During the event ive been testing multiple strategies to see wich one was better for each character, but then i suddenly found one single strategy that works for every single character and stage, because it gives you everything you need to win, damage, and survivability. Here it is:

So there is an universal key to every single stage normal/hard for every character, the single item that will make you win every single round: fairy dragon, stack fairy dragons, try to reach the last boss on each stage with at least 4 or 3 fairy dragons(5 if possible), and focus on accumulating fire or haste, the fairy dragons heal 4 times more based on the number of fire points the enemy has, and they heal everytime they attack, if you accumulate fire and haste, you will be imortal and at the same time deal a lot of damage, since they do a lot of damage by itself + the fire extra, for the starting gear, either choose prime flame, or thunderbolt spike, both of them work perfectly with the fairy dragon, if you choose to play with prime flame, you can also buy a lot of whips and leather gloves to continuously gain haste with the fairy dragons.

But since fairies and dragons are expensive, you will need to do something during the stage:

• Accumulate piggy banks: you will need to have at least 4 or 5 piggy banks till round 6 or 7, dont buy more than 6 of them, its unnecessary. Piggy banks give you 1 extra coin per round victory, so when you accumulate them you get a lot of extra coins. Also do this: when you start the stage, try to get the piggy bank as one of the 4 first items available in the shop, if they dont appear, restart the stage as much times needed until they appear, then buy them along with the other necessary items to pass the first round.

• Buy 1 Combat hammer: When you put a combat hammer near a piggy bank, the hammer will break the piggy bank on the next round and give you 4 coins, which you can sell and gain 4 coins to use on the shop, youre only able to break 1 piggy bank per round so you will need to follow this strategy: get the piggy bank as soon as possible on the run, you will need to do a little math, each stage has 12 rounds, lets suppose youre in round 6, and have 5 piggy banks, dont break them yet, pass the round without breaking them and reach round 7, when youre going from round 7 to 8, put the hammer near the piggy bank to break it when you win round 7 and go to 8, then keep breaking them till round 12, understood why? You were in round 7, and had 5 piggy banks, 7+5=12, so by the end of the run you will have used all the piggy banks the right way, if you dont break them, they will still keep giving you 1 coin per round, but when you break them, they will give you 4 extra coins + the 1 extra coins from the piggy banks that were not broken yet. If you have only 4 piggy banks, just start breaking them on round 8, because 8+4=12, got it?.

• Extra (Not necessary): Reroll sale card, and Shop vip card, KNOW HOW TO USE THEM, each reroll sale card gives you 2 free rerolls on the round shop, so you dont need to spend coins to reroll the shop if it doesnt have an item you want. For the Shop vip card, they improve the chance of a higher rarity item to appear, which is good because dragon is an epic item, and fairy its a rare item. Focus on getting fairies first, because they are more propense to appear since they are only rare, not epic, and Costs cheaper. Then focus on getting the dragons by rerolling the shop with the free reroll card, and improve the chances of it appearing with the shop vip card.

Extra tips:

• By round 11 or 12, sell all the armor you have and use the coins to get more dragons, leather gloves, or whips if possible, you wont need block since the fairy dragons will give you an absurd amount of heal, so focus on accumulating fire or haste(leather gloves or whips)

• On the last round(12) of the stage, sell all your shop vip cards and free reroll cards to get extra coins, you wont need them since its the last round, and they only benefit you on the next round when you have them equipped. Then focus to buy more dragons or haste to your fairy dragons.

EXTRA TIP FOR STAGE 7(LAST STAGE):

The last boss(round 12) from stage 7 is imortal, which means you dont need to kill him, just survive 30 seconds, so when you reach round 12, sell ALL your weapons and armor that dont help either inflicting fire points, or giving haste to the fairy dragons, and use this extra coins to try to get more dragons or items that give haste to the fairy dragons, which you will need to have at least 3 fairy dragons, 4 is good, 5 or 6 fairy dragons is perfect.

Thats pretty much all, this strategy works for EVERY character, on EVERY difficulty (normal and hard), so, this whole strategy can be summarized in: accumulate fairy dragons, inflict as much fire as possible, gets more haste as possible, because they heal each time they attack.

I Think thats everything, thanks for reading. The strategy works 100% of the time if you do it right.

Kind of a noob question, but is there a way to quickly use up energy (for quests)?
Aside from the usual Quick Expeditions.
