Maximize your damage against the mighty bear
🐻 What is the Bear Trap Event?
The Bear Trap (Pitfall) is an alliance challenge where you rally against a central Bear boss to earn rewards like Forge Hammer materials. The Bear does NOT damage your troops back, so the goal is purely to maximize Lethality and offensive damage within a fixed time window.

💡 Optimal Troop Formation: The most effective formation is 10% Infantry, 10% Cavalry, 80% Archers (1/1/8 ratio). Advanced players with very high archer lethality may push to 85-90% archers.
Why this ratio?
• Archers deal the highest damage in this event
• Small amounts of Infantry and Cavalry (10% each) are included only to activate hero skills that require multiple troop types
• Since the Bear doesn't kill troops, defensive infantry is unnecessary
• Keep minimum 5,000 infantry due to Bear damage mechanics
🎯 How Rally Distribution Works:
• Self-Hosted Rally (Top 3 Heroes): Uses your Deploy Total (max troops with your 3 strongest heroes) split as 80/10/10
• Follower Teams: Remaining archers (Total Archers - Self Rally Archers) divided equally among follower teams, each split as 80/10/10
• Example: 150k Deploy Total = 120k archers for self. If you have 240k total archers: (240k - 120k) ÷ 3 followers = 40k archers per follower team

🎖️ Leader Guide:
Rally Hosts (Leaders): Leaders should be your alliance's strongest members with highest stats and rally capacity. Position castles close to the Bear to minimize march times. Use your three strongest offensive gold heroes:
• Best options: Jabel, Helga, Marlin (or Amadeus if 5-star with maxed widget)
• Your personal gear and hero levels determine the base stats for the entire rally
Rally Joiners (Support): Only the FIRST hero's FIRST Expedition skill from joiners contributes to the rally!
• Priority heroes (25% Lethality at max): Chenko, Yeonwoo, or Amadeus in the leftmost slot
• Secondary option: Amane (attack boost)
• ⚠️ IMPORTANT: If you've already used your Lethality heroes, send marches with NO HEROES rather than using defensive/gathering heroes (like Quinn or Diana), as they lower overall rally damage

| Balanced | 8% | 12% | 80% | High cavalry lethality |
| Conservative | 15% | 10% | 75% | Lower-tier players, safer approach |
