[Featured] Guide: Wrecking Ball (Burst)

[Celestus]

I wanted to create a guide for the strategy I'm using to attack. Depending on how it is received, I might create guides for the other strategies as well.

For reference's sake, this definitely works up to 2700ish offense trophies.

I will try to update the guide whenever anything changes, patch-wise or otherwise.

Enjoy!

Haha, liked that strategy Celestus ! Would definitely try it in-battle

Love the strategy, I use a similar one but I used spreadshot instead of long shot and never summon hoplites and can vouch that this strategy or atleast a slightly different version of it works past 3500 attack trophies

It's great to know that the tactic works up to 3.5k. That's something to look up to. Regarding Spread Shot, I know that it can be useful if you also build Strength on Artemis but I wanted the guide to be concise and to the point and thus left it out. I will probably add it to the guide next time I update it but I need to test it out myself first to know how it feels and if it has any aspects that need consideration, like for example, making sure you don't hit minions with it.

I used to lightning strike after inspiration, it gets buffed? So why not extra dmg.

number 1 prioraty should be athena temple no matter what. In burst you have to be fast so simple logic less hp faster clear time..

and hoptiles over aegis¿ that smells mariuhana

flaming arrows all the way for burst much more effective with inspiration combo than sunstrike

cheers

You'd know...

I personally spawn my other four gods after Aegis then activate spreadshot sun strike and lighting strike and use inspiration before they land, then activate hawk storm and blood lust then soon after slow time, but yeah I've levelled my athena's health and aegis to 60/60 so she never really dies despite taking a lot of damage, glad to know people haven't given up on burst, rarely see it these days, good thing is so many people use the other strats that bases are no longer built to prevent bursters.

I always drop Athena and use aegis then drop Zeus and lightning strike then drop Apollo art and Ares and us sun strike to help clear a path for ares then charge to the first temple usually art or ares whichever is closest to athena and long shot it to take it down immediatly, the slow time and hawk storm to begin killing troops after a few second when most of the units are about to die I cast bloodlust and inspiration then I summon hoplites to add to ares bloodlust quicker then charge the Athena temple and then go from there... But it's always those same casts at those times and priotity is around Athena temple

Burst is definitely not dead. It's just not being overly used in the top 100. I'm aware of at least 4 people in the top 100 that use Burst, I'm suspecting that there are more.

In the forums we have like what? 20 top 100 players that are posting? 25? Doubtful. It's probably much less. It's just the opinion of the very few that post that is heard all the time.

I can tell you...resetting your gods to try a tactic nobody really uses is a horrible idea.... It set me back a month. I tried a maxed spread shot ,rot, flaming arrow combo... Didn't work like I thought.

Spread shot and Roy work incredibly well together... Don't see how flaming arrows would fit unless your using a very slow push using Athena and aphro to build an army then the gold is much better spent on hoplites spawn and aphro charm, but yeah I don't use flaming arrows I think mine is still as low as level 7 so I'm not sure how eefective it is

I never suggested anyone resets and starts over. You guys keep thinking that guides are made for people who are already doing well. Why is that? If you are already good at the game, why would you bother with any guide? The guides are for people that are just starting and want to figure out working tactics.

I was thinking flaming arrow for area damage and crowd control.

Sorry celestus...I think u have a great guide.. I wasn't speaking directly to your guide. i should have started new topic...

[Dingo]

And I apologize to Celestus for bringing this to your thread, love the strat you explained and am hoping new players give it a try, I can attest it's a lot of fun and work pretty well
