Lynx

It has just occurred to me that I might be wasting my valuable energy attacking Lynx invaders.

As Lynx  equipment is only for defense it would seem you have to be attacked whilst wearing it,which on the face of it seems sensible.

A lot of inforrmation would suggest that if you attack whilst wearing Lynx its useless, you should be wearing Saracen instead.

Is this another example of misinformation ?

The bonuses of the Lynx's equipment affect in any defense in case if your troops were with Hero or Hero's Double in the Lynx's equipment.

Should this statement be qualified , or is it correct as it is ?

If you are defender (as opposed to the attacker) in any combat the lynx gear bonus is in effect.

Of course it will still not let you edit the first post, and whilst writing and editing I omitted the part about.

The hero being mostly  in town and would  seem to be seldom used when collecting resources from tiles.

The original questioner was also  asking about their usefulness in other areas which are not relevant  to my own.

If you are farming a tile with your hero and you are attacked on tile your lynx gear is in effect, also if you are defending the POP.  And I usually always use my hero to farm tiles ... I wish I had a dozen of them ... lol ...

I have just read an old post where you asked much the same question.

The other player asked about reinforcing and pop which are the other not relevant items I mentioned.

I see the benefit of sending out the hero when collecting resources, but is Lynx the best gear to wear? Possibly not.

If you are being sensible and not sending out many troops to a tile, and the attacker can scout you, and send an overwhelming force. whatever the hero is wearing is  surely going to be less significant.

I think I have answered my own question, its ok to use your free energy on invaders that you dont especially want,(at the moment) otherwise dont use purchased energy.

Save it for something more useful

I do not usually wear lynx out to farm ... I sometimes wear capacity and resource yielding equipment ... I have before put on a piece or two of lynx if I didn't have any capacity or resource yielding equipment for that "spot" and was a time I could be attacked.  Also sometimes just wear the equipment I wear for hyperfarming when I am farming.

Lynx gear has been fazed out by special gear, tailored to a specific troop type.

Thanks, thats another sound reason for not wasting energy packs.

 There's  a whole new thread waiting to be started about obsolesence, particularly  in light of what is being written in the one about the latest update.

I do not believe that lynx gear is no longer applicable ... for people who buy a good amount yes there is better gear ... but for people who are not going to be spending much if anything then lynx gear is still something worth having.  And for defending your town against both spy and troop attack it is also useful (if you have a large amount of troops).

Yes that is true but you still need lynx gear to protect your town to cover your scouts and any other troop types you may have that are not covered by your special gear.
