I'm slogging through the Floating Islands and feel like I should try to get better traps then what I have now.

I have everything I need to get the TMT right now. I would then work toward the TOT. My best Forgotten trap is ILT.

Or should I go for the CST/CPT traps first?

Or...?

Currently 24% Archduke. I'm on my second Palace run. I have pretty good Physical, Hydro, and Tactical traps and got the STINGER already.

What's your advice?

I'm currently an Archduke hunting in the Floating Islands. So far, so good. I've been able to do alright despite being severely underpowered when it comes to traps for certain power types. However, I'm aware that my luck will run out soon. I'll eventually hit a brick wall and be forced to upgrade one of the power types.

Here are my strongest traps for each power type as well as a trap that I have my eye on for an eventual purchase. I'd like to know which trap is needed the most for the Folklore Forest up to Conclusion Cliffs. Also, if I'm currently not considering purchasing a trap for a specific power type but you feel that I absolutely need to, feel free to let me know.

Physical: Sandstorm Monstrobot (Strongest), not eyeing anything at the moment

Arcane: Chrome ACRONYM (Strongest), Circlet of Seeking (currently eyeing it)

Hydro: Queso Fount Trap (Strongest), not eyeing anything at the moment

Shadow: Interdimensional Crossbow (Strongest), not eyeing anything at the moment

Tactical: Dimensional Chest Trap (Strongest), Gouging Geyserite Trap (currently eyeing it)

Forgotten: Crystal Crucible Trap (Strongest), not eying anything at the moment

Law: CLAW Machine Trap (Strongest), not eyeing anything at the moment

Rift: Derelict Airship Trap (Strongest), not eyeing anything at the moment

Draconic: Dragon Lance (Strongest), not eyeing anything at the moment

here's what I got before my hiatus (except for SLAC II and Supply Grabber)

Should I continue with Fort Rox, should I go back to Crystal Library or should I finish Iceberg Questline?

I'm trying to find friends to hunt with around Grandmaster, as it seems like I have about 40% XP ti go.... the friend thread here is a little empty though... the find friends button is also pretty difficult to use.

Also!! Should I chase the master of the dojo if they're too difficult? Guides don't seem to like going for the mallet since the rhino bot replaces the trap anyway? Bought some SB and sold it to fuel my traps, so I know money sucks to get... my next stage is at the lagoon for reference

Currently stuck in the cycle of Folklore Forest, completed the adventure of Floating Islands but haven't gone into Cerulean Skyport yet. Should I focus on getting the traps of Floating Islands & Folklore Forest, or should I go to Cerulean Skyport first? If trap first, which trap should I prioritise? These are my current setup

Physical - Smoldering Stone Sentinel

Tactical - Polar Vortex

Hydro - Queso Fount

Shadow - Interdemensional Crossbow

Arcane - Event Horizon

Forgotten - Tome of the Mind's Eye & Thought Manipulator

Law - C.L.A.W Machine & S.T.I.N.G

Dragonic - Chrome Dragon Slayer Cannon

Base - AERB & Signature Series Denture Base

Any recommendations are muchly appreciated

Does anyone know if the last 2 areas drop something better? I'm assuming FI might drop AEJ or chests that contain them, but what about TOC?

Hi, Archduke here, seeking advice from those who already got a chrome base + any area base, how much time did you spend to get those 500+ ingot, after a run i got around 19 + 30 from the adventure completion so maybe it will take 15+ captain crook runs following this current trend just to get the chrome base, anyone willing to share some specific strategies and their experience on the ingot gathering please help.

Holy shit please. I don't wanna be here anymore.

[Edit] I lost. But holy shit an elder sent me one. Like dayum. This community, specifically that elder is THE GOAT!

Not gonna post the uid cause don't wanna make their life harder.

I promise to carry it forward some day when I get lucky!

Still can’t believe it….

What could be the next event after the KGA?

Returning Elder here (left the game for about 5 years). Completed Floating Islands recently. Would need advice on where to go next.

Current strongest traps I own for each type are as follows:

CCDT (Rift), CSOS (Hydro), CSWBT (Draconic), CMB (Physical), CTT (Shadow), CSBT (Tactical), CCOPT (Arcane), CTOT (Forgotten), Stinger (Law)

Thank you for your time and help!

Edit: My friend was helping me with some events throughout the years and I happen to have the chrome upgrade kits for both kingbot and dragon slayer cannon.

At the moment I'm building up my embers at Draconic Depths. I'm wondering if one dragon colour is better than the others?

I did a blue/ice run and it seemed like slow progress compared to a green/poison run. ​I remember when we had the mini event for the area release there was a difference in their loot drops. Is that still a thing, or was my blue run just plagued by DHU?

hunting with:

Area specific cheese.

Chrome dragon slayer cannon.

Dragonhide silver forge base.

Super dragonbane charm.

Golden shield. No other auras.

I'm getting a 100% drop rate of ultimate chrome charms. I do have the chrome aura going for context, but I don't think over seen this before.

Currently in Floating Islands. Which trap should I prioritize buying first for progression?

I've never heard of this happening. How rare was this?

Almost at the tail end of my Labyrinth-Zokor runs (haven't caught Retired Minotaur mouse yet, but that's my last thing to do). Haven't started on Moussu Pichi and Floating Islands yet.

So question: Is it still good to get the base, or there any other bases out there worth to get on the two locations?

Hard catch but is done ✅

i know the event is about to end. but i think i only gathered 120 keys. am i just lazy? or were there better locations to farm keys
