This thread is for guides for different things in GoT:A. If you want to link directly to a specific post you can click on or copy the post link from the time stamps (e.g. Jun 13, 2013 8:23am) in the upper left of each specific post. # Sharing Boss Battles that have already started:Often enough people in the Kongregate chat ask for help retrieving battle links for boss battles that have already begun but need more help from other players.

People get a bit lost with the process since it requires at least one point in the Geekery talent. Here is a guide on how it works for Kong and whatever that other site is that people play GoTA on. The images are in Chrome on Windows XP but the process is identical in Firefox.Method A:1. Bring up the battle that you need help on.!(Right click on an action button in the battle and click “Inspect element”. This only seems to work effectively if you have at least 1 action point available when you do this.!(slightly above the line that will come up selected is a rather lengthy line starting with “questSubmit”.

This is the line you want.!(Scroll to the right of that Inspect element source code window so you can see the end of the “questSubmit” line. Here you will see a longer number. That number is the number for the battle you’re looking at.This only works for your own battles and raven invites. Copy this number however you prefer.

(You can right click on it and choose either of the Edit options in the menu but I think it’s much smoother to just manually retype the number up top in the URL box.)!(Add that number to the boss quest link URL, replacing any existing number. Here are the examples for Kongregate and Facebook:you can share the quest and get more help with it, even if you forgot to do it before!Method B:This is basically the same as above but you can do it without opening the battle and without having any action points available at the moment.1. Right click on the battle you want to share and click “Inspect element”.!(slightly above the line that will come up selected are several lines with “actionBLAH#########” in them. Pull your number from any one of those.

They should all be the same.Raven invites:To reshare a raven invite, go into the Quests tab of your Messages. Right click on the.Assist. button of the battle you want to share and click “Inspect element”. You will see the number right on the line with questJoin.Let me know if anything could be clearer! # Adding Friends:-How to add friends in GoTA on Kongregate using three methods, with fixed link:1.Adding friends on Kongregate doesn’t work properly with GoTA and you need to wait a few days to see friends in game if you go this route.2.Find your friend on the power ranking list and press add as friend. This might take some clicking.3.To add friends in game right away:a.

Right-click in game, click inspect element.b. Now find (ctrl+f) thoriumUserID. This is your player ID number.c. Add your ID number to the link gota-www.disruptorbeam.com/play/friendrequest/(gota-www.disruptorbeam.com/play/friendrequest/)- If there is still a delay the request receiver (you) may want to try to follow up adding friend’s numbers to gota-www.disruptorbeam.com/play/friendaccept/(gota-www.disruptorbeam.com/play/friendaccept/). This step doesn’t work without a request made before.d. Post your lovely new link with your ID number in chat for everyone to add you!e. # Reducing CPU usage for slower machinesGoTA has a thing that you can live without and disabling it will decrease CPU usage by 10-15%.The background, specifically the skies and buildings.To disable the background you need to have the Adblock extension installed in Chrome which is a generally useful extension to have.1.

Find and install Adblock in the Chrome Web Store(I strongly recommend the first and most-popular result, Adblock, rather than the alternatives. This guide is written with Adblock in mind.2. Click or Right-click the Adblock icon on your toolbar and go to Options.3. Click on the Customize tab in AdBlock Options.4. Click on the Edit button next to “Manually edit your filters:”5.

Add this line:disruptorbeam.com##divid='holdingscontainer'    b. Optionally, you may not love a giant black box.     If you would prefer to have the prettiness of the full background image, add these lines:disruptorbeamcdn-01.insnw.net/images/bg-stone-.disruptorbeam.com##spanclass='maintopedge'6. Click Save and close the AdBlock options.7. Reload GoTA and enjoy!You can pause Adblock if you need to and you may want to while in the prologue. This will break the prologue tooltips and you will either have to do much of the prologue from memory (Especially remembering to check your power ranking.) or simply pause Adblock (which can be accomplished using the menu when you click on the AdBlock icon).

Don’t forget to reload after pausing and unpausing to reflect the change! # Main Volume 1 Quest Line:If you are out to reincarnate as quickly as possible, (regardless of speed bonuses from talents, equipment, or building upgrades) you should be focusing bread on the main quest line because that is the one you will be left with well after the others. # Optimizing Reincarnation:Original Guide(by retsamerol1) Aim to Reincarnate on Day 7, 14 or 21.Rationale: This is actually optimizing for gold. Reincarnation resets your daily login reward. Once you reincarnate on Day 7, it swings you back to day 1, effectively shaving off a day. Those who can reincarnate on day 7 gets to claim gold once every 6 days. Day 14 reincarnators can claim gold ever 6.5 days (on average).

Day 8, 15 and 22 reincarnations are also acceptable since you don’t lose a day on the daily rewards count.2) Village Center Brewhouse gold upgrade is a better investment than Counting House Money Chests gold upgradeRationale: Bread and mead carry over to your subsequent incarnations but silver does not. For 7 days, Money Chests are a worthwhile investment only up to level 2 (since level 3 takes 10 days to pay for itself) and for 14 days, Money Chests are only worthwhile up to level 3 (since level 4 takes 13 days and 8 hours to pay for itself). In contrast, you can take full advantage of the level 5 Brewhouse upgrade. Capacity upgrades are worthwhile though.3) Prioritize Counting House and Village Center/Fealty BuildingsRationale: They immediately provide returns that makes this incarnation easier and carry over to the next incarnation, respectively. Good place to use mead. Mystery of mortlake mansion game free online. None of the other buildings or upgrades provide direct returns.4) Once the Counting House silver bars are maxed (and money chests optimized), acquire.common.

