Please ask all questions relating to the Sentinals of the Past event in this topic. Enjoy it :)
I have dug through the pervious topic from the last portal event to re-assemble the FAQ for players who need reminding. Courtesy of Arctic and Hwmguide.ru - Hopefully all remains relevant ;)
Some FAQs relating to the event:
Q: How do I join an event combat?
A: https://www.lordswm.com/tj_event.php try here. You will need to set up your character first: https://www.lordswm.com/tj_set.php
Q: What ammunition do I need?
A: Shop artifacts only, some minimum AP threshold based on current participation. Enchantments have no effect.
Q: What is wrong with my "Favoured enemy", "Necromancy", "Gating" etc.?
A: All faction skills and unique racial abilities are disabled in event combats.
Q: How often do these battles occur?
A: They occur once every 10 minutes. Note that you are limited to 7 daily attempts (unused attempts stack up).
Q: What are these crystals of time?
A: They are currency for this event. They are used to recruit more troops, to unlock creature upgrades and magic guild levels, and to enhance creature stats.
Q: How should I spend my crystals?
A: In the beginning you don't have too many, better spend them to recruit creatures (and unlock a few creature tiers).
Q: I want to change the use of my crystals. Can I do that?
A: Yes. Reset your crystals, you will not lose any.
Q: Can I gain more crystals of time?
A: Of course! Defeats earn 20 CoT, victories earn 50. Victories also earn some gold.
Q: What faction do I gain skill points for?
A: For your current faction.
Q: What is the level range for volunteering in a vanguard?
A: +-3 levels compared to vanguard leader.
Q: What is "Recruit count" parameter?
A: Recruit count increases the number of creatures in battle. It is only effective if the percentage allows increasing the creature count by at least 1, no "non-full HP" creatures will be added on top of the stack.
Q: Where can I find some info on event creatures?
A: Try this: http://angelsndemons.freeforums.org/post1547.html#p1547 |
Q: What does the strength of Sentinels of the Past depend on?
A: It depends on the total number of CoT you dispose of, thus, it directly depends on the amount of combats you have lost or won.
Q: Will my level be frozen, like in tournaments?
A: It will. As long as you participate in event battles only, you will stay at your current CL. Leveling up will not affect the number of attempts, plan your event participation based on your preference.
Q: How do MCs get points?
A: 1 point for a 3vs3 victory, 0.7 pts for 2vs2, 0.3 for 1vs1. Defeats earn no points.
Q: Can I fight with a completely empty castle at a new faction, to gain some easy FR?
A: Yep, much advised to. The fsp ratio is same as in TG in this event, so it is an excellent opportunity for those who want to grow some FR.
Q: By how much is morale reduced exactly?
A: For creatures of one faction, morale is +1 (not influenced by characte, unless he/she is necromancer). Then, for every other faction creature it is -1 morale, for necro creature -2 morale.
Q: Do damage and defense parametes increase my character's direct damage?
A: They do.
Q: I have unlocked a magic school, but my characte has no knowledge. Will I get any mana to be able to cast spells?
A: You will not. You need to increase your knowledge by equipping artifacts.
Q: Can I use artifacts from gift section of the shop?
A: You can.
Q: Can I join combats with tavern luck drink effect/skill potion effect?
A: You cannot join event combats while you are under taven drink effect. You can join with skill potion effect, but it is useless.
Q: Which spells do I get by unlocking a Magic guild level?
A: All spells of all four Magic schools, including mass spells, at expert Magic talent level.

| tip for those who want to start by winning. 300 sentries and 100 veterans= too tanky to be beat. you can get with starting crystals(or at least i could) and they are too strong melle and have 50% range resist |
| Since the Portal of Time is open, is it possible to go back to pre-Survilurg days so I can stop defending and play this game as a game? |
| for starting 150 faeries and 150 sprites also good setup/ |
| Question for Arctic or admins (if they are around): will this event also give battle glory for the MC? Are the points that the clan gathers added to the battle glory? |
for Lord Fosgeen:
No, the points that clans gain in this event are independent of battle glory and it is intended to remain that way. |
| whats the cheapest 30 AP ? |
| slayerofall: It seemed to work out well for you. Congrats to 7/7 today! |
| well i have crusaders blazing hounds and wardens if i change faction to demon will i have +1 morale? |
for Dark_Snow:
Your character faction has nothing to do with it.
You will have 0 base morale because you still have troops from 2 different factions recruited. Necromancer troops will cause -2 base morale, bear that in mind.
1 faction = 1 base
2 factions = 0 base
3 factions = -1 base
Of course, you can improve on your 0 morale with that recruitment if you wear arts that give you morale. |
| If we are going back further into the past (i.e. to beyond the earlier Time Portal event), then wouldn't the enemy troops be even lower tiers? |
| guys just an other question before i change faction my FSP is good for my lv or i have to raise it more? |
| Your fsp is normal for your level. Since you're not far advanced in your level, I guess it's quite good :). The event gives you the opportunity to get fsp in a faction without need to build that castle. |
| for Lord Fosgeen:thank you very much then i think i wont change faction ill lv up my main :) |
| I have a question, it says talents can't be used, but does erudition have any effect, as it increases your stats? |
| no i have basic erudition 20 atack on my profile in batle 18 :) |
| ok, thank you |
i increased my initiative to 10, but in battle it shows only .8 increase
whys that :( even though i kill most of the enemy's i get middle exp around 2.8
:/ |
i increased my initiative to 10, but in battle it shows only .8 increase
That is a 10% increase in initiative, not 10 points. Base initiative is 8, so 10% of that is 0.8 increase in initiative - Nothing wrong there.
even though i kill most of the enemy's i get middle exp around 2.8
It may be that you are fighting with different levels, the reason they will get more or less exp is that they are higher or lower levels than you are. |
