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.

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

And are you talking about this thread of mine that I had posted when I had been playing for about two months?

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.
