Viking Vengeance Expert Guide

Overview

The Viking Vengeance event in Kingshot takes place every two weeks, on Tuesday and Thursday. Players must defend against 20 waves of AI-controlled Viking troops. The attacks can target: To successfully defend a wave, you must kill at least 50% of the attack...

• Your HQ (Plains HQ is preferred)
• If you lose two battles, Vikings stop attacking you, but you can still earn points by reinforcing allies
• The event can start automatically if a time is set, or manually by R5/R4 leaders

How Points Work

Your personal points depend on how many of Viking troops die in your city. This allows both you and your allies to maximize your event points

• Killing 100% of enemy troops gives you 100% of possible points
• Reinforcing others does not steal their points—instead, it creates extra reinforcement points for you

How to Do Well in the Vikings Vengeance Event

If you want to perform your best during the Vikings Vengeance event, these are a few simple tips that can make a big difference

1. Be Online and Active

Make sure you're online during the event. Try to pick a time when most of your alliance can be active. Some waves only target players who are online, so it's important to have people around

2. Understand How Viking Waves Work

Each Viking wave targets different members

3. Empty Your City and Reinforce Others

The trick to scoring high is to reinforce others and keep your city empty. If you have more troops than your marches can carry, send out only Infantry and Cavalry, since they do most of the killing. You can leave Archers at home if they don't fit in your ma...

4. Best Heroes to Keep at Home

Keep your top 3 heroes at home. Below are the example heroes to leave at home for Generation 1

• For F2P players: Leave Jabel, Howard, and Quinn at home
• For P2W players: Leave Amadeus/Helga, Jabel, and Saul at home

5. Waves 10 and 20 - HQ Only

After Wave 9 and Wave 19 are done, recall one strong march with your best heroes and send it to the HQ, because Wave 10 and 20 only attack HQ. Once those waves are over, recall that march from HQ and send it back to reinforce the player you were helping ear...

6. Don't Heal During the Event

Avoid healing your defeated troops during the event. If you do, they'll return to your base and might start stealing reinforcement points from the people helping you

7. Reinforce Online Members First

It's better to reinforce online players since some waves only target them. Also, offline players usually have troops sitting in their city, which can steal your kills and reduce the points you earn

8. Use Bear Hunt Joiner Heroes when Reinforcing

Viking troops have low health and usually die fast, especially against Infantry. Since the goal of this event is to get the most kills for more points, it's better to use Bear Hunt Joiner heroes when you're reinforcing others. So when you're sending reinfor...

Quick Summary - Main Points to Remember

Stick to these and you'll perform great in the Vikings Vengeance event!

• Clear your base - Send out all your troops, especially Infantry and Cavalry. Don't leave them at home or they'll steal points from allies
• Reinforce others - That's how you earn the most points in this event
• Keep only 3 strong defense heroes at home - Choose your best based on your lineup
• After wave 9 and 19 - Recall one strong march and send it to defend HQ for wave 10 and 20, then send it back to reinforce others once HQ is defended
