Thanks! 4XAlchemist

Love your guides! Very informative stuff. You've helped me improve my gameplay a LOT! Just watched some of your most recent videos on a full gameplay commentary for the cravers. I'd love to see one for Lumeris :)

Keep up the quality videos!

Nice! Thanks for the guide, I'm finally getting the hang of how to start minmaxing and optimising.

Awesome! Glad it was helpful!

I'm pretty new to this game. I was looking for a min/max build order for UE to help me get an idea of what I should be paying attention to and what I could get away with. I"m only 6 minutes into this video and I've already learned a bunch. Thank you!
