Energon Shockwave is a sharpshooter – to the best of my knowledge

[GrimLockdown]

That is a gem, i.e. one of those in the top right corner

[GrimLockdown]

@noahlot The only reason to unlock Scorponok is to get the full Enslavers squad

[GrimLockdown]

@voltronpig Get Omega Supreme. He is much better than Volcanicus. Then, Menasor is much better than Omega Supreme.

[GrimLockdown]

I think the falling towers do no damage to Combiners and Gestalt squads (and their prime pass variants). The missiles do either no damage or minimal damage. The balloon pigs might do some damage. If you don’t see the hearts then there’s no damage.

The most important use of any TFs EMP accessory is to disable flying pigs (and to a certain extent WMTs).

[GrimLockdown]

@noahlot Yes. I tested Devastator with all the four arm slot accessories in the Challenge run and a bit surprisingly Ravage was the best.

If I remember correctly the EMP effect (of Kremzeek) was too weak to be effective.

[GrimLockdown]

My recommendations: Ravage and Megatron

[GrimLockdown]

This seems to be still relevant:

PSA: Do NOT use Omega Supreme’s Sunglasses accessory or Volcanicus’s Monocle accessory. They both are buggy and make the TF to seriously underperform.

[GrimLockdown]

I think that I first tested both Laserbeak (acid rounds) and Beastbox (explosive force) and then ended up with Beastbox.

[GrimLockdown]

At least overpowering Neon Soundwave worked flawlessly. And now Neon Soundwave can kill WMTs with ease – and complete a Spark Run.

[GrimLockdown]

Beware of Laserbeak accessory in the token exchange❗️ If you buy it nothing happens – except that you just lost 1,500 tokens (or up to 750 gems)❗️

[GrimLockdown]

Hmmm, one TF from worst squad, poison blocks, minus blocks and Elite pigs with no energonicon and the daily target is TNT blocks 😱
On an event with lots of extra TNT blocks 🤷🏼‍♂️

[GrimLockdown]

@noahlot Yes. And he’s probably the worst TF in Energized Squad.

[GrimLockdown]

The bonus squad is Leaders (32), consisting of Dark Megatron (75), Grey Slam Grimlock (85), Bludgeon (93) and Sentinel Prime (105).

These TFs from Leaders and Energon Shockwave (78) from Energized squad are in the exchange with accessories.

Have fun and good luck!

PS. The numbers (in parenthesis) after TF and squad names are their respective Spark Run rankings.

Previous event in which Leaders was the bonus squad.

[GrimLockdown]

Day 3 – Let’s break a million! 💪🏼

@deindiaan I also got my highest ever score (this without Unicron; after promotion less than 100k though):

[GrimLockdown]

Yeah, I also got quite a many runs with Unicron 👍🏼

[GrimLockdown]

Every other week the Spark Run cost is coins and the other week pigs.

[GrimLockdown]

It has been my intention to update the list here but either I haven’t got the time or I haven’t remembered 🤷🏼‍♂️

But in my new event posts there are always up–to–date info.

[GrimLockdown]

@noahlot A new just started and it started with Sharktihog day and now Rovio/Exient has found those missing sharktihogs

[GrimLockdown]

@noahlot Rodimus have been quite good in this current event because he has trouble breaking black minus blocks 😬

[GrimLockdown]

@tahtorak Ranks are based on very few runs and missiles were (are) less dangerous than flying pigs for which Ramjet is a bit helpless

[GrimLockdown]

I would probably get Blurr

[GrimLockdown]

@voltronpig Warpath. After Warpath it’s kind of toss between Greenlight and Drag Strip.
