Random "quickie" Questions

[The_Red]

Just wondering....what's the average age of players here? I often wonder if I'm a "older" guy playing a kids game.

there are plenty of people in their 60s.... the range is very wide along with peoples professions and statuses in life. I find that there are fewer children playing this game... but of course you can usually tell who they are when they post on the forums. their names also are usually Alex or have some thinly veiled penis reference.

What is the max amount of unvaulted money you lose, and how many times can you be attacked before you are too beat up? I haven't been able to find this info anywhere. Thanks.

The amount of gold you lose depends on your level. I think past lvl 50 you start losing the max of 9900 an attack with a max of 20 attacks before you become too weak to attack for another ~3hrs.

Wow!that makes me feel much better. I'm 40 so it's great to hear there are older ppl here. I never got too involved here on the forum because I didn't want to be the old guy chattin with kids...guess its time to get involved here and share some knowledge and thoughts on the game. Thanks!

[Euchred]

Thanks for answering. Holy crap! You could lose a day or two of collections in one attack! Ouch.

The amount you can lose per attack is way to high IMO even if you could only be attacked 10 times let alone 20. But that's the way it is, I'm just way to use to cc where you can only lose 30k per attack which is nothing when you make almost 5 million an hour.

[GetItOn]

Thanks for answering. Holy crap! You could lose a day or two of collections in one attack! Ouch.

To add just a touch of clarification, you lose 10% of your unvaulted gold up to the max of 9900. So if you only had 45,000 unvaulted they'd get 4,500 on an attack with it tapering down to always be 10% of whatever is left.

It's not so bad. I think there should be a random chance to break into someone's vault on each attack as well.

Hi y'all
I have a noob question about raiding buildings. What is the deal with the missing red energy bar in some cases? I.e. the "already sacked" message comes up. What does this mean? I thought if someone hit the building three times, a pile of rocks would be all that is left, but obviously there is a third state to buildings. Someone care to explain?

Thanks in advance!

[Funkey monkey]

Welcome to the forum.

It means the user has collected the gold. You can only raid a building that hasn't been collected.

[Bronson]

Rapido - the message is misleading, it just means that the building hasn't got any money to raid as it has been collected.

Does anyone know what the drop rate is for the boss event loot items? I did 5 five bosses, all common. It's something I expect on like modern war ,because theirs 35 . But on here , it's only 15.

Is there a known issue with the "Clearing out the Pests" Dwarven Mine quest? I have not had a single 'Scavenger' appear in days and I need to kill 6? lol

I've had similar experiences on other maps. You most likely have to kill other guys on that map for the Scavenger's to appear.

15 is just the beginning, after you defeat hit 15 times, a new goal appears asking to kill him 30 times (you already have 15 done)

I killed 15 bosses and got 1 uncommon with boss #4 and 1 rare with boss #15, the rest were just commons
KA loot drop SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Make sure you do not have any other quest SIMILAR pending in the Mine (like kill xx monster here or there) lots of time you have to COMPLETE other quests in order for a particular quest (like the scavengers) get activated

usually quests for the same map go hand to hand, and you have to finish one of them for the other to activate

also you will see that sometimes TWO DIFFERENT QUEST in the log, will ask you to kill the same monster in the same map only diff number of times (example: quest 1 kill monster "a" in mine 4 times and monster "c", quest 2, kill monster "b" 4 times and kill monster "a" 5 times) TWO ACTIVE QUESTS ASKING TO KILL SAME MONSTER IN SAME MAP!!

Question- what's the difference between army equipment and hero equipment? I don't get it. I thought ,each unit will allow one weapon and one armor. So what the heck am I missing here?

Hero equipment are items used by your hero (the totals are added into attack and defense respectively) for PVE. Any extra un-used Hero items are used by your Army in order of best to worst. Army equipment is typically there for quest purchases and relatively in-expensive items that you can buy many of, while Hero equipment remains rather pricey.

I have tried several times to get to over 500 allies on my alliance, but it only ever shows 500 in my profile.

[SlashRacer]

Speaking of alies....I have seen some of my allies(at least I thought they were my allies) who showed up in my battle list. Is this because I added them as an ally after I had 500 allies?

Just a quick question i hope someone can help me with..

I bought the lights fury as hero equipment when i started playing(warrior). And i have had it ever since. Its the best weapon i can buy for my hero(in the store). But i see all the other guys attack me and many have better equipment. So yesterday i finally got dropped dueling axes in a map(which is far better then lights fury). But it doesnt equip on my hero. So question is:

-How does the guys get this equipment?
-And if its from drops, does it equip automatically? Or i have to equip it somehow?
-Can someone explain me how this works?

Hope for some help;)

Cheers

Almost certainly a class issue. Each weapon and armour can only be used by 1 class, either warrior, rogue or mage. The axes are probably a rogue weapon, and can't be used by a warrior. They still count towards your attack though.

Any better dropped warrior weapon than what you use is equipped automatically.

[mitchitized]

When I started playing KA, I was extremely careful about the placement of my defensive buildings so they covered the high-raid items (silos, for starters).

I've seen quite a few high level players don't bother, and stack them neatly on the opposite side of all of their juicy manors and whatnot.

That has me thinking, does the exact placement of each defensive building really matter, or does KA just base the defensive rating for the raid on the overall defensive score of the player?

Can anyone confirm or deny this?

[LiveHard]

The placement radius matters for raids on the covered buildings. However the higher level and stats you work up to, the less these matter. They become a small percentage of your defense and are not worth the time to upgrade. So early in the game they are helpful. The cannons are also good for selling if you need quick gold for the next big upgrade.

[EiZ]

ive noticed during my bd10 upgrade that when i raided a building that is well guarded, with def buildings, i suffer more casualties, if its close or more than 60% of my attac that is....

A quick question - if you are attacked by someone else, but you win, do you end up gaining experience points even though you did not try to "revenge" against the attacker?

[Funkey monkey]

Echus
It's been months, but I think the last time I gained 1 XP from being attacked

[RandomUser]

A quick question - if you are attacked by someone else, but you win, do you end up gaining experience points even though you did not try to "revenge" against the attacker?

