Something that's worth keeping in mind when it comes to spending emeralds is also getting them, especially ways without outright buying them, since that helps you budget. For example, Mysterious Islands commonly have a 20k emerald reward somewhere on their map so saving explorer moves to ensure you can get them helps a lot, especially since you can hold off on getting the reward until you actually need it and that can be up to three months.
What happens once the map expires? Do all the slots you open reset? Does the map retain the slots you open when the map comes back around the following year?
@@Shadohz75 Maps are always brand new and Mysterious Island hasn't been around for a year so I can't say for sure, but I presume not and are treated in a similar way to seasons. Basically, expect exact maps to only be available during their current runtime. This is why it's a good idea to check videos and blog posts of the maps so you can plan which maps to do and what stuff to get ahead of time.
@@seandobbins2231 Nod. i was saving up for the war flag chest and had over 30 moves but Halloween event happened so I put me back 33 moves. I was waiting on them to update the map to show the best paths to take to get the Sept map war chest but that was never updated on hwc site. I don't think I'll save up enough in the next 30 days to get the flag. I don't know yet so I may have to wait until this map comes back around or try for the Tank flag once it become available again.
@Shadohz75 I wouldn't worry about the war flag that much. I imagine after this iteration they'll put the new one in basic war flag chests so it should become easier to get relatively soon.
If I have to start all over again, what I'll spend $ on day 1 (and during an event, better if with multiple Get VIP dips) is the 8-week Mysterious Island subscription. That purchase alone will earn you 10,000 VIP points, get you straight to VIP 10 and +70% Emeralds with every purchase. As a new player you can 1st-time purchase x10 Emeralds ($0.75), x8 Emeralds ($1.19), and x5 Emeralds ($3.79)
As mentioned, when u are talking about emeralds, it might be a good idea to talk about WHEN to get them, and not just buy them when u need them. Apart from that - nice guide, actually discovered a few things myself, eventough I've been playing for a while 😉🙃
So one thing with the Arachne promo. Is that when you do it - I do agree get as many soul coins as you can. Spend energy until you can all the soul coins to max her but Do Not max her. Level 3 is fine. The reason is that towers as soon as you have 1 hero with 5-6 star evolution becomes really, and I mean really hard. They put enemy teams up with teams of the same level evolution. Until you have gained a team of 4 evo5-6 star then just keep her 2 or 3. Then you can level her up later as you need to. Also tip for towers and becoming impossible to do. These events with level up potions for heros. Buy them but don't apply them. Your team level doesn't count to tower enemy strength. But if you have 10 heroes and they are your max level but not skilled up they are useless. You need to level up your tower team up only. Then try and collect more 1 level heroes so that you can keep the tower enemy team at a low enough level that it is possible to complete them. Do not level everyone you have up that is the worse thing to do and makes towers really difficult. Just level certain players until you have enough heroes that balances it out.
@16:38 where ? LOL, only if you are in a top 3 Guild & if you have alot of 6 star Titans or spend alot of real money.. after a year of playing, I realized that probably the most important thing in the game is getting as many Titans to 6 star asap.. from lvl 65 Titans require 500k+ gold for each level, the amount of gold you get from Titan soul stones is 75% of the game, with out it, it will take forever to level up Heroes & Titans..
Wait for some event with a prize you really need. Patience is the key for the VIP0 crowd. When you really have to spend emeralds do it in something that will get you other resources like opening outland chests. Only spend resources to get more resources and play daily for a few minutes to get the free stuff.
TBH this game is not designed f2p friendly unless you started playing this game 5 years ago. This is a p2w game, if you want to compete with those paid players you gonna spend looooooooooooooong time on the game
Playing without raid is XXX. Did some few first months and prayed for christmass golden ticket. Didnt got. So was then choosing betweem ending and spending. Choosed wrongly....so still playing :-P First 4,5k emeralds for first totem fragment, next 45k for second totem fragment ;) see i as first spending.
Thank You for your videos... Been playing a bit over a year and I still dont get some things... Example - I tried to build evenly instead of focusing on a team of 5. I struggle with making good team combos.
You want some kind of main team, even if you're more or less leveling evenly. At the very least don't level more than 15 at a time because any more takes too much to do and top much time and for most the game you don't need more than 15 heroes across game modes. Also, when you're deciding which 15 to level, be able to make good teams with them so you'll have good teams once they're leveled up. If you struggle with team combos, ask around Discord servers like Charlie's server or the official game server or ask players in your guild or server in game chat. Also, there's the "combat training" tab under the chat icon that allows you to do practice fights for various modes, either with your current heroes or with max heroes. That said, it's worth noting that if you do max combat training some heroes will do differently than they do at lower levels since they will gain new abilities or upgrades once they reach a certain advancement, such as ascension skills (which only some heroes have).
Most people don’t realize the promo exists because of how it unlocks and the timing of it. It’s designed to get players to stay on the game just a little bit longer on that first day but it does a poor job advertising what it is
sure, it is okay to spend gems if you know you can get them back and the only way that happens if you spend dough. The game isn't worth the effort to physically buy them. You know, Martha is now a weaponised supergeek now thanks to all the cheating that goes on. Instead of healing, she can do one hit kills lol. Spending gems doesn't help, or guarantee anything, event or not. Some players spent 11k and barely move forward. It is good to add tips here, but this will just be a flyover.

Ye I'm always just saving my explorer moves for when a new island pops up.

interesting. Thats why I cant complete tower anymore. I was spreading levl potions to get stronger 3v3 teams

How bout spending emeralds at the rarity shop? Seems like might save you alot of time.

Hey im f2p so I dont have access to raid (im on web) and i only have on average 7K emeralds what would be good for me to spend on then?

He IS NOT Wrong. max her out. then you get access to the soul store
This must be very old video, reuploded. Because I wasn't getting Arachenes Soul Stones when I started playing year ago.
I started a new account a few months back and I was getting Arachne soul stones.

@@HeroWarsCentral Thanks, Maybe that was the problem with my case.
@@HeroWarsCentral yea was new to me and i started playing like 2.5 months ago. Wish i would of known back then.
