Sanctuary Guide

Base development is the foundation of your account. Every building in your sanctuary contributes something — military strength, economy, hero progression, or alliance utility. Knowing what to prioritize prevents the bottlenecks that cost most players weeks of progression.

Your Sanctuary is the central building that gates the upgrade level of nearly every other structure. Upgrading the Sanctuary should never stop — but it should never run alone either. The buildings below need to climb alongside it.

Sanctuary

The heart of your base. Its level caps every other building. Always queued, always progressing.

Builder's Hut

Unlocks additional construction queues. More queues = more parallel upgrades = faster account growth.

Resource Production

• Farms, Lumber Mills, Herb Gardens — steady passive income for upgrades and training.
• Warehouse — protects your stockpiles from raids.

• Barracks & Training Grounds — train and house your troops. Keep training queues running constantly.
• Hospital / Infirmary — heal wounded troops cheaply. Critical before any major battle.
• Walls & Towers — passive defense that punishes lazy attackers.
• Embassy — receive alliance reinforcements during rallies and sieges.

These buildings increase long-term account power.

• Research Lab — unlocks technologies that improve nearly every aspect of the game.
• Gear Workshop — crafts and upgrades equipment.
• Smelting Workshop — produces materials used for gear upgrades.
• Weaving Workshop — produces enhancement materials for equipment progression.
• Epigraph Workshop — unlocks and upgrades Epigraphs for additional combat bonuses.

Research and enhancement buildings provide permanent account-wide power increases.

• Raven Nest — home of your Raven and primary Raven management building.
• Raven Workshop — used for Raven upgrades and enhancement systems.
• Falcon Tower — supports Raven development and provides additional bonuses.

The Raven system becomes one of the largest sources of power as your account progresses.

• Tavern — hero recruitment and acquisition.
• Arena — competitive hero battles against other players.
• Black Ops — special missions and reward opportunities.
• Explorer's Camp — exploration activities and progression content.
• Curio Hall — collection and artifact-related features.

• Alliance Stable — alliance caravan and transportation systems.
• Private Stable — personal caravan management and rewards.
• Nomad Trader — special merchant offering items, resources, and valuable purchases.

Every building eventually matters, but if you can only push a few at a time, do them in this order:

• 1. Sanctuary
• 2. Builder's Hut
• 3. Research Lab
• 4. Barracks & Training Grounds
• 5. Resource Production Buildings
• 6. Raven Buildings
• 7. Gear & Enhancement Buildings

Keeping these progressing alongside your Sanctuary will ensure steady growth and prevent bottlenecks later in the game.