Sworn Swords. Send as many sworn swords out on adventures as you can manage.Rationale: Multiple common sworn swords is better than a single more expensive sworn sword. This is because you don’t need to succeed most of the missions in Volume 1 in order to proceed.

When there is a pass/retry mission, just throw your most experienced and best armed Sworn Sword at the mission. Common Sworn Swords will pay for themselves much faster than other rarities, as adventure rewards do not scale to SS rarity. Try to send SS out on adventures that drop grain and fish, with grain prioritization (due to mead).5) Tackle multiple quests simultaneously in Volumes 1, 2 and 3.You’re aiming at around 3 Sworn Swords to handle Volume 1 Quests, 1 for Random Quests, 1 for Volume 2 Quests and 1 for Volume 3 Quests.

And then you want about as many as your command points can handle to send on adventures/PvP.Rationale: It’s faster to run things in parallel than in serial. Block story for pc. Switching to new chapters does not lock you out of incomplete chapters.6) Ask for help in chat and alliance for challenges immediately.Rationale: There are really useful challenge rewards, especially at the beginning of Volume 3. The top prizes aren’t usually permanent anyways, so let other people have them while you blast through challenges quickly.7) Save 25 points to spend on level 13 fealty and level 30 speed up talents.Rationale: As soon as you hit level 30, you can reduce your primary specialization in quests/adventures/PvP by 24%. Best talent for reincarnators, full stop. Fealty buildings are just nice to have for production bonuses.

Since you can’t reset your talents without paying gold (usually), it’s better to be able to take full advantage of your speed up talents as soon as you have access.Observation: 14 day reincarnations are doable without speed enhancement or bread. 7 days reincarnations require bread and every speed enhancement reduces bread consumption.8) Prioritize Bread/Mead Production, then building upgrades, then equipment crafting.Rationale: You can take Bread/Mead with you when you reincarnate.

You need bread if you want to reincarnate in 6 days. Keep stats affect all Sworn Swords whereas equipment only helps a single sworn sword. In one incarnation, I think I only crafted the decorative sword from the prologue and food.9) Go for the Obsidian Dagger in one of the early incarnationsRationale: 20/20/20 +5%, permanent provides an amazing boost to reincarnators. The hardest part is to have 400 PvP wins.

This takes more than 7 days, but can be done within 14 days once you have 20 or so Sworn Swords with the speed enhancer talents. It gets harder in your later incarnations due to the current PvP matching by power and 7 day new incarnation protection.Observation: You can get more than one Obsidian Dagger. One for your main character and one for your helpful sworn sword means that you can start off an incarnation with +40 to everything on quests.10) Consider early Baratheon incarnationRationale: Wood is required for both Bread and Mead. This building really helps with production outputs.

On the downside, you don’t end up with the Baratheon incarnation if you’re only going for 4 reincarnations, meaning you can’t get Ours is the Fury.11) Use bread on Kirth’s storyline, save some for last dayRationale: Volume 1 storylines are uneven in length. Kirth’s storyline is much longer than the others, and that should be the only storyline you spend your bread on. Since you don’t want to use more bread than you need to, it’s wise to use buffer some bread use to spend on reincaration date.12) Lower priority gold building purchases are the Smithy’s Horseshoes (5% time reduction for battle attacks), Embassy’s Foreign Diplomat (10% time reduction for spy attacks) and Market’s Exchange (15% time reduction for resource production)Rationale: Time reductions directly translate into decreased bread/mead consumption and increased production.

I don’t think Market exchange is that useful because I tend to stop making mead after a while and can produce enough grain and fish to keep up, but I suspect hardcore players might be able to make use of it. I haven’t done the math.13) Consider buying the Direwolf PatriarchRationale: same as above.

But also to support the developers.:)14) Play a lotRationale: self-explanatory. Also we needed another member for the party so that we don’t have an unlucky number. # Useful links:.Adventure Details:.Everything you might want to know about the details for every adventure can be found in this Google Doc:Wiki:.Guide:.equipment discussion on DB forums:.info on a lot of different things in the game:.Breakdown:.message spam.Beginner’s FAQ.http://www.kongregate.com/forums/265-game-of-thrones-ascent/topics/355404-quick-q-a-for-beginners(http://www.kongregate.com/forums/265-game-of-thrones-ascent/topics/355404-quick-q-a-for-beginners).Drop rates for Dragon Hunters.The following “drop-rates” are not the actual drop rates.

know, the icons in alliance challenges are not the correct action type, in fact the action types in alliance challenges don’t even change for the different parts.

# Sharing Boss Battles that have already started: Often enough people in the Kongregate chat ask for help retrieving battle links for boss battles that have already begun but need more help from other players. People get a bit lost with the process since it requires at least one point in the Geekery talent.

Here is a guide on how it works for Kong and whatever that other site is that people play GoTA on. The images are in Chrome on Windows XP.but the process is identical in Firefox.First of all, big thanks for your work! Already helped me a lot, but I think my Geekery talent is not high enough. ^^ I can find it as you described on Chrome but I do not like Chrome (FF for life!). But what comes up on FF when you “Inspect element” looks so much different and no matter which tab I activated the search never found “questSubmit”.

If anyone with a higher Geekery level could help out here, it would be much appreciated.Edit:.After some searching around I installed the Firebug add-on for my FF and oh happy days, no more switching to chrome only to grab the number. Thought I share that for people that might have had trouble like I had. Have a nice day!:).