Yes, you gain XP. I'm not totally certain, but I think the XP gained is equivalent to what you'd gain by attacking them and winning yourself. You also move forward in Tournament Rounds if the attacker is of sufficiently high ally count, which could really tack on the XP. I also believe you gain honor points as well.

[mitchitized]

Thanks EiZ and LiveHard for the response! :cool: Trying to figure out what is the smartest strategy at higher levels to increase defense stats. I went the High Priest route on one of my accounts, which looks to be the quickest way to really jack up your defense.

If there's a smarter approach, I'd love to hear it.

Which brings up the next question, is the Kingdom Planner (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AqX4lDb5cyUvdGxyTXZFeTRBc1poXy1xcVg0cHFKQ UE#gid=1) current and make sense for folks around lvl 100 to figure out where to go next? Trying to focus on specifics so I can feel advancement, definitely NOT the camping type ;)

And lastly, and quite random: What would you consider the highest priority for a lvl 100 free player?


Breeding Den - lvl 10

Hey, has anyone ever had a money building sell itself without you doing anything?

Just logged into my LLP account on the iPad tonight. Before I could even touch the screen, one of my Level 4 Farms info box appeared, then the confirm sale box and whoosh, it was gone. All in about 2 seconds. I thought maybe when I opened the app I touched the screen too long and that continued once the game started. But the KA icon is at the top of the screen, nowhere near the middle where the farm was.

Have sent a ticket to support to get it back. Maybe my iPad is haunted.

Problems collecting gold

Has anyone else had problems collecting gold?

I collect the gold, try and vault it but it disappears.

For example, I have just collected 100 gold, so now I have 100 unprotected gold.
I tap 'Protect' and instead of sticking it in the vault it just disappears and my unprotected gold now says zero.


If I restart the app, the building I have collected it from is showing it is available for collection again?

Any ideas?


**** Update **** Weird. I moved the offending building a bit and I can now collect and vault OK

[Ratma2001]

so what is CAMPING? i still have no idea about this game just basics , earns money from attacking people random earn money from quest get the loot and spend it on stuff , ie upgrades as per ingame instructions or if i see a better unit coming up in my building but i try to avoid the upgrade if the unit has to be paid with gems ? not sure on much have level 89 with attack 18835 and defense 19501, but only get 2543 per hour in gold ?with over 7200battles 2936 enemies killed (found out their the quest monsters) and 570 raids but have 232 members so i jump up a bit when i accepted heaps of request , maybe i should have taken each level to the hilt ?

I was gonna suggest to collect, use the unprotected gold and restart the game. If you can collect from the same building, but did not lose your purchase, then you can farm the gold building. Might as well take advantage of it.

I must have really missed something...what exactly is "camping"?

[Black Knight]

I must have really missed something...what exactly is "camping"?

As the name suggests, you just pitch a tent where you are and don't do anything that would level you up too fast, or at all. You don't do quests, attack/raid other players or kill monsters, and just work at building up your IPH (income) and army to increase your attack and defense stats. Oh, and don't forget to upgrade your vault to the max.

If you level up too quickly without building a stable economy and a strong army, you will struggle to compete with much stronger players at higher levels.

[Black Knight]

This may have been answered before somewhere, but I haven't found anything as yet.

My question is to those players who go the low ally strategy to stay off the radar of high ally players. How far up the rival list can you see players with higher ally counts?

I'm currently max allies (335) at lvl 67 and have always been able to see players with as few as 120 allies. I've noticed a few low ally BD10 players with high stats who could pose a problem when I go for my BD 9 & 10 runs soon. But I don't know if they can see me.

Ah, so you're THAT Black Knight. Nice to "meet" you here. :)

This info is a little stale, but when I was at c100 allies at L61 a couple of weeks or so ago, I could see people up to L170 or so. However, I didn't see many of them, and a significant problem was that if I found such a victi... err... opponent that was not yet quite ripe for harvesting, I might not encounter said player again until many hours later (or even the next day), when s/he might have spent the gold pile that was being built up.

The other thing to note is that most of those low-ally BD10 players at L67 will probably have A/D tops in the region of 40-50k (although one guy probably has 60k stats by now). It would be quite expensive for them to attack you unless they can get multiple 9.9k takes off you. As I noted above, they would have to be lucky to find you, and a key way of reducing their chances would be to try to minimise your BD run time - so do a lot of (judicious) raiding and attacking yourself. For example, if memory serves, I got BD9 in 2-3 days and BD10 in 6 days using that tactic.

Go for it but do it as quick as possible. Check your rivals often so you are not got out of guard. The rest is lucky!

Hey Guys, new to the forum, first post, had a quick question. I just started the game about two weeks ago trying to figure out my strategy. Right now, I am staying put, building my economy and building up the seige workshop to get the flaming cats. I think I'm pretty weak for my level, so trying stop leveling up and build a better army. I'm level 19 with just 1729/2040 stats, 39 allies trying to stay low on the radar. Working on my vault, money buildings, etc. I keep reading other peoples' strategies for getting the level 10 BD and whatnot, and they are always talking about raiding for high amounts. I've searched and read the beginners guide, but I haven't found my answer yet. How can you predict how much you will get on a raid or on an attack? I will raid people I think are weaker than me if I'm trying to get quick gold, but never get much in return. Is there a better way to predict what you will get or increase the amount you can get? I appreciate any input, sorry if its been answered before.

You're welcome! Forgot to add earlier that from attacks, you will get 10% of whatever your opponent has unvaulted, up to a maximum of 9.9k per attack. The maximum number of attacks you can do before your opponent becomes "too weak to attack" is ultimately 20, once you reach a certain level (I forget which level)...

[RandomUser]

If you can't get to that chart for some reason, the formula is always (Full building payout) x 15% for the first two hits and 30% for the third hit.

Thanks for the info mate. Not sure I can do the BD runs in the time you did them though. Need to get my IPH up another 1k or so. Plus being mainly a PvE player, I didn't invest too many skill points into stamina, so the raiding may take a bit longer too. Have allied most players I've found who could cause problems, but not too worried considering my A/D stats. Mainly concerned about low ally Dragon players who might boost their ally count up to play with the rest of us.

