Academy
The Academy unlocks when your Town Center reaches Level 9. In this building, you can research upgrades that improve your city. Research is divided into three categories: Growth, Economy, and Battle.
“An institute for researching new technologies. Upgrade for access to more powerful tech.”
Overview
- Growth: boosts development (construction/research speed, training capacity, wards expansion, etc.).
- Economy: improves resource production and gathering speed.
- Battle: combat upgrades (troop stats, deployment capacity, etc.).
Note:
Resource requirements can vary depending on heroes, research, and buffs. Values shown here are raw/base values.
This building has no Truegold levels — it ends at Level 30.
