Evony Age 2 Guide

The Corselet is an item offered for purchase on Evony which will increase the defenses of your troops by 20% with a duration of 24 hours. One common misunderstanding is that if you apply a Corselet while your troops are marching, they will not receive the item bonus. This is completely untrue. The Corselet effects are present while defending, as well as attacking. One effective way to use this item is to couple it with a War Horn. This will give you a 20% bonus to your attack and a 20% bonus to your defense. This is a stackable item. A Corselet has an Evony Price of 10 cents.

The Blower is an item offered only through purchase from Evony. This item will increase production of iron by 25% for 24 hours. The Blower is only useful if purchased on Day 1 when iron sells for a good amount. Make sure you focus on your Iron Mine as they can get you 15,000 iron per hour by the end of day 1. This item is much like the Blast Furnace, though instead of lasting 7 days, this item lasts 24 hours. This item has an Evony Price of 50 cents.

The Advanced Tax Policy is an item which increased tax income by 100%. Simply put, this item will double your gold per hour for a period of 7 days. It is a very useful item early on in the game when resources prices are low. This Item has an Evony price of 45 cents.

It takes some time to give up the control of a colony. You need time to pack up, to withdraw your troops and staffs, to prepare and hold the Handover Ceremony before you can hand over the city. You can now hand over the city instantly by using the Instant handover item. All your troops and staffs with be instantly withdrawn. Seems like a decent item and very cheap and only 20 cent.

It is harder to increase population in Evony with public grievance, but it is definitely possible. Both public grievance, tax rate and loyalty is related to how fast your population will grow. As you have probably noticed, the the lower your tax rate is the faster your population increase is. You can see this from the table posted below that your population increase per tick with 0% tax rate is 5%. This is the maximum possible population increase per tick that you can have. A tick happens every 6 minutes in Evony, then Evony will update loyalty, population and gold for each city you have. This happens at the same time for all cities on the server.

Evony sent out messages yesterday about a new item called the dream truce, an item you will get if you spend more than $30 from now until January 20. Yes, that’s right, you always have to spend money to get something from Evony. Several people complained in the forums about this dream truce item, thinking this would give people spending money on the game a massive advantage. From the email Evony sent out it was almost impossible to figure out exactly how this item worked. Mods have been posting in the forum however to clear things up. Read the rest of this entry »