What, was it only 60k? I feel rather short-changed, would you mind topping up your donation to, say, 150-200k? :p ;)

More seriously, how many stamina points do you have already? If you're PVE-ing, you should be levelling up relatively rapidly - most of my levelling since the low 50s has been due to trying to get boxes to drop in the early parts of auctions. Just add stamina points for a few levels - might not help your BD9 run, but you should certainly have enough points for that to be very handy for BD10.

I'd say you need a minimum of 12 stamina points, and ideally 15-20 (I have 22). That way, if you're lucky enough to chance across a rich, uncollected kingdom, you can raid a minimum of two Manors and two Lenders, Silos or Playhouses (choosing whichever is most lucractive).

By the way, I hope you've already allied Brett and Sir Gavin, both at L68. Brett is the sort of low-ally player you are fearing, whereas Sir Gavin is cA70k at full allies.

Yeah, I think 20 stamina is the perfect amount. Let's you do the max 20 attacks on a player or raid 7 buildings. And replenishes in exactly an hour.

By the way, I hope you've already allied Brett and Sir Gavin, both at L68. Brett is the sort of low-ally player you are fearing, whereas Sir Gavin is cA70k at full allies.

Actually, I'm not too bad with 17 stamina. Thought most PvP players would have double that by now. Like you, I only PvE now for box events to control my levelling, but will prepare map bosses for that extra income.

Plenty of silos and lenders, but no too many manors at this level. Too many players either don't know how to play the game, or level up way too fast. Seen many players with less than 2k IPH and still building inns, playhouses, etc. Got attacked by a player half my stats a week ago - visited her kingdom last night and she could be that rich kingdom you were talking about.

Found another low ally BD10 player last night and sent a request. Allied with Sir Gavin a while ago, but never seen Brett on the rivals list. Maybe he levelled up?

Brett is still on L68, with 166 allies.

I don't have time to play that much due to work during the week and girlfriend at weekends (only around 3000 battles and 5700 raids), so 22 is enough (although 46 would be ideal for me!)... I just target high yield buildings for raids and opponents (usually) significantly above vault for attacks.

For example, I might unload 20 attacks on one opponent for 198k. Even if I'm very lucky and my very next opponent has an uncollected Manor, I should have three stamina available by then. If he has two uncollected Manors, I just sit on his Kingdom until I've got three more stamina for the next Manor.

Also, while I agree that there aren't that many Manors around, Lenders L3-5 and even some Playhouses L4-5 (or better - one guy had L9s!) provide decent takings.

[Diadexxus]

Ahh! I think I might be in this exact state right now. I cannot seem to up my attack or defense hardly at all in the last 20 levels (I am now at level 123). I did this with a few money maker building. I do have a high vault 100k+. But I think my problem is I have way too many weak army characters I "got" from raiding. How the hell can I get RID of them? How can I get higher than my 44k Def??

-J


As the name suggests, you just pitch a tent where you are and don't do anything that would level you up too fast, or at all. You don't do quests, attack/raid other players or kill monsters, and just work at building up your IPH (income) and army to increase your attack and defense stats. Oh, and don't forget to upgrade your vault to the max.

If you level up too quickly without building a stable economy and a strong army, you will struggle to compete with much stronger players at higher levels.

There's a couple ways:

Increase your Allies if you're not already at 500
Max out on 1500 High Priests or Dragons
Max out on 1500 Hawkslayer armors (tho you prolly won't need 1500 as you'll acquired some better along the way pve'ing
Max out on Mail Crushers (highest store bought Def weapons)

Once you accomplish all that, then you'll have to rely on Events or PVE highest maps to pick up better units/equipment.

[Johnny Boy]

It is bracketed with your near-allie count. Meaning that with 3 allies, you might see up to some 13 allies.
That's why, especially camping, you should keep your allies at max (and obviously invest in defense units and equipment).

Is PvP worth it? The more guys I buy to fight, the more I lose. I'm level 101, around 50k a/d and it seems like the only thing paying for PvP is my buildings. I know its not _that_ bad...

I'm slowly investing in high end weapon/armor, but it just seems like PvP is a losing proposition. I've tried buying high-end units like the Manticore or cannons with honor, but I swear it seems like they die first... Low/Very low my eye...

I even seem to lose my good units when attacking much weaker enemies. Raiding seems to be even worse.

Should I avoid PvP? Buy things like battering rams or what?

Thanks!

[jonny0284]

What are your good units? Every single unit (cannon, manticore, battering rams) you listed... are sub-par for your level and what you are trying to accomplish. Also, how many allies do you have?

I have a few recos, but I'll wait to see your response.

I'm just attacking/raiding for experience or money. I have 500 allies (more than that, but 500 seems to be the limit). It sounds like I'm about to be told I've advanced in level too fast for my upgrades...

No. The strength or lvl of your allies has no effect on your own stats.

[akal]

I`ve got something strange in my rivals` list.
I have a chance to see the rivals over 130 - 150 Lvls. It`s very strange, as I`m on 96.
It happened to me twice for the last day, the next change just shows me the list full of 130 - 150 rivals. Of course, it`s nice to check their stats... But what`s going on there?
Anybody else has the same experience?

Alliances - good to add friends to post messages on their walls, good to add former enemies so they don't attack you, and bulk good for raising stats to defeat boss. Otherwise, you can delete a bulk member to add one of the first two categories.

Advice - if you find yourself with lower stats, set a goal on what you want to accomplish. At level 96, you will have some heavy competition. If I was in your shoes, my first goal would be to camp for a long enough time to build my IPH. Then start to build my defense, I would buy High Priest until they no longer raise your defense. Once your defense is high enough, you can set a new goal.

