another place easiest than madness underworld? :(
Received only 1 3stars evolution rune from madness Battlefield, a matter of life and death. Seems more worth it to farm in Underworld.
UPDATE: added another 100 rounds of game of death and structurated the thread better. the drops seem to be even better than i thought!
Yes please slauki!!!!!!!!
I've evolved 4-5 talismans to 5* since the update, mostly farming various battlefield madness missions. So the rainbow evo runes are definitely dropping there, but maybe not as often as underworld madness. Battlefield madness seems better than underworld hard though. Also I'm getting all colors of regular runes from everywhere post patch. Evo runes and evo shards seem to be the only ones limited by world.
Thank you so much for this data, it essentially means I won't be playing this game too much untill next update. I love how they changed drops for campaign, but the changes to 3 star coloured shards drops are nuts. I can't beat LoL on level X, because my team is too weak, even with troopers' help. To beat this level, I need to evolve my 4* character, but I won't be able to, cause I'll never get evo shards to do it.
150 battles on level 8 and not a single coloured 3* evo shard is just madness.
Just as somewhere to put my notes from just then, I've done 7 rounds of the blue LoL X dungeon writing down loot for the first time. What springs to mind is that the number of 3* blue shards is excessively high!
Similarly for regular souls. Since the update I feel like I am now swimming in them! Anyway, got my daily 3* coloured evo shard from the dungeon on the 3rd run fwiw. So totals:
7 turns Blue LoL X
3* blue - 43
4* blue - 8
1* evo blue - 1 (wtf!)
2* evo blue - 1
3* evo blue - 1
1* evo rainbow - 1 (wtf!)
3* evo rainbow - 1
2k gold - 1
reg souls - 18
added 103 rounds of helloween special level

Very interesting!Quote:

Also, not sure if anyone else experienced it, but I got all the stated drops on first runs through (achieving all quests). So I got a shard on first run through madness...
oh i forgot to mention, that i didn't count the first round, because the gunner soul was supposed to drop, so no rng there.Quote:

i use all my troopers first in KOTS powerslave and then i farm the helloween special, because rare souls/skillshards are everything that i care about and i want to use the possibility.
i also refilled a couple of time to get these results and take fully advance of the offer, but the last 30 rounds i got absolutly nothing :-(
so maybe i got a good run at the beginning or a bad run at the end, but we will draw a conclusion at the end of the event...
Hmmmm I didn't get a gunner soul for first round. :-(
Good point on comparing to the dungeon... In which case, it isnt so bad. If you want souls/shards, then go hard on halloween for sure. I guess I should probably be making the most of it while its available right?
I tried a full round of SoT though and while I did get a shard, everything else was pure junk (after the first run through). Whereas at least in the dungeons you get slightly better junk. Or maybe its better phrased that there is less risk of absolute junk when doing LoLX :)
As for the drop estimates, I'd be really interested to see the stats on secret levels. Got this one the other day! Has got to be amongst the biggest 3* rainbow evo rune hauls possible right (6x)?

My problem is I have 335 3* purple evo runes. I'd love to farm underworld for more rainbow evo runes, but it's not gaining me any red, green, or blue evo runes while I'm there. Not that I'm in a panic for any coloured runes, but I'm double digits in red and green (I have ALOT of green and red talismans maxed already, but could always use more as almost every character takes green, and more often than not red).
added another 125 level of helloween special

Well clearly the skillshards & assassin/gunner souls are not actually working. But what do you think about the rare soul drop rate? 8% seems reasonable to me?Quote:

Also, is it just me or is the additional sands of time drop amount quite high?
Edit: Actually no, seems its about the same as all of madness after checking the start of this thread.... Plus the level costs a heap more sand than in the cosmos!
Hey Esquatcho, 8% sounds also very reasonable to me, but not getting one single skillshard or one rare gunner soul after more than 250 tries is really awkward, if they are supposed to drop.Quote:

beside this SOT doesn't seems that great to me, because one level costs 10sot, so more would be really appreciated...
the ironit is in a pretty normal range.
so i will farm the level as hard as i can, to earn some more rare souls today.
Actually I can't wait for the event to quickly end, so that I can stop wasting my ironites on SoT refills to get an illusional skill shard, and get back to rune farming.
I am getting a lot of the 3* rainbow runes in Dogs of War Madness - not sure on drop rate but in a fresh 80 sands of time I did get 5. I am struggling to get blue 3 star shards and oddly 1 star red evos.Quote:

Does anyone know where to farm to get 4* blue runes consistently? I am farming only Game of Death madness as almost every late-game player, runes i got mostly yellow and purple ones which is normal. And sometimes i got 5 x 3* blue rune drops also, but thats not enough. I got quite good loot there no complain. But i have a lot of blue talismans to level up to 5. It's quite hard to level blue talismans to 5* with 3* blue runes, and i don't want to spend other color runes for less level up and future upgrades. Any recent experience?
sorry no idea, since i didn't count them. i would imagibe bettlefield madness would be the place to farm them since blue runes drop there. but that's onla a guess.Quote:

None here.Quote:

As posted in another thread, I feel we are looking at the wrong issue. The real premium loot appears to be the regular runes. I ran out last eve finally after 20 some odd talismans taken to level 50. Upgraded 3 talismans since to 5*, and don't have enough runes to get one to level 50. I don't know what else to say. I'm about done playing.
Bingo. ^^^^^. No power up runes is the hardest part of the game. I can get talisman to 50 and players to 100 now, but I'll be damed if it doesn't take over a week to power up a single talisman.
i think this is a temporary issue. at the time the thread was created, the3* runes were the main bottleneck. at this time the 2* runes and the normal runes are the problem. but i bet after the next tuning update, the 3* runes will be the rarest again.Quote:

As I said in another thread some sort of "Alchemist" where you can swap for gold or 3:1 to a different color would be a solution. Even if you always get the wrong color farming you still can evolve through exchanging stuff.Quote:

It looks as though they are trying to prevent us from advancing. The drop rate increase of the 3* evo runes was a whitewash. You can't tell me this is a difficult thing to code, I've coded some basic stuff before. They've had 2 or 3 small updates since. This is simply a waste of time.
Without a doubt.Quote:

Cause red 2* evo runes are so rare I can't even evolve 3* red talismans to 4*, let alone 4* to 5*
That's pathetic!
that's shit patch and strategy=losing players soonQuote:

they talk a lot about balance, but it seems to me, that balancing isn't that easy for them. i have very low motivation on counting the
drops anymore, since they really fix it.
i would have to start a 3rd count "after the 2nd tuning patch"...this is ridiculous.
so i'm not sure about the future of this thread and the game anymore. maybe they will loose too many players, that won't come back...
Noooo! This thread is hugely important to the community!Quote:
