Hello!
I’m pretty new in the game, I start 3 weeks ago.
I reached paragon 500 inferno2 and I’m stacked here… I miss 3000 CR for move to inferno3 and I don’t know where I can get it …
Till here the game in been smooth and balanced but now is look like that for pass to the next difficulty I need to max out everything and it will take ages …
I’m doing something wrong or is normal?
Tips please, I don’t know how to get more CR, the gear is missing maybe 500CR but even like this is still far the target
Gear ranks, Helliquary, Warband Tableau, all of these provide large amount of CR on top of what you get from the gear itself.
There really is no magic trick, increasing your CR can be tedious. For example I only returned to this game earlier this year and my primary gear is still only at rank 23, all pieces. That means, if I’m not mistaken, I’m missing 640 CR still from those alone. My total is however almost 41k so I can comfortably do Inf3.
Always run Helliquary bosses twice a week and normal Cyrangar defense weekly. Those alone should provide 960 Warband points, enough for 3 Tableau upgrades.
Yes, the Defense can be soloed. Just select create raid first and then enter. Don’t bother with the endless mode as it’s not worth the effort, do just the normal one.
As for why certain tasks not giving Warband points even though the Pass says otherwise, don’t know the logic there.
Activities that give Warband points whether you do them solo or in a group…
Castle Defence (normal)
Castle Defence (endless)
Purge The Depths
Helliquary Raids
Activities that give Warband points only when you do them with at least one other Warband member in your party…
Dungeons
Bounties
This brings us to the two weekly caps on Warband points, i.e. the soft cap (1000 points) and the hard cap (1500 points). Whilst you’re underneath the soft cap, you earn four times as many Warband points for the activities. Once you’re at / above the soft cap, you earn the standard amount of Warband points for the activities.
As an example…
Under soft cap, a set of 5 raid boss kills will give you 400 Warband points
At / above the soft cap, a set of 5 raid boss kills will give you 100 Warband points
As for speed of obtaining Warband points, without other Warband members being available…
Monday morning, do 5 raid boss kills (better in a group, but it can be with randoms) - 400 WB points
Monday morning, do 11 Purge The Depths - 440 WB points
The raids will take 10-15 minutes depending on the group. The castle will be another 10 minutes or so. The purges, if you use a speed build, ignore the trash mobs and just kill the end of wing boss(es) that can drop the item to spawn the final boss, can be done in less than two minutes average, so 11 runs should be 20 minutes or so. So, that’s 45 minutes to get to 1000 WB points (the soft cap). That’s enough for 3 Tableau level upgrades (these cost 300 WB points each). On Thursday, you do another set of 5 raid bosses, for 100 WB points. That leaves you with 400 WB points to get. If you really want to do it solo, that’s 40 more Purges, but just do some random dungeons with at least one other WB member in your group and you’ll cap that out in no time.
Getting to the 1500 hard cap means you’ll get 5 Tableau level upgrades a week. Depending on how far below your Tableau is compared to the Server’s Tablea level, five upgrades like that could be worth a couple of hundred CR.
why?
