Best way to get coins? [CLOSED]

What is the most efficient way of getting coins? Castle assault seems quick once you cycle a certain number of levels but it can be a hit and miss.

I think castle assault is better than the defense for coins. The mini games on main island don't really give you that much either.

sheep are 1000pts each, so get as many as you can.

The Sheep Herding game on the Mainland gives you a good amount of coins. If you score 3,000 then you earn 300 coins, 4,500 = 450 coins and so on.

I tend to use Defense, but that's because I haven't had much experience with Assault yet. I get around 1k in 15 minutes or so.

I can never get the gold sheep to follow me on the mainland and can barely get any black sheep.

Any tips/tricks? Seems like an easy game but I always just end up getting most the white sheep, which yields very little gold.

Usually play as Boomer who has a relatively high "luck" stat not sure if that has any effect. Definitely helps with assault.

I'm not sure if luck has any effect but agility might. Try your best to stay behind the sheep when guiding them and not right on top of them. Sometimes when your too close to the sheep or change your direction, the sheep might change its direction or turn around and run the opposite direction. This is due to the game lagging or thinking that your ahead of the sheep. Watch the sheep's direction carefully, if it starts to walk in the opposite direction and you walk past it by mistake, it will run away from you. The Gold and black sheep are always stubborn and hard to get into the pen just make sure that they don't run into a corner or a small area because they usually just run back and forward. I'm very sorry if most of this doesn't make any since, it's easier to show then tell.

it exist a way to get 1000 coins easily but it's very hard to get it. First go to level 7 ''what should I do?'' in castle assault. If you destroy all the sheep, get the treasure and kill the enemy you get at least 900 coins or 1000 coins if you used only two skylanders

I still dont see how its possible, usually takes me at least 2 skylanders just to kill the monster behind 3 walls smilie

I usually just do it with 2 skylanders for a quick 101 gold but 900 gold sounds much better! smilie

I'd say the sheep round up game would be the fastest way to get coins, as I can usually get 1K per run.

Orrrr, if you feel like being creative, you can dance next to the fountain for coins XP

^ You really don't get that many coins from bashing those but if you want to do it than it's easier in your Skyland because you don't have to worry about other players and they spawn more often.

There are treasure boxes that are hidden. If anything hits it, you get bonus points.

It's the elemental powers, they will be active after you reach level 16 if I remember correctly. You just have to click after your shot when you want to activate them.

To get 1000 coins you'll need to use two boosts instead of just one - First get rid of the chest/sheep, and when it comes to the set of three barriers, I use a boosted water type, wait for it to knock down the first block, then click to activate it's power. If done exactly, the furthest icicle appears on the other side of the remaining blocks, and you should still have one Skylander left over.
I only found that out after I posted that vid though smilie

I believe nitendofan92 uses a different method to me.
