For what it's worth, I have used guys with a blowout skill to consistently cycle HOF the last 3 weeks. They cruise through 4.10, 5.10 and 6.8 without any problems (I have currently better guys for 6.9 and 6.10, or else I wouldn't hesitate to use someone with a blowout skill there either). If the skill turns off (which I…
Turned out well. Thanks to @Reeces and Fredd3 for the closing assistance. If anyone needs a discount club this weekend, feel free to drop by ht0wn (with a zero). .3 discount. Donations appreciated but not required.
@mythicaldragon There's a different way to look at it for those looking to stash LXP. If my math is right, those 20 boxes (10 ATG and 10 Mega LXP) should yeld an average of ~85K LXP. That is what you would expect from somewhere in the neighborhood of 40 Mega LXP, which would cost 20k gold. For those that spend, it normally…
Any thoughts on whether to cap Bench? I’m currently rocking a max 330 at catcher, so I could use an upgrade. I just don’t know if it’s worth farming 650k LXP for a righty, even a 520 catcher. Thoughts?
They promised the update at least 6 weeks before it actually arrived. It's only been 2 weeks or so since saying that weekend Royale would be here "soon." Maybe we see it sometime around Thanksgiving.
This is what I understand the XP and blue cash costs to be for player leveling. That said, I've never bothered to confirm the accuracy of the blue cash, so keep that in mind. BXP Full PricePXP Full…
My version of sandbagging is to just play one round with video boosts, and I usually score in the 1-3M range. That almost always leads to my next opponent being someone who would be lucky to score 1M, but also helps me avoid the full-on sandbaggers. Also helps me reach the FP tier 5 consistently without having to dump…
Who is the Royale WOH reward? I'm on a delay. Can't imagine myself spending the time needed to chase a mas 420-435 prime anymore, but curious nonetheless.
Well, they just (inadvertently, it seems) gave away a 490 Legend as a WOH reward, so maybe they feel they need to up the ante. Still, a 30-point jump seems extreme.
@drsmartassphd I've said it before but I'll say it again: if you have a long way to go because you are building resources to bring a substantial portion of your lineup to gold, you are doing way more than necessary to move up. Get a couple POTM guys, level them with BXP, and level 1-2 legends. That's all you need. Before…
@DFBB I never lost at 4.10 or 5.10. In 11 cycles I think I may have lost at 6.8 once, and even then I think it was more due to bad timing on an otherwise hittable pitch leading to an inning-ending double play.
@drsmartassphd If I were you, I would only save up enough LXP to level 2 legends at most. If you have any current POTM guys, level them as high as you can, and you get legend performance for BXP cost. The key to moving up is to take advantage of POTM guys to ease your transition. Use them to cycle cap new guys at the new…
Can't answer or won't answer? I'm guessing it's the latter, because there's no good answer for why they *wouldn't* trigger on/off other than it being easier to code only one trigger.
It feels like I'm beating a dead horse, but these issues would be gone if you moved to gold and capped 4-5 guys at G.10. This game is not designed to be easily beaten at Silver. It just isn't. The odds are intentionally stacked against you. It's a little bit like someone getting mad because their scratch off lottery ticket…
Konerko and his blowout skill are still mowing down 4.10 and 5.10, so I haven't seen anything that would make me believe skills turn on/off mid-WOH round.
I was expecting one of the terrible new skills to be featured here, yet I was still disappointed when I saw it. I especially hate when they pair a skill that generally only activates in early innings with a skill (Late) that literally only activates in the late innings.
I’ve been sitting on a hoard of LXP waiting to cap a lefty HOF closer, but I keep pulling guys who simply aren’t ideal. First it was Campaneris, but he’s a righty and I pulled him right after cycle capping Cabrera. Then I pulled Dykstra, who would be great but since one of his skills is OB, he can’t be used as a true…
