User blog comment:Swag1on/Why are Raid Events so popular?/@comment-5712820-20130131143021/@comment-5896096-20130204102429

Odyssey is not really about luck. It just relates on your energy total and the amount of ED you will use..!

Everybody, I repeat, everybody can be high ranked in Odyssey event if they have more than 500 energy and spend 200 ED (with Blessings) or 500 ED without. Something like that.

Ok, luck, if you have a lot of flame stones (for the last event). But if you spend a lot of ED, there is no luck anymore. Ok sometimes you will have 200 flames stones in 500 energy spent and sometimes 20. But in the end, the average will be the same for all players.

The only way to succeed in Odyssey, is : having a energy account (mini 500 energy) / spend 200ED / use 10 fairy blessings = rank between 250 and 100.

The raid events : looks like Odyssee but number of PP burned is not enough. You need a good front line with Raid Cards (2-3) and good ATK UR. A lot of ATK PWR and a lot of PP. I don't have any number but with a good front line (with at least 2 Raid cards lvl 8-10) / 400 atk pwr and 200pp, I think you can be ranked between 250 and 100. I don't really know, I've never been ranked in this kind of event. With an active guild, you can succeed better (when in Odyssee, your guild is quite useless !).

Br event : you need a really good guild if you wanna be ranked in guild rank. You must have a huge ATK pwr. And spend a lot more pp than in raid events. But guild rewards are better than solo rewards. If you have a really active guild with good players, then, this kind of event is the best.

Imo, raid events are the most popular event, but it's not all on energy (like odyssee) and not all on guild members like in Br events (no def leader or no active members = you guild can't be high ranked).

Raid is the middle. You need energy if you wanna find your own bosses if you don't have an active guild. It's not all on energy because you have to use atk pwr to defeat bosses. It's not all on random even if some people find boss every 2 steps and others can't find any in 200 energy spent. If you have a good guild, you will succeed better but doing raid event alone is possible too.
