Clash of Lords 2 - Evolution table - Landslide

This is currently the tank to have, having bumped Pounder off the top of the list of tanks. Base defense, especially once you're past the 3rd Evolution is pretty overpowering. I, like most players tend to bunch my Heroes when dropping them into a base for a Lords League or a Resource Raid. If the landslide is beyond the 3rd Evolution, expect a very rapid response and watch as your Heroes get thumped without retaliating even before they do any damage.

I shudder to think what one of those could do to you as your opponent in Guild Clash with all the associated buffs.

This Hero is rare, difficult to get Shards for, tough to Glory unless you're P2P, pricey to Evolve but very, very good as a tank.If you can afford it, totally worth it.

Evolution skills

Evolution costs.

Clash of Lords 2 - Evolution table - Hydrasaur

One of the oldest Epics in the game and a mid range Epic at best, even with Evolution. Probably effective in tandem with a few other Heroes' Evolution. I have faced a fair number Arena players whose Hydrasaur Divine freezes all land based opponents, but none of the newer players are upgrading their Hydrasaurs. 

This was the best Flyer until Sapphirix came around and still is too fragile to be used solo.

Full Evolution abilities.

Cost of Evolving your Hydrasaur.

Clash of Lords 2 - Evolution table - Great Sage

This one is oddly easy to deal with in lower levels, but the Skill is a painful thing to be hit by, the Divine is far worse. :( Difficult to get (both Hero and Shards) if your a F2P player.

But if you have the chance to Evolve one, go for it, this is one of the newer and and more effective Heroes.

These are the Evolution abilities.

And this is what it'll set you back.

Clash of Lords 2 - Evolution table - Dark Rider

One of the most defense-centric Heroes and the costliest to Evolve. If you have the resources to burn, go for it. The Divines shield can be really useful in Arena, I have faced those and they can be a pain.. :(

This is another Hero for whom I need help getting a full list of Evolutions, I need to find a player who has evolved his Dark Rider to Capricorn (Divine 2) in either Android or Amazon. If you know of someone or are one yourself please let me know the Player Name + Continent + Platform.



The table outlines the cost for each Evolution.

Clash of Lords 2 - Evolution table - Blitz Bomber

This Hero is one of the first to get Evolution enabled and is easily the weakest of the Epics with an Evolution. Early adopters to evolutions (usually P2P players) will have updated early on, but not many people do so anymore. Mutagen is far too scarce to waste on a Hero that may not be worth the investment.

On the flip side, this Hero is very easy to glory (therefore Shards are never in short supply), is a solid aid to boost your chosen Mercenaries. Essentially and easy to get Epic, that's relatively easy to Evolve. The clincher in my mind? FearMe (listed as FearMeOrBeerMe in the COL2 forum) who has got 100 Million+ scores in Battle Royale, lists it as his most destructive Hero. Makes you think, eh?

I do not have a full list list of Evolution abilities at each level, yet. Please help by pointing me towards an Android or Amazon player who has his Blitz Bomber upto Capricorn (Divine 2). If you know of someone or are one yourself please let me know the Player Name + Continent + Platform.




And this is what it'll cost you.

Clash of Lords 2 - Evolution table - Sapphirix

The best one to spam attacks in Guild Clash with 2 second cooldown (really crappy aim though). Kinda disappointing Divine, but it is the first flyer to have HP comparable to tanks. Hefty bonus when used in Battle Royale, either as an Aid or as main Hero.

Here's what you get when you evolve a Sapphirix.

And this is what it'll cost you.

Clash of Lords 2 - Evolution table - Renee Ven

One of the early Heroes who got a massive boost once Evolution kicked in. A must have for folks following the Sharpshooter strategy (thanks for the super useful video about this JokeArtZ!) Phenomenal boost as an Aid for sharpshooters, but the Divine 3 revives a Hero with 2nd chance to use a Divine! If you manage to collect the resources for this Hero, totally worth it. :)

As always, my Abyss Demon post has more info about this type of post. This is what you get at each Evolution level.

And this is what it'll cost you.

Clash of Lords 2 - Evolution table - Arctic Lord

Another hugely popular Hero (one that I do not have). Pretty much all the top players seems to have this guy at a very high Evo level. As always, more information about my Evolution posts on my Abyss Demon Evolution post.

And this is what it'll set you back for the Evolutions mentioned above.

Clash of Lords 2 - Evolution table - PanGoli

Another very popular Hero. This one is still one of the most popular despite being one of the 'early' Heros.

As always, if you see an error, please comment. Same with ideas on how to make this sheet better. More information on my Abyss Demon Evolution post.

All of the stuff on the list above looks very nice, but it's pricey. Here's what each of them will cost you...

The green sections on the left are the only parts I have personally verified. If possible, please load screenshots of the other Evolution costs. Red is unverified.

Clash of Lords 2 - Skill upgrade table - cost in rings

Need to know how many rings it'll take to get your Hero to a skill level before you spend?
Use the sheet below to look it up. :)

As always, if you find a mistake, please feel to add comments / screenshots that contradict the table below.

Something missing or something I could have made better? Let me know! :)

Hero Skill upgrade cost in rings - v1

Oculus Rift - competition in an untapped market. Is that good or bad?

With any luck Oculus Rift will beat the HTC Vive to market, because right now it looks like their only real competition at this point. Question is - Has Oculus made enough progress on their hardware to retain their perceived lead on the VR hardware market? If HTC releases the device before Oculus or worse has about 2-3 months or more of uncontested access to the market, it will make their situation much trickier. 

The worst case scenario? HTC / Valve release a product that has flaws which Oculus already knows about, but hasn't fully ironed out yet. This could lead to the entire VR scene getting scuttled before it has properly taken off. This is precisely why the Oculus team says they haven't released a product yet.
 

The HTC Vive. Wannabe Oculus Rift, or the other way around?

The HTC Vive has a couple of advantages at this point. They have gone old-school for the screen panel and skipped the issues the Oculus is facing sourcing OLED panels with the appropriate quality / refresh rates. The device also seems better geared for a 'stand up and move about' experience. The 3 metre x 4 metre space needed could be a barrier for a lot of people though... The other place where the HTC Vive seems to have a significant lead is the presence of a controller which has already got positive reviews even though it is still a prototype. Palmer has made it clear recently that the Oculus controller is still a while away.

In short, if the Vive hits the market early and has a controller that is intuitive in a 3D space, they just might run away with the VR prize. And if a Half Life sequel is bundled with an inevitable tie up into Steam...??  Oh boy!

Oculus has enormous goodwill in the VR scene for sticking to the idea of a polished VR experience right from CV1. That goodwill was dented somewhat by the sale to Facebook. But the presence of an actual rival in the market before the Rift comes out will sway a lot of people & that goodwill will erode pretty fast. Either way, Christmas season of 2015 will be interesting for the VR marketplace. I can't wait!  :)

Clash of Lords 2 - Evolution table - Pounder

Hopefully this will help people know exactly what they going to get, before they commit to anything.