Appreciate any advice on this stage of the game, so i have already started with High Preist up to 55 units now and working on the top up list for allies, Thanks heaps

[akal]

High Preist up to 55 units now
I`m at the same level. Suppose yopu need to be at least 70 - 75 Def., in order to feel more or less safe. This makes about 900 High priests. if you want to start BD-10 run, you `d better be 90 - 100 Def., so need to work on armor also. Or, you need to be very lucky in the events :)
I think that the best attack unit at this level is Siege Tower: it`s cheap, quite effective and 750 - 800 Towers would give you enough attack to make more money on PvP.
As been said before - PvE is not your choice now, so forget about maps for a while. Otherwise you will find yourself over 100 Lvl very quickly, which is not good with those stats....

[Yankeeseven]

I am currently at level 130. I am given option to raid/attack levels 122-136. Why is it I am getting attacked from levels 160-200. Doesn't seem fair!

[Shinazueli]

This is purely a result of mechanics.

Now, I'm assuming you wouldn't like it if you loaded your battle screen and only saw three people on it, yes? Because that's essentially what would happen if they didn't widen the available level bracket for higher levels. There aren't nearly as many people at high levels as there are at the lower brackets.

This is mainly because of the heavy gold spenders destroying that bracket. It'd honestly be nice if they had their own bracket to play in, but then nobody would spend gold and there'd be no game. No good solutions, other than never leveling up. Which is what most smart people that aren't independently wealthy do. Why am I going to spend months playing a game only for someone that spends money like that to wreck me on a daily basis. No thanks.

[Shinazueli]

Also,as a side note.

If Gree offered an option to "lose one level" for 100 gold, would any of you take them up on it? One assumption: any buildings (and associated units) with a level requirement would become inactive if you went below the required level n

[Ratma2001]

I see youcan sell buildings ? i have some Bazaars and market that return little monies? given the level i have them at would it be wise to sell and put in defence items or larger producing Lenders, Playhouse ?

[EiZ]

i have them at lvl 10, lvled them up when i was saving for more expensive upgrades and now they give a great contribution along with my m-caravans, i collect atleast 15times/day, especially during box-events! ofc lenders playhouse would eventually give more than the bazaars, but why not expand and have both!

m-caravans and bazaars = 7500/h x 15 = 112,500 (not quite there yet but soon....)

[Ratma2001]

cheers and thankyou.

[Proprioc3ption]

Quick question, when you click Sell after selecting a building, will it sell straight away or do you get to see how much you get for it and then press, 'are you sure you wish to sell this building?' Simply, do you get a warning if you press sell accidentally, or is that it?

I don't really care what level another player is, I am only concerned with how many allies they have, and what their A/D stats are. Level really does not mean much after all units/buildings are unlocked, since allies and A/D stats are the big factors that determines whether or not someone wins or loses when attacked/attacking.

[fahartle]

Hey guys - I'm thinking of doing some tapjoy "quests" for free gems and am thinking about the best use for em. I can always use more IPH, so I'm thinking about the gold mine. Upgrading the gold mine doesn't require more gems, does it? I can upgrade gem buildings with normal gold? Thanks!

They can be upgraded with plain vanilla gold. Note, if your IPH is low then you may find them expensive to upgrade. However, they give better bang for the buck (gold) when compared to free buildings at the same level. For instance, the last GM upgrade is on the order of a third of the last lender upgrade, gives 300 more IPH, and upgrades in a shorter time to boot. The only downside is that they are a dead giveaway for gem spending for anyone with eyes. So if you still want to be considered a free player for prestige or whatever, that's the only downside.

Also, to do this with tap joy would require an immense amount of time spent downloading free apps, on the order of a day or two of clicking. I know. If you have a job just pull some overtime or something, it's a better time investment. Or do some extra chores for cash if your young enough.

Where are you seeing the word TOURNAMENT? Are you seeing it in your Quests as Tournament Round XX? If so, these are quests to attack another player with a certain number of allies.

[ACBerb]

Are all gem purchased units indestructible, even the lowly 40 gem one?

Thanks...

[Ratma2001]

No i have seen some players talking of TOURNAMENT not a Quest as such, i was under the impression that when you reach a certain level(ie 100) you have another option other than PVP & PVE , whilst my PVP only last 1-2 seconds they say that their was a long battle ? but also they choose what items are allowed in there army ? i have not reached this stage yet but wanted to know if it is there and get some ground work done first ?
Thankyou

[jonny0284]

Yup. No need to worry about 'em. However, as you get better units to replace even the Gem-bought ones, you'll see that you should have not bought the 4-50-60 Gem units. There are way better investments.

[Rapido]

Does the unit boost buildings contribute in the attack vs a boss in a boss event?

Thanks in advance!

[Funkey monkey]

Does the unit boost buildings contribute in the attack vs a boss in a boss event?

Thanks in advance!

No, the boost building do not contribute to the attack.
Raw unit attack + Weapons/Armor Attack + Attack skill points
Only units, weapons and armor that you can use in battle contributes to the attack score
Free = .67 of Gold attack

2 quick questions.

What are the ranks for Forumites based on? I think it's # of posts but not sure. How does one get the title Senior Member? 100 posts?

Also, is there some not obvious way of making the 18 hour buildings worthwhile? For instance, if I collect at 6am, it's not ready again until midnight. This obviously doesn't make me happy, as I don't want to be awake then :(. The best I've been able to come up with is collecting them in the morning and treating them as 24 hour buildings with 3/4 of the IPH. Which makes them rather bad. I'm just trying to map out my upgrade priorities, right now they're on the very bottom of the list, due to this. Well, right before cottages, anyway. Edit: and the castle lol.

Back before I saw the gig with the events, I farmed zombies. Seemed to have the best drop/xp ratio. Sorry if that doesn't help. Edit: honestly, though, the next map is probably your best bet, there's usually a rat equivalent that you can farm ad nauseam.

18 hour buildings are absolutely worthwile.
Indeed you might calculate them as a collect-once-a-day building.
But they do deliver more reliable than the exact 24 hour buildings!
True, they are not on top of the what-to-upgrade-next list, but also not at the bottom
(something you already mention yourself :) ).

Everytime I try to buy equipment. It buys it, once I leave the app and come back, the equipment is gone but along with the money I spent on it... Wtf... I sent a ticket in but never even got A first response on it

[Funkey monkey]

I think Gree is trying to prevent people from cheating.

