My thoughts so far on the Ursoth's Assault Event

[Energizeric]

Worst build ever.

I'd say it's not a bad build for Helena, but not very effective against the other bosses like Ursoth. This seems more like a build you would use for crowd control in the tombs, and with heal you are trying to eliminate the need to use pots. To make it more effective, I'd switch our fire for frost which seems to work very well on those vines. And lastly, I'd get rid of the 5/5. You only need 5/5 on time shift. For Frost I'd use 4/5 (no ice sheet), 4/5 for shield (no bump back), and 2/5 on heal.

Problem is, I haven't really played AL since its first cap so I still only a l15 and a l16 and at those low levels there aren't a whole lot of mages and rogues who know what to do. Instead it always ends up being a game full of newbies.
I do see what you mean about the infinite vines, that is a major issue. I'm used to PL's targeting system where you tap who you want to attack but in AL you attack whatever's in front of you which is usually the vines. If there weren't so many vines then it wouldn't make Helena seem to take as long.
I didn't know that about ursoth, like I said before I haven't found him yet and was just going by what I had heard from people.

u r lvl16? wow cool. just buy the new sets its cheap. and solo all the way to gold. it is very easy.

and in sl and pl, one can aim at any enemy by tapping on the desired enemy and auto firing makes DPSers more power .
a war doesn't need Ward as it is pointless lol. since he heals massive then boss does dmg at this level . only mage and rogue needs wars to kite.

Ursoth is a big troll and very slow. he summons herond at 50% HP and 25% HP.
he drops Elocks and little bear egg. and gives 23points.

yep I agree. ice is more useful then fire. since fire doesn't stun vines so no CC it does unlike ice that freeze for 6sesc.
it also works well at ursoth as we all know ice has highest overall dmg (due to its DoT).

ideal build islow lvls)
ice: 3/5 (except 20% charged AoE and ice patch)
timeshift: 4/5
shield :4/5
heal: 2/5
and some in str to boost shield

Hi all,

You may know me as being a PL player, but I have recently got into playing Arcane Legends, due to the current event.

I personally am starting to feel like getting gold tier will be impossible. I have a few reasons why. Firstly, I do not get many friends coming online for me to do runs with, getting to gold. Secondly, I have been pug running lately due to this lack of friends online, and I have been faced with Helena. We killed Ursoth without too much trouble, but Helena just won't go down.

Due to the fact that I can't kill Helena, I am giving up on getting dovabear at gold tier. We definitely need a Helena nerf if I have any chance of getting to gold tier, or more friends online so I don't have to rely on other people. Anyone who would like to do some runs with me feel free to add my level 26, my username is Skeletonlord.

Then we get to the energy system. This system allows for 3 uses a day.

So, my only criticism is that i am worried about not getting to gold tier, and dovabear won't be available anymore, and the fact that i don't get many people online to play with.

Hello i am a player that got gold tier on the first day. Add me if u ever need help killing helena i will help if i have energy.

Add me Ig at Ralchoir I'm l26 rogue and I'll see how much I can help ya

I'm sure an endgame warrior can make gold tier with regular daily play. Sometimes a boss drops a random energy point, and sometimes you can craft an energy kit with three energy essences. Even though I have had bad luck with other people leaving PUGs when the boss is Helena, I am at silver about 1/3rd of the way to gold.

Helena is nonsense. She does not reward commesurate with the effort it takes to beat her. Good luck running in PUGs because they often skip Helena. I always stay until last.

Skel, I have a rogue L24 so if you message me I will switch to her and help you with Helena or Ursoth.

I'm lvl 40. I just tanked and killed Helena in about 5 minutes with a lvl 41 Mage, lvl 38 rogue, and lvl 37 warrior lulz.

I keep seeing the term "PUG". What does it mean? Its not a term used in PL.

[Skeletonlord]

Wow, overwhelmed with responses! Thanks all! I'll reply to you all tomorrow! Night here!

Sure the term PUG is used in PL, but possibly not among your acquaintances. It is the abbreviation for pick-up group. In PL you get into a PUG by entering through the Magic Portals. Otherwise, you join games by the Join screen and those are not PUGs.

[aquascaper]

Worst build ever.

I have worse (fire, shield, heal, gale all 5/5). Waiting for the free respec lol. No plat to spend.

In the 3 years that I've played, not once have I seen the term PUG used. But I also don't use the portals and haven't met a single person who does so maybe it is used and I just haven't seen it.

[Snakespeare]

How do you do? You have now met a person who uses the portals.

Anyhow, the use of the term PUG originated in PL. I've been playing PL for 4+ years.

lol surprising. u r from PL nd dnt know this term.
its originated from PL bro. also other mmorps also use this term.

in pl ppl dnt like pugging in Victoria lap so they give passwords.

[Skeletonlord]

Joining games via the "join game" sceen creates PUG parties too. Any group you form with people you don't know is called PUG.

Sorry for complete off-topic.

really i hate helena on low lvls 24-32

because on that lvls mage or warior cant solo helena ( idk about rogue)

lvl 24-32 hard to farm essences keep farming hours for 1-2 kit, than joining random maps and when ppls see Helena they are leaveing or leeching... my energy kits going for nothing on helena and mostly helena comeing...

on solo or 2 player runs mostly boss reseting after waste 10 min its another story... idk why Stg choice do a painfull boss like that.. on lvl 41 helena easy but on 24_32 its almost imposible ( on random teams)

Agree, helena and ursoth hits harder on lvl26 than lvl41.
