Your voice is absolutely incredible. Thanks for the good info 👍

Interesting. So I never used this tool on my end, and explored it after watching your video. I'm a newer player and recently built my HC in the last month, leveled it to 58 since then and got my fighting collections at every level. The stats displayed for it were very clearly incorrect. I believe what I'm seeing reflects a loss of data that I've notice in GBG stats every time my computer does a late night update and the browser is closed. Maybe that's a cache setting I have for FOE helper or my browser, but it makes me suspect of long term data collection tools like that. Thanks for the new videos! Love your content, by far the best FOE explainer series I've seen.

You are my favorite FoE person on KZfaq, though I watch several others too. You helped me up my game from HMA. I like studies like this one concerning certain GB's and how important they are for us. I'm in Artic now and the entire game has changed for me in a good way. I have noticed that diamond production has slowed to a crawl in nearly every way, and thats not cool... Thank you so much for your videos!

You can get to a point with Antiques dealer selling stuff you can start to buy all 6 items just for the Castle System points as well.

Glad to see you posting again. Welcome back! I also keep HC around just to grow supplies like the previous comment. SC an island I got rid of awhile ago. ToR I keep just to keep feeding the antique shop. I don't really buy anything from there but you never know if they add something in the future hope this helps a bit.

Space Carrier and Himeji give a lot of Goods, as well as a decent amount of forge points, and a few diamonds. Totally worth it for me. Interestingly, they also give Rogues, meaning that you safely delete your Alcatraz if you have SC and/or HC, with a high enough attack boost, especially with newer Unit-producing event buildings like the Vibrant Sunflower Oilpress, ViceRoy's Villa, and upgraded Winter Wonderland Pyramid.

Congratulations! I started last year and quickly realized that fighting focus was the most efficient. I have never built a ToR, and only plan to build the SC when I get to AF/OF. You did make me reconsider building the HC though :)

Im still a fan of Himeji Castle since outside of GBG there arent many good ways to accumulate supplies - also the goods and fps are nice. I recently deleted the ToR and never built the Flying Island. Never was a fan of the Flying Island. I also recently deleted my AI Core and my Atomium recently since we have no need for extra SAT guild goods

Good Overview as to worth of GBs .On the bye where in Helper is that view found

I dont know, maybe it is really bad luck, but a Himeji at your level (91+) should produce about 90 Fps per Day and 170 Goods. Maybe your Helper didnt count all the data, because it only counts if you play on this specific pc, if you play on multiple pcs or mobile your data is lost. For Space Carrier ist the same at lvl (91+) it should provide 90 Fps and 170 Goods per Day + the other rewards. But you have to play everyday for that and make every 10 fights/10 negos per day. Which can be hard for negos if you are not in Mars. But doing negos every day is important to lvl up your Castle of the Castle System. My TOR is only slightly higher, but still has way better results. Here its the same if you collect relics on mobile or other pc they dont count in the helper. Its important to understand how leveling it works. The Chance on getting more relics declines in the higher lvls and only rasis 0,25 every few lvls, but the chance to get gold over jade relics increases every level and the chance of getting silver decreases. If you dont know what to do with antiques dealer stuff: Buy everything everyday and resell it. It provides you with castle points which will ultimatly result in nice (permanent) bonuses. Flying island. I would agree, it was always very niche, but now with better and better event buildings it is hard to justify. I will probably delete it soon too.

Do not be afraid to delete GBs. There are a handful you should keep. Most of them simply aren't worth building or keeping. You do not need GBs that produce forge points. You can make more FPS doing 10 minutes of GBG than any of them will give you. Get a bunch of recent event buildings and you'll be just fine. Even if you lose 75% by deleting a level 100 CDM so what ? 100 makes no difference when your attack is 4K+. You'll make the rank points loss back in a single season of GBG.

My level 17 flying Island gave me 50 diamonds 4 times last month.

3 days ago was at the same point and without Helpers data. Deleted FI, SC, GT, SG all was @~70lvl. Now I'm sure and delete HC and ToR aswell. Thank you for the vid.!

What are your thought on the Seed Vault? So far, I like mine.

It isn't just HC, ToR but given the influx of special buildings is the CDM worth the space or further investment? SOZ just on it size will always be a solid GB. But other GBs like the TA don't look worth at all given the cost it takes to upgrade and the special buildings that provide a cheaper alternative. So much it feels it getting power crept out. I mean Harvest sets used to be the gold standard for attack but now? Are they worth it, when you're getting 2 x 2 buildings in events that require no roads that surpass the wheat fields etc? Game it feels is racing away with special building stats and it is making choices tougher and tougher with space. I have always preferred the minimalist approach to get most bang for buck in AA and AD. I believe that is still way to go as it also allows concentration of Fps on a less GBs so easier to level them. Yet...given new attrition in GBG is there a point that increasing AA and AD is a waste of time? So much needs to be addressed game is in a real flux. For the flaws in old GBG and events it provided a pretty clear path for progress, now that path feels muddled and has made the AD and Tavern almost useless. I mean with AAs approaching 5k+ who needs a 30% boost? Even in events despite all the shiny new toys there are serious flaws. Daily specials are becoming less and less attractive. Also mini game rewards are often useless, BPs, drummers etc why are we getting them well past their usefulness? So many questions for Inno to answer and I fear their "solution" will always be ways to milk more money from us rather than creating a more coherent game.

