Dark Towers

Dark Tower

The Dark Tower is a mini-game within the game.  You are granted 5 battle grants which are used to 'summon' your advisor who will 'give' you troops to use against the Dark Towers.

You know nothing of the troop content of the tower, only the power rating so it is impossible to know which of the selection of troops provided will win the day.

It is highly improbable that one will defeat each tower with only a single attack - in fact, the advisor and message as much as say so.  Therefore, you will have to purchase rubies in order to make it past the third of five towers.  Each battle grant will cost 25 rubies (times a minimum of two attacks per: 3 towers x 2 battle grants x 25 rubies = 150 rubies - minimum) 

Battle Grants can be found in Fortuna Chance however its rare for them to appear and its hard to get them due they are limited to one spot. Also you can obtain Battle Grants for beating the towers so good luck. Whenever this event ends any left over Battle Grants will not go away so your able to save up when it returns and have better luck.                                                                                                                                                                            When defeating the the Dark Towers you get Trainable or Untrainable troops.

Sanctuary Dragon/Research Impact

Sanctuary Dragons don't effect these troops these are seperated from your main troops. Same goes with Research its just standard troop combat for these towers.

December 1-2nd event

Battle reports are not being displayed, so it is not possible to employ any strategy based on the defenders. It is also not possible to post screen captures of successful attacks, so Facebook groups or forum postings may have unreliable information on suggested attacks.

Sometimes clicking on Valaria makes the screen go blank or get shaded, then the game hangs. Refreshing and trying again is sometimes successful.

There are threads in the Kabam forums that suggest that sending attacks sometimes uses more than 1 battle grant. Players should use caution and attempt to document the number of attacks they send and compare it to the number of grants they have in inventory.

It is possible to win the mini-game despite the numerous bugs. It might still be prudent to wait for the bugs to be addressed before spending rubies to participate.
