Hansel is really a pwar based build so u get more plunder per osf hit. In eb/war, probably not the best build but not bad
(/).-) I'm not even a Hansel build, but I can tell you how to use it. In RW, just use the ally bonuses (you should have enough bonuses that you can win) to beat bigger players. Almost NOBODY looks at allies before they attack. If yiu end up getting stripped, just drop the troop building and go Pure Spy
If your online you just pin your troops and your dtw with full spies, how's that not an advantage, have you ever had to scout away a hansels remaining spies? It's a right royal pain in the arse!!!
Depends on what eb you do, I make double in eb over pwar, but anyway your builds should be designed to withstand a real war, not how much plunder you make, If more players paid attention to this there'd be 50% less people bitching in forums over getting hit a couple of times.
Some of you are absolutely wrong about the haunting. I made almost 7 bil one haunting. With no crystals. Do the math. Mixed builds do fantastic because I also get paid for the spy actions. As for hansel in war you better have a solid ally base. Those plunder war built hansels with one ally would straight up get wrecked. True talk.
Hansels do just about as well in EBs as attack builds. All the assassinating they do makes the bonus they get at the end of a successful EB usually higher than an attack build's.
In a 16hr time span I made 21bil doing the haunting with no crystals. There is no way I could do that in a pw
As far as a hansel build goes, it is a devastating build to have if done correctly. I so far have only ever seen one done the right way with a truly strong ally base. People don't realize it will take trillions in allies for a hansel to compete with a t4 build
Please stop the ignorance in this thread... What this guy means is the EB's that *he* has done don't pay *him* as well as PW. Find the right one for you and you will make more, GUARANTEED. To the Chamber, etc are great for noobs, evanescence is not bad for intermediate players, and if you're big, you'll never make more than haunting b2b. All that being said, rw is where it's at
Says who? In the haunting I make lots of money, and in PW before I decided to build SOSs head on no saving up I made epic money too. in real war Im not a real hansel, Im a spy who exploits hansel ability, I self-pin using troops and steal away. Hansels are still a #1 build.
A hansel that uses ATT pots or has enough allies and uses assassinations can make as much or more in haunting than in pwar. However most hansels don't have the ally stats to make it work. That is why you are seeing the return of hybrid build. I think the best eb moneymaker is a combination of 7 elementals and the rest guilds
Author failed right at the title of the thread. I noticed it while looking for something else and couldnt resist not to respond... PvE did not kill hansel build and in fact it's better now! I make more gold in eb haunting than hitting an HLBC Tax Free osf! My advice is to work towards getting enough attack bonus from allies to be able to hit without using any pots so u gain pure profit, and whats very important, with minimum troop loss, meaning u still get your 26 hits in per unload. I know it's easier said than done (since u will need around 30-35m att bonus to achieve) but having a goal to reach is fun and entertainingGood luck to all budding spy builds n have fun
Hybrid build is pretty good in epics, great in system wars and awesome in non system wars! My build just kicks ass!* *serious ally bonuses needed too.*
