    seriously?

    Complete an epic adventure for presents?

    I've never completed an epic adventure and have no intention of doing so. They aren't worth my time let alone the cost. I'm having a hard time thinking why this is a good idea?

    And I can't even cancel this trash.

    Providing a cancel button does seem logical... Than again, you have to factor the % of people who will cancel a quest using it and then come on forums complain about the mistake they made and asking "why" there is such feature.

    You can buy a lootspot - that should cover the quest requirements. But I'm with you, I looked for the delete button on that quest & was bummed that it would be a stopping point for my Christmas event.

    Whatever, so many things get botched up that I'm not even going to bother pointing out to BB that there are lots of ways/paths/reasons to play this game, and leveling up isn't on everyone's agenda.

    Loot Spot.
    I will provide you with a free one if you and I are on together.

    I haven't done one of these before, but I think I will give it a go. Troop losses don't seem much more than I'm used to, though it is pretty complicated. I'm not sure if it's much more complicated than Outlaws, though.

    I use the guides here.
    They offer Quick Loot versions where you only need to beat a certain amount of camps to win.
    They also offer Block/No Block versions. I like since lag makes blocking all but impossible for me.

    I have never done an Epic Adventure and have NO plan to do one now... It should not be part of the xmas Quests! Please delete it from my quest book!! My husband who is lower levels needed to do a Experience quest for the xmas quest and so I helped him do a Stealing from the Rich, which if I am correct is an experience adventure. IT DID NOT COUNT!!. WE did it for nothing. So please explain.... I am not going to risk doing an epic if its not even going to count! A prompt reply from BB would be appreciated!

    The epic adventures are Black Knights, Roaring Bull, Dark Brotherhood, and Secluded Experiments. While doing the last one is not something I would recommend to anyone, the others are not that bad. The first two are still very reasonable adventures even after the change in adventure loot. The short version of Roaring Bull can be done with about 900 recruit losses without excessive risk; and the Black Knights is about the same total troops, depending on the level at which it is done. Dark Brotherhood is normally a cav killer, but can be done very reasonably with waves of MMA general.

    On a general basis, it should be assumed that anyone over 42 is capable of doing an epic adventure, which is when they become available. It is a flaw in the game that advanced players can get well beyond the level where the difficulty of adventures should increase and be able to advance with lower adventures.

    Just completed my first epic adventure to fulfill this. Black Knights. Really not bad at all. Same amount of experience as two Outlaws for about the effort and losses of one, decent loot plus some for a friend. Have another in my star that I'll do.
