Introduction

So Tactician, you’ve started playing The Lord of the Rings: Rise to War and want to know how to succeed without spending a single cent? Then you’ve come to the right place! This article will discuss two tips and tricks that can enable Free to play players to survive and thrive in Middle Earth.

Tip 1: Spend your gems wisely

The first mistake which players often make is to spend all their gems on items that can speed up your progress, such as refreshing the market for 50 gems to buy speed ups, or restarting events in the Red book of Westmarch. Whilst this can be done if you spend money to buy gems, as a F2P player you simply cannot sustain this over an extended period of time.

Instead, as a Free to Play player, you may benefit most from spending your gems on two things: to refresh tavern tips, and to spend on mathom chests.

By spending gems to refresh tavern tips, you are not only giving your commanders a good way to gain experience, you can also get gear and coins from this. In addition, tavern tips can guarantee that you will gain experience for a commander, unlike mathom chests where this is not certain.

The second thing you should be spending on is mathom chests. Now these are useful to get gear, and earn respect items and invitation letters to unlock new commanders. But you need to spend gems wisely here as well. Every day, you can get a chance to have a free pull, and also one at half price. I recommend for you to do both, as it saves 600 gems. You should then focus on the Gandalf mathom chest if you are in season one, as it guarantees you a T2 commander after 50 pulls, which is very achievable as a F2P.

Tip 2: Get help from more skilled players

The second tip is to seek help from higher level players. This can be in general, or in game. For example, when taking high-level tiles, get a higher level friend to clear most of the defenders for you. This can apply to both f2p and non f2p players alike, but it is more important for f2p players. This is as f2p players can’t afford to lose troops as they can’t buy resource production boosts to recruit and heal more. The way this strategy works is that you can get a more skilled and higher level player’s help to wipe out the defenders, and you can just walk in and take the tile without losing many troops yourself.

You should also seek help from experienced players to give red book walkthroughs and ideal commander builds so you don’t have to waste gems resetting them.

 

So there we have it, two tips that can help free to play players succeed.
