Fight the Epic Boss.

Looks like you are well underway. Keep it up. The big 4 plus are a good starting position. But the EB armors are better. A normal EB armor is about as strong as a Roc feather + or Infernal Lord +. Glacius and Krampus are much stronger. They are an excellent way to advance. Work on them (or whatever EB armor you have). Keep fighting the EB every week. You will notice you will get further against it as you gain strength. Every new EB armor will make the next one easier, till one day you beat it at level 43 and you can craft the + version.

Once you are strong enough it will be easy to advance on the map. You get stronger by getting a higher game level. Playing the maximum storyline level you can win is the quickest way to level up. Reach level 100.

Training fields are good. I think you have (more than) enough armor smith's. If I would do it all again I would start saving and try to get all castle expansions first. But I have been playing for 16 weeks now and I still have 1 expansion to open. Just can't seem to spare the 2 million it takes.

Ignore any rankings in the game. The top ranked players are all big gem spenders. You can't win from them. There is no real connection to your abilities. For instance if you play in the arena you get opponents your own size. That means you on your level have about the same chances of winning as I do at my level (level 116 with 3 maxed EB + armors), because my opponents usually have 2 epics.

The more you play the higher you get, and to play a lot you have to buy energy. So it is essentially a gem spending contest. Ignore it.

Some people try to get on in the game by fusing armors. I do not. That is a matter of taste and what you want from the game. It is your choice.
