Playing efficiently

The other part is also very contradictory.. true the higher and faster u level, the stronger u will be in comparison to a low level person. BUT as a low or non vip, if u try to level asap, u'll suffer from a total lack of laurels. at some stage u WILL be forced to camp to farm laurels.. camping to farm laurels will be the efficient way. so u won't be able to level up as fast as vips who can afford to use gold for training n washes.

and the higher the level, the bigger the gap. even renning alone will set u back a couple of weeks difference.

Are you comparing end game?

And what do you mean by a lot more advantages?

The difference between vip0 and vip4: (67$)

Training speed:
2 more training spaces: lets say 50 trans/day
vip0 = 24x3+50x1.3=137
vip4 = 24x5+50x1.3=185 (1.35x faster)
This is the least of your worry unless you're Athenian. Zeus doesn't need tons of heroes.

Washing: Below lv 120-130, not very important. If you know how to wash, laurels does the job well. (luck)

Levies: Both can go up to 9-10g levies while maintaining gold amount, but vip4 might do less if they spend more gold on training.

Builders: Worthless as they not building anything most of the time at lv 100+.
All other features doesn't matter, except purple book, red horn (not needed for Zeus)

I should say that efficiency means camp at lv 87, 117, 127, etc, not stay at lv 110, nor jump to lv 120 asap.
Where does it say to level up asap?
VIP4 seems good, anything beyond that doesn't make much difference unless you waste 10-20$ per day, which is not worth.


The difference between vip0-4 and vip6+: (1000$-20000$USD) ...
You said yourself:

Quote:don't talk about efficiency with a high vip player, because they simply dont care about efficiency. why else would they spend THAT much? simply because they can, and they dont need to be a good player to beat others,

True
So let's not compare how Orochi and other good players would beat the game many months faster than others with unlimited $$, but compare to actual high VIPs that don't care about efficiency.

~3nd, 4th, 5th, 7th player (high VIP) to overkill Anubis with $$ finished Lost Temple "~slower" than VIP1 Trimgor.
#1 mrbuttslap was efficient until lv 130 (heroes not max 130 renn)
#2 Trimgor vip1
#6 Third ~vip4 but not sure

High VIPs being faster/stronger? Easy to do.
High VIP = 2x faster? not true for now. The cost $$ in this game to save time is exponential.
