I know! but i didnt when i made this video and then someone like you was nice enough to tell me. Thanks im going to pin your comment so everyone sees it. Appreciate it Ash!
2 things you should have mentioned 1. That the glory rewards are not only great to get the traitstones, but also to get that troop to mythic. Especially the one in the video, Fist of Zorn, a skull converter with empowered, I bought her up to mythic when she was in the glory shop and got a bundle of traitstones. I actually do that every week whether the troop is good or not. Keeps my traitstone stash full and gets another troop to mythic each week. Glory is one of the most renewable resources in the game, so smart to spend there. And 2. That crafting traitstones isnt really the best idea since celestial are hardest to get and it takes 2 celestial to craft one arcane. 2!! And to craft celestial takes even rarer jewels. Both celestial traitstones and jewels are very hard to replenish once spent. I myself made the mistake, when I first unlocked the soulforge, of crafting some needed arcanes and used up my celestials and I'm still regretting that, I'm still behind on celestials. Just a couple points that I noticed the video would have benefitted from.
There is a similar fast way to do it. Necromancer class (2nd trait unlocked & Mana Source + Reaper Talent unlocked), all Undead troops, Scythe (Morthani's e.g.; Creeping Death deals lower damage with same Magic). You start with half mana and one violett combo most likely suffices to cast the scythe killing all opponents. If one survives, there is a good chance, the appearing skulls deal with it. Sometimes 1 turn, sometimes 2 turn wins.
Suggestion for a minor tweak to improve your farming/Explore team: You should re-order the troops so that Fire Bombs are in the first and second slots, with Sunbird in third, and your weapon/hero last. Fire Bombs are then meat shields for your first two turns. What I mean is if the enemy matches skulls in their first 2 turns, they'll hit Fire Bombs and not Sunbird. Helps a bit b/c Sunbird's damage depends on life. Not a big deal, of course, but easy enough to reorder your troops to optimize. And Fire Bombs won't mana block Sunbird either b/c Fire Bombs start with full mana (once traited obv). Let me know if you're aware of a better reason to keep the order you're currently using.
Also I think that Crypt banner is better than Abyssal, because Crypt gives Red++ (instead of Purple++). Sunbird creates a Firestorm (red) when an ally dies (when Fire Bombs die), so better to have Red++ than Purple++.
yea im like used to the troops being a certain buttons so i can watch something while i farm! you may have a point...sounds right...ill have to try it out
Everyone recommends this team which is fully mythic. When you actually get this team there common and rare. How do you get them to mythic if you're just starting? I'm using that team it does way to quick and my Sunbird and Rowanne are lvl 17-18 (max they can go atm).
Sledge paw was super useful at one point if you didn't have Vash. And of course pre wand curse or bane of mercy. I used it a lot when I first got hki...wow. Fiat of Zorn as glory. Lol
Just a small correction to this vid Sinney, War and Peace is a weapon that you get from completing out the quest line for Khaziel, not from leveling your traits.
Another explore team I use is doomed blade or crimson bat, princess elspeth, 2 x penguin. Penguin and elspeth must have 3rd trait and use blue++ banner. Not as good for early game players as yours but I find it's slightly quicker in end game
hey mate :) this is the most annoying part of the game..i wonder why the devs did the arcane traitstones drop chance so so so small...Maybe they did that just to buy those traitstone packs with real money..but no thank you. Thats why my kingdoms are still in 2-4 stars because i dont have the traitstones for many troops and i am level 1100 already. So, farming for months, years .
hey im right there with ya. never spent a dime on the game....just now got my stars decent like a few weeks ago...you will get there i have faith in ya....but yea they did make the drop chance wacky
Walter i have several "best soul farming team" videos. Its about time i make another one but if you want one now type that into the search bar on my channel. Ill try to get you a link and make a new one. Dont worry about the membership i appreciate the though and i hope you go back to work soon!
I see the Sunbird, 2x Firebomb team recommended everywhere for traitstone farming, but this simply does not work for me. I have them all fully traited, but casting a Firebomb never fills my Sunbird, even 2x will only occasionally fill it. But even if it does, Sunbird will only take off maybe half the life of the opponents. Then they retaliate, which lowers Sunbird's life, meaning a 2nd cast is even weaker than the first one. After that, i'm left with no FBs and it's back to matching gems to power up a weakened Sunbird. Does this only work once they're fully leveled, with all Kingdoms to 10 and various other really long term performance goals? Because I'm not quite that powered up yet. Is that the problem?
It could very well be the problem but let me check a couple things first. Have you tried using a +2 red banner for the mana fill problem? The damage problem can sometimes be fixed by the clean up troop maybe try rowanne? It should be going like this for you in a worst case scenario: look for extra turns, cast firebomb, enemy turn, look for extra turns, firebomb, enemy turn, cast sunbird, enemy turn, cast clean up troop, enemy dead. Another thing you should do is try firebomb, firebomb, sunbird, rowanne/hero. This will protect the sunbird a couple turns longer and maybe with a banner and clean up troop change this will work for you now. You are right that this gets easier and faster depending on level but you should be able to figure out something to get u by. THX FOR WATCHING! Hoping this helps
@@SinnycoolGames I'm trying my Sentinel hero (starting Barrier) in first slot, at least he can take multiple hits before impacting Sunbird and is stronger than my Rowanne. I am using ++Red banner, yes. but otherwise, yeah it works out more like how you described just there -- look for extra turns, cast, look for extra, cast, take hits, try to hit back, etc. It's not much faster than my normal teams, but at least that explains why I'm not wrecking with this Bird/Bomb team the way people seem to always describe it. Not leveled enough to work as advertised! Cheers, thanks.
@@SinnycoolGames I tried War and Peace, might look at some of my other "hit everyone" weapons, haven't tested those yet. Good idea on trying the Bombs up top, they shouldn't block mana to Firebird because they start at full anyway. Thanks!
Ok so you blow up your bombs which gets your sunbird up you cast the bird and if your low level you may have to do it twice or clean up with hero. Its one of those things that gets better the higher level you are. Make sure you do like divinion fields on easiest challenge on normal so enemy stats are as low as possible too.

