How do you spend your time in Elements? https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=26768.msg340195#msg340195
« on: May 25, 2011, 03:26:17 pm »
After getting back into the game, there seems like a lot more stuff to do than when I first started playing.  Lots more activity on the forums, different challenges for single play.  Un-upped PvP (fun!) option.  :)  I'm curious how you all spend your time in Elements now.  For me, it goes something like this:

1)  Grind my score back up above 15K in AI3.
2)  Play some FGs until I get enough upped cards to replace/sell to upgrade another card in my USEM deck for AI3 grinding (althought it works very well at about 75% upped).
3)  Switch to some random deck I've created to goof around in PvP1
4)  Wonder what it must look like to someone coming into PvP1 with a score of a couple of hundred, when they see my score pop up and how much they can win if they beat me.
5)  Further wonder what it must look like to them when I play a deck with no pillars or weapons and still beat them.
6)  Lose all the score I gained from step 1 in PvP1 trying to make my flying discord or cat/soul catcher decks work.
7)  Browse the forums for deck ideas and to get a feel for the different kinds of contests that are around (still don't understad War).  :)
8)  Notice that my boss has been lurking over my shoulder for the past 30 minutes and decide it might be a good idea to log off and pretend to get some work done.
9)  Rinse and repeat.

1. Spin oracle, don't get a nymph. Check which FG is predicted.
2. Check wiki for FG's deck and try to build a counter deck (preferably different than my last counter vs that FG). Play that FG.
3. Switch to FG farmer till I win at least one card.
4. Plot my next move in WoE Alpha.
5. Check in on War. Monitor chat for War matches. Test War decks.
6. Make a "fun" deck and play against AI3-5. If it bombs switch to TADABow to make up score.
7. Check on ddevans' Elemental Adventure thread.
8. Same as OP.

Before : Mindlessly grind false gods. Pretty amazing that I still have a decent score.
Now: Mindlessly grind level 3. Trying to rack up score.
Goal: To get into Top50 on fridays :P (loooong way to go)

1)  View updated topics.
 1.1)  If blessed by a random PM pop up window, check PMs.
 1.2)  Respond to PMs immediately.
2)  Go through each forum section and read unread topics, skipping over those that I don't care about.
3)  Start reading important topics, then get distracted and load chat.
4)  Refocus and respond to super important topics.
 4.1)  Super-secret Deck Helper stuff.
 4.2)  Super-secret Council stuff.
 4.2)  Super-secret War stuff.
 4.3)  Other less awesome stuff.
5)  Finally load Elements:  Visit the Oracle, become disappointed at there being no Nymph again, then rage at the low electrum amount, the mediocre pet received, and receiving Graviton as my next FG for the 400000000000th time.
6)  Lose to Graviton with the counter deck, then start grinding like mad to release my rage.
7)  Stalk chat, smite spammers, watch Higs annoy people.
8)  Stalk the forums for the rest of the day.

1. Spin Oracle. No nymph, ignore fortune, pet, next FG, etc. in annoyance.
2. Randomly choose between FG and AI3 farming without checking the deck.
 2.1If it was the wrong deck, switch opponents.
3. Get bored, switch decks and opponents.
4. Get bored of that, play T50 a bit to check for farms.
5. Get bored of everything on my account, go to trainer and make a fail FG deck.
6. Test it on AI5 and tweak a bit.
7. Get bored of elements altogether, play transformice.
8. Get bored of transformice, check the forums.
