I have 14 x gold buildings so far, and i'm actually struggling to spend the speed-up tokens.
1 gold speed up token will burn through 12 hours of production in 1 hour, that means you need to have a LOT of materials to use them in time. I need to use 1-2 gold speed up tokens just to keep up with collection (you can only hold 5 gold speed-up tokens).
Whilst the production time is good, i'll often run out of materials before the hour is up.
I'm actually focusing on silver buildings now, since 4x speed-up is more value for money. Gold is good with time constraints, but silver is more cost effective. I would also like to do a lot of bronze buildings too, they would really come in handy on the smaller builds like Building Supplies Store and Hardware Store.
Bottom line: Don't get caught up on trying to make gold buildings. Make a lot of bronze to begin with, then a lot of silver. Gold is really only beneficial on commercial buildings like Farmers Market (lengthy build times), and you might not even have enough materials to use the full 1 hour speed-up.
Honestly, that's quite an achievement... 14 Gold Epics?! Congrats!! :D
I'm still trying to collect a variety of Speed-up Epics, after all, there are 3 different types. xD
My disappointment is that while trying to make a "Winter Village" I discovered that the bronze and silver Epic buildings look identical. I have 2"Building of Alpinism". One is a Silver & one is a Bronze. I was hoping for more visual diversity, but... Maybe in an update.
- Anonymous10 years agoI forgot yesterday to give credit to troyparry74 for his insights on attacking these epic projects. Thank you for sharing...
I completed my second silver epic today and it was everything my first one wasn't. As easy as the first one was, the second was completely the opposite. It was s transportation epic again, and it asked for everything that I didn't have. At one point, three tasks were requiring 13 backpacks & 2 of these were 3 point items. I spent over 50k simoleans and maxed out my storage of 220. Still I was able to collect 83 tokens in about 6 and a half hours.
Thanks for the insights on gold. I think Ill stick with silver
