Been playing HoC the whole week, practically non-stop.
Current progress:
Flameborn: Stuck on Mission 10
Hellspawn: Stuck on Mission 10
Avalon: Stuck on Mission... 4(!?)
To get the rage out of the way first, I will start by saying this much.
The odds of this game are bullshit.
- I attempted hundreds of times to complete either mission 10, with no success. Even with odds of: 17 v. 12
- I personally think the card packs are overpriced, considering I spent 3 days doing Mission 9 (Flameborn), in order to get 15,000 essence. (Had to take breaks, mind you, I'm in college.) Just to get 5 cards that you most likely already have enough of.
- The enemies in all storylines are over powered. Avalon Mission 4... I see people have beaten it, but I keep questioning, with rage, "HOW." So maybe Avalon is underpowered? I know there are different play styles for each faction: Dragons = Charge, Demons = Weaken/Kill, Avalon = Buff/Kill
!! Before people comment, I would like to also mention that I am a veteran player, and have been playing ever since this game came out. So yes, I know all about the mana and how to obtain the most, quickly.

Now that I got all that off my chest, can someone help me with Mission 4 - Avalon?
It's ridiculous. I can go as far as disabling 1 outpost, but the turn after, I am overpowered until the time runs out. Even with summoning 2 units per turn, and having them all in a defensive position on the tiles.
- Note: I try to keep my deck around 40 cards, to keep the ratios more stable. Especially with starting units, since you get a free unit, and your Herald. About 20% of those cards are low drops. So I can summon 1 on my first turn, before moving. But the more better cards I have are: Terror Blade. Yeah. Just 2 of him.
Lastly, I see people have like, the super dragons, or 5 star rarity cards. How do you obtain those? Random cardpack pull? I dislike buying the gold related packs... Considering I have had like, 157 GCash for the past 2 years. (Dislike spending money)...