Before you log out of game, make sure you reconnect to the server.
Easiest way is to go to battle list and hit refresh.

[Selfproclaimed]

I don't get it. If I'm able to buy equipment from the army/ hero section, doesn't that mean I connected ??

[Shinazueli]

I don't get it. If I'm able to buy equipment from the army/ hero section, doesn't that mean I connected ??

In short, no. Only when you load the game, vault your cash, or refresh the battle list does your game talk to the server. If it had to talk for every little transaction and collection it would take forever to do anything.

Edit : also, attacking someone works.

[Selfproclaimed]

Oo. Ok. Gotcha. On KA I just go on, collect,upgrade. I don't bother attacking. But realized I needed equipment. But they were staying,lol. Did the rivals list refresh, that seemed to work.

Hi!
I've been reading through the posts and I haven't seen this question asked or maybe it's an obvious question that I just don't know, but is there a CAP on how much Defence/Attack you can get from an item? For Example: I had 730 Priest with a Total Attack of 73341 & Defense of 73735. I bought an additional 10 Priests (Each having 9 Attack & 28 Defense) for a total of 90 Attack & 280 Defense, but my overall stats stayed the same. If there is a CAP, does anyone have a list of the most stats you can get from an item? Thanks!

It is based on your ally count, which is based on your level.

At level 5, for instance, you can have 25 allies, each bringing 3 units, for a maximum useable unit count of 75.

At level 50, you can have up to 250 allies, each bringing 3 units, for a max of 750 useable units.

This caps at level 100, 500 allies, and 1500 useable units.

If you want to use more units, you either need to add more allies or level up.

If you are maxed out on allies and don't wish to level but want to raise your stats, buy weapons and armor.

Good luck, hope this answers your question.

LOL! Not a hack. Here is what happened. I use an iPod touch to play so I need to use a wireless internet. I was back at my parents house for about a week. I was able to still play the game if I hadn't quit it and tried to re-launch the game. All I could do was turn my iPod on and collect money manually. After a few days, I stopped my for a coffee and used the free wi-fi there. All was good and normal. When I finally got back to my dorm, I needed to switch back to the wi-fi that I share with my friends. When I went to log into the game, it gave me a server error. I tried all day, trying to get back in. Then I searched the internet for a solution. It seemed that people had a problem like this before and what was recommended was to uninstall the game, then re-install it.
I was so scared to do this because I had been collecting money all week and it needed to be updated on the server. After re-installing the game, it successfully allowed me to re-login.
It was at that moment that I saw more than $5M dollars on my account!!!
(I spent it immediately!)

I am level 12 and don't consider myself a camper . I just wait to buy every building and defense per level.and then move on but i just noticed that when i bought 20 beasts (IMPs ) my stats stayed the same. is this a glitch or a way to discourage campers?

There are two possibilities. One you have enough units (based on your ally count) that are stronger than the imps and they have no impact on your stats. For example if you are at level 12 you can have a max allies of 60. Which means you can have 180 total units. If you have 180 siege towers (34/8) than adding 20 imps (18/8) has no impact. The second possibility is that sometimes I have notice the stats don't refresh until you close the game and reopen. Good luck.

[Metajetta]

I know this is just my stupid brain playing tricks on me again, probably. But I MUST know. I played to a fairly high level this summer on a device that broke. I started again a couple weeks ago, after a three month hiatus (nearly). I have this memory that previously, as a "rogue," I had much more advanced hero equipment available after the astral bow and hawkslayer leather. Not counting the gem items. There's nothing now.

I could be entirely wrong - but I am sure I had the astral bow and the armor last time because my kids remember, too. And I'm remembering that I was jonesing after a couple nifty outfits, and I was resigned to a set of flails with much higher attack than "my" bow. (I am picky about my character's looks since I see her attack about two hundred times a day. The animation sequence on impact and first strike melee type weapons (spear, glaive, axe) is horrifying as the character finishes the move ridiculously wide open - head down, one arm stretched into the melee entré like, "Please chop this hand off. It's not my favorite hand."

Anyway, that's kind of how I remember. The kids do medieval martial arts and were looking forward to another period of laughing at mom's character "doing battle." They are already very amused at the majority of the armor, not to mention the fact that most doesn't even fit right on the female character. Playing medieval fantasy games with medieval armament and MA geeks, can be very annoying.

[Cloud22]

The astral bow and hawkslayer have been the best rouge equipment you can buy with gold the rest you have to get though PVE. You probably got the other equipment killing monsters.

[Metajetta]

I never got the other equipment. It was in the store past the items I'd already bought. I was way too wimpy (hero attack) to get into the maps where the really cool equipment dropped. I was stuck in Infested Cavern when I realized I'd way leveled up too fast and had to start camping. I knew those things were out there though, from checking out allies' loot and equipment. There's some armor items several maps up I really hope will work right on the female avatar. They are nothing special in terms of numbers - I'm just a teeny bit obsessed as you can see!

And it's a marker for my memory problem. That has arisen in the period since starting this game. False memories are something I have to track. Thanks! :)

High Priests Stats Not Updated


I'm at LVL 125 (500 allies) and have 967 High Priests (A16/D51). I bought many High Priests units last week but the defense stats wasn't updated??????

I tried to buy 1-2 units daily after that day to test if my stats were updated but still ZERO updates.

I wrote mails to support but to no avail no reply

I have 525 units of Hydra (A60/D58) and their defense stats updates are miserable - ONLY 7 Defense Stats Points

I guess being an active Free Player has all these disadvantages with no replies from support

[jonny0284]

OMG. You have 500 allies. Therefore you can only bring 1500 units into battle.

You have 967 High Priests and 525 Hydras. Let's do the math. 1492 units right there. Do you have any indestructible units better than a Hydra? I'm gonna go to the tune of 8. Yeah?

You are at max. Stop buying more Priests. They aren't contributing anymore to your attack and defense.

