Endgame players - energy use?

Curious how y'all are spending your energy. Only Sand Devil and Twins? Dungeons while tournament is active? Dungeons while super raids are active?

I generally only spend energy on something that gives a return  like tourney / cvc with personal / events etc

But  that might explain the 150K+ energy I have / it grows daily

Sand devil, twins, brutal 12.3

Dungeons during CvC and fusion tournaments

Why do you bother with brutal 12.3? You can't possibly need more food?

500 monthly campaign runs 😔

I do the same as trips pretty much, then personals CvCs usually means run all the Hard Spider 10

Oh. For those I do normal 12-3. Less energy use :)

Greenies! I save pennies in the piggy bank, one less sacred used a month or so adds up....and I can do a path/deck event or something

Any insight into the "special" events next Tues and Thursday? Feel free to DM me anything you can't share publicly:)

I feel like some of these have been decent, while others (the cards maybe) total addict bait (not pointing fingers at the entire player base).  I'm in Yolo mode of late, so at least one of these gonna get me. They are more fun than fusions anyway 😆.

what happened to the best shard hoarder I know 😂

sadly I don't know what's coming. Some of the Deck iterations have been good (lunar was solid because it was dungeons + training), but we shall see.

You just bored of fusions, or is it a thing where they're just not useful enough for you to care?

Combination of the two, for me. I mean I do them because they don't take any real effort and also give me an excuse to use shards, but I don't particularly care for them, and can't remember the last one I actually used.

BORED!!!

Ive been both good (33 sacreds currently) and bad (0 void, just used last 3 on NOT a siphi :) and blew most of my ancient wad for a dupe Lonatharil and the guaranteed.... Will yolo whatever I get next 2 days for siphi despite no mercy.  My void luck has been ridiculous.  Recently pulled 2 dupes..... Warlord.... then Nehkret....

Overall, the quality of fusions the last 12 months has been excellent.  But I get "baited" into every single one regardless...

I mostly start with looking at fusions as 30k CvC points, so I definitely understand. 

Looking back in the last year of frags...skipped Jetni, haven't used Supreme Elhain yet, Pythion is a staple for me in PvP, Ukko is obviously S tier, Dreng I use in IG 10 mostly, Bivald is S tier for Hydra, Gaius is good but kind of less useful due to Rat King. 

Traditionals I use Raz, skipped Oella (which I kinda regret now), use Morri for Fae farming, skipped Lonath, actually don't use Heli but that's not really an indictment of his usefulness, I should just slot him into Iron Twins or get him in an Arena build :P

Hmm. Okay, to be fair, given that list - I use Pyth and Gaius for arena, Ukko, Dreng, Bivald, and Raz for Hydra, and Heli for CB. So, roughly half.

was more than I thought as well. figured it'd be closer to 1/3 or so but the last year or so of fusions has been incredibly strong.

Sand Devil and more Sand Devil

Have to roll every piece on my account that could find use in PvP, and that requires a LOT of oil just to try. Then when only about 5% of that comes in with useful rolls, I need more oil to roll all the new stuff I forged to hope for something to come in this time.

I guess after that I am going back to live in the dungeons to get more gear to try and hope for decent ascensions.

I think the correct answer is 100pct of energy in sand devil. Oil for pvp gear only. Which means all artifacts from hydra, dt, forge, clan shop, tag shop, ...  I'm not sure the mythical dungeon gear is better than I'm gonna get elsewhere.  Not with my limited f2p energy. As I farm d10 today 😆

pretty much where I'm getting all my gear from these days and at this point even if I run out of pieces to test, I think I'm just gonna keep farming Sand Devil outside of fusions and CvC

the only dungeon that's just massively tempting me is FK, though I think I'd be farming ~5. my savage has just largely turned into garbage from ascensions. 😢

All we know is Sandman and fusions.  No time for anything else.  Until we inevitably throw away all our bad ascension and start over again.

This is where I am at, getting into the throwing out gear stage.

So over flat stat defense rolls on my Atk% chests and flat stat atk on my HP% chests.

I agree in all the energy going to oil farming. 

The issue is, and my question is, once I'm out of PvP gear to ascend and 90% of it ascended poorly, do I wait another 6-12 months to farm enough Lethal and Stoneskin to try again? Or do I go back into Hard FK and Hard Dungeons and see what I can do for mythic pieces? I think this is the answer for now, until I get enough mats in the forge to make another thousand pieces.

But IDK, maybe it's just oil oil oil oil oil forever and always.

(OFC, we are still counting 6 runs of IT daily and 12 Sundays yes?)

Not even saving it for the chance at Ascension rerolls?  We already have ores and clearly need another currency so I propose Fish, cuz why not.
