It has gotten to where I only play enough to grab the apples on level 2 and stay above the demotion line. Once in a while I’ll notice it’s Monday and the leader only has 100 points or so, then I’ll get more serious.

@guava564, yes. Or “Gem vs Gem.”
@grammyk, after my cards were exhausted, including the video freebie, I was given the option to buy more cards with 60 gems. Since I was playing blind, with no idea how high my opponent was willing to go, plus the fact that would take a couple of hours to find out, that didn’t seem like a smart move.

@apprentice, points in MEBC are not awarded on an absolute basis but a relative basis. You could score 40,000 on every run but receive a variable amount of points depending on how the other players have done. If enough other players have attained additional levels because they have a new hat set and you don’t, you’re at a disadvantage.

I made it to that last DC room with 4 birds and a nearly-full lightning bolt. Still couldn’t get him into that flower, only into the valley where you have to pound him to death.

There’s no magic number. I’ve done it with far fewer gems — in a few cases I’ve even won more gems than I spent. This is mostly luck, folks.
And you get nothing but a sense of accomplishment by hitting floor 60. The jackpot used to be there but it’s on 40 now.
Buster replied to the topic Tower of Fortune in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 2 years, 1 month ago
That has happened to me too, where the game essentially froze and I had to restart. The spent gems were gone but the prizes were also gone. I was out about 4k gems on that one. A ticket to Rovio support got no response.

@nas76, Agreed. I rarely lose arena matches when I overpower the opponent with spells, regardless of our relative firepower. Extra birds are inherently more valuable than a lower number of higher-power birds.
One thing I don’t understand from your post is the relationship between the frame color and the MEBC. I play MEBC every day and I haven’t…[Read more]

I never even made it to the boss room. I played until I collected the free apples and went about my day. I don’t spend gems on DC ever since they took away the video bird. The rewards are so slim I wouldn’t buy them for 60 gems.
Buster replied to the topic Question regarding the hatchlings in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 2 years, 1 month ago
Congratulations on setting your priorities intelligently. If you’re just a casual player, forget the hatchlings and just focus on learning how to play the game better, especially the map. Maybe take a shot at the daily challenge once in a while, but don’t waste gems. MEBC is a good way to practice and build up resources.
Buster replied to the topic Daily Challenge – current difficulty in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 2 years, 1 month ago
I don’t like it when it requires uncharacteristic behavior of the components to win. Might as well play the slots.
I hope everyone gets the same DC and KPP that I did today. Easiest I’ve seen in quite some time.
Buster replied to the topic ARENA MATCH-UP CHANGES. TONS OF SPELLS FOR OPPONENT. in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 2 years, 1 month ago
Wise move. Though I usually fire off a few birds just to see if the opponent is a no-show.
Buster replied to the topic Sea Creatures Hat Adventure in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 2 years, 2 months ago
The same thing happened to me 3-4 days ago. I collected every hat but one, and only needed 370 gems to get them. It was more than enough to finish the adventure.
This happens about every third or fourth adventure, nearly always during the last few days. Often this run has come after getting the first pig very early, so I never-never quit after…[Read more]

@steelcityb, except he landed on the ledge for me and I couldn’t knock him off. On the second try I floated him away with Stella.
Buster replied to the topic Sea Creatures Hat Adventure in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 2 years, 2 months ago
Well, I was able to get level 5 finished with just 3 birds: red, blue, chuck. So I’ll just be satisfied with that unless I get a gift from TOF in the next couple of days. I won’t burn through gems just for a chest.
Buster replied to the topic Daily Challenge – current difficulty in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 2 years, 2 months ago
Right. This one used to be pretty straightforward, but no more. I made it to this room with 5 birds, plus another shortly after from the meter. Got all the stones to drop on or close to him plus direct hits from Terence, Silver, and Matilda.
Barely a scratch. I took my apples and went home.
Buster replied to the topic Any levels that has MORE apples to collect? in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 2 years, 2 months ago
@trip-h0p, except when there is a double feather frenzy going on. During those events I feed as often as possible.
Also, I notice I no longer get apples by playing rooms in KPP (unless I win the whole thing). I do usually play DC over and over until I get all the apples from the rooms. Maybe there’s maximum allowed for the DC & KPP combined?
Buster replied to the topic Daily Challenge – current difficulty in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 2 years, 2 months ago
@garethw, you can do it with Silver in one shot. Let the fan carry him above the bouncy balls, then activate him just below that small structure at the top. That will release all those little stones, which will drop and bounce around like pinballs.
Luck kicks in after that, but it’s the best chance I’ve found for one of them hitting the platform…[Read more]

Same TOF result for me too, with a pig on #2, but I paid the 20 gems and zipped all the way on FF to #11 or so without another one, collecting 2 hats along the way. If I didn’t have a video option, my strategy would have to change, but as it is I’ll always roll the dice after the first pig.
Buster replied to the topic Tower of Fortune in the forum Angry Birds 2 Forum 2 years, 2 months ago
I use these tactics for the most part, though I will always pay the 20 gems, even if card #2 is a pig. Sometimes another pig will follow in level 4, but I just watch the video, get my free hat card on #5 and quit.
One of my main goals is to collect at least 2-3 apples from TOF. Since the video option has been taken away from DC and KPP, I don’t…[Read more]

Yeah, I don’t try to outsmart the thing. Just take what they give you. When it looks like they’re being generous, pounce.