[whiterider]

How is it possible that someone with 49k attack breaks my 63k defense? We both are on 270 allies/54 lvl. Prior the new stats it wasnt possible to win with more than 2-3k def/att difference.

ive been raided more than 20 times a day from the same player with a dif to -40k att to my def, he still wins time to time, the guy keeps attacking my bd, now hes lost more than 200 of his strongest units, ive lost 2dragons, 5 prists and 1 hydra....

Hahahaha ha... sorry to have a giggle at you but dude, your no longer contributing increases to your stats with Priests as your army has outgrown their usefulness. In other terms, the units you are at max, which jonny0284 has just explained to you, and adding more high priests will only waste your kingdoms gold. Think of it this way, you have filled the cage with enough hamsters. You can't add anymore! To increase stats you need the next best thing my friend...time to upgrade to DRAGONS!

How is it possible that someone with 49k attack breaks my 63k defense? We both are on 270 allies/54 lvl. Prior the new stats it wasnt possible to win with more than 2-3k def/att difference.

Because as absolute stats go higher, relative percentages fall. I've repeatedly won fights where the defender had 10% more than me, and I've lost (consistently) against defenders with 20% less than me. There's a random PERCENT modifier for each battle, on top of the stat point PERCENT modifier. For straight up attacks, I'd say you need 25% more than the other guy to be absolutely safe(or a substantial difference in stat modifiers), and for defending raids, you need double their stats to never (or almost never) lose. This difference, I suspect, is to encourage you to collect on time.

[Zenobia]

I lol'd at this. I wouldn't be able to attack if every time I saw a boob bouncing around. It's like Kryptonite. You wouldn't even need defenders, just put that avatar out there and everyone who visits your base would be like "oooo, a manor... Is that a boob?!... Stare."

O.K i have been slowly trying to come to terms with NOT leveling up so fast ! so have slowed down and now started my BD run sort of i WAS at 4 now at 7 but my IPH is sad 4,8K but my A/D is now at
55A/59D wich is up 25k from 3 weeks ago so i am CULLING my low level allies that have nothing to offer me as far as BD8+ or high A/Dso as my A/D goes up i am sorting them out to stay around the same No# for now? but with 200+K in vault what do i upgrade ? WT or LM or start with the GM first whilst i slowly increase funds to afford rest of my BD run ? .. i can see plenty of rivals with 70+ A/D so over vault is dangerous unless i can do it quicker but doing IPH is too slow and PVP is painstakingly looking for manors and silo's @ Level 102

I don't understand the question. Perhaps if you would use punctuation I wouldn't have to guess.

I'm guessing this happened. You leveled too fast. Now you look around, and cannot compete on a pvp level. So you looked at the options for making yourself stronger, and realize they all take a long time. Welcome to KA. Grab a Snickers bar.

It's not supposed to be easy or fast, if it was, it wouldn't be worth doing. Just chug along and put some time into it. There's a Disaster Recovery Plan floating about that should help you.

Sorry for no punctuation's , habit, My question is ; CAUSE I LEVELLED SO FAST and now realise my mistake by doing PVE, should I keep my A/D at the current amount, whilst increasing my H/Preist and Ballitic and also reduce my ally count (rid the low A/D players) , as i dont get hit too much by others at the moment , but then when my army is strong enough re-add allies to full ?, this will boost my stats again ? from when i decreased them ?..sliding A/D with allies and army ?
Thanks in advance

Ah. There's not an easy answer to that question. You are kind of screwed, short term. In my experience, there are strong players at every ally count. If I were you, I'd keep max allies to limit the damage you can take, but you won't be able to to over vault for a while in any case. Just stay there and build HPs and then hydras followed by dragons. But it's going to take a while, and you'll be vulnerable, especially if you don't have max HPs. Just chug at it, you'll live.

Yes, what counts is the unboosted attack (without the added attack from boost buildings), which includes the highest attack values from your units, weapons, and armor that you can bring into battle.

quick question, I have noticed that you can add allies once you already have 500 allies, but if you remove someone from your ally list, you go down to 499, what happens when you add someone over 500, i thought they still get added, does it kick someone lower out?

Afaik... If you got 500 and kick one out, you have 499.
If you got 501, then you will use in battle only the first 500 you added. If you kick one, you will have still 500 Allies but now on a total of 500 instead of 501.

[Metajetta]

Until you remove someone you will never be able to interact with the new person as an ally (visit their base, msg, etc). You can add them because your cap doesn't affect THEM.

I'm dealing with this on a lower level - i am someone's ally but they are not on my own list yet. They keep asking me to look at this or that on their base and I keep trying to explain why I can't. The person is not a native English speaker and my grasp of his language is minimal, unfortunately. I haven't checked though - he should have jumped on this last leveling up run!

I need to make a habit of touching base with my earlier allies and weeding out dead ones. I'm active with a good number of my allies and want to continue that as I keep on here. Something to do besides watch the energy bar go up. The forum is nice, too, but there's few here from non-English speaking countries. Since I keep such odd hours it's fun to interact with folks from Finland or Israel at 4 am while doing chores.

Oh, that sucks. I have no idea how many over 500 allies I have. I, too, though, should weed out old, inactive players so that I can actually communicate with new ones I actually want to converse with. How does one find out how many allies one actually have if it's over 500? Not tomention that even though I have added since the oneI dropped it still says I have499. :/

If an ally has dropped off your list or you just want to bump them to the top of your list get them to remove you as an ally and then invite you again. When you add them again they will now be on page 1 of your ally list.

[Metajetta]

All right. Question. I'm at level 57. I think. Please understand I have really severe memory problems so when I look at my stats then write here sometimes I've already forgotten and may mis-quote. I won't be offended if you have access, peek, and correct me on something at any time. :)

I just went over 30K in defense. My attack is 27k maybe? Not that important at the moment.

Income, big issue. Also just went over 3K. That's four figures, not five. :) I've been working hard on this though - at least it's a bit better than level 20 with 800 IPH before Christmas. O_o

Specific question. I've got pretty much every income producing building available except the gem buildings over apothecaries - I do have two of those. I've funded my rehab/camping primarily with raiding and looting maps. Pretty much I'm a free player - only ever bought those apothecaries and recently gems for the latest LTQ.