You can just press up in the ascension tab and click on the traitstone and it’ll tell you where to get it from

That's great to know because being colour blind I have an awful time figuring out what they heck ones they are.

May not matter for you, b/c your troops are high level. But for people that aren't as high, the re-ordering I'm suggesting is a little better imo.
Also I think that Crypt banner is better than Abyssal, because Crypt gives Red++ (instead of Purple++). Sunbird creates a Firestorm (red) when an ally dies (when Fire Bombs die), so better to have Red++ than Purple++.
thats a good idea ima give it a try
yea im like used to the troops being a certain buttons so i can watch something while i farm! you may have a point...sounds right...ill have to try it out
yea could be...im just not used to it mattering but to optimize and for lower level people this may be better. Thanks dude!!

If you want to a faster team switch war and peace to forest Guardian with 3 traits, if you wanr to upgrade the class's champion level use this team.
old video but thank you
Just a small correction to this vid Sinney, War and Peace is a weapon that you get from completing out the quest line for Khaziel, not from leveling your traits.
Cool even easier to get then. Thx for pointing this out for me
Still useful! Thanks again man!✌️
No problem 👍
3:07 "Rise from the asses"! You're welcome.
Great vid.... good info. Much appreciated.
Thx man. Appreciated
Another explore team I use is doomed blade or crimson bat, princess elspeth, 2 x penguin. Penguin and elspeth must have 3rd trait and use blue++ banner. Not as good for early game players as yours but I find it's slightly quicker in end game
hmm im going to try this! thanks Sam
@@SinnycoolGames If using doomed blade use a hero class that starts 50% mana. 90% of the time the AI doesn't get a turn.
Wow nice!
@@SinnycoolGames let me know what you think
2022 and this team still works a treat 👍👍
AWESOME
Thanks for the advice could you do a video on PETS what's best to use .
Of course buddy I already have it written down that is next up!
Thx! Super helpful!
np thanks for watching!!
It’s weird this video being useful to me now 😂
whoohoo

The drop rate goes up with explore level. Maybe not drop rate but the quicker u get to mythic boss battle, cuz boss battle is guaranteed traitstone.
SinnyCool can you make a maximum souls team. Love what you're doing . membership as soon as I go back to work😞

What weapon? Try putting the firebombs up front they will just blow up any way so if they can save that barrier another turn even better
@@SinnycoolGames I tried War and Peace, might look at some of my other "hit everyone" weapons, haven't tested those yet. Good idea on trying the Bombs up top, they shouldn't block mana to Firebird because they start at full anyway. Thanks!
Right! @half_a_kman 2-3 comments down told me about firebombs up front. I give credit where due :) it works great
CEO of not looking at the screen
haha thanks. saw this going around on twitch today on someones channel
This team doesn't work for me. Haven't won a single explore with it traitef and everything. What am I doing wrong
Ok so you blow up your bombs which gets your sunbird up you cast the bird and if your low level you may have to do it twice or clean up with hero. Its one of those things that gets better the higher level you are. Make sure you do like divinion fields on easiest challenge on normal so enemy stats are as low as possible too.
I just ascended my FIre Bomb and now I can only have one on the team? Anyone know why this is happening?
yea you used all your copies to make it stronger. make sure to keep this in mind with troops you need more than 1 of
Higher chance the higher difficulty you go btw
