3-Minion Strat, looking for advice (in General)


Suqataqus July 7 2008 1:53 PM EDT

Alright, after being dragged back down to earth in my last thread, I'm looking for some tips on shifting my strategy from Evasion / Tank+Halidon / PL Wall to a mage based strategy.

My current XP split is:
8.2m on Evasion Minion
21.3m on Tank minion
40.5m on PL Wall minion
and the tattoo is just over 1.3m

My understanding currently is that for a 3-minion strategy, the evasion and PL wall still work well for the front and back, but I'm open-minded for other suggestions.

My current plan is either EF + CoC mage, IF + SG Mage, or EF + SG Mage. Since this relies on reaching melee, I believe keeping my PL wall as the largest minion would be to my advantage, since it provides over 3.2m health and a 500k PL currently.

Currently, EF + SG is what I'm thinking of, but I would like any input from those who have a bit more experience than I do with mage setups.

Yes, i would keep the wall in place.
My understanding is that with an SG mage + EF, your going to have some trouble surviving till melee.
I would go SF+ SG mage.

Alright, so SF and SG on the mage. However, once my evasion is significantly higher, enough to eliminate the threat of ranged damage, should I re-ink to EF/SG, hopefully killing 1-2 minions per round starting at round 6?

I think that would depend entirely on how effective the SF/SG combo is working for you. If you don't like your fight list or the SF just isn't allowing you to beat teams that you feel you should be beating then re-ink it.

I like the idea of SF to start though.
