The Income Formula

Another reason not to level up too fast is to let your income and vp catch up with your level. The higher the level, the better weapons and companions, needs a better income to maintain proper upkeep. Riches is like roots of power in this game :p

Here goes ..

( Level x 2 + 10) x (upkeep of the highest weapon + upkeep of the highest companion) + ( number of extra mercenaries x (upkeep of the highest weapon + upkeep of the highest companion))

Ouch..too many math, right? To make it easier, here is the example :

Hero Name : Lady Verne ; Level : 71
Highest Weapon Unlocked : Earthquaker (30 m upkeep) ; Highest Companion Unlocked : Marksman ( 16 m upkeep ); Number of Exta Mercenaries : 9

So the income should be :
(71 x 2 + 10) x (30.000.000 + 16.000.000) + (9 x (30.000.000 + 16.000.000))
= 152 x 46.000.000 + 414.000.000
= 7.406.000.000

The income formula is valid to be always armed and still got a bit of income daily. Or armed at weekend for tourneys and wars and goes to income mode daily. If you want to stay armed all the time and still got a proper income, just double the grand total or add 50% from the grand total then ^^

Personally, I chose to be armed on weekends only, since i couldn't afford to be fully equipped all the time x_x ... but that's me, and just like in real life, the game is always about choices. So happy gaming, heroes ^^

List of Companions

This is my first article after i left The Lycans..if some are wondering why i keep on writing in their blog, the answer would be because i consider The Lycans as family, and i do love to write. It surely felt good knowing that such simple articles in a very simple blog could guide heroes in the game ^^

I've invited some great contributors to write in this blog, so thanks again to bondut and uilquorra for sharing their thoughts and knowledge with the viewers of this blog ^^
