[Adventure Guides] by Starfire

[Starfire512]

Revised 2-29-11 to include better links to the high resolution pictures, to add awards tables, and to clean up a few adventures according to player suggestions. In particular, Dark Priests got quite a bit better


--This series of guides are for those who are a bit higher level and have access to Soldiers and Longbows. With access to Soldiers and Longbows, there is little reason to use Bowmen and Militia and these guides will reflect that. They also focus on absolutely minimizing losses to everything but recruits. All battles have been simulated with German Combat Sim to 500 battles in order to get the correct range of losses.

--While basic positioning is available, it will be assumed that you know how to avoid some enemy camps (notated with "--- skip"). Newer guides don't even bother to reference skipped camps since it just clutters the guide.
--these guides are intended to be Compact guides With limited lines.
--Abbreviations will be heavily used.
Exp = Experience Adventure, RES = Resource, G = Epic
R = Recruit, S = Soldiers, C = Calvary, LB = Longbow, A = Crossbow, B = Bowman, M = Militia

It's simply fantastic all the work you've done on these! My favorite information is the XP gained per loss, will help people level up efficiently and determine which adventures are worth more than others, which ones to sell and which to save.

[Wallstreet]

indeed, nice work but you must also factor not all advens are designed for experience like pirates for example which is great for loot drop and attaining exotic logs and/or granite. There are 3 adven types atm, experience based, reward based, and epic. Another factor is finding more efficient ways to do advens with less loss. My guild has made several guides and some are way more efficient than some of the current german guides even.

Did he post these anywhere on the forums? Always cool to look at new guides.

Your Link to The Nords guide is broken sir. Just an fyi. I'd really like to see how you do it with so few losses. Appreciate the other guides, btw.

Great Guides, If not already added I will add them to the CEO Guide List

heh, I should sell that Guide for a Nord's Adventure. Its not quite done and I wanted to verify a few things to see if I can do it better but I don't yet have another of that Adventure. But the 33 rating is so significantly different than anything else, that I need to double check everything.

That's probably pretty accurate Starfire. I optimized as much as I could using xbowmen and there aren't very many losses at all (total 550-600) which includes bowmen/militia/recruits. Goes to show why it's so expensive to obtain from others.

Any comment on the new colors in the 2nd post. I will be gone over the weekend but after I get back, I can apply them quickly to the other guides.
