Legendary / Mythical Without Paying?

[DamageInc.]

Is it even possible? I think I have a few legendaries but there are ones that just seem on a whole different level, Sheggra, Carnex, that one that creates all of the skulls (can't think of his name) for example. Are these cards you can only get from the VIP chests?

[Mickmane]

I got War (mythical from start) from a plain old Glory Chest, from a key I got in PvP Tier rewards.

I got Sheggra, Carnex, Bone Dragon (I guess you mean him?) from non-VIP chests too. (Don't remember which, but I don't have access to VIP chests.)

I guess that makes me feel a little better that it is at least possible.

I'll verify that I haven't yet spent any money on the game and I have received a few high value troops. IIRC they all came after buying some gem chests with my accumulated gems. I recently got War and Summer Imp from those. Don't recall which others ATM.

I've actually earnestly earned everyone of my troops (that being all 201 of them ftm) without paying a cent. Finally completed my collection last week and am already saving up keys for the next Mythic release.

I've gotten all of my legendaries (still missing a couple) from glory chests, but it takes a LONG time with the RNG.

I recently started a little video series to see how long it will take for a (nearly 100% free) player to get a mythic. 7th video is just done, if you want to check it out i post the link down below

until now i got no mythic but some really nice pulls like sheggra, crimson bat and queen mab and many more

most of the keys i use are glory keys (about 1500) and some gem keys (200 from guild rewards)

Level 233, just got Tankbot 2000 in a glory chest last night after I posted :)

I've pulled 2 wars from glory chests already..

Also: You can also buy the weekly legendaries for a fairly cheap price of 500 glory each.
And you can turn them into a mythic by buying 6 of their chests, which costs 3,000 glory total.
Completely doable for a free to play player, either by saving up, or simply earning the glory (again, I am one such player).

You can do the same with epic chests, 400 glory for the epic, 2,400 glory to turn into a legendary. 4,000 glory for it's mythic (6,400 glory total probably not worth it).

Or ultra rares, 300 glory for the ultra rare, 1,800 glory to turn it into an epic, 3,000 glory to turn it into a legendary (4,800 glory total so far), and 7,500 glory to mythic (12,300 glory total. these last two probably not worth it).

On a side note, buying multiple of these chests is very worthwhile, the 5,000 gold per chest helps you level kingdoms faster, and they include minor traitstones (which you will run out of), and the arcane traitstones that you will absolutely need for epics / legendaries. As well as some keys.

@Moridin I don't understand what you mean by "2,400 glory to turn it into a legendary". Is that just the cost to upgrade the cards to the next rank?

[Moridin63]

When you buy a *weekly glory chest reward in shop, or click from news*, at it's listed value you get the card, keys, traitstones, gold.

With any card, you need 1 of that card, +5 more to turn it into a card of the next rank. To Ascend it. Ascension tab.
Another +10 to ascend it again, then +25 to ascend it again, then +50 to ascend it again, and don't know what the last requirement is.

So, even a common turns into a mythic once you get enough copies of it.

Mythic max level is 20, legendary max level is 19, epic max level is 18, ultra-rare is 17, rare is 16, common is 15.

Each ascension also increases hp and/or armor and or/ attack of a card (not magic).


Personally I think ascending everything to mythic is very worthwhile, as that will make a card more viable if there happens to be a good team combination you can use it in, whereas the souls you get from destroying cards is pretty limited. Even the base mythic War only gives 150 souls. Which you could get in 1 map lol.