It depends on how you spend your time in FoE and what are your goals? Do you just log in to collect each day? or do you do a lot of GBG and GvG? Also, what buildings do you have to replace them? The GBs don't have to be your most productive buildings...just more productive than your worst buildings. Your numbers seem way off from what's listed in the wiki. Last I checked the wiki was fairly accurate...was there a stealth nerf? For example, for the HC you show about 28.5 FP/day and 26 goods/day. You should be getting around 90 FP and 170 goods/day (on average). You might want to track your outcomes for 10 days or a month to see if FoE tracker is right. The difference is so great it could easily sway your decision the wrong way. Also, what are your goals? Do you care about city ranking points? A leveled GB is worth tons more city ranking points than a special building. If you care about city ranking points then a GB would have to have significantly bad efficiency to warrant it's removal (note: I've removed a Capitol and ToB). GBs represent a significant investment of resources and time...not to be thrown out casually :) The HC and SC are virtually identical (other than the spoils of war vs diplomatic kits). I use diplomacy in GE to use my 10 SC chances (since I can use my worthless tavern silver to get an extra chance) and HC chances in GBG, PvP tower, etc... {note: the last breakpoint for HC, SC and BG is level 91. So, imo, it's worth reaching the last break point but not any more levels}

SC and HC give about the same rewards. I use the 4 lesser exploration sites in titan to negotiate as they are cheap with respect to goods, and I don't need to spend any diamonds to finish them. It does not take any time to do 4 every few hours to collect all the rewards. I would keep the tor as I always go to at least level 4 and you might as well get the extra rewards for no extra work. I never built flying island as it looked like a tota waste of space. As the bldg creep accellerates all the great bldgs start to lose their luster. Attack bldgs that give attack bonus can be matched with 3 bldgs from current events. But I don't delete them as I spent thousands of fp's over the years and just when I would start to remove them, inno would upgrade the points to reflect the inflation in the game.

I’ve never built FI, it didn’t look like a good return for space. I’ve deleted my SC in my main world. The special goods production is useless as you get above about SAAB- you can continue to produce P & O special goods if you need them from your ships, but the SC will give you lots of those instead of higher age special goods that you need. Basic strategy- wait to build SC until you hit AF, run it up to about 40 there, run it to 58-61 in Oceanic, delete it in SAAB or SAV. In Space Ages just camp an extra week or so to get the special goods you need from that era thru SAT. Also, I hate negotiations.

I use my TOR in a swap with a guildmate to just boost fp inventory. Any rewards us just a bonus.

looking at your drops makes me think you're playing on mobile / different devices, could this be the case?

this data is wrong, 120 forge points in 1 month, that's what you get per week AT LEAST

Deleted my ToR in SAAB….Once in Titan dropped SC. Both were waste of space

I would delete that Babel before anything.

You didn't say anything about the Colosseum. Everybody can use more happiness in their life. ;-)

So Space Carrier is not especially productive when you don't do negotiations? In other news, bears defecate in woodland areas

SC is also nice, when comes new age, because every 70itch special goods more are nice too get. But I also negotiate daily on the 5 exploration sites - so no probs to use all charges. FI I now have only for easthetics. Himeji is still nice for me, it gives me something and I always fight. ToR I will maybe delete in future.

Hi, I just came across this video, sorry to say but you don't play that much. looking at your stats for the 2 months you selected and my stats over 1 month for TOR, SC, HC and even incidents in FOE Helper, I have more than double the rewards than you do in half the time. my GBG's are - TOR LVL 80, HC LVL 62 and SC LVL 91. Never built the Flying Island, did not think it was worth building even though it is one of the best looking GB's.

I dont know how you can have such terribly low numbers in your FoE helper. Specially for Himeji... either you have some data loss or you were using himeji charges on your phone and therefore it is missing from helper. Because my himeji is 91 and when I opened my helper from 1.-30. November these are my results... 50 goods 27 10 forge points 23 5x rogue 20 50 forge points 17 125 goods 14 200 forge points 6 10x rogue 5 50 Diamonds 4 You have in TOTAL 12 rewards in a month (which is not possible to get such a low result), I have 116 rewards. Conclusion: your numbers are way off base and totally wrong.

do not delete ToR! with new events overpowered buildings u will replace ALOT of buildings in most cases very often, so store item from ToR is great to use for redesign remove old stuff (and sell them) then redesign layout if nec. then plant the new better buildings, ToR also feeds the Antiques dealer with items and is great for upgrading all stuff when you age up, it should never be deleted, ever. Tor feeds the AD wich feed castle wich will add more bonuses to your town without using any space increasing your overall efficiancy, its alot better than many think.

