If you look at the last 7 episodes (after the views per video dropped below the continuous above 10k) it looks to be pretty stable with an average of 7k each (on 27.03), we can only hope that's sufficient. 🤷♂
I enjoy that Reto always manages to find a couple niche exploits, then not only does he steer into them; he follows through on that focus all the way to the minmax extremes just to find out how hot he can make the fire burn.
You should REALLY start grabbing the items from the corpse piles! They have a higher chance of being both higher tier and higher rarity and the mountains have even better drop tables and you get 2! Gearing out your heros well is better than having some extra gold... and high-tier high-rarity stuff that you don't equip sells for more than the gold amount you get from the piles.
YEsssss, finally caught up 😭 Thank you so much for doing this series, it has been a ROUGH couple of weeks and binge-watching the playlist has made it so much easier on my mind ♥ Can always count on you to cover the most interesting games :D
Doing my part in helping this series to keep going. It has been very comforting to put this on while I'm going through a difficult time and the game is fascinating with lots of variety. Hope you at least are going to go through the end of the main campaign!
Everyday this series comes out, makes me happy. I'll keep liking and commenting everytime! Playing myself, currently on Lakeburg Night 6, and man, Ballista are literal game changers, Night 2 was rough, but since then (I added a couple of Ballista to each side) I have been steamrolling the enemies right out of the Mist, so I've had multiple massive Corpse Piles each night. It helps that my Longbow user has received +3 Action Points from Level Ups, and is wearing a +1 Action Point Trinket. He do be kinda cracked. Also loving the Execute trait, it is so damn handy for when you constantly leave enemies on super low HP. I use the Leaping Omen (imo, the best Omen so far, will probably always have it with me.) so I can jump into a group of enemies with low HP and just kill them all for free. Great when you have someone with a Wand for Magic Missile, to leave multiple enemies on super low HP.
The elites have a higher chance of becoming elite corpse piles the closer they die to the Haven. I do not know the real percentage, but if I were to give an estimate it would be something like: Dead inside Haven (City) 100% chance. Dead 1 tile outside Haven (Next to walls) 90% chance. Dead 2 tiles outside Haven 80% chance. Dead 3 tiles outside Haven 60% chance. Etc Possible 5% drop anywhere on the map, but I can't remember if I ever got any piles further than 5 tiles from the Haven. I always try to slow elites and kill them as close to the Haven as possible.
im surprised you dont rate propagate, it allows you to double dip and even triple dip on poison. id bet a druid staff/orb mana build would be catastrophic to hoards and retain ability to focus isolated.

16 more ballista still to put down! Your base will be impenetrable! It'll be handy for whatever the boss is here, since it'll mean you can just focus on it/specials and let the defences do the work on the rest.
Would be crushed to see the series go. The is so much fun. Don't undervalue human ballista! 1 perk for 2 Action points worth of scaling direct attacks is a *steal*. Last time it didn't see much use since your only hero with it was always retreating behind walls (a good thing, since she buffed the static defenses so much!), but this time your teams are typically within 6 tiles of a few enemies at the end of the enemy movement.
Amazing game, I got it and it's WAY harder than you make it seem. Luckily I made it through Glenwall, but I lost a hero in the boss fight. Top tier gameplay, sir!
i've noticed on one or two occasions i've gotten elite corpses that i was able to scavenge, but it certainly seems more often than not, you don't get elite corpses.
Youre not getting the elite carrion because theres a zoning mechanic to corpse drops. Basically theres a couple hidden tiers based on how far away from the base the enemy dies. The closer to the walls(or even inside the haven for maximum bonuses)when the enemy dies, the higher percentage chance for higher quality corpse drops. Elite carrion ofc can only drop from elites but is also still pretty rare, they basically have to be killed right in front of your walls to have any realistic chance of getting it to drop outside some insane luck(im not even sure they can drop too far out). there are some strategies where people will build up wall defenses early and purposely let enemies come up and attack the walls before killing them, just to generate higher quality corpses. Not by any means the 'definitive' meta strategy but it is a viable one. Woulda been too risky imo to chance it with those energetic elites though.
It's based on the number of enemies killed on a tile and proximity to the haven center. Also any tile can spawn an elite carrion if you get lucky, I had a single runner sneak up to my magic circle and got an elite drop from it.
So far, in my own playthroughs, the thing I loathe the most is a wave full of explody boys. Had an elite one with a 30% resist aura at one point. How the heck do you deal with that?
Seams to be that these videos seam to get no traction as they're released, but over the 24 hours yesterdays video has caught up in views. I wonder if the longer videos like this just do better outside working hours?

