Now that those gems will be off the leash soon, can't wait to see a spectacular lavish gem spending results.
Please update us on the results next year.

Being stuborn paid off, was able to beat 13-10 without the 2nd disposal. But damn was i lucky. Every little detail worked out for me. Can't even imagine a better draw and RNG procs than this.
Guess the game got tired of me being there. Here's a little video for the fight. Now it's time to tackle 13-11. That one seems even worse and this time disposal cards won't get me the job done, so i'll probably park there for a while again.

Hi Somar, Just wanted to say, thank you for doing this project, you have been an inspiration and a HUGE help to me personally and I know also to many others. Great that you reached your goals. I have a similar conundrum to you re. 5* melding. I know I need to remove revive from mystic but can't really afford to do so. I hadn't realised the success rates were so low and that I would need quite so many Fafnir! I know the shards are in guild maps but I still need more puppeteers and twins as well! Also, I'm doing rubbish in human chamber 5 still! LOL!

That's pretty fast. It took me roughly the same amount of time as star to get to level 80+. Although, I started this game without any strategy and also spent up till level 60 in weak guilds.

I believe my 1st account took more than that also Which is kind of strange if u ask me, I did way more mazes in my 1st account, while with this one i spent most of my energy in shard exploring and actually stoped doing mazes after mines came out (bar the mandatory 1st time to get the gems) was under the impression that mazes would give a better experince/energy ratio than shard exploring but apparently its the other way arround? can't recall where else i could have leveled faster

Just did a quick check.
Maze (map 9):
approx 1000xp per normal dice roll Approx 1500xp if you land on a battle Random 10k+xp if you land on ?
Exploring:
Approx 2600xp per explore (4 star)
This test wasn't detailed or anything but just from looking at those initial numbers it looks like you will in fact level almost 2x faster with exploring if you exclude landing on a ?
I also did a ton of mazes when I started out and spent more energy on it than I did on farming.

Somar! I just had an idea for your project. (I know its somehow done) but maybe try and get 99k gems when bond collect and than spend 99k gems when there is a nice total spendings reward.

The project is over but since people showed interested in knowing the progress of the account here goes another update on things.
I'm still on 13-11. Lost count of many times I've looked at that dungeon's setup and haven't done a single attempt so far. Damn thing is scary, everytime I think about trying, I take a look to decide how to build my deck and just give up and spend my energy elsewhere. (really need to grow a pair and man up)
Map 12 is at 34/36 from being finished. 12-11 normal and hard are the stars missing but that damn captivator is strong as hell. I can win sometimes but never got the completation condition so far. Everytime Crazed sorrow activates i just loose any kind of board control and my hero ends up paying the toll. I did stick a Hero Vigor rune V recently on my Wight. Perhaps with that I can get it done.
I'm 7 Zombie King shards away from my 3rd thalassa. I think I will meld this one on The Twins.
I really need to start spending some gems and speed my way into a couple of 5* heroes. Relying only on 4* is making me slow down big time. Everyone arround me in tournament has at least 2 5* heroes if not 3. Holding positions against that is not an easy task, specially since any fool* with an Oceanus can get a free win against my deffenses.
*Fool is just an expression, no offense meant to anyone.
Got into 641 as my best tournament rank so far. That didn't last much and currently I'm going up and down in the 750-850 zone.
Fun thing, after finishing my project I had a lot of cards saved that I was unable to use before. Now I have no idea what to do with them. So far the only non-farmable card I'm using is Capricorn which is an awesome card BTW.
That about sums it up for now.

HI somar what a journey great job enjoyed this post so much thanks for keeping it up. Learned so much from you Congratz for reaching your goals!!! Got questions would appreciate if you got the time to answer since I really like your strategy in game and how you think 1)What is your top 2 choices for 5* heroes shards from tournament? 2)I have a wight deck in tournament Harbringer recycle Harbringer instakill 2x spirit siren Hellknight Gorgon Bloodletter Undying will Dulalhan Phoiniex Also have extra Bloodletter 2x undying will Any sugestions what to farm for improvement? Been seeing a few helwolf disposal and fa eye of jonara what do you think of those cards would they have a place in my deck(which card to replace)? Got copies to meld Hell knight was thinking In a morti deck because of lack of Heal maybe life sap. Is that the best option for him? 3) In tournament from your experience which is better defence mixed decks or faction deck for synergy? Sorry for long post

