TES94 Knight Manager (in the Dragon's Lair), Expedition End Zone and The Bridge of Doom

Wed, 17 Aug 2022 08:10:08 -0000

From the ridiculously dangerous to the sublimely sassy today - via a nuclear holocaust 🐉🐇🍄

Expedition End Zone - 👍👍👍👍 The Bridge of Doom - 👍👍👍👍

And now some top tips on the Knight Manager skill from the excellent John Snowling: I thought I’d write another post to let you know the latest goings on in Knight-manager. Things are going to get very interesting, especially into next season. As you know the Thorium shards can be made into both arrows and spears. The arrows we use in the dark forest to hit the dragon with and hopefully get Dragon Scales. We now have something called the Dragon Rock in game where you can go to the top of the mountain and donate gold to bring a new dragon back after the old one has been defeated. For that gold donation you can possibly get a Scale Shield Blueprint which you can learn to make scale shields from 25 scales and 10 silver bars. If you kill the dragon in its lair then you would obtain 3000 diamonds from the king and a blueprint for a dragon saddle. At the end of this season, both the dragon Saddle and Blueprint will carry over to the next season. Oh yes if you equip your scale shield and if you have more than 2 of them then you have a chance if you fight the dragon in his lair of getting a dragon egg. Once you have your egg you equip the shield to get out and go to the dragon nest where you wrap your egg in a wolf hide. Over a few days it takes up to 5 wolf hides to keep your egg warm and eventually a baby dragon will hatch. You need to feed your baby dragon regularly with orc meat from warriors otherwise it will fly away. Once the dragon has gone up a few levels it will b a young adult and can help you find resources in the dark forest and also help you in the arena. Think of it as having an extra member of your tag team who can do 10 times the damage that your able to do to a knight. Once your dragon gets to level 10 and if you have a dragon saddle, you can ride him in the dark forest and your dragon likes to eat orcs which is fun. I haven't managed to get the dragon egg yet but maybe next season i'll do it. The next big changes are hunting. The developers are planning to bring in some new hunting skills next season. There is already a command to select what hunting skills you want active. You can have up to 3 hunting skills active so if you owned them all you can do strategic hunting in the dark forest so if you know the zombies are out you would want fire power to deal with them if normal orcs then maybe other hunting skills you would utilise. Shaun will probably know that the blackjack in the Tavern has changed. You now see the dealers card first before he gives you your cards. I think its incredible the changes that are going to be coming and trust me I think there are more changes coming up. One good tip I want to give is if you can and you have the diamonds buy lots of tickets for the fair. I did this a couple of weeks ago and last week. The first time I bought 300 tickets for 1500 diamonds and have one hell of a blast at the fair. I came away with probably 15 bonuses probably more tons of servants tons of arrows, mushrooms and apples and about 5 million in gold plus about 900 in diamonds. I loved the free spins I kept on getting and it was so much good fun I was laughing with tears running down my face. When the first order gets to 80 percent I'll start building up my tickets for the next season. Your diamonds, skills,bonuses and tickets carry over to the next season so it would be good to go to the first fair of a new season and get tons of stuff to help my knight out. One other small thing I have noticed is when you do the daily adventure your knight is summoned by you from his castle and asked to undertake the adventure. I must admit I do love prestige mode 1 which is opened after you complete the first 100 adventures. You repeat the 100 but they are 30 percent harder and you do get a really good pay out of gold and diamonds the further on you go. Anyway Robin and Shaun am loving the shows you have done so far. Thanks for a great podcast and keep up the good work. Cheers. From John Snowling.
