Yup, it's Chuck..
This is a very costly adventure for the rewards, some of the blocks are tough to pull off to save on troop loss, some easier, the loss of 300+ cav on the metal tooth camps is a real pain too, tough adventure strange it is for only 2 player ...
Because this adventure isn't worth much (50 coin if that) I decided to try an experience only run. I took out camps a2, a4, b1, b3s, d3s and d6s.
I lost around 214 recruits and gained 3880 experience. About 18 experience per recruit loss.
I know it's not amazing and there is no loot involved, but it's better than letting the adventure rot in my star menu.
When I add method2 blocks and the veteran, I get it down to max 2142R, 85B, 220C losses
Haven't tested the blocks yet ... will probably do that on the test server.
Troops in the last camp
gotta admit seems like a waste for the work put in to it
Is this guide obsolete now with the changes in pathing and blocking?
May your day be filled with song, beauty, and serenity.
Any luck with your investigations yet? I'm trying to do the same, albeit on the European server, using veterans and whatever elite soldier and xbow I have by now, but I'd be happy to see what you have and perhaps test or see if I have alternatives.
