Vikings - Event Guide
Simple rules for huge points and stress-free runs.
Timing
Teusday and Thursdays (check announcments for times).
Core setup
- Best heroes stay home with no troops (unless you dont have enough support for survival).
- Send all troops to other people (ideally swap with around 4 neighbors), Chenko, Yeonwoo etc are good heros to use in first slots when sending to other members.
This is because a successfull defence is when 50% of vikings are killed, not because you survived, for this reason Gordon is not a good hero for the first slot of defence during vikings. - If you lose twice, no vikings will attack you anymore Expel anyone reinforcing you so they can be reallocated thenextinguish your fire. You can continue to earn points reinforcing others.
- Check reports to see if the person you’re reinforcing lost twice, if so recall and send to somone else.
HQ waves — 10 & 20
Attacks on Plains HQ are at Wave 10 and Wave 20 (final). During these:
- Recall all troops.
- Put Chenko as your first hero when sending to HQ.
- After the HQ wave, recall again and then reinforce others.
How points work
Points are earned by killing vikings and by vikings dying at your home. To maximize: let others kill them at your home and you kill in theirs.
If you have any troops at home they’ll block others from getting points.This is the reason you are to avoid healing. Vikings don’t kill much, so healing isn’t necessary; if you want to heal, do it during Wave 10/20when there’s prep time before/after HQ attacks.
Coordination & safety
- Share your coordinates if you need help, or use the request help button. Simply begging for it in chat isnt helpful because people dont have time to look for your base during all the chaos..
- Protect those online and nearby first, offline People are only attacked half the times.
- Strong strategy: form clusters of 4 neighbors that fully reinforce each other - arrange before start time.
Summary
- Only leave your best heroes at home.
- Reinforce others with attack heroes in the first slot (e.g., Chenko / Amadeus, then Yeonwoo, then Amane).
- Zero troops at home unless you lack protection.
- Reinforce HQ at waves 10 & 20 with the same approach.
- Check reports; if you lose twice, expel helpers. If someone you protect loses twice, recall and help someone else.
- Only heal at wave 10/20.
