It’s All About That Boost

It’s all about that boost, no treble. Those may be the wrong words but the concept stands. As Game of War becomes more immersed in Demigods, boosts are beginning to play a bigger and bigger part in the game. Not only are there normal boosts that you can apply but we now have a whole building dedicated to just boosts. Here we will cover boosts now being offered in Game of War, so that boosting becomes no treble for you.

The Normal Boosts

These are the boosts that we are all used to. You go to your boost screen to apply these. However, this list continues to get longer and longer. What you need to know is that if it is not for Demigods, it does not matter! Here are some of the current in-game boosts that we are dealing with.

• Demigod Attack- This boost is good for traps and leads.
• Demigod Defense- Works great when combined with Demigod Attack
• Demigod Rally Attack- Leads boost your rallies with this one.
• Demigod Health- Health is a great way for all players to strengthen their army.
• Demigod Wonder Holding Health- If you want wonder, you need this boost.
• Demigod Rally Health- Leads boost the strength of your troops!
• Demigod Wonder Holding Attack- Attack is currently a very important component in being able to kill more of your attacker’s march. Wonder Holders, boost up!

Other Boosts

Moving on from your basic boosts, there are other boosts that you need to consider in game. You can receive boosts from multiple sources that are very important to note when building or purchasing packs.

• Efficiencies and Reductions for Research and More
• Troop Upkeep Reductions- Those greedy troops do like to eat all of your food
• Buildings with Boosts, including Pantheon, Monster Lair, and Boost Building

Boost Building

Here is where we will spend most of our time. The boost building has become more and more relevant as levels increase. Currently, this building has a max level of three. Within this building, you will find many boosts that are important to gameplay. They are separated into three tabs and cover a broad range of things from economics to combat. Additionally, within each tab, the categories are broken even further down. Each of the boosts takes different components to unlock. However, the good news is that once these boosts are unlocked, they are lifetime boosts, meaning you will never lose them. In addition, they stack, which means the more you unlock, the higher your stats.

Athena’s Rewards

Let’s start by covering the different tabs and the basics of what you need to know about these areas. Athena’s rewards, similar to Athena’s research, are boosts that can be unlocked using Athena’s Rewards Boost Creation Component. This component is obtainable through, you guessed it, Athena’s Rewards. This means these are essentially free boosts. Collect your Athena’s rewards and unlock those boosts. Let’s take a look at what boosts you can unlock here.

When looking at some of these boosts, the numbers can feel small compared to the other tabs. However, remember these are free boosts so make sure you check here often to see what you are able to unlock as everything adds up.

Economics

Next, we will move on to our Economics tab. Here you can find a different variety of boosts from Blessings to Research. These boosts are helpful in making sure that you are able to continue to move forward and grow, and offering boosts that will help you do so. Let’s look at what we can find here.

The boosts you choose to open here will vary greatly depending on what you have of different components and what is your most needed. Later we will discuss prioritizing what you unlock.

Combat

Finally, we come to the combat tab. This is the tab that many players love due to all of the combat stats it provides for troops, traps, and mythics. What is great about this section is not only does it give great boosts but they are hidden. Other players have no way of knowing what boosts you have chosen here or how many you have. This is a great feature for traps looking for an extra edge. Let’s take a look at what this section provides.

Choosing your Combat Boosts will be unique to each player. The type of player you are will determine what boosts you want to unlock first. Let’s look into that now.

Choosing Your Boosts

As mentioned, choosing boosts will be unique to every type of player. As a trap player, I will choose much different boosts then a Wonder player would choose. What works for me does not necessarily work for you and what works for me as a trap does not necessarily work for you as a trap due to the fact that there are different setups and boosts that can be used. However, here we will look at some things to consider as each type of player when choosing these boosts.

Defense or Trap Players

Defense or trap players will want to focus on several stats. The priority will depend on how you are built. However, currently with traps taking a huge part of the hits, Teamrealtips would recommend focusing on Trap Stats first.

Here are the Stats that are important:

• Attack- Focusing all of your energy on defense will be ineffective. Attack is very necessary in being able to kill off the incoming march. Teamrealtips did tests showing a combination of Attack and Defense being the best for defending your Stronghold. For more info on these tests, check out Rise of the Demigods.
• Defense- This seems to be a no-brainer. Defense is very important for anyone trying to protect their troops.
• Health- Strengthen your troops
• Attack Debuff- Take some of the sting out of your attacker’s march

The order you go in will largely depend on how you build. Always remember that there is no such thing as a cookie-cutter trap. Tailor the boosts you use to your gameplay style and don’t waste creation materials.

Attack Players

Attack players have more that they need to focus on. However, when looking at being a lead, you need to be aware if you are more interested in leading rallies or being a solo artist. This will help you with where to focus stats first. However, having played the lead and trap, my recommendation for leads is always don’t forget that you need defense too. Here are some of the stats attack players will want to focus on.

• All of the Debuffs- Weaken your enemy by debuffing their stats.
• Attack- This will help you to be able to kill more. You have multiple options, including Rally Attack. However, with the difficulties getting through traps, when hitting trap attack may be a good place to start.
• Health- Make sure you strengthen your troops.
• Battlemark- Increase your strength with these boosts.

Wonder Players

Wonder players have their own set of stats that are crucial to game-play. Don’t be a one-hit wonder and get knocked out. Utilize your boosts to be sure that you can hold.

• Wonder Holding Health and Attack- These are two huge stats in being sure to be able to hold your wonder.
• Wonder Attack and Health- Overall, any stats that say wonder are going to be important.
• Debuffs- Debuff when attacking or being attacked.

Where to Start

Make sure you do not waste creation materials on boosts that you do not need. For example, if you have already completed Economics research, don’t spend your creation material to unlock the boosts offered.

In addition, know what you are able to obtain in materials. You can start with the biggest boost but if you won’t be able to open that boost because of how much you are able to spend, it may be better to start lower. Know what you need and whether or not you have the capability to wait when deciding where to start in your unlocks.

Master Garrison

Some Remodeling has happened in our cities. All of those Garrisons that previously cluttered our city are gone! All of the stats have been combined into the Master Garrison. However, here is the great news. The stats for these buildings were previously obsolete, with the Master Garrison Demigod Stats are added in so make sure you check it out!

This building continues to bring us more and more. Keep checking back here for updates and it will be No Treble!