In my mind, I see income buildings as my "short run" income producers and long wait producers. I'm not clever with money so I just go by the ones I get money from a few times a day, and those that take a while to go off.

My cutoff is six hours, because with my schedule I can catch every cycle in a day for a six hour building. It's also possible to get a lot out of anything shorter as I tromp about with my phone in my pocket. So I can realize pretty close to half the real IPH from a caravan, for instance, and definitely the observatories and so on, with three hour cycles.

I haven't gotten anything leveled up over five or so. I'm going to focus on my silos first, I think. But what after that? The options are driving me batty. Should I bring up my entire economy together (ie, everything to around five, then six, etc)? Should I do one set at a time all the way? If so which ones? The later, more rewarding but harder to expand? Or the little leftovers from the early days - farm, baker, tailor, up to leatherworkers I'd cut that off.

Thanks!

107 with 91750 Defence and 80159 Attack I tried again with another 40k of flaming cats and no difference ?
I have POSet and time ,Valetta,some angel dude and some Hooved cows , also a couple of dragon things . But these would only number about 40 units also some gem units ranging from 200 a/d down to 25a/d but small fry stuff

[jonny0284]

Ok, you're at level 107 with 500(+) allies. So, yes you are working with 1500 units capable of being brought into action. However, you also got 1500 weapons and 1500 armors being brought into battle.

You're saying that you have a load of indestructibles? Better than your Flaming Catapults? Can you snag a screenshot or simply perform a raid/attack and count the amount of units (quantity and all) down until you reach the Flaming Catapult. Do you have Hydras? Do you have Basilisks?

Flaming cats don't make the list ! I have 595 H/Priest 165 Basillsks and 286 Cats ... Drake ballista is the last on battle list 97/86 so other 45 units higher stats ?

[jonny0284]

We'll take this to PM. :)

[Iphazard]

So I'm at level 72 with BD10 (and BK10) but have chosen to remain with a small number of allies (93) until I have a full dragon army each equipped with hawkslayer leather or better armor and mailcrushers or better weapon. I'm currently filled with dragons and armor and am slowly purchasing the weapons slowly (18k a pop). The plan is to ally up slowly and fill in with more dragons and equipment as I go to always stay at peak density. My current A/D is ~36000/33000 and moving up very slowly. I expect it will balloon up quickly once I get the weapons up to count and start the next phase.

Right now I very rarely encounter players with higher A/D although I know you're out there. Given that, I'm reluctant to ally up without the units and equipment to justify it.

My question is: am I missing out? Is there some benefit to having max allies that I can't see? Should I just get the ally count up and fill in later? Or would that just expose me to a lot more stronger players?

I'm sure there is more than one way to skin this cat, but any advice would be appreciated.

is there any differnce on which unit i choose to build up first. Are machine stronger than infantry for instance? just wondering ty

There's 3 numbers that matter when buying units: Attack, Defense, and Casualty Rate. Early on just buy the best units you can without regard to type. Don't forget about casualty rate though - it matters.

Type doesn't matter until mid game when you choose which type you will boost with boost buildings. They are costly but at the highest upgrade lever a boost building (eg Beast Kennel) will boost all A/D stats by 20%. Youll need to focus on one type mainly at that point, but by this point In Your game you will have completely replaced your units anyway so don't worry about this yet.

[bobfishcake]

In order of strength and cost it normally goes.
Infantry
Magic
Machine
Beast

It pays to target specific units though. For example priest and then high priests (both magic) offer excellent defense for the price. Then at some stage you will have to decide if you want to build attack via machines or beasts. Just remember that ultimately you will have to build a dragon army so you can avoid numerous upgrades by going straight to beasts from the more defensive magic units.

Well thats how I see it but people will have different views.

[jonny0284]

Build up your defense early. High Priests = best defense for cost ( 51 / $2800 ) Then immediately run the BD upgrades to the max. I played around a bit with Hydras but lost my way...to be motivated to keep playing this game, eventually you need dragons or you are no longer a contender. Ever. At all. Level up too far (without them) and you'll see that you'll just have to reset the game, because there is no point unless you like meaningless gameplay.

At the same rate, boost your Magic Temple to up your Defense skill. And, build/upgrade that Breeding Den. Can't emphasize it enough.

Hail all,

This event we get a price-unit that has a special skill, it reduces 5% healing waittime or something. Not oo long ago we had a samelike event, which gave a templar champion. That unit also had a special skill.

Problem is, i forgot what skill that was. I can't find it in the game itself (the skill i mean, the unit is there but without the skilltext). Does anybody know where to look up the special skill of such units?

Thanks in advance!

Templar champion is giving 10% more from raiding as far as I remember

Best weapons to buy, bang for your buck ?

[Zenobia]

Best weapons to buy, bang for your buck ?
Depends on the A/D of the weakest weapon you currently bring to battle. And whether boosting you offense or defense is more important to your current situation. If you have units fighting with weapons with 1's and 2's, I recommend getting making sure evry unit has at least a staff of thunder. Only 3/4 but also only $340. If you worst-equipped unit has more than 3/4, well, I keep a little spreadsheet. I know my lowest, plug in the A/D and cost of each weapon, and armor, and formulas spit out what's best for me to buy at the moment. (I made sure I have at least a staff of thunder and also robber doublet for 2 attack ($100) and an adept robe ($160) for 5 defense for each, too.)

ETA if you don't know the value of the weakest weapon you are bringing to battle now, write down your A/D. Buy a weapon with a big A/D. Subtract your old A/D numbers from your new. Subtract those from your new weapon's A/D to get the values of your weakest weapon used.

[Zenobia]

I think it's 20%.
I'm not sure but I think the Templar Champion grants 10% and theTemplar Guardian another 10%. So if you have both, you get 20%. When I had only the champion, I was getting only 10%.

[Zenobia]

Okay, I got mixed up, thanks for clearing it up. It's 20% plus 20% if you have both as opposed to 10+10. I get 12,500 for demolishing a L1 manor with both. I got 10,800 when I had 1. And it's 9,000 if you have neither.

