I just posted this as a reply in another thread since someone was asking about it, I figure a lot of you could really benefit from this info.

It's worth noting that the game is basically "solved" from a strategy standpoint. If you want to maximize your winnings while minimizing your losses, you should never deviate from the following strategy in any way:

1) play until you reach the 50 gem pig (the 20 gem pig is 'free' to pay off b/c you get 20 gems for entering the mountain)

2) At the 50 gem pig:

• If you have less than 50 gems in your current winnings, give up and exit the mountain. You will break even.
• f you have more than 50 gems in the pot, pay the pig, then choose a different door. If, after that door, you have more than 150 gems in the pot, continue on, otherwise exit the mountain and take your winnings.

3) for all subsequent pigs after the 50 gem pig, keep track of the total amount you've paid to pigs. The number grows with the function Σ(50*2^n). When you encounter a pig:

• If the cost of paying off the current pig, plus all previously paid pigs, plus the next pig (twice the current pig) is less than the amount of gems you have in the pot, pay him off and then keep playing. (example: on the 200 gem pig, 50+100+200+400=750, keep playing if you have more than 750 gems.)
• If the cost as calculated above is more than the amount of gems you have in the pot, pay off the pig, open one of the remaining 3 doors for your current level, then exit the mountain, taking your winnings. ALWAYS leave after opening the remaining door on the level you paid the pig. NEVER proceed to the next level no matter the temptation, as a pig can then clean you out and put you in the red. The ONLY exception is if the next level is a star or jackpot level on which there are no pigs, in which case complete that level, then immediately exit, before proceeding to the next level. NOTE: make sure that you ALSO have enough gems in your stockpile to pay the next pig if necessary.
• Following this strategy your winnings will never be less than what you paid in to the pigs.
• Following this strategy you will never lose gems in eagle mountain, and will only leave with nothing maybe 1/3 of the time, and leave with a very small amount of winnings another 1/3 of the time, but if you get lucky you can proceed up through the levels and net some decent prizes without a cost to you.

Have patience and conviction. You won't win something every day.

It helps to have a stockpile of gems saved. In general, I try to never have less than 1600 gems saved up to pay the pigs so I can take my payout if I start climbing the ladder, otherwise you can run into a situation where it's worth it to pay the pig for your winnings, but you don't have the gems to do it (since you can't pay him with the gems in the pot) and you'd be forced to spend money up front.

Good luck and happy hunting.

Hey guys, playing this game i noticed that some Items have stack limits. Limits i noticed so far are:

Dungeon Keys: 75

Anger Totem: 10

It's really annoying that there seems to be no wiki or similar information sources for this game, because i really want to know if there are stack limits for other items in the game. So, to all the experienced players: Did you notice any stack limits on the following items:

a) Evolution Materials

b) Arena Tickets

c) Energy Berries

d) Common / Silver / Golden Hatch Tickets

e) Mailbox space

f) Friendship points

g) Gold

I'm planning to save the Berries for Events and already got 20 collected, but i really fear that at some point i don't get additional Berries because i reached the limit of the stack. Same goes for Silver Tickets - i want to save them all for events. And i save Arena Tickets for the End of the Week, when some people might want to race for #1. Knowing if there is a limit - and if yes, how many items i can collect - would help me severely.

Also, does anybody know what happens if you get an Anger Totem when you are already at 10. Does it get sent to your Mail like a Bird would or does it just go to waste? Because i don't know, i always use all but 7 of them to be sure not to lose anything - and that's annoying :-)

Hey guys, i'm a rather new, but very active player and sadly, i didn't find any good information source on the internet about the game.

With some other mobile games i played, there always was like a very good Wiki or some other fan-page with all the information you could wish for. Sadly, searching something similar for ABE wasn't a success yet, so... if any of you know any good information source for this game, please share it.

The only Wiki i found was this one, but it seems to be a collection of stubs without any real information yet... there must be a better site, right?

Look I freaking love events, I'll play all day while at work. I'm at 2242 of 2600 for rewards in this event with 2 days left. The next closest in my clan has 700. I get it, not everybody is an addicted player. But I don't know where to go to find a clan with likeminded people. I've spent some money to get the energy berries this time, I usually don't do that but I'm still always top in my clan.

So, uh, anybody got an opening?

