Greek Trial III is another battle that induced trauma and bad memories. I'm stuck between buying the remaining two Titan items, 3 remaining Odin items, upgrading gens (maybe Alexander, Hotzendorf and Jhansi to 6*) and investing in new gens (maybe Caesar, Nelson, Blücher and Admiral Yi). Bad news is that none of those options will guarantee success with a hundred percent certainty... I'm leaning towards skills upgrades & equipment first before building a stable of x no. of 6* gens, purely because they have more utility for completing the rest of game. However, my current plan for this trial is relying on a certain amount of luck so if the chances of getting the right battles is say 100/1 then I'll be forced to reconsider

Some items are still locked and probably Greek trials are not the last ones.

There's talk of OP grey generals in the other thread, but the whole thing is still abstract to me so I may be misunderstanding.

Second, we still don't have the slightest idea what should be done to get them. Maybe it is even more difficult that to beat Zeus . And, last but not least, no-one said they will be lvl 60 generals

And, last but not least, no-one said they will be lvl 60 generals By AI-controlled arena. For some of them you can deploy up to 16 generals. You get a couple of points by winning. After you get a certain number of points you can upgrade the general for free.

That's what I meant. I, for example, don't have 16 decent generals to beat other players.

The 16 general arena hasn't opened yet. Now it's just 10. For the current arena you get to choose between 3 opponents. You might even run into an opponent that only deployed 6 generals, of course beating him won't give you a lot of points.

How to beat Zeus: reflections, contemplations and perspectives Well, the most obvious path, of course, is to buy good generals you don't have (I don't have many, actually, including Nobunaga who is very useful in Trials). Downside is that it will take a lot of time/medals. My idea is to promote to 6 stars grey generals otherwise completely left aside such as Pachacuti, Batu, Suriyothai, Spartacus. And those grey generals who already proved to be worthy of investments - Xerxes and Jhansi. Some of them have nice abilities at lvl 6. It shouldn't be especially expensive, and we have a nice substitution bench without ruining ourselves. What do you think, guys? Would It be plausible to get the only medal gens being Richard, Nobunaga, Blucher, and some Blue Gens? Then just upgrade them and Coin Gens, and you're set?

Moctezuma can Replace Caesar, Bluecher replaces Suleiman, and Alexander, you get for free.

Invasions are quite easy when you have a good team of generals. They are difficult at the beginning only because the level of AI's generals is higher. But usually, of course, AI's controlled battles are more difficult because all your tactical advantages are ignored by AI. It simply randomly moves your troops around...
