Bosses weren't designed to be easy Andy and making them easy and would kinda diminish the whole point, so keep plugging away you will soon progress. The whole lv4 chip embed thing is a bit steep but lucky for me I chose not to socket my lv4s straight away. Managed to merge 4 lv5s now, yay me!
Stars are costly. I've only got 2 heroes to 7, so your're doing better than me. Tavern is the same for everyone, sometimes it rocks most of the time it sucks. Mind you accumlating those spirits come in handy. Pursuer is a pain, that said I'm lv88 and 16m power and have come close to beating him. Darn it Shayd!!
Everyone has cooldowns, if it's that much of a drag maximise Thor's Thursday. Most players don't give a monkey's about GWs, they value the buffs much more. For them and me included it's worth the Assistant and rewards. Don't join Ragnarok, it's optional and if it's not your thing don't bother.
I like the Laby, it gets my brain matter functioning and again the rewards are worth doing it at least twice a day. It's the thrill of hoping I'll get across in Caribbean Pirates which makes it exciting and as I have much more than 3 players who can sink me I get sunk a lot more than you do Andy.
Don't do Cerb or Baal or just don't boost to get in the top 10. Gem problem solved. Well players have become wise to avoiding other players lurking in the Wilds, if they see a potential threat they leave.
Lady is a bit tedious but we try to make it fun in our guild to past the time. Could do with upping thr rewards a bit but I doubt it'll be changed.
If Tynon is really making you this miserable then it's not the game for you. Try something else.
