2: incursion. If you don’t have any reliable partner, but happen to have a second mini account and an another device then solo yourself or else try to find a good timezone partner that is at the same boat as yours.
3: arenas arenas arenas. Do the first three milestones in all the arenas and you receive golds. I believe it’s close to 200k per weeks and that’s more than incursion if monthly milestone haven’t reset. Then arenas takes.... well up to 2 hours or less? All depending how much maxed rank champions you have and that’s not much to give your time up as the duration is three days so you have three days to plan ahead or spread it during those three days by doing a little for example toilet visit, lunch break, dinner break or whatever it is. Even waiting for bus home could help you kill some time by doing arena.
4: the monthly events. I think it’s actually the best place to net some golds, or I could be damn wrong. But the tile itself that you spend your energy with nets your XP and golds, the fights itself nets you Golds and one time run per chapter nets you golds and the whole thing by doing 100% nets you golds. Need patience or if you happen to have larger quantities of full energy refills then that’s good.
5: don’t sell champions as it nets you golds by duping.
6: happen to have large numbers of gold crystals? Good! Save them when kabam one day decides to release a appreciation weekend Gold, Battleship and Loyalty 20% increased boost getting release someday.
My tips: you’re better of doing incursion tips if you aren’t the arena type.
I may have missed something and I probably gets lots of disagrees from trolls, lol.
Go into Northern Expeditions .. it's 0 energy cost ... run a few tiles, a few fights, etc ...
exit, lather, rinse, repeat .. until you get how much gold you want.
problem solved.
Just move along a path ... you get gold.
fight an opponent .. you get gold ...
it may not be the most efficient .. but it IS effectively unlimited ..
Generally speaking, the issue is a lack of restraint and people ranking and levelling every new champion they get.
Case in point. This week, I took my 6* BWCV to rank 2 and maxed out both Colossus and Omega Red as 5*. I’ve still got over 12m gold. However I still have 6* Moon Knight, Korg, Beast and Howard the Duck at level 1.
I think I have to go back to arena grinding....
First, Gold is the biggest bottleneck in the game. It's easier for me to get t5b than it is for me to get the gold it takes to rank up.
1. WE SHOULD NEVER HAVE TO SELL RESOURCES TO ACQUIRE OTHER RESOURCES.
2. Incursions are solid for gold.
3. Arena is the worst. 200k for all that time spent is just idiotic. it's not 2 hours it's like 24.
4. No. If I'm doing the top difficulty on canadian. I want 2,million gold for it on the monthly side quest. That's enough to rank 5 a champion.
5. yeah, don't sell champs for the long haul players. short haul players sell away. build up your account as quickly as possible. It takes a long time to get a steady flow of champions to dupe them. That's just my philosophy. Worked for me.
6. this is opportunity cost at it's finest demonstration. People lacking in gold should always pop these things quickly. If you have a surplus n gold, save them. You really need gold to rank up champs to complete more content, to get more gold from quests.
Here's my biggest problem with Gold in the game at this time.
I have several rank up gems. 2-3 gems, 3-4 gems. 4-5 gems. I have catalysts expiring. t4cc trade in crystals just because. all because I have no gold to take up champions.
In addition, I have a plethora of 5 and 6*s at rank 1 level 1. Not even leveled up. just sitting there on the bench.
that's why it's unlimited.
Only those who do neither will have a gold issue.
We are getting a couple 5*s out of this right? and 850k gold for completing epic and Canadian this month. Lets say you get a new 5* out of that effort. And now, you're short changed about 1.2 million gold to fully rank up that champion. The game, always short changes us to encourage us to grind after we have already ground ourselves.
Edit: to capitalize the C in Canadian because Canada
Take a look at your roster, if all or most of your champs are filtered by rank up, then you're on the other end of the spectrum. But if you look at my roster, 75% of all my champions are at rank 1 level 1. that's a problem for me. I play incursions and complete the side quests, and do story modes, and I spend a little money here and there too. I don't believe the opportunity cost is there for me to Arena so i do it sparingly. Furthermore, it becomes a bigger problem, when i have the rank up gems, ISO and catalysts to take up these champs but no gold to use them while I watch them expire.
So the game should just give us everything we need when we need it?
If we increase the amount of gold that is given to us significantly, the community will then proceed to complain about the "lack of ISO", since there is now more gold than is needed to rank up champions but not enough ISO. Once you get there, people will then continue to complain about catalysts, and you have a vicious cycle of complaints.
Also, more gold would mean increasing the rate at which all players progress, and that's not a good thing.
Post your 5 and 6 stars. All of them.
