    You can also get 4-Star Crystal shards from 3-Star Bots, so even if you don’t get what you want from Premium Crystals, you’ll still be on the way to getting them eventually.

    Only if your team only consists of Sharkticons, they'll activate their sharkticon synergy. Here's a gameplay video

    Don't waste energon on crystals again, you should save them and prioritize on getting mastery cores, health&revive kits or special deals; it's a common newbie mistake, I know that, even I make that mistake when I was new to the game. I mainly got 4* shards from Hard spotlight missions when I was new, sometimes Crystal Bounty arena but I just hate arenas in general, sometimes I got mad and forge my 3* bots, sometimes I got lucky and pulled 750 4* shards out of T3 Knight crystal. Don't worry, it'll only take you a few weeks, probably a few months until you get to "Expert" level, where you'll have a team of 4* Rank 4 bots to fully expert mode and probably a run through the easiest paths in Master to get even moar crystal shards. Now I remember how I get 4* shards at the moment. Pulling 3* bots also grants you 5% of a 4* crystal, it doesn't look good enough but you can get 10 3* crystals a month, that's already half of a 4* crystal, or around 40 thousand PBCs, there must be at least 3 3*s right?
    BTW, I'm 100% F2P and never spent energon on any deals

    It's better to use energon to buy revives and healing items that let you finish the monthly special mission on harder difficulty than what you used to. Exploring the hard difficulty will get you 1000 4* shard, that's already half of the journey toward a 4* crystal. Always try to finish the hardest path on the mission first or try to mix the hardest path with the easier path on special mission.

    Don't forget to use XP boost while doing missions to get your account leveled up quickly.

    Yeah, don’t ever buy premium bot crystals. You collect enough just playing the game.

    If you feel you must buy crystals, buy the featured ones that are on sale. You tend to get better pulls from those. But even then, you might want to hold on for something more concrete.

    Thanks for the tips. I'll try to get more 4 stars through crystal shards & forging. Is probably just a time thing. Are 2 star bots worth keeping at all? Or do you just forge them straight away?

    Tried doing special missions today, the game keeps crashing when I select rulers of kaon

    Don't do the rulers of kaon mission. it's mostly for those hardcore players that has all 4* bots maxed. You might want to do the story mission instead until 11th of July because from today until that date, there won't be any special mission for players to do beside Rulers of Kaon.

    Save your 2 stars, they are your arena combo builder.

    I didn't think of using low level bots floor arenas! I've only been playing a few days, so pure noob. I played it for a week last year but stopped after realising it was difficult to get good bots with out paying. I think it's changed a lot with these crystal shards.

    What are raids? Are they important to do? If you don't raid other people does that mean they can't raid you? Feels like a hassle

    Also I seem to get loads of gold all the time, what is it for? Can you buy Energon or anything useful?

    Once you start raiding you can be raided. If you never start it you will not be raided.
    Gold is for leveling up your bots 3, 4 and 5 stars need a lot of gold to rank and level up. Playing arenas and away missions also cost gold.

    Gold seems to be a lot and unnecessary for beginners. Once you become a vet with multiple 4* bots, your gold will become scarce really quick if you donmt usually play arenas like me

    Speaking of Raids, what was the last time energon was available in the Raid Store? Kabam seems to hate putting free energon in the raid store

    Ah, so here is the thread for this game. I have started playing a few weeks ago and am finally experimenting in raids and arena. I've tried to watch many Youtube videos for tips and tricks, but so many of them are horrible. Is there a decent (or maybe Good) Youtuber that is all about this game?
    Also, is this Fight Level even possible?

    A question on RAIDS: if ppl raid you, does that harm you?

    Here’s a video with tips for combat:


    iNightSkies is a good channel, too.


    Regarding Rulers of Kaon, a few people in our alliance family have completed it. Some others have just had people log in and beat it for them....It’s all about dancing, dodging, and getting hit at little as possible. Trying to just use pure force to or even trying to rely on blocking will eventually bring your progress to a screeching halt. See the above video, and bring those techniques to arena to practice. You’ll improve quite quickly.

    When you raid, you open yourself up to be raided. If you lose a raid, you lose medals. The lower your medal count, the easier the raids are.

    Mitch the Widowmaker is a decent YouTuber, he's a really skilled TFTF player and one of the most respected player in the community.

    KittenPrime is a personal favorite of mine, he doesn't upload serious gameplay videos, he mainly creates "comedy" skits, mostly about him pulling good bots and screaming, or getting Kabam'd and ...screaming. He stands out from the other TFTF youtubers because his content is pretty random, you will never expect what video he'll make, he created a variety of videos from a video of him duping his CW Optimus Prime and yelling, to a Harry Potter skit. Too bad he retired.

    Doc4 Strang3 is a casual TFTF player, he uploads simple rank up or gameplay videos, he has also created a video where he showcases some not so well-known bugs in this game, which is one of my favorite videos on YouTube so far

    I don't think so, it all depends on RNG, sometimes I encountered some deadly bases with duped Motormasters on Exo-filters with 1.1~1.2k medals, sometimes I faced an empty base with 1-2* bots with 1.4k+ medals. And I know a few players from top alliances with pretty terrible bases

    Nope it's all about medals. Top player with terrible bases want to drop in their medals so when it counts top rewards. It's all about game during the raidevents and those rewards gained or bought.

    Guys, I've been letting my kids play this game on my hp and now they're stuck and I have no idea how to help out! LOL!

    These are my questions:

    I) They have 2 out of 3 bots left and one KO bot. They have 0 revive kits and 0 repair kits - how do they get the kits? Do they get the kits on a daily basis like some mobile app games do?

    Or do they have to replay the chapter?

    II) How do they get higher ranked TFs? I presume the more stars, the better and the highest they have is 3-stars?

    Thanks in advance!

    1. The most common way to get repair or revive kits from free 4 hour crystal, but the drop rate is pretty low, I usually get gold or basic spark essence out of them. Kits can be randomly(?) dropped in story/spotlight/daily misisons. If you want to get those kits right away you can buy them with energon (buy the T2 revives, the T1s are garbage). I've been stuck in missions many times, I had to open arena crystals or watch ads for energon. It might take a long time, but it's satisfying to finally beat the final boss.

    2. Higher ranked TFs? You just simply rank them up with basic and class sparks. To get higher-starred bots, you just simply play Crystal Bounty arenas, Medium-Hard spotlight missions to get 3-4* bots. Sometimes FREE Premium Bot Crystals you get from missions and Alliance Events will award you 3-4* bots. I usually get 1 3* for every 15 PBCs I open. But, DO NOT spend energon on PBCs, featured bot crystals are a liiiilll biiiit better, but they're not worth it. Forging is another way to get crystal shards (for intermediate players and experts), I wouldn't recommend forging for newbies, I suggest start forging when you have at least 5 4* bots and 10 3* bots. And perhaps, the BEST feature to get crystal shards is getting moar and moar bots, just keep playing, you get tons of PBC shards and FREE PBCs, you get 3* shards from pulling 2*s, same for 3*s and 4*s. It might be slow at first, but it gets faster over time, I used to be a noob who only gets 1 4* bot every 2 months, now I can around 2-3 4* bots per month.

    I hope this helps

    Oh and uhm, I messed up. Can you replace 'you's with 'they's and 'your' with 'theirs'?

    Hey, noob question
    I raided someone today, but don't really like the whole raid thing. If I don't raid anyone else, am I still open for raiding forever?
