BEAR HUNT Event Guide | Kingshot - Summary
Game Overview: Bear Hunt Event
Bear Hunt is a 30-minute event in Kingshot where players collaborate to deal as much damage as possible to a bear. Key points include:
- Players place traps and schedule rallies to attack the bear simultaneously.
- The last 5 minutes of the event prohibit leading new rallies, so timing is crucial to maximize rallies within the first 25 minutes.
- The main goal is to maximize damage to earn forge hammers, essential for upgrading hero gear.
- Additional rewards include enhancement XP parts for gear.
Key Gameplay Mechanics
- You can only lead one rally at a time.
- The bear does no damage to your troops, so troop survivability is not a concern.
- Archers are the best troop type for Bear Hunt as they deal the most damage.
- Infantry and cavalry mainly serve as protection/support, while archers are the primary damage dealers.
- The lethality buff is the most important stat to increase damage output.
Strategies to Increase Damage in Your Own Rally
- Use your three strongest rally leaders (one for each troop type: infantry, cavalry, archers) with fully upgraded gear.
- Focus all gear upgrades, XP, forge hammers, and widgets on these three heroes only.
- Utilize buffs:
- Squad attack and lethality buffs can be activated under your profile using gems.
- King appointments: assign the lethality buff to your strongest player and the attack buff to the second strongest.
- Distribute archers evenly across all marches rather than concentrating all archers in one rally—unless you have over 600,000 archers.
- Equalizing archers ensures maximum total damage across all rallies, not just your own.
Increasing Damage When Joining Other Rallies
- Join rallies with the correct heroes to provide powerful buffs.
- The most effective heroes to join with are those whose ultimate expedition skill increases lethality or attack:
- Chenko, Yan Woo, Amadeus: Provide up to 25% lethality buff.
- Ammani: Provides a 25% squad attack buff (decreases enemy defense).
- Hilda: Provides a 15% squad attack buff; useful as a last resort or for empty rallies.
- Always join with the hero in the first hero slot to ensure the rally bonus applies.
- Up to four rally joiner bonuses can stack, with higher skill levels taking priority.
- Avoid joining rallies with:
- Blue heroes whose skills affect resource output, not damage (e.g., Edwin, Olive).
- Chance-based rally leaders whose skills have low proc chances (e.g., Petra, Marlin, Jable, Zoe).
- Heroes whose skills do not increase damage or are defensive (e.g., Saul, Quinn, Howard, Diana, Gordon, Fod).
- Joining with no hero is better than joining with an incorrect hero, as no hero takes up a rally bonus slot.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Leading rallies with rally joiner heroes (except Amadeus, who can do both).
- Using blue heroes or chance-based leaders as joiners.
- Dispersing gear and upgrades across many heroes instead of focusing on the three rally leaders.
- Allowing players to join rallies with wrong heroes, which wastes rally bonus slots and reduces overall damage.
- Not monitoring and kicking players who join rallies incorrectly.
Additional Tips
- Use the reforge feature to redistribute gear and XP to your three main rally leaders.
- Keep an eye on rally compositions and join rallies that need buffs.
- Coordinate with your alliance to ensure proper hero usage in rallies.
- The distance from your trap affects march time; closer traps allow faster rally cycles.