HI greeklover, 1st of all thanx for reading and kind words. always nice to know people find interesting some of the silly stuff that goes in my brain. now for the awnsers 1) Right now my favourite is Captivator, she's incredibly powerfull. As a 2nd choice I'm going for Judgement, but between him and Warlock it's really close. But to be honest as long as you avoid Overlord you will be fine. 2)I think that deck gives you a solid start. Some voodoo runes for rage control and 2x seals makes a good combo to use with wight. I would add a FA EoJ for sure. I have one and it's an awesome card. I like disposal hellwolf. Didn't found the time to build one yet for myself. I would still preffer undying will with disposal, although u dont have enough copies for a guaranteed meld, it would be something to consider. Melding Hell knight with life sap does seem to be the best overall option, specially if you have a rune to go with that. Melded dullahan can be one of the best 4* in game, unmelded i think he doesn't quite do enough. I would replace him for something more usefull until you can get a meld there. (i like the idea of farming a Oinari or Fae firstborn for that purpose). The EoJ I mentioned above will do far more in his place right now. The same goes for bloodletter. I hate that card when unmelded, melded it can become good, but for now I would ditch her. If you have the undying talent on wight I think thats far to many mortii cards to make it effective. Undying works best with 4-5 mortii cards only, or you will just waste the 2nd and 3rd triggers on the same cards again. If you are rolling other talents then it's OK. Consider using a couple of melded oracles (immunity ones work best but FA also does the job fine). Oracles work very good with wight because they heal your cards (something mortii lack), they heal your hero (wight being one of the heroes that really needs it the most) and they pump rage in to trigger death curse more often. 3) Generally, mixed decks work far better than faction ones for deffense. If you stack too many similar cards togheter it becomes really easy to counter even with inferior cards. Mixing factions and skills gives the other guy more to think about and makes the RNG Gods grant you more lucky wins here and there.

Hi all,
It's time for me to say goodbye, I will just do it in this thread. Seems like a perfect place to close things up.
It was a fun year I had in DH. You guys are an awesome community.
I had lots of laughs, discussions and just plain good times during almost a whole year on the forum.
I played this game for over an year, if it wasn't for this community i probably wouldn't have lasted 6 months.
I big farewell to all NFS members, which was my 1st guild and family in this game.
An even bigger one to all the BK people out there that took me in after NFS and kept me in the game this long.
Regards to all Somar
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have one final thing to do in DH before leaving for good:
My LillyAnne account has close to 60K unspent gems. (It was a little over 60k after the 50k alchemy but i spent some in the mines recently).
I haven't decided what to do with it.
My options are to give the account away to someone (I'm don't want to sell, just give it away). Apart from the gems this account also has:
LV8 Predator (some 10-15 shards away from LV9) DR, Berzerker, Wight all LV8 has well
+ all other 4* heroes except deathmort
No 5* heroes
The closest from finish are: 74/100 Judgement 57/100 Oceanus 47/100 Captivator
all the melds you can find along this thread + a few extra ones that i only finished recently like retreat QT FA Twins disposal Hellwolf Sac 8 pit dragon FB10 swordmaster
also have some expertise on some good unfinished melds: I9 Angel prime I9 Phantom Liedge (1 more copy available for next meld day) FA5 Terror dragon FA5 Graboids (some extra 6 or so graboids for melds)
and some extra 5* i'm not using currently: archdeva 2x titania jormungand kumiho yeti 2x undying will thalassa (its the 3rd one unsealed) gorgon abaddon ridge hunter nidhogg anathema spider queen (+1 at lv10) sekhmet 2x hanuman
Not the top out there but also not a bad account to get for free with 60k gems u can use to improve it.
If anyone is ineterest let me know and I will consider it
the 2nd option is to keep the account and just spend all gems on altar or booster just to give an odds sample for the community and then just abandon the account.
I wil get back to this in a couple of days and make my decision then.

It's sad indeed. I hope you got everything out of the game you wanted. Some of the goals you finished without using gems at all is amazing, you really did prove that despite the odds f2p can achieve a lot of things, and achieve them better. Your walkthrough must have put to shame a lot of whales because their money is worthless when one can work smarter and more efficiently. I am sure many f2p players have taken inspiration from this thread and you have been a great example. The only ones happy to see you go must be those guys at IGG. We will all miss you Somar, at the same time we hope you return.. Again.

Made my decision. Spent 27k gems on the altar today.
Got the following 5*
Great mystic Cancer Blossoms Bewitcher
Thats 6750 gems for each 5*.
Still have 25k gems that I will use on booster packs either today or tomorrow to see what it gets me. If i don't get any booster sale I will just dump the remaining in altar again.

Ooww.. you made me sad, Somar. i remember the day i just applied to this guild and accepted by you.learned so much from your guides and kindly wise advices in this forum up to now. some time ago i realized that to come across w you was the real chance in this game, not drawing the fucking cards. Now you say its time for a goodbye? Really? Sending my best wishes for you in real life then.We'll be here- (İf lGG doesnt make all of us cancer by its decisions) and waiting for you if you miss all the awesome mates in our guild, and decide to return one day again,who knows, then i wish so.

Dear Somar, although we're not in friendlist but i read your project from start. Hope you just take a short break and come back. I left game in October and finally i'm back to this game because i couldn't find a better game. I installed just to see where my rank was down then uninstalled DH for over 15 times . I also tried all version of DH: Germany, Spanish, Taiwan, Chinese... then i knew i couldn't stop playing this game. I'm a pure f2p and i just want to know how far may i go in this game, with my strategies and friends' help.. Hope to see you again, Somar.

The drops are the same for glory and gems. the only difference is that you can get rune shards which has a similar droprate with rare 4* runes.
