I block all the time and I know how to set it all up. But 100 people is a bit of a stretch as I'm not sure that that many are really using these forums. A quality guide, in English, is definitely needed.
If you want help with it, just mail me in game and we can divide the work load.
Saraphynn, Sanii has guides for most of the adv and he includes blocking. Seems way more difficult than it actually is.Quote:
I am trying to learn blocking and would love a guide

Hi Starfire, yes I've come to that conclusion as well. Between the "yes" votes in here and those who've privately contacted me, I believe a quality guide is actually desired as well. I've had offers from a few others to help with this too and am formulating my approach to it all this week. Just a busy work week.Quote:

Having said that, no guide can account for the unpredictable effects of the lag, which pretty much makes coop blocking near impossible. Often times what I'm seeing on my monitor is not the same as what my co-adventurer is seeing. Would love a fix for that.. :)
bluebody, the main prob with asking for any fix involving blocking is what i believe is BB's opinion of blocking. this is all conclusions i've reached based on what i've read here and there. reality is, when the game was created, blocking was not an intended part of it. it has evolved into what i've heard called an 'undocumented feature'. from what i've read here and there, i believe BB neither condones nor condemns blocking. i think, technically, it is a glitch that you do not lose any troops on an advanced block, but a sizeable portion of the player base does it and has spoken up in defense of it, so BB has decided to allow it. i do not believe allowing it will result in any attempt to make it easier to do
again keep in mind this is all conclusions i've reached on my own, and not straight from the horses mouth, so to say. all that being said, i do block, i enjoy blocking. i do not block simply to save troops, i do blocking because it adds an extra element of strategy and risk to the game, and to me makes doing adventures more enjoyable.
Thank you, Sanii, for all you do the keep the game moving !!
w/o blocking most of the adventures would be extremely tedious/boring
I never block... I am block impaired lol............ But with that being said I think a tutorial would be awesome.. It would help alot of people........... and yes possibly even me lol
Sanii this is a awesome idea. I just recently used your outlaws guide with block lol near had a heart attack on one of the blocks but it worked perfectly. Today I used your guide for surprize attack. Loved it I really liked how you explained the advanced block with the times. It truely shows how they work. I have tried some of genesis guides blocking but my timing must have been off a bit and lost alot of troops. I never tried blocking again for months till this week. Your guides have truely help me in the game. I am all for comprehensive tutorial. Great work you are a inspiration to this game that well most of us love and dedicate alot of time too. Thank you very much in advance for all your hard work, I speak for myself and I am sure others will agree. I appreciate the effort that yourself and all the others that have put out guides I know without them I would have given up and moved on to another less enjoyable game. Thank you again Sanii for all your great work and help.
Great idea sanii. I never used to block, tried a failed retrried nd failed lol. Happy note used your surprise attack guide and with your times for the advanced blocks AWESOME made it all make sense, did have to wait till gen gets here or wait 7 second then launch attack. I think a tutorail for blocking is a must. Please do it. And big thank you from me lol. I have pasted on all your guides to anyone who wnted to try blocking and have been able to convince a few of my fellow guildies to try your guides and follow them watch the VERY helpful videos. Great job sanii thank you.
