Merlin's Trial Guide
The Basics
Next to the Parade Grounds outside the City Wall of your account there is a ship and by clicking on this ship you access the interface for Merlin's Trials.
Each day of the week a different trial is active that you can play. In the trials you proceed along a path and have to win battles to proceed. Your strength in these battles is determined by
certain parts of your account. These battles do not reset, which means that you need to keep upgrading to get through all floors.
Different
Trials
Each
day of the week has a different trial based on different parts of your account (except for Sunday and Wednesday, the Combo trials are both based on equipment and gemstones). The strength (boosts)
of your troops in a certain trial are determined by part of your account relevant for the trial.
During
the Equipment Trials trials on Monday you get the boosts from your equipped equipment pieces, so make sure you are equipped for combat before you start the trials. This does not include boosts
from equipped Gemstones.
During the Dragon Trials on Tuesday you only get the boosts from your assigned Attack Dragon Skills.
During
the Research Trials on Thursday you only get the boosts from the completed Research iun your University.
During
the Gemstone Trials on Friday you only get the boosts from embedded gemstones on the equipped equipment pieces.
During
the Building Trials on Saturday you get the boosts from your completed building levels and prestige levels.
During
the Combo Trials on Sunday and Wednesday you get boosts from the equipped equipment and the embedded gemstones in the equipped equipment pieces.
Playing a Trial
Each trial consists of multiple paths. You need to complete Path 1 to gain access to Path 2. A path consists of strongholds and chests. You need to win a challenge at a stronghold to unlock the
chests and the next stronghold along the path.
The
battles in the trials consist of you fighting with troops against the strongholds. The troops are not based on your own troops, but are provided by Merlin. The amount of troops you can use is
determined by your Stronghold level (irrespective of the trial you participate in), while the combat boosts are determined by a part of your account that is based on the trial you participate it.
Details on that below in the next section.
Since these battles do not reset, you can only open the chests once. If you get stuck during a trial, there is no quick way to proceed, instead you need to develop your account in the specific area matching the trial.
Rewards
Every first time you win a battle in a trial you unlock a chest that you can open to get some rewards directly, and to get Merlin's Tokens.
Merlin's
Tokens can be used on the Ship (by clicking Redeem) for various rewards.
Initially
I missed the ranking rewards. Once you have played a certain trial, each time after the trial was active, you can collect a ranking reward for that trial by going to the ship and clicking on the
trial. These rewards expire after a week, so be sure, even if you don't play the Merlin Trials anymore, to still collect these rewards every time. These ranking rewards are also a number of
Merlin Token.
