It's been a very quiet past few days for me in the #splinterlands. I've not had much happening, so thought I'd save up a few daily quests and Orb openings and show you all in one blog.
So let's start with the DQs.... I made my way quickly through the silver leagues, which is a surprise for me as I don't usually reach gold league till about a day to go. So I picked up my first DQ in silver II:
A legendary, Lord Arianthus! These cards have become quite expensive since the introduction of the "keep your distance" rule. Put a lvl 2 LA in the tank position with a prismatic energy behind and it becomes a very useful defence against those pesky Ruler of the seas "blast" attacks. The RotS usually blasts its self to death after 2 rounds thanks to the reflect ability of those 2 monsters.
Then I flew through SILVER I and find myself in Gold III:
Nothing exciting yesterday. In fact that's probably as boring as I gets.
Then today, thanks to my lucky mene box effect (LMBE) I picked up a gold foil. I haven't had any GFs for a very long time, so was happy to see they are still out there.
I have 4 GF Flame imps now, that's enough to level up to lvl 5, where he has 2 magic hit and a speed boost, a very handy low mana card.
I find it very hard to make enough DEC when down in silver leagues to keep buying orb packs, but now I'm in GOLD III I find the Dec builds up much quicker.
So I've been busy saving my DEC and just picked up 3 more orb reward packs:
First pack - 2 EPIC Mermaid healers. A card I've actually never used, but are actually very expense. So I'll sit on these and see if they make me done money in a few months time.
BOOM!!! Would you believe it!!! Another mermaid healer.
These cards more than cover the cost of DEC needed to buy the packs. Fingers crossed my luck has changed and I'll start picking up more legendary and goldfoil cards again.
