Fill your Wagons
Finally the Conclave Arcana Conflicts are here. I dug out my Rebellion Conflicts post. Here is the official announcement. The mechanics remains the same: You get your wagons, and you stake 5 cards in them. Here are some differences this time:
Wagons were $10 (in DEC/credits before, now they are $4 to $5 (priced in Wood, Stone, Iron and Aura), and you need them eight times
- 40,000 Wood
- 10,000 Stone
- 4,000 Iron
- 2,500 Aura
100,000 points gives you 1 chance, just like previous; but you need 800 chance now to get a guaranteed 1 card airdrop, compared to 200 chance for 1 during the first Rebellion conflict
800 entries × 100,000 points = 80 million points in 30 days. So to calc that down to how much CP (of Conclave you need) that would be 80,000,000 / 30 / 24 = 111,111 CP
Here is that data full details in tabular format:
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Base Gold Foil Chance | 4.00% |
| Boosted Gold Foil Chance | 8.00% |
| Alchemy Potions Per Chance | 50 |
| Base Black Foil Chance | 0.10% |
| Boosted Black Foil Chance | 0.20% |
| Midnight Potions Per Chance | 50 |
| Points Per Entry | 100,000 |
| Airdrop Chance Per Entry | 0.125% |
| Entries for Guaranteed Airdrop | 800 |
| Airdrops for Guaranteed Gold Foil | 25 |
So from this, the first thing that comes to people's mind is how are they going to populate the wagon. Obviously more CP (collection power) the better. My problem is, these days I deal with mostly PP (production power), and I have forgotten about CP. So this conflict led me to work on the CP again.
There is a 5% bonus for max cards, and wagons cost money and they break. So it is prudent to pack them as densely as possible. The plot above shows the CA cards Max CP on all three foil types and all four rarity. The vertical scale is log. I also have the linear scale which I will paste below :) The reason I am laughing is because the BF are so big is CP, it is hard to see the regular foils!
Yep! That is how lucrative BF cards are. Full disclosure, I only have 1 epic and 1 legendary black foils.
Here is the data for the max CPs
| Rarity | Regular | Gold | Black |
|---|---|---|---|
| Common | 2,100 | 4,987.5 | 24,937 |
| Rare | 2,415 | 11,550 | 57,750 |
| Epic | 4,830 | 26,250 | 131,250 |
| Legendary | 5,775 | 52,500 | 262,500 |
There you have it. Start filling your wagon. Get your CA Black Foils out of land 3 days prior. I recommend doing it this weekend and keep one full day of buffer, just in case!
Conflict starts on July 16, 2025, at 12 PM EST / 4 PM UTC
The Ratio
The CP ratios are important. People have strong opinions about it. I don't have any. It is what it is :)
| Rarity | Regular | Gold | Black | GF/RF | BF/GF | BF/RF |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Common | 2,100 | 4,987.5 | 24,937 | 2.38 | 5.00 | 11.87 |
| Rare | 2,415 | 11,550 | 57,750 | 4.78 | 5.00 | 23.91 |
| Epic | 4,830 | 26,250 | 131,250 | 5.43 | 5.00 | 27.17 |
| Legendary | 5,775 | 52,500 | 262,500 | 9.09 | 5.00 | 45.45 |
Point is a BF legendary is 45 times more effective in conflicts than a RF legendary.
