In previous pirate events, enemy had the same number of cannons as us, now when i have 3 cannons, enemy has 6... |
i did max loads till 150 tons, then spammed 145 tons and upgraded my cannons to 14 damage and 12 durability then jumped it to 205 tons and now ilm kinda spamming around 175-200 depending what build im playing. my games are literally just gambling on not having big nix stacks or good hit/miss on ghosts. |

175 tons |
While it is nice to win a battle against a non undead pirate army, I would not say it is particularly fun for the most part. It does seem like my only option is with a build that if I get a bit lucky can make it work against those, while making undead battles harder, but still winnable.
Switches it from, no chance, to a bit of a chance, sometimes.

Is kinda lame that enemy gets extra cannon when you do. I'm still doing the same low weights from before, but enemy is stronger because of that cannon. |

3 victories less than max, but oh well.
Ended with a 13 game win-streak at 175/185, so I've beaten the rand allegations.
Ran out of losses very early on experimenting with different demon/tribal builds, so had to be very conservative in the second half.
Event became manageable after switching to fury barb. Definitely tactics involved after that (knowing the order of enemies to target is key). Behemoths are the definite Nix killer.

I don't think the admins expected it to be this hard. But once it's begun, this event is hard to fix in a fair way.
I think they'll either give out extra gold at the end, or an OP art to make up for it. |

lol..i cant even win 130t battles |
The difficulty seems completely random.....but it's getting easier in the end i think. The ghosts and nixes are pure luck.
They've adjusted the minimum for the clan reward: it's 3,500 now. It was 10,000 at the beginning, then 6,000 now 3,500, so the admins know it's too hard. |
This event needs the net cannon. With that you could cope with a single marauding stack of nixes. Without it, it is just not enjoyable. |

Rewards out.
There is gold to be collected from the event page. |
229,945 that will do nicely. I feel events are more generous with gold these days |
The last wanderer’s event gave a terrible amount of gold
The reward here is probably just an apology for making the event so difficult |
The art won't be worth so much though, ingot an 80 one and finished around 500th |
57000 gold from battles, 220000 from reward, sold art for 155000
430000 gold from one event is quite nice for such a shitty event. |
"All Lords and Ladies whose profit reached at least 35,000 gold will receive another achievement."

For that you faired way better than me in this event the gold reward still is quite decent even without the special plaque for profitable hauling. Got meself 222380 gold plus a roaring Profit: 6,471 gold from shipping. |