I'm surprised the returns on your HC are so "low". I seem to hit the 200FP returns about twice a month, so maybe you just had a bad month for it (my HC is 91). I'm still in Tomorrow era so haven't built the SC yet, and I've given up on the settlements having done the first four, and can't be bothered slogging through the Mughals so no need for the FI. ToR still has it's uses and the odd 100FPs here and there are always useful, and it's still fairly cheap, though I'd left it about 65 as I was trying to hit more gold relics for the FP returns.

i think your data provided from the plugin is not accurate, it could be due to some caches or i don't know, but i can say for sure i get a lot more rewards from my HC(77) and SC(76) and ToR (80) for a month and i am not always playing on the PC to collect that data inside the plugin

unless you have very low ToR level your stats is wrong i think my stats form ToR from last month (level 83) - november: units = 1.1 unit per day + 1.3 rouge per day goods = 43.3 goods per day FP = 22 fp per day reno kits = 2 in month one up kit = 6 in month store building = 3 in month other buildings = 39 in month total (but yes - in general I agree that its not great - but im out of store buildings and reno and one up i should also need if they realease new age and have one up 100 of buildings perhaps in future...)

I definitely think some of those rewards stats are incorrect on FoE Helper. As someone mentioned in a comment down below, it could be a cache problem or something to do with how the tool handles updates (both to the game itself and maybe even one's own computer?). Not sure exactly what the reason is, but the poor return from your ToR, being as high level as it is, just doesn't add up IMO. I definitely think you should be seeing quite a few more 100 FP and one up kit/reno rewards than 1 or 2 in a month, that just doesn't make any sense to me at all. Mine is only at like 66 or 67 and I definitely get more than what was displayed for you, and by a pretty comfortable margin. On the SC thing, I have mine around the same level as my HC for now (59 and 58 respectively), and one's basically a carbon copy of the other in terms of reward rates (and reward type as well, for the most part). I'm in OF right now, so it definitely helps getting some extra Oricalchum, but I also just love the fact that I basically have 2 Himejis now, and with the Castle system in place, it now makes sense to actually try and negotiate enough to at least burn all of your charges every day (when GE/GBG are running). I definitely think it's worth the FP investment at least up to 58 or so (for that 9th charge), though not too sure beyond that level what the added marginal benefit is. Regardless, those GB's are like little slot machines in your city, and they add a level of excitement to logging in each day. I also built an FI for the same kind of excitement, but the rewards are truly pitiful, and I'm probably going to delete mine soon as well. The ONLY reason I even have it at this point is to liven up the cultural settlements just a tad, because they really are such a draaaaaaag.

Dude , you rock , but your stats are pants! Forge on!

I dont level a Tor past 50 .it's a good troop producer and good for rogues ,due too recent changes I found the best thing I did was delete a trap in all my worlds .. HC is great all round .. but again I dont go past 58 ..

also HC stats is wrong it think :D - you probably had foe helper update and all data is erased on it i would imagine :)

Dude, your stats are obviously wrong. A level 97 HC should give you nearly 5 rewards per day on average, totaling around 150 per month if you fight daily. Your are showing 12 HC rewards for a month. Doesn't that sound off to you?

Getting 8 shards in a month from flying island seems wrong. Are you collecting your shards on your phone? If your island is 60 with 37% chance, you should have like... 60 fragments or more.

One month of data for these buildings is just not that much. It's true they suck however.

Your FoE helper plug-in is giving you false information. There's no way you're only getting 12 rewards from HC in an entire month. At level 91 the HC gives roughly 4.9 rewards per day. 12 rewards sounds more like 3 days, not 30 days. Same with TOR, at level 90+ you should be getting 20+ relics per GE, there's no way those numbers are possibly accurate.Those numbers look like they're from a single GE and not from 4 GE's. If you do the math on TOR, it gives ~160 FP per week on average, at level 97.

Really, deleted the FI yet keeping the ToB, SMB, and Cape? The FI is much smaller and gives way better when it does produce then those do (less CC). Talking about the SC, ya I despise negotiating as well, but it gives the 200 FP packs it seems in groupings, one month will be none, the next month will be 3 a week. The most important thing to consider, what are you going to put in it's place? I see you have tons of room in your city now, why delete anything? You are sitting here with 4 crows nests.. Guessing these are the targets of your BG? You would be better off leveling the SV and using the BG attempts on the higher bldgs such as the labatory and high FP or goods bldgs. Also please please please would ppl stop posting 'expert' videos with a Tower on Conjunction connected to a road