It is really sad that this series isn't getting the love it deserves. I absolutely love watching you play the game
Look at this engagement your comment is getting! (I'm hoping this will help!!)
If you look at the last 7 episodes (after the views per video dropped below the continuous above 10k) it looks to be pretty stable with an average of 7k each (on 27.03), we can only hope that's sufficient. 🤷♂
This series needs all the love it can get. Love the tactical approach and Reto spin on this game
We can only do our best to watch, comment, and like and hope that helps
I enjoy that Reto always manages to find a couple niche exploits, then not only does he steer into them; he follows through on that focus all the way to the minmax extremes just to find out how hot he can make the fire burn.
May God continue to hear my prayers for more🙏🙏🙏
"And I...will see you next time"
*me instantly clicking onto this video to keep watching and giving love to this series*
Heres hoping this series has a long, prosperous life
Long live the series.
Yes for algorithms sake
I need more eyes on this. I want to see you reach all the bosses.
You should REALLY start grabbing the items from the corpse piles! They have a higher chance of being both higher tier and higher rarity and the mountains have even better drop tables and you get 2! Gearing out your heros well is better than having some extra gold... and high-tier high-rarity stuff that you don't equip sells for more than the gold amount you get from the piles.
I like the way this town's squad has shaped up, hope you're able to hold down the fort and fight off the last few waves! Best of luck! :D
YEsssss, finally caught up 😭 Thank you so much for doing this series, it has been a ROUGH couple of weeks and binge-watching the playlist has made it so much easier on my mind ♥ Can always count on you to cover the most interesting games :D
Definitely my favorite series by far thanks for keeping it going for so long retro!
Another great episode! We got 2 nights with this one. Always fun to see a powerful hero go on a tear through the Clawers.
May the comments flow until the Last Spell is finally cast!
May the comments flow my friend ✌🏽
I remember watching the game in its demo and it's improved so much. Thank you for showing this off!
Sucks that algorithms suck, but I can see your sticking it out for the people who do actually enjoy this. 👊 thanks bruhtater

YES, another 1,5 h of delight and fun =). Thx retromation. I love the series very much!

I'm loving this series. I really hope you can continue it.
The eps just dont stop coming !
I really really love this and hope we can get at least to the end of this town. It's such a great series!

Keep going! The end of this one and the next map have a step up in difficulty!
Love the series and wish we could see more
Pretty stoked to see how you do against the boss for this map
This one seems to be picking up even more traction than the last one.
I literally pulled an allnight and watched the entre series... Please dont drop It. It has been a blast
Commenting to continue the series
Enjoyable episode as always!

Have to come support the playthrough. Finished my first run of Glendale yesterday. Pulled out a surprising win before the horde overcame everything
Man, when you really build those heroes right, they become real beasts!
The unexpected video! Glad to see it, commenting to show support.
Been loving the series.
Comments for the algorithm!
Let's go happy to see more 🎉
Love the series!

Woo it's still going!
16 more ballista still to put down! Your base will be impenetrable! It'll be handy for whatever the boss is here, since it'll mean you can just focus on it/specials and let the defences do the work on the rest.
Happy to see another episode

Haven't made it to this boss yet and I'm so curious to see it. Fingers crossed the series maintains momentum because I'm loving the series still
might not have the wide appeal of some of the shortform, but seems many (including me) really love this series :D
Liked the video just to make sure he keeps the series alive
Love the series!! Keep it up!
OMG! Another episode!
I adore this series. I hope it persists for awhile yet!
Ooooh, blessed with another episode! Most excellent!
Yas! I'm on time again. Hype :)
Loving this series
Let’s keep this series going!
Fantastic, super scary but you're definitely up to the challenge!
Doin my part to continue the series! Love the content Reto!
Amazing game, I got it and it's WAY harder than you make it seem. Luckily I made it through Glenwall, but I lost a hero in the boss fight. Top tier gameplay, sir!
Thank you Reto for onether couple of nights!
Saved this episode for later, what a good series!
Its back!
Just what the doctor ordered after coming home from work. Nice!
Hoping the series lives on better than the horde!
Enjoying this series so far!
That Elite with a double move could definitely reach and hit your character, but decided not to. Sometimes this game is generous =)
And that would definitely be a kill! Fleur had 54 armor and 88 health.
Thanks for continuing ❤
Still enjoying the series!
Support all the way!
Commenting and liking to help continue this amazing series
Love watching you fight the horde
Wow, extra long stuff to enjoy. Hope so much that we can finish this tooown :O
Here to contribute to the wish of continueing this series. :)
Dude you are so good at this game!
i've noticed on one or two occasions i've gotten elite corpses that i was able to scavenge, but it certainly seems more often than not, you don't get elite corpses.
id love to see more!
This might be late but scavange mountains/piles of corpses for items when you have them
I thought it was gonna be a painfull night from the title and lengh, but reto just steamrolled through it lol
thank you!
this series is so good
Great episode!
Special bones is when an elite dies in your base.
I'm really enjoying this. I shake my fist at the people not watching.
Keep it going Reto!
I have nothing important to say this is just for engagement cause id like to see more.
Keep it up Reto!

The elites get rough. I had one with 158 block show up and nearly ruin a night.
Strong work!
Love this series
always hyped for this
It's Very interresting How strong the meta progression are, ( allmost?)seems like retro Just got stronger than the dificulty curve
Thanks a lot!
Mmmmm, more ballista
Guys lets start a chat in the comments, like... Jus say: Hey, whats your name?That kinda os stuff. So the youtube understand how good this series is.
Much love, let the comments flow
Word of the day: I-SO-LA-TION
Yay another ep!

Did they buff melee? Even if yes it still feels worse then ranged. Still would have liked to see double melee play
support love
Well, I can't do much more than like, comment, and subscribe. But I can definitely donate my watch time today.
Agreed Whole Heatedly!!!
