90 million credits on tavern tuesday

[Andy]

What you are stating are basic things that most veteran players already do day in and day out yet do not come close to even gaining 10 million credits in a single day. Come on, let us in on the secret. How do you do it?


Here is a computational breakdown of a day's activities for a number 1 player of a realm of a fairly active server from 1-10, assuming its a level 80 account:

3 pirate sails per day: 800k credits total
Claim salary (of a lt col.): 1500k credits total
Claim guild benefits (of a level 5 guild): 500k credits
Guild wars winner: 700k credits
Labyrinth: 2x 600-score runs would net you 1000k credits total
Number 1 in arena: 2000k credits

Boss events: no gain, or barely any gain, as the amount of credits you win are almost the same as the ones you used up to boost to 80% power
Ragnarok event: no gain, or barely any gain, with the same reason as stated as Boss events

Daily total so far: 6500k credits.

So you are able to gain the remaining 6500k credits from 10 revenges daily, and from the Noble Lady? Assuming you gain 1500k credits from the noble lady alone, you would have to find 10 enemies with 12.5 million credits each, to farm 500k from each of them 10 times.

What I've stated are pretty much the best-case scenarios. You can lose a guild war battle, or have none. You can miss getting a 600, or even a 500 score in the labyrinth every now and then. You can get sunk in pirates while sailing. And most of all, the people you revenge or "farm" each day, can have a lot less credits than 12.5m each.

Am I right?

You forgot the Shrine and if your Guild has the 3 level 4 cities that is 150% bonus and each level of Devoutness gives you an additional 10%.

I feel your pain Legolas

I have spent about 20m so far today. Have not picked a purple or gold at all. And only gotten 270 spirits

Legolas, luck in this game goes through streaks, I'm sure you know that by now. When you're having bad luck after 1-2 mill credits, it's best to wait for at least 15-30 minutes before trying again. If you blew all your credits during a "bad streak" time, well....that's how it is.

Sorry for the loss of credits but you can't just muscle through luck that seems to be partially determined by the server code for various times of day.

Case in point: Just after server rollover today I picked up Adamanti and Dawnbringer cards back-to-back, then this morning near Cerberus time I pulled an Adamanti card out of a 100 contribution guild chest along with getting plenty of frags for a Vitality then lucking out in the Rune Temple with another Vitality, the last I needed.

By waiting for good moments, I succeeded, but I did that by not blowing all my resources at once. Sometimes I have bad days too where I get nothing, but it's patience that pays off in the end.

I keep hearing this or something similar about the timing. Things seems to be better at certain times of the day. If you are having bad luck stop and do it later, etc.

The now 20m credits ive spent today has been spread out over a course of 6+ hours. And the luck is bad the whole time. 13 spirits per million (about 12 refreshes) is horrible luck and to not get any hero on top of it is ridiculous. I've tried doing it while others are having good luck and when others arent.

I stop after 4-5 refreshes of no heroes and do something else and come back later. And guess what happens when I come back? Another 4-5 refreshes without a hero. Normally I don't complain much about the tavern, but I really feel it has been nerfed since the last patch.

Yet I have guild mates who get 700 spirits for 10m credits. And get 20 frags for 25m coins.

IMO there is something else going on in this game effecting luck. And to be honest I think its either
A. Developers going into accts and setting a luck rate
or
B. The luck rate we get is determined by some strange formula that takes multiple variables into account

[Greenly]

i spent 35m credits in the tavern and got 2 alexa cards, of one which also failed, haha. spirits i was lucky though, got 1k spirits for my credits, so i cant really complain, but sheesh, a gold hero card would have been nice...

[Revan]

If you are on a bad streak you should probably stop. Whatever affects the pseudo-random number generator is likely pushing the outcomes into the fail category more than normal.

P.S. Today spent 16 million credits so far and gotten 2 alexa cards, 1 saffron card (failed of course), and one adamanti card.

[DaBooMan]

I don't bother with tavern Tuesday for this exact reason rather keep my creds for Thursday.

Only thing I don't quite get is your vip3 and general? Or was I mistaken?

20m Credits spent after reset and I got 2 Saffron Cards, both succeeded but I don't use her. 1 Calvin card that succeeded and 1 Cianna card that failed. No gold cards. In fact, in my whole time on server 1, I have flipped 2 gold hero cards. Once for Shayd's Card and once For Bloodstorm recruitment. Every Gold card/hero before and since has been bought with spirits, which I will admit are very easily gained since the last patch. I will not participate in the Tavern Tuesdays again, instead saving for other weekly events.

I agree with your luck assessment, Matt. There is most certainly some strange formula that takes into account such factors as Rank/Event positions/Gear Upgrades/HR movement/Quest activity/Spending, etc etc. I'm not saying I don't agree with this, but it is most certainly there. I have had some bad days and even some bad weeks. Sometimes I get 1st place in banish events for 9 days straight, other times I find myself fighting very hard for it. Frags, Hero cards and everything else are all dependent on this luck factor it seems. Right now I'm on the upside, and I think it's all about learning how to spot where you are on that given day. It seems some players may already have.

To the OP... Tavern Tuesday is of no interest to me. Sorry to hear of your massive credit loss. Better luck with another event maybe.

I seem to recall you flipping DAWN in the 1st hour or 2 of the server, but maybe it was shayd

i would be delighted with you results fro 20m credits on a Tuesday.

I disagree on spirits - for me they are no easier to get, in fact I think I get less now.

I know people who get 10 times the spirits I do for the same amount of credits spent.

I dont mind the luck factor, but for the 2 ends of teh spectrum to be so far apart is ridiculous, and one person should not have almost pure bad luck for 2 weeks straight
