Upsetting that task 3 y'shaarj forces you to have a full human party, it really cuts you off from even having a chance at trying it if you lack even one. If only Mercenaries had a dust-like system to craft mercs you need instead of just opening packs.
I am on task 2 of the Y'shaarj event and I as wondering if I have been misunderstanding the task's wording or if its just THAT hard, cause i am led to believe its asking me to oneshot all three 160+ health enemies in one turn which, sounds a bit much.
I ended up beating it after a few more tries. It really comes down to luck and following those few predictable plays the AI is going to make. I also beat the third one with some struggle, but overall the "strategy" is to take your time with the first boss and summon/buff your permanent minions and try to keep them alive, and also try to kill multiple bosses in the same turn, especially the octopus looking thing before the twins, because destroying it also deletes ALL minions from the opponent's board. After a few tries you learn, but yeah, bullshit fight, which is a shame because the rest of the adventure is very fu n.
I've been trying to bear the new adventure with all three teammate choices. It was pretty easy with Finley, but now i am trying with the pirate lady and its been terrible. They give you some kind of zoo druid deck for the final fight and its abysmal to beat her. Has anyone cleared it yet?
not a task bounty but any tips to fight Lokholar in altrec valley? Just trying to get to rotimer but i am stuck here.
If you got velen and anduin, you can try holy comp which will probably get you there. Or a beast comp with king krush and mukla can cheese this fight.
I havent tried it yet, but there's a possibility that if you have very strong taunt mercs (cornelius and mutanus are probably the strongest) you should be able to easily cheese this with trigore. Worth a try. Especially since its on budget.
Maybe cornelius/trigore/xyrella would be optimal and budget friendly.
i have all of those except Mukla. How would trigore cheese it? right now i am just abusing the monstrous heart treasure, is that it?
Just set trigore in the center and spam backlash while having at least one taunt. Since lokholar attacks multiple times per turn you're essentially pouring damage into him as long as you can keep cornelius up. Just get xyrella to reduce lokholar's damage whenever he's attacking, otherwise keep cornelius healthy.
You dont need monstrous heart. Just ensure that your taunt stays alive and take any treasure that increases trigore's attack.
But if I understand correctly, if you have velen and anduin, then this should be a cake walk with holy comp. Velen/Anduin/Xyrella/Cornelius are the mainstay here.
nevermind trigore strat doesnt work. lokholar swarms the field with enemies that are all faster than trigore/cornelius/xirella and smoke them. Lokholar doesnt even go down 100 health. I guess im just gonna try other stuff until i find malfurion/anduin to finish the op comps

this is probably a very dumb question so i apologize but i Really need Malfurion. Is there a way to directly aquire a merc you dont have yet, or do you just have to get lucky with pack pulls?
Having a ton of trouble with N'zoth task 3. I have never beaten Mi'da before. My current strategy is to hope to get the Assasination treasure with Kazakus or Scabb (dont have Valeera) by the time i get there, but for some reason the demon encounters on the way there keep smoking me...I see a lot of advice for the nature bros but i dont have malfurion, only guff and brukan. Any advice to deal with those encounters? and also for farming mercs in general since i might be unaware of certain tricks.
I beat it with a beast-heavy comp, which includes Chi-Ji, Anacondra, and Brightwing as the main healers, and Trigore, Niuzao, and Cornelius for offense/defense. It took me two tries, because the first time I beat it, I accidentally used the Holy healing spell from the shard in the main boss fight.
The road towards Mi'da is what I find really tough though. I hate facing those different voids along the way, especially the one that damages your Mercs for each non-Holy ability they have and grants all of those abilities 1 cooldown. Just incredibly frustrating to beat.
Genuinely the most annoying task i had to deal with (heroic probably has worse to offer but i havent tried it yet). The voids abuse your lack of holy abilities, which you are forced to have to beat the task, so it just sucks.
also, unrelated, but is there a fast way to level up mercs? my method right now is to bring low level mercs in a team without playing them vs easy high level bounties, but id love to hear if theres a more efficient method
Have you bought the training grounds? You can level 2 mercs at a time up to level 30, only takes about 2 days.
yeah i have it maxed out. it helps. honestly my main trouble right now is just having to work with unoptimal mercs. Dont have a lot of the big boys yet

that should help, thanks. , i have nefarion, sinestra and yulon but lack the healing dragons which sucks but i might give it a shot anyway if nothing else works. Here's hoping i just find the right mercs in the packs i am gonna get

Just read up, makes a lot more sense now.

can someone explain to me the appeal of mill rogue? it just sounds boring and unfun for both players and a waste of time.

NEVERMIND I JUST BEAT THE TASK WITH ILLIDAN AND KURTHUS SOMEHOW
this is probably a very dumb question so i apologize but i Really need Malfurion. Is there a way to directly aquire a merc you dont have yet, or do you just have to get lucky with pack pulls?
It's frustrating cuz I am only missing Malfurion to fill the nature comp. I wish there was a way to craft mercs instantly like hearthstone cards.
task 3 is pain :(
