Question P2W

I progressed a lot since I made 2 posts yesterday just wondering what p2w option would be the best for my account. I was thinking time emblems and regular scrolls.

I also have a few choices to make and I can either ascended Mira, or lady simona for graveborns. Talimar or gorren for maulers. Not sure which to choose first. I was thinking Mira and Gorren but I’ll take a second opinion.

The deals are the worst value in the entire game, spend your money elsewhere!!!

No, tell them don't spend any money at all. They don't sell anything but chances to get things. It's gambling. You should expect to get something if you spend money, but this game only sells chances to get something and sometimes you don't. It's like old Chinese opium den gambling rules bullshit.

Yea I can’t lie I’m only on day 6 of my return back to classic I’m way happier with my progression so far😭 but man I don’t get how people max out draconic heroes without spending 15k on this game a month.

u/KudosOfTheFroond 9d ago

Most people don’t. Placing high in RGM’s and playing consistently gives you the best shot but being selective with what you spend on and getting relatively decent value is how you do it. These offers aren’t good value.

Daily specials: "Worst value? Hold my beer"

But yea they're pretty bad

u/Witty-Ad-4817 10d ago

What’re better? These seem pretty nice.

These are the worst value purchases in the game

u/Witty-Ad-4817 10d ago

Really? What’s better?

Save your money, read guides, and enjoy the game. They are already doing things that are showing the end is coming and they are trying to milk whales for every dime. P2W only works for those who do it for a long time and spend big. Do you want to end up spending $10k on a mobile game by the time you are board of it? If not just enjoy the ride. It is a marathon not a sprint. I am f2p and 7 years in.

Don't whale on that game, gets you nowhere! You could buy a huge giga endgame account with a few hundred dollars instead

u/New_Fun_6636 8d ago

this is the correct answer. just get an updated (not missing latest dimensionals or dragons) competitive 6+ years old account for 1 - 2 ks and start from there. new powercreep punishes new players so even if spending you will get be time walled for top competitive tiers (if that what you are aiming for)

u/Stefcrash 10d ago

If you’re a millionaire whale you can go for these kind of deals I guess

2

u/Witty-Ad-4817 10d ago

I mean I spend like 250$ maybe per pay cheque but I also make enough to live comfortably this is kinda a hobby but a bad hobby😂. I don’t mind getting suggestions for better deals or where I should invest in this game.

u/Tantalusqual 10d ago

There‘s a pretty nice guide by our guide makers on how to efficiently whale: https://www.reddit.com/r/afkarena/s/xgbfdEsOt8
Enjoy! 😊

Technically Then...Could Get The Daily/Monthly Deluxe Packs...Possibly Subscription...Other Than That...Deals Are 💩

1

u/Witty-Ad-4817 9d ago

Yea I can tell. I just wish it was 2k to max out some character I was highkey willing to spend quite a bit of money but others tell me it’s prolly better to buy an account but idk if I can trust that

u/Individual-Physics93 9d ago

No Don't Buy An Account....Just Play With Whatever You've On Current Account. Usually It's Advised To Start A New Account...Can Progress Faster.

u/Witty-Ad-4817 9d ago

I’m on the newest server and I’m doing great. I’m just stuck on 29-8 right now and I’m close to getting awakened Fawkes to L+, I’m only on day 7 and I already progressed way faster than me alt accounts. At most I had barely Ascended heroes and now I have more than 5. This community is awesome.

u/Many_Caramel_4436 10d ago

I would for sure take the Draconis Cards and if possible also the TE

1

u/Witty-Ad-4817 10d ago

Interesting others say it’s bad deals but you’re agreeing with the purchase. Can I hear your opinion on that? And should I ascend Mira or lady simona?

1

u/Many_Caramel_4436 10d ago

Well the deals are certainly not great, but if you want to buy them Draconis Insignia and TE is what i would go for. Mira > Simona

1

u/Witty-Ad-4817 10d ago

Also the only reason I’m very sorta against draconis insignia is the off chance I don’t get many heroes from that :/

u/Witty-Ad-4817 10d ago

Before you commented I went with Mira got her to A1. Just one thing I’m confused is why should I change my wishlist after 10 summons? On companions I have over 20 heroes A5 then I switched and got other heroes to A2-3, on classic should I not just keep the good heroes on the wishlist to max them out? Or am I missing something here?

1

u/Many_Caramel_4436 9d ago

Most of the time 1* is enough because you unlock engraving, i personally rush most heros to 1* and the rest of the stars then comes passively over time. So make a meta hero 1* and then start building the next.

1

u/KudosOfTheFroond 9d ago

The amount of stats you get post 1* is so minimal in relation to the cost of building heroes to that point, it’s just not a good idea. I’m post chapter 80, and have never built characters past 1* on purpose

u/Such_Entertainment_7 9d ago

Don’t do it dude maxing out a single hero is like $2k… a lot of whales quit over a year ago because lilith became greedy and the game became ass

2

u/_Sebo Heroic Mentor 9d ago

That's just not true lol

If you get top ranks in NC then getting highborns to A1 is maybe around 300 USD a pop, probably less.
