F2P strategy

F2P Spending Guide

If you are playing free-to-play, steady progress comes from resource discipline more than chasing every short-term upgrade.

Golden rules

Resource discipline beats panic spending

Diamond Discipline

Never spend diamonds on the Tavern or speed-ups. Spend on event shops, Wheel Tokens during faction week, and VIP Points instead.

Guild Value

You need an active guild. Every time a spender buys a pack, guildmates get chests. If your guild is quiet, leave.

The Meat Economy

Meat is a major bottleneck. Use the Resource Store daily and trade excess wood or stone for meat.

Breaking F2P: low-spender value

If you decide to spend $5-$20, do not buy random packs. These are the purchases that are most likely to be worth it.

Growth Fund

Best value in the game. Yields roughly 40,000 diamonds as you level up. Requires Level 30+ for full value.

Monthly Privilege

Unlocks Auto-Hunt and daily stamina. Huge quality-of-life improvement.

Daily Special

Grants Star Gems. Use these gems only for the 10-hour speedups.
