Readymade

Hi,
I'd like to share a strategy to farm coins by playing The Guns of Lyr on expert difficulty with a friend which is more fun and more profitable than playing rPvE plus you get some experience for your profile to look cool and get High Lord rank (10) to be able to upgrade ultra rare cards to tier 3 with gold. Since we don't have 2 more friends playing BattleForge as much as we do, we felt it would be easier to find a scenario we can play with only 2 players rather than looking for 2 more everytime to play Bad Harvest, explaining what to take in the deck and what to do in-game to finish quickly, furthermore there's no time wasted in-between games when lobbies crash or it doesnt load up the game. Few people in-game have requested some help with the map so I decided to make a post on the forum. We managed to beat the map in 16:25 with quite expensive decks but the way of playing leaves some room for mistakes and doesn't require all the charges we used. The map itself grants many ultra rare upgrades so after few finishes when you get most of them in case you get them again you'll get gold instead, which results in getting 9000-14000 per player for finishing the map. I've included the replay and the rewards in the post.
To watch the replay put the file in Documents\BattleForge\replays, go to your in-game profile and replays tab.
If someone can tweak our version of this to do it more efficiently or quicker let me know. Also if requested we could try to finish the map without charges or some of the more expensive cards.

Hello everyone,
I just had the pleasure to complete some maps and get some boosters via archivements and the daily quests. And i came to the point, that the economic system in Skylords Reborn will crash really fast with that many booster and possibilities to get rare and uncommon cards so fast. Maybe you should think about the following changes in future, as soon as the server runs and you got time for stuff like that:
 
- More quests that will reward you with special cards or even with the normal commons - it is hard to get even normal common cards
- enable the mini booster again so that people can get more commons/uncommons faster and build up their decks
- enable the tokens to buy upgrades instead of gold. I've finished some lvl 5 PVE Maps and got 1250 Gold from every map - so i can upgrade almost 8-10 cards to level 1 by simply finish one map with a noob deck. Thats too easy. With tokens I've spend hours on grinding them to upgrade my cards and there is no reason for me to complete normale campaign maps to gain my upgrades
- instead of upgrade cards you should maybe think about deck cards which can be looted on normal maps with a small chance

I think that everyone will own a full upgraded deck within some weeks, once the server is running with a massive amount of rares and just upgrade lvl 3 cards. It's not a challenge anymore to gain your upgrades because of the massive amount of gold everyone can earn with pve maps.

What are your thought folks? Let me know!






Thx again to the devs and I know that we are still in a really early phase of the game and the dev and that we got some other problems atm which are more important but we should not forget about stuff like I've mentioned above
 

Note: The current rewards are not final. And it has not been decided yet what they will become.

Isnt the gold gain increased for testing purposes? Should clear that first, because Threads like this might come up every day. Right now its kina useless to speculate because the Beta isnt over and you do not have any fixed numbers to do your Magic with.

So I am taking a short break from studying now, your post will be a great distraction.  

I generally agree that it shouldn't be too easy to earn card upgrades and being spammed with rares will kind of take the thrill out of the AH imo.
Yet you should consider that we will lose our cards from time to time due to server updates - so right now I think it's a great way to take the edge off, how frustrating would it be grinding for weeks to just start from zero the other day?

Furthermore I think it should be possible to earn the card upgrades not only by doing rPVE or only by completing campaign missions, just like the players have different preferences, the looting system should be just as flexible.

Back to the idea of earning cards by missions - these cards wouldn't be worth as much in AH anymore and idk wether I like the idea or not. It could also affect their rareness: if you could earn a rare card just by completing a mission it would technically become a common card - like moon, wasn't it a legendary card even?

I am absolutely pro mini booster packs, especially if it is that easy to get rares atm.

Btw: Do you use a strong Internet connection? I was figuring maybe some people (like me) won't get into the game because of a low data rate.

Actually I would be interested too. 

Im wondering about the architecture of the servers. 
Actually today it is quite easy to setup some servers in the cloud, including auto-scaling options and automation of rollouts.
I cant imagine that the BF Server is so complicated to run. (Im sure it is complicated to develop - Thanks again to Skylord Devs!)

If you need some experienced Infrastructure/Cloud Engineer to help you with Server Operations, feel free to contact me guys...

Best Regards,
Leon

Does anyone know on which server skylords is currently running, how many ppl. can be logged in at the same time and how much the operating costs are? Also i would like to know what kind of server we probably need to run this project smooth and for ~3000 ppl at the same time. 
 
Don't get me wrong with this post - i don't want to complain or whinge - I just want to get some more hard data 

I demand the downvote reaction back now.   
 

I have a strong feeling that this isn't the real FarRockBF from YouTube, there's no way he would act like that about this game and not have the common sense the understand what a stress test is. Probably a troll trying to give the real FarRockBF a bad name.

Just wanted to make a topic and tell all you devs that are behind this, that you are amazing! Even tho there are some problems right now with server issues and so, i won't complain afterall its a stress test!. I just can't wait to see what happens in the future. I was so nostalgic when i got into the forge and messed around with the cards and open the 2 boosters. I got to play 1 game and its just as good as i remember.
I know my account here is new but i have been following you guys for a long time on other sites! So keep up the amazing work, you should be proud! can't wait for the more stable versions but i will still try now and report bugs and help you guys.
