Rebel Riders


EXPEDITIONS and REBEL LEADERS







If you click on the world view on the bottom right side of your screen you will see the Rebel Leaders.  It is not hard to miss them for they are riding on horses.  The rebel leaders come in only five levels, unlike the groups.  In order to hit the next level of Rebel Leaders you will need to do research in the tower.  The Expedition and Pacification's allow for you to hit the various levels of Rebel Leaders.

In this article we will take a deep look at the rebel leader and help you as a player to understand why you would want to take down these rebels everyday.

Rebel leaders use motivation, this automatically fills up through out the day, the amount you use depends on the size of rebel leader you are trying to hit.  The lower the rebel the lower the cost it will be to hit him.  You can see the motivation bar beneath your Lords picture in world view.  There are several ways to get motivation, one being you can buy it in a package, it may drop from a treasure, or buy it from the shops.


Expeditions in this game means attacking the horses on the World Map.  So to help with the expeditions you would want to do the research for them.  They have several different research effects so be sure to read through them carefully.

Now you might be wondering why would you attack them?  Because they are a very a important part of the game for the  following reasons:


  • You gain Lord Experience.
  • The commanders you send gain Commanders Experience.
  • You gain items for crafting different Blacksmith Sets.
  • You can gain Diamonds, Resources, Speed Ups and other Consumables.
  • When you kill one your whole Alliance Gets A Gift.

There really isn't any reason to not attack them, and here is how you start.  First go to the map search system by clicking on the magnifying glass above the chat log.

When you click on it you will see the following drop down screen.  On this screen is all the things that you will need to get your daily activities done.  The last two pictures are our rebels.


As you can see you are given the choice of two different rebel leaders.  Each leader will give different types of materials needed for your blacksmith sets.  Plus each type has a different strength, some you might need only two hits when you get stronger and some level one's you might need only one.  The higher the number you go after the harder it will be to take them down.  Today we are going to take down a Level 1 Stormlands Leader.

By hitting search it will bring you to one that is nearest to you.  Once you are there, you will want to click on the leader.  The screen will open and show you information about the leader. 



One of the things you will notice is the coordinates, this is here in case you can't finish killing the leader, you can click on the icon by the star, it is the share icon, when you do that your social list will open you at that point can pick your alliance and it will put the cords into the alliance chat.

On the bottom of the Rebel you will see a line indicating how much health he has and this line switches to how much time is left before the rebel resets, as you look to the right they tell you how long it will take you to ride to this rebel.  This is helpful so that you don't send off your troops and lose the motivation if he resets before you get there.

Also shown is the list of things you can get.  It varies from rebel leader to rebel leader.  If you click the green button it will bring up another picture that talks about the items that can drop and what Blacksmith set they are good for.  This is nice so you don't have to go back into your castle to figure it out.



Below the green button is your motivation line it indicates how much you have and if you need a little more you can click on the plus button and it will show you if you have any in your inventory, if you don't it will also give you the option to buy more.

Below that are two buttons, one is Attack for a single attack on the leader the other is a Maximum Attack, this is if you decide to hit more then one time.  You will still get the speed buff if you do it all at one time or one attack at a time,  But it makes it nice that you don't have to go back to your castle and hit again.

When you decide to attack you are given a screen much like you get when you are fighting in the training ground.  You will see the rebel leader and have spaces to send your commanders up against him. 

NOTE: In a recent update the way you decide your lineup for attacking Rebel Leaders has changed. There is significantly more importance on countering than before. This refers to troop counter:




Spearmen > Cavalry;  Cavalry >Infantry;  Infantry >Spearmen
Bowman Mutual Counter



This is not just the direct counter across from the leader in the formation screen either, every commander matters. 

So for example:  When attacking a Stormland’s Insurgent which is an infantry type you want to use as many Cavalry Commanders as possible. Even if you have to replace a stronger commander with a weaker one.

NOTE:  If you are having trouble remembering what counters what check your PC to see if you have a program by windows called sticky notes.  This much like the paper ones will put a note on your screen top and you can put the information there for quick access. 

Now that we know what we are going to hit, just select your commanders and Attack.   Immediately you will see your commanders run out and towards your target.  As you see it will put a red circle around the rebel leader, this is helpful too if you are looking at one and see that circle someone else is already attacking it.  Once you hit you will see what is left and if you need to hit again.  If you killed it you will see 100% flash up on your screen.







NOTE:  IT IS NEVER GOOD TO TAKE SOMEONE ELSE'S KILL UNLESS  YOU CAN SEE NO ONE ELSE IS HITTING IT.  THIS CAN CAUSE ISSUES WITHIN YOUR ALLIANCE





If you need to hit again you will have to wait till your troops return to the castle and then the button to attack will reappear on the page.

Each rebel leader stays for two days and overlap each other, one will go and another will come.  Below is the order that the rebels appear in world along with the blacksmith sets they have material for:



Day Leader 1                              Leader 2                      Blacksmith Sets

01 Westerlands Ore Thief Stone Way Claimant Builder and Oath


02 Narrow Sea Rider                  Westerlands Ore Thief        Sunspear and Builder


03 Northern Rebel                      Narrow Sea Rider               Frost and Sunspear

04 Hedge Knight Northern Rebel                  Oath and Frost

05 Bolton's Boy                          Hedge Knight Frost and Oath


06    Stormlands Insurgent Bolton's Boy                      Storm's Rage and Frost


07 Crownlands Rioter Stormlands Insurgent Builders and Storm's Rage


08    Riverlands Poacher Crownlands Rioter Huntsman and Builders


09 Oldtown Student                    Riverlands Poacher Measter and Huntsman


10 Black Ears                            Oldtown Student                 Storm's Rage and Measter


11 Greenblood Warrior Black Ears                         Sunspear and Storm's Rage


12 Stone Way Claimant Greenblood Warrior Oath and  Sunspear

 


Final Note:  Don't be afraid of hitting the Rebel Leaders.  Your commanders will not die!  You have everything to gain for doing so.  Happy Hunting!
