Ten Ton Hammer - Taking MMO Gamers to the Next Level!

Herme said Maple had asked him to screen her visitors. I could only win the secret of her location in a duel. Herme didn’t put up much of a fight, though. His Nature deck didn’t have much new in it. I beat him soundly and he told me that Maple was headed to Farnum Farmstead south of Crossroads. Ralsu hit level 19 and accepted some baggy jeans for his victory.

When I found Maple, she was suspicious of the apology I brought from Ari. To prove I had really beaten Ari in a duel, I’d also need to defeat Maple. Her Nature contained one thing I had not seen so far, a Resource called Scatter Shot. This card would allow her to spend a coin to destroy any creature opposite her hero. Maple relied heavily on her four coin plants, but I could beat her in other squares. Once I got my Ernie Hero on the board, the extra card he allowed Nature creatures to flip in battles helped me prevail over Maple’s plants. Ralsu reached level 20 as a card duelist and got a Robgoblin tee.

My play style reminded me of Ari’s and lent credibility to the apology I had brought her. She finally came up with an idea to solve the dispute between her and Ari for good: if I beat the tournament deck Maple had used to topple Ari, the two could stop arguing over who was better because I’d be champ. I was one win away from ending the quarrel of the CC.

Parting Thoughts

I leveled Ralsu from one to twenty as a card duelist without buying any virtual cards or subscribing to Free Realms. Best of all, I didn’t have to grind once. Every battle was a part of the story, and levels came quickly. The outcome is that card duelist is my favorite job in Free Realms. I look forward to continuing the quests and unraveling more of the story.

I have purchased some of the physical Free Realms trading cards from a local retailer. Players get a Chaos deck in the starter set and use booster packs to acquire new cards. Each deck comes with a redeemable code for an in-game reward, usually a temporary power boost or costume. Booster packs have a chance to contain cards that can be unlocked in-game, too. I did not use any of those cards in the making of this guide because I wanted to find out if a free player could level to the cap.

Finally, I had leveled Ralsu to the cap for fun while working on my Chef Guide, so I used a new character on my account to go through the quests again and take notes. I discovered that all characters on the same account can access all cards already in the accounts collection. This meant I had access to hero cards won from the quest lines earlier the second time. Again, I did not use this advantage in making this guide.