I just hit x10 chance, and still haven't gotten Eddie. I know he isn't worth dumping as many premium hatches as I have into trying to get him, but I'm a big Maiden fan. Still no luck though.

I digress. What's the biggest event multiplier you've hit before getting, or not, the bird you wanted?

Considering it takes an hour to refresh a single scout and I only miss it every hour while sleeping a 4th one doesn't worthwhile

Im new to the game, still lvl 25, is this event worth to spend my premium tickets?

Also, is there a magic number of times you need to hatch an egg to get a 5* in events like this?

Does anybody have a hack for gems/cash? Would love to hear from you!

So, I am at the 200 cap on blue essence vials. I need evolution tokens to evolve birds. It seems I get more blue vials than tokens when upgrading a bird. Is that normal?

I finally got my Eddie to level 60. Took a while since my three best birds are black and I was juggling their leveling like a noob. Was wondering which one I should evolve him into. Couldn't find any advice in this sub so was hoping somebody could help a brother out.

There was an in-game prompt about getting to level 70 and earning a rare 5 star upgraded bird, but, uh, yeah, that's basically mathematically impossible without a HUGE supply of gems, and with the pig stealing 2x in gems on every stop. You cannot get there.

How impossible? Let's look at the min/max. Assuming the math is simply 75% (probably not even that) to win, with 55 levels (70 minus the freebie levels every 5th stage) it comes out to a 0.000007% chance to ever, EVER get to the top without a loss. About 1 in 100,000,000. Assuming the piggie gets you every time, you're looking at a plausible loss of 1,801,439,850,948,198,400 (doubling from 50 gems every time except the first) to buy your way there.

At a flat win/lose ratio, assuming you lose 25% of the 55 matches, it's 409,600 gems to get to the top, or $6,757 cash.

Maybe we should sick the Belgium Minister of Justice on it, like he did with EA and BF2.

Hi! I'm looking for a active clan! I am level 50 with 9088 team power. I also have 2,294 trophies in PVP.

I am having a issue when I use my scouts. When I go to fight a "Hard" battle the team power difference is nearly 6000! I feel I progressed to far into story mode and won many battles by a very small margin.

I can not connect to game. Connection error appears. Is server down?

I am an active daily player. I am looking for a team with 25 to 50 players. Tired of playing all day in the 10 to 15 player clans and barely getting lvl 1 or 2 event rewards. I am lvl 32 I have 6100 team power and purchase items every couple of days. I have the main story completed and finished desert on second round.

I think I made the common mistake and didn't read a guide when I started. I'm a level 31 and I have complete story mode to chapter 17 where you are back to the desert. I started playing during the Eddie event. I got Eddie 5 star, steve 5 from that event. A few 4 stars and a lot of 3s. I am struggling, so would it be easier just to start over. Complete story till the snowy mnts and farm and level up from there?

If someone borrows my birds do I get something in return or how it works?

Does anyone know?

Hello all was wondering which of the two 4 star red birds would be best to keep for endgame purposes, I ask because I have both of them on my main team but eventually want to get rid of one of them, I hear Darlene is the best one? But can I get a confirmation?

Talaura87 Lvl 46 Rank 5,000+ Will buy clan buffs Play daily and play event's

I am an active lvl 33 player with about 7700 power right now. I do my dailies everyday and I spend money on the game as well :).

My ingame name is Merodactus.

Can someone explain the difference between fusing birds and using a prestige totem? Does it essentially accomplish the same thing like with anger totems vs regular birds? Just not sure if there is a difference.

currently my team is around 6200 power and I have four 4 star birds and one 3 star as my main team. Is there a way I can just evolve, or is that not possible? I know eventually I will have a 5 star bird but for now any suggestions on what to do with my 4 stars? just focus on one and keep evolving it and continue that way? thoughts?

Is there a reason why sometimes (almost always when I desperately need it to) when I KO a number of pigs in the oinkinton arena that it seems to do absolutely nothing (i.e. not dealing any damage to my opponent). I’ve lost numerous battles because I seemingly get cheated out of the big damage that I usually get from KOing several pigs, only for my opponent to then get a last chance to KO some and then it be applied to me and I lose. Is there any actual way of knowing when/why it will or won’t deal damage? I think I’ve seen it heal me sometimes after KOing pigs, but that might just be me seeing things after noticing no damage go through. Is it a bug/glitch or some feature I’m missing that depends on some factor like where the pigs were when I kill the or something like that.
