No instant troops in Age II. It would be ridiculous if there was. The drafts Atlantis and 16s would get wouldn't be unreal making them pretty much untouchable. Which i why i think evony removed Instant Troops in Age 2
Yeah, everything said above is accurate. They all stole my thunder!
Would be terrible if there were insta-troops on Age II, all you need is some gear and a star set and BOOM BOOM BOOM. Plenty of free resources and troops as it is, no need to speed up gameplay even more (could be a nice twist, though)...
think a 1023 max attack hero gives u at the quickest 17 second archers
thats the max attack u can acheive on age 2
Yeah they set up the timers differently on Age2 so that you can never have instant troops of any kind. And with the hero lvl cap they ensured it even further :\ *misses instant arch heroes from age1* lol
no instatroops.. early on in the server the coiners and big spenders usually buy to max their gear out all to lv10 then either farm gems like crazy to upgrade their stars or buy the gems, and constantly run excals for the +25% attack- when building troops +25% attack also means 25% faster production..
also personally. ( i spend way more time than i should on evony _ but more active ppl should run low pop, high barracks cities- i run only 3 lv10 cots in each city except my 2 warcities which each have only 2 lv10 cots, this gives me lower population but room for alot more (20-25) barracks, more barracks = faster production- on na25 i have a 15 set and 1k - 1010 attack hhs, i can put out roughly 700k arch a day on all arch..
ppl starting off try to achieve these levels as fast as possible- really only way to do this early on is to spend $$- get ur 10 cities and build build buld...
The ratio of barracks to cottages depends on your attack hero and build time. For 30 second archers, the optimum barrack/cottage ratio is 2 barracks for every 1 cottage. More barracks or less cottages means you will produce less archers per day than maximum.
It also depends on the number of times you queue troops each day.
True... but I suspect a lot of us (especially those of us who regularly post here) are likely online quite a bit and have evony running the in background. At a net admin/systems programmer, I'm probably in front of the computer 12 to 15 hours a day.
*sigh* how i love glitches
they will never scrap instant troops on age1, thats why they changed it for age2. age1 would die off completely if they did and they would loose that whole avenue of revenue.
I think calling instant heroes a "glitch" is a poor use of that word. There wasn't anything special done to accomplish the instant heroes it was just normal leveling of heroes therefore it is more of an unforeseen side-effect of leveling heroes. Also to change the troop timers or anything of that nature would have such a big impact on other programming parts of the game that it would make little or no sense just to do it from THAT ... not to mention the death threats that would end up on the forum, the money lost, or the bombs that ppl would inevitably be placed at Evony HQ ...
I don't think it was a glitch, just lack of planning and foresight on evony's part

Here's a thread and spreadsheet I made on attack and troops times for ageII

Instant troops on age 2 are just as commonplace as age 2 bots.
Like thats holding evony back? I've seen plenty age1 killing actions of evony.
Captcha, broken gates, Alliance cooldown, valley transfer trick.
Seen scores of people quit over these things.
I'm sure Evony would put a final nail in the coffin without a second (probably also first) thought.
yeah keep telling yourself that odin only part of ure statement is true:)
u should know right? i have seen u say there are no age 2 bots many many times on this and other forums,its funny normally someone has something to hide when they say something that they know aint true so many times
just saying;P
lol that sucks no insta heroes on Age 2 another reason on why it Age 2 sucks :D
personally i think age 2 is better when it comes to troop building bcause if u dont have a limit on troop build time then the coiners can take out the noncoiners or noobs right away and that would suk. even though instant troops sounds awesome think of the bad things that can come out of it.
and i know some age 1 fan is gonna say" the coiners wont be able to do that to others "well it can and it would suck if u were on the alliance at war with them.
To be perfectly honest i dont think evony would have a single problem or care about that fact. I think the bigger issue would be ppl capping hcs so easily and so quickly that they might as well just have another age1 ... and also, u can have a VERY VERY powerful hero without coining on age1 (because of the unlimited lvls which is how instant troops are attained) it would therefore NOT be in evony's interest to make hero levels with instant troops available because they will not be able to get as much money.
There are a number of bots operating on Age2 and Evony hasn’t been able to crack down on them for two years and there are glitches for instant troops on Age 2
guys how to draft other players? can any one tell me?
Heros with 800 +attack normaly have good leadership meaning that your troops work 2-3 times better witch in my opinion better than insta troop.
