • @ColredPlaysRSL
      @ColredPlaysRSL  Місяць тому +2

      I agree. That's how both Hydra and Chimera work. However, in case you don't know, if you exit your game (like, force-quit it) during a CB run, the key won't be used. If you END the run, the key WILL be used. So you can kind of experiment with CB runs, but you have to keep force-quitting the game to do so. I hope they change this is in the future.

    • @ColredPlaysRSL
      @ColredPlaysRSL  Місяць тому +2

  • @mahmoudsupes2461

    they definitely need to change the cap for energy. make it 480 instead of 130 and adjust the price for energy refills. and adjust rewards and other things accordingly.

    2 of my favorite CCs in 1 package - great stuff!
    I have a small question... I´m currently sitting on 19K energy (lvl 59 account, ca.8 month into the game) and can´t get "rid" of it with daily stuff. How is it possible to use it efficiently w/o BlueStacks or some other bot program? I´d love to level champs/food more but don´t know how lol
    Another thing is using HHs Optimizer to gear out champions - is there a big difference for the AI between using GPU optimization Brute Force Optimizerb because i hesitate buying a new GPU just because of the game ;-)

    • @ColredPlaysRSL
      @ColredPlaysRSL  Місяць тому +2

      I don't know about your graphics question, but for using up energy, you have several good options. One is to use it to complete a fusion. You typically need to complete 3 dungeon divers events which take around 5k energy each. The other thing you can do is stop consuming any refill potions. Let's them live in your mailbox until you need them. Finally, if you're out of multi-battles, try running manual campaign runs while watching a movie or binge watching a show. you'll make a ton of chickens, and burn your way through the energy faster than you might expect. I hope these suggestions help. Good luck!

    I buy the $10 gem pack almost every month. Why? Time. It allows me to play this game on my own time and schedule without too much worry about min/maxing energy usage. It doesn’t eliminate min/maxing at all. I only have so many gems therefore still limited on energy/shards/refills (any) that has to be managed to complete goals and events.

  • @Slimo74
    @Slimo74 Місяць тому +2

    Good point : I don't use all these expressions like "free2play-friendly" etc.. better say "beginner-friendly". Because after 5 years of f2p, if you are a little lucky, you can have a bunch of good champs. Ex : I just got Galathir. By the way, HH should not call his challenge "free2play challenge". Because it conveys the idea that "f2p = new account".

Hence, many of the stages i cant complete cos of gears.

    • @ColredPlaysRSL

      Luck can have a major impact on your account, and so can money, but neither one really substitutes for skill. I've done takeovers on a LOT of spenders' accounts, and despite the fact that some spenders have spent thousands or even tens-of-thousands of dollars, my F2P account is stronger than theirs. Even though their roster is better, my accomplishments are greater. That's definitive proof that skill still matters. Especially when you play for years.

      In last year's F2P challenge, there were MANY competitors who completed the February fusion, after starting accounts on Jan. 8. In other words, they started their first fusion is roughly 30 days, and successfully completed it when their accounts were roughly 45 days old. Many more competitors completed the March fusion. Some players did both. This was 100% F2P - no money spent and no extra CC resources. My personal opinion is that 6 months is a really healthy time for most first-time RAID F2Pers to try their hand at a fusion. BUT, if you are really motivated, save your resources, and do your research, you can absolutely complete your first fusion 3 to 4 months into the game. So, please, take it down a notch. Every player's experience is different, but Boozor knows what he's talking about.

      Because you cannot. Doesn't mean others cannot. Person can get arbiter in 3 months lol. Fusions are done in 1 month believe it or not.

      I've made my position on this topic very clear. I consider Boozor F2P. In addition, he's an excellent CC, he understands F2P better than 99.99% of players, and (most importantly) he's a friend and guest of the channel. You are entitled to your own opinion, but I will be removing any further negative comments of this nature directed at my guests.

      Very nice! Peydma was my first ever void epic. She was a game-changer on my account for a long time. I eventually outgrew her, but even at end-game I still find spot uses for her in places like FW, DT, and Sintranos. And skullcrown is just god-tier everywhere for a very long time. Enjoy!
