Guide to Lv 100 Cities with New Basileus System - Pluton - 02-26-2012

Importance changes:
  • Nobility affect FOR more, Wanted List makes players attack Nobility.
  • Investing gives little FOR, but increase your hostility (making you a nice target)
  • Attacking high hostility players gives more FOR, more Prestige.

Political Center:
Importance: Best avoided

Update: Losing a battle in this city will cause your faction to lose FOR in all their other cities. You should look at these cities as the "very dangerous" places. Basileus can mark players in this city as SPY to avoid FOR loss.


Economic Center:
Importance: High Importance
"Investment in this area can double Faction Occupation Rate". This is one of the easier cities to defend and you get High Levies, High Prosperity.


Cultural Center:
Importance: Low Importance
This is the new safe heaven. (you cannot refine in this city when it doesn't belong to your faction).
Nobility that are not the strongest player must sit in this city to avoid huge FOR loss. when getting farmed.

"Gamers of different Factions can relocate to this Area". No matter which Faction is in control, you can move over to this city whenever you want.


Trade Center:

Importance: Low importance
Update decreased the investing impact on FOR. Difficult and very expensive to defend. Not worth as much as before. You are better off using Military Center to attack.
Attack players in these cities to drop their FOR easily and if they want to keep it, you make them invest and waste 180k Drachmas daily on several accounts, which in turn increase their Hostility and their FOR loss when defeated. Very good place to farm lots of (~weak) archenemies.
It's a vicious circle that will make you spend more defending this city and you won't have much opportunity to invest in other cities... (Ignore above If your faction can handle this)

"Gamers of this Area can invest in other Lv 100 Areas". This city allows you to attack every single city on the map through investing. Even in Winter this city can invest in cities of other factions, to gain little Faction Occupation.


Military Center:
Importance: Very important
Update increased FOR damage done by Nobility.
(Basileus in Military center winning over purple Basileus can gain up to 9-12%FOR)
If you are not the strongest players and get farmed easily, sit in Cultural Center.

"Attacking players from this area will double the Faction Occupation Rate". This means whenever you are located in this city, all your attacks will count as 1-12% faction occupation. Generally you want the strongest players of the faction in this city. They can easily occupy a city in a day or two depending on how many players are in this city.


Investing
Update decreased the investing impact on FOR.
(now reduced to 0.5% I think, also depends on current FOR)

Investing gives you Faction occupation in the city you are currently located in (with trade centers as exception). Every 10 Prosperity investment gives 1% faction occupation rate. A gamer can invest 3 times a day. the cost of 10 prosperity starts at 16,000 drachmas, and will go up whenever the prosperity moves up. However more Prosperity also gives more drachmas whenever you levy.

Investing also gives a gamer Prestige. the formula for this is:
Level of gamer x 2 x Prosperity = Amount of Prestige
lets say you are level 40, and you choose the option of 10 prosperity: 40 x 2 x 10 = 800 prestige.
