Ok I give...I need some strat ideas... (in General)

Okay I finally think I want some advice...
This is my current team and all of my items minus one corn that is still pending...

So what can I do with this team? Should I restart a NCB with a new strat?
All constructive comments welcome ;-)

Ok, here is what I think you should do.

First, re-order your minions as follows:

Tank
Meat3
Meat1
Meat2

Second, make the following changes...

Tank: Equip with HoC and EH. Remove the BoM, it's not making any real difference.

Meat3: Equip with TSA and AoAC.

Meat1: Unlearn all Ethereal Chains and put all XP into AS.

Meat2: Unlearn all Haste and put all XP into EC.

That should definitely help.

... forgot the most important part: Find an RoS or a ToE to equip on Meat1!

"Tank: Equip with HoC and EH. Remove the BoM, it's not making any real difference."

Umm, no. BoM should stay there. the TSA can stay there too if he wants. The HoC should go on the tank though. What purpose would the EH serve? protection from.. FB? I think not, he can easily survive that because of PL.

"Meat3: Equip with TSA and AoAC. "

Why would you want an AoAC? It's a Mage wall and a PL minion.

Retraining depends on how reliant you are on your Haste, if it isn't doing much, do what he said.

He should equip the tank with the EH exactly because it minimizes FB damage. Since his PL wall would be equipped with the TSA, it would ALSO allow it to survive longer by giving it a chance to regenerate more BA before dying.

And he should equip the PL wall with the AoAC to minimize damage done to it as much as possible.

Finally, maybe the tank can keep the BoM, but it will affect his chances of hitting during ranged rounds. So it's up to him. Does he want to have more chances of hitting during ranged rounds or does he want to have more protection and deal more damage during combat rounds. It's a toss.

I'll start by saying this is not the sort of strat I like very much ;) - JKF, medium size EC, relatively small tank and reliance on ED. Nor is it the type of strat I've had much experience with, so with that in mind and without just saying try something completely different here goes :)

I'm not sure about a mid size EC, maybe it works out with the jigger and/or lets your tank hit in ranged? I would put meat 1 EC into AS, maybe 100k amf if keeping the EC on meat 2 but I think I would switch that to amf and meat 1 to 100% AS.

Ditch the PL on meat 3 and armor up, train PL on meat 2 instead.

What do you lose to / want to beat?
How well does the tank do in ranged?

meat 1: ToE instead
meat 2: Drop haste put xp in EC
meat 3: More wall AC but use TSA
Tank : TG or Beleg glove MgS if u have problem with mage
see how well your EC go after change maybe untrain AS to EC too, minions order as above or meat3 tank meat 1 meat2, With ToE and MgS your tank wont take much damge plus PL dont forget TSA give 5% each round with PL both your wall and tank will be recovering. just keep pl big enough for tank to take some damge too.
