    Default Quickest to farm 5s.

    I am not sure who is the fastest to ever farm 5s from when a server opens, but I think i am one of them.

    I posted this in a thread on age 1 server discussion.

    Hear are the rules to this claim.
    1. You cant coin beyond 35$
    2. You cant have won a Mech Bat
    3. Cant have won 300 or more cents. (that to me is the same as coining, lol)


    Here is what I do on a new server in a nut shell

    1. I spent 35$
    2. the first 12 hrs or so in a brand new server resources sell high, i sold most of the 200k of each resource.
    3. Got th to lvl 4 and spun all the cents away, got a lot of resources but no mech bat or mars hero. I sold most of those resources. I ended up with 3.5m gold for all my research while in bp.
    4. Got my resource fields established in my first city, and started a second, transfered resources to get that cities resource fields established.
    5. I do 6 cotts, so i max out the cotts to lvl 5 (highest you can get in bp) and then maxed out my resource prod to the lvl of pop i had. I ran 9 lumber, 6 stone and 6 iron.
    (i hate playing the market for resources so i go kind of even so i dont have to.)
    6. Once my res. prod. is maxed I go straight for lvl 9 rax and techs needed for building listae. it takes about 5 extra hrs to get lvl 6 metal casting and if you que 200 balistae you save 10 hrs........so its worth one more lvl before you que.
    7. Arch 8 is my main concern first, after i get that started i que 200 listae in both cities and apply a napolian to both of the ques, and apply your excal before you make the que.
    8. After balls are qued i start a barracks to lvl 6 so i can que my trans, usually do 300 per city.
    9. Make sure you dont forget about hbr lvl 5
    10. Once all this is done you have nothing to do but wait for everything to finish, this is when i build all my barracks to lvl 4.
    11. after all my barracks are lvl 4, you have about 1-3 days left for everything to finish, depending on what speed ups you used and what heros you have, i dont do anythign but build ats during this time, and heres why.

    Some people build troops in bp but since you cant farm in bp it kills your food, and remember i dont like to play the market and have to worry about a food bill while in bp. ATs dont make a food bill and have a greater defending advantage.


    The only thing that i got from the wheel that i know contributed to this going to fast, was i won a master guidelines.......used it on arch 7 and knocked 24 hrs off

    Sell as much as you can, and buy lumber and Iron when the market goes below 1. Usually by the next morning. Make a killing. Enough to make 3 Rax9s.
    300 coins from the package you bought, will make them fast. The rest gets put together very easily.
    I cant see this working better at all.

    I got 3.5 mil gold from selling alot of resources in the first few hrs, since resources sell usually 5+ then. By the time i got maxed stone prod, stone would be down to .5 or less.
    Where would i get the 1.2 mill gold needed for lvl 8 arch (that is only calculating from lvl 5 to 8 arch), not to mention gold for HBR, come from?

    Your saying to speed up buildings with the 300 cents? In my mind using cents for speed ups is a complete waste, you usually get better stuff from the wheel. You still have to wait on arch lvl 8 to get done, so why the rush to get balls so fast?

    I had enough resources and never had to stop and wait to build anything, nor stop to research anything.


    Im not saying your way isnt better, im just saying i dont see how it can be.

    Is there really, no experts out there that can give advice on a faster way to farm 5s with 35$ and no mech bat? Surely im not the best.

    I think you confused them when you said you couldn't spend more than $35

    I build to lvl7 th asap with the 200k each resource. Nothing else really. Then I sit and spin. Odds are I get some speedups + some troops in random battallions.

    Also, because I went to th7, I have oodles of resources from the spins. I build to lvl9 rax, a few cotts, and academy. I talke arch to lvl7 with speedups. I then start on hbr/mt etc.

    Usually, by beginning of day 3 I can farm lvl1-3. Wait on arch8 and continue building ballis. (oh btw I sent my intel out on a few farming runs before arch8)

    Day 5. Random port out of my crappy field. Build a nice one, farm 5s.

    ^^^the above is predicting I win minimal speedups from the wheel

    I also just did the above (farming 5s) with 0 coin on s160 in 6 days. So save your money if that's all you're going to spend.

    -----

    More fun method:

    150 dolla; farming by hour 4. Much the same as the above. Buy autocents = 100 free ammies. Spin spin spin at th7. Build the rax speed up arch 8, farm. Odds are you win a mech batt on those 100 spins plus some of the 1770 cents you get. So all to pay for to speed up is arch8. (saving all speed ups given to you at beginning of game)

    LOL, so in other words no you cant do it faster lol.

    All your saying is go straight for farming techs and the ability to build balistae, which is what this thread is about. Only how fast can you do it with 35$ and no mech bat. Going to th lvl 7 would not have helped me at all, since i never had to wait on resources or gold, it would have actually slowed me down since i would have had to use speed ups (i would have used on techs) or wait for it to build.

    Now if i was coining 100$+ then th 7 is a great idea since you will most likely win enough to either start farming imediately or start building bals imediately.

    Thanks for sharing what you do, but you have not been able to farm 5s faster with the same circumstances.

    LOL it seems that so far no one has been able to give me an answer to my question.

    Which was, has anyone been able to farm 5s faster than that without winning a mech bat? And to explain how to do it.

    So far people have only expressed how they start a server and what their priorities are, rather than answering my question.

    Yes i have disagreed with all of them, but thats because they are not giving me what im looking for. Is what im looking for confusing to people? I thought i did a good job in expressing what it was.

    Now to address specific parts of your post.

    Red - I was not asking for views on what people think is the best way to do it. I asked plain and simple, have you done it faster? and how?
    No one has given an answer to this.

    Blue - Just read though my posts and no where did i see that i told anyone they were wrong, but again this thread is not about what people think is best, so this is irrelevant.

    Green - OH what do you know i get to tell someone that they are wrong after all, because you are in fact wrong about everything you said lol.




    Anyways in all seriousness, Im just looking to see if anyone has done it faster and how they did it. And not what people think is the best way to do it, or advice.