[bobfishcake]

If I sell a building. Say a level 3 manor. Do I get half the total upgrade cost of 350k or half of the upgrade cost that I paid with a level 10 lumber mill of 315k?

[jonny0284]

The lumber mill is a discount perk that doesn't apply any value when re-selling an income building.

So, you get half the money back for a level 3 upgrades only.

What is the maximum number of players who can play together without any hindrance..

I have seen 4 players playing...do any more can play???????

I don't even know what the last two posts are about, can you please clarify?

[Ratma2001]

This has probably been asked before but I can not find the answer
What or where do I find my HERO A/D ...? I can see me Battle A/D but want hero stats..
So if I purchase a HERO item sayMace of destruction does it effect my Battle A/D as well ?

Hero stats is your Hero Strength and the current weapon and armor your hero is equipped with. All other hero equipment goes to army inventory to boost total army stats.

[bobfishcake]

Yes it is also added to your battle a/d.

It's a slow process but I sometimes write down my att/def before purchasing a weapon or armor. You can then see how much your att/def increases. Subtract this for the purchased items att/def to determine the strength of the weapon it has replaced. Knowing the att/def of your weakest weapon or armor helps determine good ones to buy especially at the lower levels.

[Ratma2001]

Thank you King and Bob, I thought it might have been as I did see a slight increase in my stats when I purchased but wasn't 100% .

[Metajetta]

So I'm filling my upper ranks with High Priests since my income now allows this. Apparently they are scary as I haven't been attacked in ages.

My attack units are really sad. I'm still rocking my siege towers and they are dying like flies. Haven't had a chance to upgrade water temple as I've been to concerned with my (still really pathetic) economy. But to be honest, they have medium mortality and are in the ranks of my top offensive units.

What should I aim for next? I've been upgrading my unit buildings "as needed" but it won't take too long to get any of them up where they are needed, even max. Even my BD is level two. But don't say dragons, lol. That goes in the category of, "If wishes were horses we'd all be eating meat."

Thanks!

[RandomUser]

When I was where you were, I alternated between building economy and upgrading my BD. Since I played frequently throughout the day, I focused on upgrading the buildings that would boost my coffers the fastest - not necessarily the ones that would pay off the investment the fastest. So for me, it was bazaars, merchant caravans, farms, and manors. I worked hard to time all the upgrades so that I didn't have anything idle while I was sleeping. I also worked hard to make sure I had enough coinage to start the next upgrade as soon as the one I was finished was ready. Spreadsheets work well for this - you can plan your next upgrades, what they'll cost, what discounts you can get (lumber mill), how long they'll take, and when you plan to start them. You can even figure out how much you're going to collect by then and ways to supplement that income with PvP or PvE earnings.

In the meantime, keep adding to your High Priest Army when you're over-vault and make yourself as unattractive as possible to looters and marauders. :)

I've been studying the KA spreadsheets and minus the manors I think I will go this route. I have apothecaries and some other "short run" buildings that I see will be extremely unttractive to looters, but produce plenty of income. I call those big buildings, the lenders, playhouses, and manors, looter magnets. I've only added them when my defense was high enough, to send the message I wasn't fooling around. Lol! Prob it will be the same with manors. I counted up my six hour or less income producers and if I level them all up three more times, to eight or nine, my real income will be enormous (and my "paper" income madly high) without changing my looter exposure significantly. I think I'll leave the manor project as a post-dragon challenge.

What I think I'll do is alternate lumber mill during the day and money buildings at night for a bit. My first goal is getting my silos up to ten, straight run - I'll finish that first.

Thanks!

I believe that this is exactly what I would have done now knowing what I know the smaller more quicker paid buildings are the key! And as a consistent raider I am always looking for the BIG building first , when I go into a kingdom a quick scan for Manors then playhouses, lenders and silos if none available I check their stats to seeif over vault if not I move on to the next LITTLE building dont yield as much and cost me more in units than the return but for the owner can yield a lot more income in quicker time thus letting you buy units today rather than tomorrow! Also keeping me out cause its not worth mt while to attack such buildings, I have Manors @ 2 and lenders @ 1 , playhouse @ 4 and thats it butmy Defence is high enough to stop most but keeps the higher player at bay with not much to offer..only if I don't collect on time but I have collections arranged so they fall 1 in the morning and 1 at nite! Can't be to easy for them it's all about timing, go for the small building and buy your units from this.

[Mickeytah]

Where are some good areas to find enemies that put out at least 15,000 upon defeat? So far, the best I have found is the Kraken's Eye in Shipwreck Cove.

Quickie question

With Factions etc going to CC and MW - when is it coming to KA.

do you happen to be a rogue and have rose plate armor (the one from the Set LTQ) As your best armor? That crashed my device, luckily I went on to get Steppe Leathers.

Thanks Jixx...I think you're bang on there...I reinstalled the game, and it gives me a brief chance to go to my profile, but if I wait for the picture of the rose armor to load, it crashes. I think this will be helpful info in my ticket. Btw, has anyone else submitted a ticket for this problem?

Yep - response was that it is a known problem that is being worked on.
Also crashes when trying to view rival's profile in pvp if they have the Rose armour...

More tickets don't hurt though - can help demonstrate the scale of the problem!

Can you loose armor and weapons when doing pvp fights like you do with your units? If so, is it better to buy good weapons and armor instead of units that can be lost? I loose a ton of basilists and they are 5000 a pop. Just wondering. Ty

No, your armor and weapons stay just as tight as they've always been.

And with them still tight, you don't lose them, either.

Yeah, it's the same way for me. I had the Ogre Brawler in all my animations for an incredibly long time. It didn't change until I got the Gale Dragon. I'd like to see my Battle Avatar or Sea Terror in a fight, though.

I thought your best x units were chosen to fight every battle (where x = 3 times your number of allies). For offense this would be the best offensive numbers and for D it would be the defensive stats.

The animation may not necessarily be consistent ... I almost always get Death Knights on the animation and I don't think they make it to battle anymore.

That is correct.

The problem is that it is consistent. I'd rather it weren't so consistent. Vallata would be nice to see, too.
