Villagers

Your core progression building — upgrades here impact overall growth and long-term efficiency.

Progression Speed Economy

Best Uses

  • Faster overall growth through quicker building upgrades
  • Better event prep by timing big upgrades during the right days
  • Improves your ability to keep pace with server progression

Recommended Priority

  1. Construction Speed (top priority)
  2. Yield Boost (overall economy support)
  3. Free Construction Time (lowest value)
🏗️

Trait A — Construction Speed

Increases construction speed by X%.

⭐ ⭐⭐⭐ Top priority (best choice)
🌾

Trait B — Yield Boost (Timber, Stone, Ruby, Meat & Medal)

Increases yield speed by X%.

⭐ ⭐⭐ Good overall, but still focus on Construction Speed
⏱️

Trait C — Free Construction Time (sec)

Free construction time: X seconds.

⭐ ⭐ Not worth it
Trait What it does Best for Pick
Construction Speed Increases construction speed by X%. All players, all stages (especially early & mid game) Primary ⭐⭐⭐
Yield Boost Increases yield speed by X% (Timber, Stone, Ruby, Meat & Medal). Economy support once your build queue is stable Secondary ⭐⭐
Free Construction Time Grants free construction time (X seconds). Very early convenience only (low impact long-term) Low ⭐

✔ Do

  • Prioritize Construction Speed first — it accelerates everything
  • Use major castle upgrades during event days that reward building progress
  • Stack this with speedups for peak efficiency

✖ Don’t

  • Over-invest into Free Construction Time (low value long-term)
  • Spend speedups randomly outside events if you can avoid it
  • Split priorities too early — lock in the best trait first

Pro Tips (Quick Wins)

  • When you’re pushing castle levels, Construction Speed gives the best return on every upgrade.
  • Once your castle upgrades slow down, invest into Yield Boost to strengthen your overall economy.
  • If you want fast KvK prep, plan big upgrades for the correct event day and finish them with speedups.
