Arena based tutorial? https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=42207.msg524893#msg524893
« on: July 24, 2012, 06:00:23 am »
I'm thinking of the possibility of a tutorial using mostly arena to grind out electra, cards, and the like. The inspiration came from a post in the community decks discussion, which I'm too lazy to fish out.

So far, the idea is to grind out electra with silver, then grind for rares with bronze. After that, should the tutorial direct the follower to silver, gold, or plat?
My 3 game-modification principles:
1. If it ain't broke, don't wreck it.
2. Simple fixes for simple problems.
3. Remember to fill in the holes.

My suggestion: Bronze (6*SoR) --> Silver( :electrum) --> FG(with instosis; upped cards) --> Gold(mummy grinder; end-game  :electrum/score/rare grinding)
As for the "mummy grinder", this is the version I'm using:
Hover over cards for details, click for permalink
Deck import code : [Select]
4vj 4vj 4vj 4vj 4vj 4vj 6rq 6rq 6rq 6rq 6rq 6rq 6s2 6s2 710 710 71d 71d 71d 71d 71d 72i 72i 72i 7gq 7q4 7q4 7q4 7q4 7tb 8pl


SoFos can be replaced by an explosion and a fog. Not best, but usable.
PVE shouldn't be all about copying a deck code and converting time into electrum, score, and potentially rares.
If the only way to derive fun from a game is its PVP content, then non-hardcore players a.k.a. the mass are alienated from the hardcore community.

Arena is probably the best place to get rares/money. After one gets familiar with AI3, arena is the place you should spend most of your time.

Indeed. Especially when the same grabbow/immorush can be used in both AI3 and arena bronze/silver.

Something like this is great for squeezing :electrum out of Silver:
Hover over cards for details, click for permalink
Deck import code : [Select]
4vh 4vj 4vj 4vj 4vj 52q 55q 55q 5f6 5f9 5f9 5f9 5f9 5f9 5f9 5fa 5fa 5fa 5fa 5fa 5if 5if 5l9 5l9 5l9 5l9 5l9 5l9 5og 5rr 8pm

It gains over 1000 :electrum per hour more than grinding AI3 with a 90% winrate.

Your idea sounds nice. :D
Beware the Darkness.
