If you’ve finished the regular game and don’t have time to grind King Pig Castle and play the final wave each time, try this team to autoplay all of King Pig Castle with birds just at standard/veteran class, medium-strength equipment, and no completed equipment sets: Lightning Bird, Veteran Druid, and Veteran Spies. Success rate: about 80% in 6-10 minutes. If it doesn’t succeed, the team either dies or gets stuck in the healing bomb loop in Wave 5, but resetting takes much less effort than playing Wave 5 through in my opinion. So far I’ve sailed through Levels 16-23, and racked up 20k+ snoutlings while barely touching my phone.

Why does this work?: Lightning Bird may be weak and have low health, but he provides TWO more possible all attacks: one from himself or one from calling on the Spies, allowing the birds to dispatch the health bombs despite Wiz Pig’s “Weaken” ability. Also, the dispelling side-effect of Lightning Bird’s attack cancels Prince Porky’s tit-for-tat buff more often than not. As you grind, it’s a good idea to reinvest in this teams’ classes and equipment, since equipment doesn’t level up, and the pigs’ health/attack increases a little faster than the birds. What has worked for me is to check the Mighty Bird Dojo regularly for the right class advancements (You’ll keep your chances high if you only buy new bird classes when you absolutely need them.), and to dump about 30 gold into the Golden Pig every time that 3x-epic drop bonus comes around.

As for the fluctuations in pay out, I think the 2x experience boost also applies to the Snoutling bounty: for King Pig Castle, about 250 at 2x, but only about 125 at 1x, which will happen after 5 attempts without resting the game (motivating me to give my poor phone a chance to cool down!).

Happy Grinding!
