Obvious bot aside, your AI is terrible if you think plarium would change a design based on strong community feedback. 😂

I have the roster and gear for it but I just can't be bothered to go hard in the paint for this with the time crunch in the game right now, just doesn't seem fun

It's just incredibly tedious right now.

Ogres are not my strongest faction, and Ogryn Level 7 is the first Wall for me.  I can easily get to the Boss, but the Boss is totally wrecking me. Seems like I will need to regear an entire team just to pass it, let alone get 3 stars.  Not doing that today.

Maybe I need to finally build a couple of Maneaters? Might be able to get that to work.  Has anyone tried that?

I got walled here as well. I could make it to the boss and get killed from champs that cant single target. I got close with one xomp but it was 15+ minutes to get to the boss and didnt bother trying anymore after that.

I thought about building a second maneater as well to just keep block debuffs up for the boss but not wasting time right now. 

Ogryn is def a weak faction for me, but even looking through the index they just suck overall. Hey we get another dwarf nuke though this month.

This thread has become the go-to spot for all discussions related to Faction Wars Hard, so I retitled it accordingly.

I poison with urogrim and stokk (a1) after urogrim 

Was easy on alt, had stokk booked

Main, i had gurgoh to one shot waves basically.   He died at boss but I barely made it thru

I did ogryn 7 with tanky champs with enough res to not get feared


Broke my streak though, couldn't get the UH boss down in under 100 turns. Just ran outta time.

My kingdon for a Siphi!

Was nasty for them.  I dont think the boss is too difficult or anything.  I just think Ogryn pool is bad for it.

I cheated with Graazur.  Inc Res buff + extend is big cheats.

I have still never pulled a Urogrim.  He is the only Epic Toon that has never graced my account with a visit.
(Not counting Djamarsa since I have not done referral accounts).

I was thinking I might need to pull Stokk from the portal, but I will probably try building a pair of Maneaters first.    

....and of course you have Gurgoh.

Just wanted to chime in about FW Hard Bosses. The Orc one that does Full Team Heal (with Adds that have almost 1 million hp) and does True Fear, Provoke and also 30% Freeze chance when hit is absolute cancer BS. Oh and it wipes out your Turn Meter (Equalizes to the Lowest TM on the Team). OH and Taunt I believe.

Rakka is my only Block Debuffs and since there's a 1 turn gap, it's a eventuality that the CCs will start and never stop. 

I'm fine with the Freeze Chance if it was paired with True Fear OR Provoke on the kit, not both. Also no clue why the adds are so damn hard to kill. I swear they have way more HP than the adds in most fights.

Every other boss has been managable and yeah, if I get a 700 Resist build going on my Rakka I might be ok, but that is a Void Leggo so I gotta imagine this is way harder for a lot of other players with similar accounts...

TBH, I got through it on the first try; but the champs I used have all been built and rebuilt for end stages of sin city.  They all had enough res.


Only 1*'d it though, the boss killed one of my champs and then died from brimstone, I could have healed or rez'ed the champ on my next turn, too. Shame you can't do a regroup like in clash

Just cramming this in here rather than start a new thread or dig back to find a more relevant one;


I just complete the first ever clear of Sin City in my cluster!

High Five!

I have a handful of peeps in my Clan that do it regularly, but I never want to take the time to do the regearing needed for a few of the stages in the back of Hard Soulcross...and also the time to do the multiple reruns needed for stun set rng to wotk in my favor.

For now, I happily took one star on that level. 

I have no Block Debuffs Orc and the only Orc Cleanser I have is a totally unbuilt Merouka who has a single target cleanse on a 3-turn CD.

I used Seer as the lead for the Res Aura and found that the toons I had with 350-400 Res were able to Resist the Boss enough of the time to get the win.

I tried Seer but I only recently got her so I guess the gear isn't good enough. However I switched up the order of Rakka's abilities, didn't start with Block Debuffs until her 2nd turn and got it down. Varl was the MVP on the boss and Artak shined on the waves. But yeah, that's what I'm saying about the difficulty of this particular boss being insane. Meanwhile almost everyone has Armanz and he makes the Barb Boss a cakewalk

Yes.  That is why I have more patience for it in Hard FW than in Sintranos, where you have to do it every rotation....but it still should not be for only a 4 star glyph, especially after the first boss is behind me.    

Agreed.  It's what, like stage 15 it swaps to only 5 and 6*?

Hoping just to get past 14 at this point.  Some of my factions are extremely weak. Mostly a gearing issue but need to check portal for some help also.

Yes.  L15 in all factions is the target!

Check your reserve vault where you hide all your S Tiers that you dont build.
