@archerbob - if you're talking about PvP, then it's because of enemy Charmer. (pink fairy) - it causes a unit to fight your own team between 2sec to 4 sec. Charmer will always go for the highest power hero, it sounds good on paper but it gets countered easily by making the tank your highest power hero.

@Fabdlnltc - that badge is earning medals. (the stuff you use to earn the daily quests) and that's just your cumulative total.

I think I need a Walkthough for these badges. Been playing the game for multiple hours during 3 days, and still don't understand them,
WTH means "Gen 1 - Become a Generalissimus! - Best so far: 16525"?

OMG!!! Longest. Easy Badge. Ever. I hope this isn't a fundamental change in the time it takes to get an easy badge, and just a mixup (ie added an extra zero to the target score). Easy badges usually were earned in 5-15 minutes. -Pip

I finally got the Hero Material Badge (BOTD) and it only took me 8.5 HOURS! Pursuing this BOTD was the worst mistake of my life, but I didn't want to give up. It should have been a hard badge at least. Get out of here with this garbage BOTD decision. There are plenty of actual easy badges to choose from. Even the medium badge High Power Squad Badge would be a better choice. That would be 15 bonus points instead of 5 and that one took me 3.5 hours to earn. Still too long for a medium badge, but WAY better than 8.5 hours for an easy badge. By the way, pro tip: don't be afraid to use your portals on high level fights. You get 100 badges for each of them if used at the beginning.

I just got stunlocked in a fight with an archer who was shooting my healer who healed faster than that archer could damage her. And my archer was standing still. That was the most boring minute of my life. There should be an option to end a fight. Or a free (no banner!) fast forward option. Or the ability to turn on walking while fighting.

I'm happy that the rogue event restarted. It makes it really easy to get some quick medals. The first battles are over in seconds. In the time it took me to write this comment, I won over 10 fights.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
for the ones complaining about medals. Raiding the main campaign is just one source. Other sources: upgrading buildings, arena, collecting resource. As a trick what you can do is do the event and progress as far as you can, then repeat AND lose battle the best raid event (since this progress doesn't reset when you click 'new raid'). When you have the desired gold amount upgrade your non-gold building first if you can then upgrade the gold buildings. And when you hit the limit, new raid and rinse and repeat.

Why did you decide that "Hero Material Badge" is an easy badge? It takes many hours and multiple "new raid" restarts to earn 10,000 medals.
"Brutal Training Badge" (500 medals) and "Worthy Badge" (2000 medals) come before it. Don't those take long enough to become BOTD?
Friday's BOTD was "Goblin Slayer Badge". Really easy. Just 10 raid fights. Then "Kingdom Defender Badge" (20 fights) and "Ogre Before It Started Badge" (50 fights), which I also got. Either of those could be an easy badge for today. Actually today's easy badge should be just as easy as friday's since not everyone who plays today played friday and it's dumb if those people have to earn friday's BOTD along the way to earning today's BOTD since they would have wasted those points. Instead this challenge is harder than getting the medium badge "High Power Squad Badge" for 1 million squad power.

Oh cool, lost a fight to rng, retried it and won, and got a "Hey, you did a hard fight, rate us 5 stars!" ... yeah, no, if I hadn't one-starred this p2w game earlier this week, that'd 5-star beg alone would have made me do it -- five stars is for an amazing game, which this ain't.

is there a way to fix the "archer" so he shoots melee enemies when they come close to you? It's a pain when I have to watch last enemy charmed unable to harm archer, and archer fully charged and doesn't do anything, no running away, no shooting, just waiting for defeat, even funnier when priest spawns skeletons and mob focuses skeletons... so it's 5s+ of archer afking lol

For those who haven't see it yet, they added a speed up button in the top-right corner of the battle screen before you start the fight. 3 chevrons is the max. It also looks like the battle can run even faster if you make the window lose focus. It would've saved me a lot of time yesterday had I known this sooner.

Either add interactivity in fights like in Swords and Souls or allow us to fast forward the fights during the fight for free like in most idle games.

I reset the raid multiple times to redo battles 1-20 until I got enough character cards to recruit more party members. Rinse and repeat until I could do battle 30, 40, etc. just from using the gold for winning battles to power up. The rogue limited event was very helpful with getting money and hero cards too. Still, it's quite grindy and I did it while watching a show in another window.

