On the mobile version of Monster Train can you get boosts in exchange for shards like you can on PlayStation?

Sorry if a dumb question but on my PS5 when playing with covenant enabled I can choose boosts like extra $ in exchange for shards but I don’t see that option on the mobile version for iPhone.

Dragon clan run with Boss Artifacts Red, Red, Blue, Blue, Yellow

This was the only time I have ever achieved it.

The run was also perfect. Ended with the maximum life possible. I think it was also as you go perfect if I remember right, only losing life in the final battle and continually healing it up.

Pincushion at 87/87

Test Subject Alpha + Multiattack + Twisted Back is still crazy

I had to kill most of my own Twisted Assistants with my own Pyreballs to get them to die.

I believe my base was 190/150 after getting all the boss artifacts.

Discussion How to structure/approach learning mt2.

7 Upvotes

Basically title, I've got wins up to cov6 using one of the really stupid strong pyres, but now I'm kinda stuck, especially since I'm trying to use something a bit more basic for my pyre. The amount of pyre and clan combinations is making the game a bit overwhelming for me. Any advice on how to learn the game in a digestible way as someone who already knows a bit? I can handle cov4-5 and play a lot of STS, so the really basic ideas aren't my issue.

What did you do in your path to approaching the game? Rotate between clan/pyre combos, or grind one up to 10? Something in between? What guides and resources would be let me learn this game without being totally exhaustive? Maybe a guide for a particular clan combo?

Apologies, this has probably been asked before, and there are definitely guides out there. I'm more wondering how to approach learning the game in an effective way.

Discussion Are OG champions considered weaker than MT2 ones?

22 Upvotes

I just unlocked the OG champions and after having beaten all 25 covenants in MT1 prior to this I definitely feel like MT2 champions feel much stronger. I know that the clans were adjusted for MT2 to fit the strength level more but I also read complaints from last year that OG clans just feel weaker, the game was balanced more around the new champions. Has there been any changes/updates to that or are they still considered worse besides a few exceptions?

A few other consumes I didn't get to remove

This entire run felt like a bye. Not one battle was even remotely challenging.

Awoken Rail Spike drew 4-8 cards each turn, and reduced all the spells in the deck to 0 cost, so I was playing 10+ cards per turn, see Rage Mermaid.

This deck generated, on average, a strength 6 potion every turn. Usually, Reanimate then Spikes then Regen. Completely overkill. These potions never fired. Both my front liners had 20+ reanimate on them each battle. Neither front liner ever fell after the first battle.

Between Meathook with Dualism and Horrify with Spellchain, flying bosses tended to have stun 10+ permanently and they never got turns.

Between Drain with Dualism and some Sap Potions, even 3x titans were stuck with 0 attack at the same time. I left the top floor titan alone and I perma stunned the one that changes floors.

Most bosses would get 6 mutes on them in addition to the one on the first turn for free, so their abilities never did anything.

Rage Mermaid + Double Strike + Frost Piercer with 300+ attack is brutal. You don't even need Dualism or Rage Potions to get numbers like this when you are casting 10+ spells a turn.

The titan sentry got It's Alive casted on it far more times than it was even hit. Total overkill.

All I would have wished for was about 5 more removes from the deck.

When you have the Blights cost 0 artifact and Awoken Rail Spike and you get that -4 cost event, it's like angels start singing. This run is probably the only run where the stars aligned that way for me. Usually I just get -2 cost on it which is like -3 cost since I don't have to draw the Blight.

It was funny watching the Icy Cliophyte + Quick + Twisted Back try to keep up in rage and fail miserably against just the innate ability of the Rage Mermaid and 10+ casts a turn.

Exactly 1 enemy got through to my base, so the run wasn't perfect. Had I drawn a clutch Horrify on the turn I needed it, it would have been a perfect run. The titans did 0 damage to my train in total between Mutes + Drains + Stuns.

Would someone please do the right thing and take this guy around the back and, erm, you know...

He has to be the least competent MT'er on youtube I have ever seen.

Has like 8 embers worth of deployable units, and takes space. Always removes a train steward in the 1st shop. Massively overvalues Eternal Kinstone etc. Does things like Doublestack Holdover on Divinity. Restarts 1,000,000 times even worse than blast-from-the-past Never Nathaniel.

Please go onto his channel and tell him to give up completely or give him some tips. I did try but got banned by him.

He sucks!

Help figuring out what’s going on.

7 Upvotes

My runs been going smooth, just copying nameless siren (quick and red crown) with a beefy tank in front. I just saw this weird reaction and I can’t figure out what’s going on. Trying to use replicator on the second nameless siren for some reason kills it, where as the first just loses its item as it’s supposed to. To be clear, I’ve gotten this far by replicating the new generated siren over and over on previous floors and this is the first time I’ve seen it die if I replicate it. I only have 5 units on the floor, the one that dies is holding shield of Wyngh (if that’s relevant) none of my artifacts should cause this, what’s going on?

I keep losing but it's really good

I wonder what champion i should use though, I'm really indecisive.

Do you usually switch champions every run or do you have a main one?

Discussion Is Monster Train 2 THAT challenging?

18 Upvotes

I find myself struggling to complete any run succesfully. If the two enemy boss pops up I'm completely fucked. And the final boss kicks my ass constantly too. I didn't have much trouble on MT1 but I can't go pass Covenant 1 on MT2. I have all the clans and understand the main mechanics of the game, but I can't progress, I feel like it's too hard.

Do I suck that hard?
