Elements: Broken Lands is a brand new collectible card battling game by members of the former Zynga Austin studio, who formed into their own game company known as Team Chaos and came up with something new and creative. Elements: Broken Lands has a much different style than most other trading card games, in that you actually control what your characters do in battle. You and your opponent fight using one card at a time, out of a team of five, and whoever’s team lasts longer wins. Read on for some tips and tricks for Elements: Broken Lands!
There are four different elements that each card has, known as factions (each card with an element at least; some don’t have them.) They work in a four way rock paper scissors sort of way. Fire beats air, water beats fire, earth beats water and wind beats earth. In addition, if you organize your cards correctly, you can get extra bonuses, especially for using 5 of the same card element, and for matching your cards to the element of the stage that you are in.
To complete quests extremely quickly, take one of your non-elemental cards (such as your war dog or your war cat) and use equip over and over to equip every single equipment card that you get that increases attack power (you can equip up to four equipment cards per character card). Jack up its attack power until it kills everybody in one hit, and you’ll complete double or triple the amount of quests for the same amount of energy. If you don’t od this with your war cat or dog, pick another rare, epic, legendary or fabled card to do this with.
Specializing your teams to counter the stage’s elements and the enemy factions works best in quests, but for the arena, you’re going to want to have a well balanced team, because other players will have a completely random assortment of cards. Avoid the arena until after equipping most of your cards, and especially evolving your cards.
Take advantage of the marketplace. Before you buy anything, look at the chart in the lower left corner to see what the historic prices are. Buy items which are at low prices compared to their previous prices. Then sell them for higher prices. Repeat as often as you like in order to load up on silver.