You might as well reset the raid at one point since you can't upgrade many stats without enough crystals. On the other hand, you'll have way more gold than you need after upgrading the buildings a bunch of times and doing something else in the meantime while you wait for the gold to be generated. So you might as well reset when the fights get too difficult. Then play a bit, upgrade buildings somewhat, start the game later to collect gold, upgrade buildings and wait, etc. until you can upgrade your characters all the way and beat the easy fights while doing something else in the meantime (2 windows side by side so it keeps playing). That way you can get this BOTD. Otherwise it's gonna take longer and longer to get the medals since fights take longer and upgrades are fewer.

I you try to upgrade something and a popup appears with a "deal" and you are willing to buy it, don't. Cancel the popup and a 50% off deal appears. Still don't buy it though. Spend money on better games.

It costs money to be able to speed up the slow battles. So the developer is purposely making the game worse to try to get more money. Besides of course it being a game with microtransactions, which incentivizes the developers to make the game excruciatingly grindy unless you pay.

"Hero Material" is the star medal with the purple tails. You get it every time you win but you ALSO get it every time you upgrade or reupgrade a unit level or a building level, PLUS every time you grab a building generated resource. So to get today's badge of the day you need to run to the wall on a raid, upgrading everything as you go as much as you can, then let the raid go mentally and reset it, then upgrade and push, reset, upgrade and push, reset, on and on. It is theoretically possible to do this in a day, it will just take hours and not be fun to have to do.

hero material badge, How is it classified as easy along with 2 other less tedious badge that required the same points but way lesser amount?

For the medals, don't forget that resetting the raid doesn't reset the event raids. So after resetting, all your heroes are back at lv1 with cheap upgrade prices, but the drops from the event raid are still as high as they were before the reset, so you can quickly farm medals through upgrades instead of battles.

just some advice: maybe post more later
if you do restart raid i know it sounds scary but luckly the blue diamonds you wont need them to re level up the heroes on the levels you allready got. instead its coins. also your castles you bought it does say reset but that means level 1. so you still initially have them. itel also save progress on how many times you leveled them up so if you going for 500 level ups for the blue diamonnds and you were at 300. well now u can pay for them cheaper again. the restart isnt really that bad. you also can get new heroes faster. the time skip is also very useful. i would get to about level 50 on the rogues or whatever side raid it is. just get some where high but also like around level 90 then reset. well if you make it to 50 then use 1 portal to skip u get a LOTTa gold and can essentially re level up all your troops. just some things i found. probably more later. fun game 5/5 stars from me

To BoTDers:
There is a "New Raid" button, introduced somewhere down the line. If you're so close to the Hero Material badge, but stagnating, click the "New Raid" button. It doesn't have a cooldown or anything, so you can click it every time you get stuck, or even every time you lose, feel like you're gonna lose or just aren't winning fast enough for your liking. But: if you're like, 5000 medals away, I urge you to just give up, the shiny ain't worth it.
P.S. it is safe to use portals when doing this; you get medals as if you beat the levels you skipped. But be smart about this; skip the later levels on each reset, not the earlier ones.
P.S.S. The tutorial is B.S., your Fairy should not be 0 speed at the back. She can fight, and she should. Just make sure that if anyone gets overwhelmed, it's not her.

I wouldn't get shiny kongranion because of this "easy" badge. I think BOTD should be obtainable in one one day wihout this pain.

It took me about 2 hours to earn the Brutal Training Badge. Tomorrow's BOTD Hero Material Badge requires 5 times as much.

Don't play this game too long in a row. It wasn't made for that. Play for like half an hour and come back 50 minutes later to claim the gold in the market and upgrade your characters a lot and then play another half hour if you want. Until you run out of gems of course, so you can't increase a skill's level anymore. Then you're stuck until you pay or slowly earn gems through quests, which you won't be able to get anymore since you'll not be strong enough to beat any raids since you can't upgrade without gems. The paywall probably hits before Sunday's BOTD, which takes HOURS to beat. That's enough time for levels to get exponentially more difficult. So much for an "easy" badge. Good thing I can just play Crush Crush to get my 5th BOTD for a shiny Penvelope.

Enjoying this game more then I'd expected. I'd agree with other comments for quality, and wish it was easier to earn crystals as well

Need to save heroes for normal assaults, because annoying to put everyone in place after missions.
Need a better way to have more diamons.
Need a surrender button on battles.

Note: you also get Hero Material from more than just raid fights, Upgrade castles and Get, upgrade and evolve hero's, might help to reset to new raid often to reset raid, castles and hero upgrades.
