Titan Throne - Strongest Lord Event

How to maximise points and get in the top 100



Strongest Lord Event is in three phases:
  1. Building strength - most points come from building upgrades
  2. Resource gathering - you can get high points without annoying other teams
  3. Killing enemies - attack or defend - you get points either way
If you want to protect your resources and troops, keep your shields up at all times. City and mine shields are best, but if you can only do one, choose city shields.

BEFORE the event starts:
  1. Save up all your speed ups for building, recruitment, enhancements, tech research, healing - you will need these in large numbers so don't use them until during the event. 
  2. If you have stamina items, save these too so you have spare killing ability in the Kill Monsters phase. 
  3. Also worth saving up alliance reward points so that you can get recruits out of Valhalla.
  4. Start saving up resources so you can build something big for the event. You will need to protect yourself with shields to avoid losing your stash.
  5. Start a building upgrade several days before the event starts so that it will complete just after the event starts. This will then leave you time to upgrade a second building during the build phase.
  6. Set troops building before the event starts so that they complete immediately after the event starts. This gives you extra troop building point opportunities. 
  7. Set an enhancement running on the highest level troop you can manage, before the event starts so that this completes just after the event starts, this gives you time to complete a second enhancement during the building strength phase.
  8. Set tech research running before the event starts so that it finishes just after the event starts, then you have more time for more tech research points. 
  9. Keep building and enhancing troops as fast as you can. If you have limited numbers of speed ups, use them on the high value troops.

During the Resource Gathering/Kill Monsters Phase:

 Resource Gathering
  1. Send marches to the elite mines before it switches to the resource gathering phase, and time it so that they finish gathering resources just after the event switches to resource gathering phase and boom, instant point boost into the top 10 (unless everyone learns this trick).
  2. Don't bother gathering from the gold mine, you won't get any points. 
  3. Make sure you empty your mines regularly - other teams will be eyeing up mines that are full that they can raid.
  4. Use all your elite mine time.
  5. Empty your mines just before the phase closes to maximise points. 
Monster Killing
  1. Kill the highest level monsters you can with every attack. If you have stamina in your pack, use this during this phase to get extra monster killing opportunities.
  2. To get higher level monster, use the +3 attack, +3 defense, +10% leadership boosts. You can often find these in the alliance benefits area.
  3. If you can't kill a particular level monster on auto play, try manually driving the spell attacks. Also, try a different monster of the same level. 
  4. Look for the special event mutant monsters and try to kill those.
  5. Beasts don't seem to count, but they also won't use up your stamina, so you can continue hitting them for the goodies they drop.
  6. KEEP SHIELDS UP and keep clearing your mines.

Battle phase - KILL, KILL, KILL - ahem.. 

Defence:
  1. You can get a lot of points defending other players' cities. If you do this, you can leave your shields up and no-one can attack you.
  2. If defending, be aware that you will lose a large number of troops. 
  3. It is best to run defense whilst you are online and able to keep healing in the hospital so that you don't lose too many troops. 
Attack:
  1. Save up teleports that take you to a particular point, not a random point. You need at least two.
  2. Before the event starts, find some targets and bookmark them. 
  3. During this phase of the event, teleport next to your target and hammer the hell out of them before they can get reinforcements. 
  4. Teleport away before they can retaliate. 
  5. Put up a shield before they can retaliate.
General:

  1. You will need lots of healing speed ups, so hopefully you have been saving them. Most defense battles against a big enemy will land you with 1d heal time in the hospital. 
  2. Check for recruits in Valhalla if your alliance has this, and get them out. You will need to have saved up your alliance points to do this.

Autism Acceptance Month 2024: Neurodivergence in the workplace

-

It's amazing how quickly April comes around each year when you're AuDHD and have a fleeting grasp on time, but here it is, April again, and time for Autism Acceptance Month .   Something I'm quite passionate about since being diagnosed, is making work a less stressful place for those of us who are neurodivergent. I do this through being open about my diagnosis and by giving presentations to help others understand  what  neurodivergence is. April is a great time to do this and my employer, Envato , actively encourages creating a more inclusive workplace. Yesterday I ran a presentation at work to a large group of folks who were interested in finding out what neurodiversity is, the impacts, and how we can help make the workplace a safer and more inclusive space.  The presentation is freely  available in my Google Drive  if anyone wants to download it and adapt for their own use. How does an AuDHD person, ak...

What is a geek?

-
Someone raised an interesting point on Monday night at a GGD dinner and I feel they have missed the entire point of Girl Geek Dinners and have also, with their comments, seriously undermined other women who are looking to come out of their shell and interact with other 'geeks'. If you don't agree with what we're doing then don't come to a Girl GEEK dinner, and certainly don't turn up and throw cold water on people, make belittling comments and then moan that it was too technical and you didn't enjoy it. So what is a geek? There seemed to be some confusion. These women throwing around the derogatory comments seem especially confused. So let's refresh everyones' minds. You don't need to be in IT to be a geek folks! It's not an exclusive club limited to women who don't baulk at the thought of writing code. We're a diverse crowd and we celebrate each others geekiness, even if it isn't something we're into. We certainly ...

The state of NZ internet

-

Following a couple of tweets earlier today stating that our Internet in NZ is somewhat better than we folk who complain think it is, I decided to do a bit of my own research.    I've found in the past that many 'facts' stated in newspapers are outrageously wrong as journalists have a tendency to misread or misrepresent data in order to create a good headline, this means I like to dig around and find out facts for myself as basically I don't trust journalists as far as I can throw them. So, what was it that got my blood boiling this morning?  Someone stating that 80% of NZ internet users get speeds greater than 10Mbps.  What a load of tosh!   Yes, the capability may exist and the telecoms may tell us that they're providing these speeds, but we're certainly not getting these speeds.   I decided to dig further and use an Internationally recognized set of stats to find out the truth... you too can find out stats for yourself right here:   http://www...
