1. Introduction

Hello

Since we are not able to view upgrades until your faction leader has opened a tree I thought it could be useful to have a small list compiling all branches and all specials they have to offer!



This guide was last updated on 19/01/2018 and is up to date to that point!

2. Core upgrades

[image: i.gyazo.com]

• Member capacity

Increase your member capacity up to 100. Your faction needs to be a certain age for the higher upgrades. You also need a capacity of at least 15 members to unlock access to chaining & territories. (5 per upgrade)

• Branches

Allows you to choose up to 6 different trees, which are listed with more information below.

The first branch you unlock will be the cheapest, after that cost will increase exponentially (1x -> 2x -> 4x -> 8x -> 16x -> 32x) So be wary of what upgrades you choose first and in what order you chose them!

• Armoury

The armoury works almost identical to the old system, you just have to unlock the armoury piece by piece, with laboratory being the final one.

• Territories

Have the ability to hold up to 30 territories. Before being able to increase the amount of territories you can hold you must have held the previous amount for three days. (1 per upgrade)

You can find a detailed spreadsheet with all specials who have challenges, and their respect costs, main branches that don't have challenges are not included in this!

Special thanks to Franky and FIN for this.

• Tornstats

Tornstats also has a new function you can find here:

https://www.tornstats.com/faction_sim.php

This allows you to calculate exactly how much respect you will need, and when you click on a special it will also show a list of all specials of the type, their challenges and respect cost.

typical harlet

Such a karma farmer

Don't you mean harlot?


Noun: a prostitute or promiscuous woman.

yeh hes a slag

On topic, guide's looking good. R+

R+

are you planing to include the tasks we need to do to unlock the diffrent upgrades aswell?

also, maybe mention something about the respect cost. still trying to figure out if the doubling of the cost for each branch means the cost to unlock the branch itself or if it's for all upgrades within that branch

This is a great guide, thanks Harley.



See, it is possible to make an informative guide that doesn't have the word count of a Dickens novel. Now we just have to hope Harley isn't embroiled in some stocks disaster.

actually Harley got money removed during WSSBGate :)

Please don't go rage quit and delete this guide within the next few days... cheers

I'll definitely look to expand the guide with challenges and so on, but I don't want to make the guide to cluttered, so I'll have a think about making perhaps a few tables or something else to make it an easy read, which I personally don't have time for right now.

Much needed basic guide though, for every confused player out there..

R+ Great guide

Really? Guess we better get the pitch forks out, #FadHerly

Seriously? 25% interest wtf?

Sure you didn't missread that or something? 25% would be far to overpowered.

Seems more likely to me it's 5% increase of the curent 3% we have per upgrade, so that at max it'll be 3,75%.



Edit:

Or maybe I missread your post lol..

so, how much respect does it cost to get all the upgrades?

It's definitely 25%

[image: i.gyazo.com]

It's not just a flat increase though, I'm sure. That'd indeed be overpowered, as you said.

It's probably just 0.005 (base interest) X 1.25?



I'll change the wording though, it might be confusing if I say "up to" :)

I see a karma farma hard at work R+

also this is good to know

Considering the upgrade to get your 30th territory costs 3,919,322, a crapton
