Spending / top-ups

If you plan to spend but don't know what to buy → invest in hero-exclusive gear. This article is for players who want to spend with a plan, so every purchase delivers the most value. Spending is a personal choice and is not required to enjoy the game or contribute to your alliance. ■ If you spend regularly Hero-exclusive gear is a long-lasting investment. It belongs to your main hero and keeps paying off as you grow. Prioritize exclusive gear for Squad 1 heroes (blue-faction heroes after the 50M mark). ■ If you have never spent Never spent before → try the lucky wheel (first-time accounts often have better odds). This is community experience, not official information from the publisher. Treat it as something to try, not a guarantee. ■ General spending rules • Set a monthly budget and stick to it. • Buy toward a specific goal (for example, exclusive gear for one main hero) instead of on impulse. • Compare with the development path in the HQ and Tech articles: does the purchase help you reach an important milestone sooner? • Never buy accounts, resources or items through unofficial channels. This breaks the game's terms and can get your account banned. ■ Free-to-play players You can still grow well by using alliance help, following the right research order and not wasting resources. Most of the advice on this site applies to free-to-play players.
