Welcome to 'Almost Free to Play' channel, thank you for tuning in!
As the name of the channel suggests, this channel is going to show games, mostly from FREE TO PLAY perspective. I intend to show games played for free without any major investments or mass in-game purchases. Along the way, you can expect tons of guides (again) from the view of a free to play player and some useful tip and tricks. I hope you'll enjoy browsing this channel! Thank you for your support and see you soon!
As a 5 years F2P player this my advice 1 - Save your gems for vip until you reach lvl 16 for 10% healing cost, and 2 blue materials chest, and only spend Gems in MTG event and use the kvk for farming lvl 3 Gems . 2 - start saving your universal sculptures for siege commanders, they are op, even if you have 1 march siege . 3 - craft blue gathering gear for your farms all 4 of them, it gave you 20% load and 10% gathering speed. . 4 - creat at least 2 farm accounts, so you can farm RSS during kvks, while your main account for farming Gems only
Thank you for the advice!! I'll keep these in mind! The journey to VIP 16 will be a long one I believe!! I'll possibly wait with creating farm accounts as even 1 account is quite a handful! Thank you again!!
@@almostfreetoplay Remember farming Gems only in kvks, Last kvk i gathered around 100K Gems. The trick is to have a 100k troops per march and keep your eyes open every time a march finish gathering, don't let it go home, just search for Gems pit close to it and send it there to farm again. . Vip 15 is great, but if you want to fight you have to get vip 16. . You a literally will be a farmer for the first 2 years 😅, but lucky for you siege commanders are here, even with T4 and mediocre gear you still gonna do great.
At first glance he is definitely not OP, I would have to give him a go at respect level 3 (at least). If the absolute damage orientated dominance would change in the game, I think Azog could shine!
@@almostfreetoplay Thank you! I am so happy with the update - I did not have to waste Lurtz respect items and use universal respect items to Ascend Ughták - I love Uruk-Hai so now I am waiting for two days to be able to use mathom vouchers to get Ughták to Respect 10!
It might be a bug because you suppose to get 3 chests every day +2 chests if you craft a ring etc... What do you see on the daily tasks screen? Is it blank? If so, it might worth to contact support!
I understand that the event is very underwhelming,just wait for this week update...many skill changes and also a new commander will drop with the new fall event
Do you mean the factions at the very beginning of the video? You have to 'pre-choose' your faction before the server starts if you want to start at a preferable point on the map. You can choose only one faction though! If you do not choose before the server starts, you will get to choose what left, which will be only factions not already full.
@@almostfreetoplay Yes, how can I choose the groups at the beginning of the video? When I choose the server, it only allows me to choose the dwarf race, the elf race and the human race.
Diplomacy > whales. If you can gather 3 fellowships against a full p2w fellowship you can still win. Assuming you do have some low/ medium spenders as well.
Will you play age of empires mobile when it comes out in October? It's like rise of kingdoms but looks better and is new, so you could make better content about it
I like AoE but I'm already playing way too many games!! 😂 We will see! The problem is that I usually resist to start a new game for years, yet years after they release, I usually join!! (see Rise of Kingdoms). Age of Empires is very tempting.....
@@almostfreetoplay oh the keys aren't the issue bcz the best commanders are in a total separate chest which comes much later. But as you probably noticed there are sculptures of various levels and the general legendary sculpture is the one you shouldn't use on any commander you can get in your current season. Except you want to spend lots of money later. Bcz if you just farm them then you can use them later on your desired commander
@@almostfreetoplay worth investing is aethelfled(?) for farming barbs, sun tsu is also nice as beginner commander and lohar bcz he gives you more exp for beating barbs. Maybe watch videos from chisgulgaming and omniarch
@@almostfreetoplay yes of course if you get the commander specific statues like from Caesar you can use them, bcz there's no recycling system like in rise to war. But the non-specific legendaries you should save for later. Bcz there's a huge power creep in this game.
Just started playing this game 3 days ago. Good to see your gameplay, i learn a lot. I got a question though. Does it matter which commander you put as "leader" when making an army or is just that i get to see his face when my army is walking?
Yes, I'm probably a bit too enthusiastic about everything in the game with very limited knowledge about commanders! Thank you for the good wishes, I think I'll going to carry on playing the game!! If you could choose 2 heroes from my newly pulled ones, which ones would those be? Do you have any strong hero recommendation?
Well said! Angmar was always a bit like Rhun, usually nobody wanted to play there but this has changed a bit in the last few seasons and Angmar is seemingly getting more and more popular! Nowadays, Gundabad became the most abandoned faction in the game!
Hi, thank you for supporting the channel! I've collected these commanders since the beginning of the game! I've had some lucky pulls, many with the daily free Mathom chests! Sadly, my mythic commanders are on very low respect levels though!
Since DD commanders are the meta a good strategy to loose fewer troops is to farm tiles with "round 1 or 2" commanders like cestaro, wk, undy or lurtz. The fastest you deal damage at the beginning the less troops u loose.
Yes, they are good damage commanders, unfortunately I don't have (at least respect 2) Cestaro and The Undying but I do use WK and Lurtz! I wish I could ascend Lurtz to mythic level, he would be absolutely deadly! Thank you for watching the video!!
i think you should wait for the event chest that you can select your commanders! might be a tad bit less disappointed next time cause you know what you can expect. just a thought
No, the chests were opened during the usual 'Rebuilding Glory' season. BTW I haven't seen anything else for way too long, the only available season to start is Rebuilding Glory...sadly
I couldn't find the list of countries anywhere but on they website they have a list of their offices worldwide: United States, China, Canada, Japan, South Korea, Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia, Brazil, Turkey, Italy and Spain. This might be the list of the countries the game has already been released! +the UK Only on iOS for now
No I didn't! I want to save my Mathoms for an event where I can get hero respect items! It was a good deal but I first want to get my heroes respect up a bit more! (aslo there wasn't any 'pity' counter for guaranteed mythic hero)
@@tony_gyr I'm not sure about covering PBE but to be fair, I was quite critical about 2.0 so I really should, who knows, I'd might be able to pass on some of my suggestions!!
Now I feel bad, I'm not only wasted your time by posting the video with animations enabled but the video had also triggered a response and made you to post a comment wasting more of your time! What a cruel world we live in! I
