Delicate gem
The delicate gem is an item you use in Evony Age 2 to increase the star level of various items. Gems come in two types in Evony Age 2, delicate gems and flawless gems. The delicate gem is the worst of the two types, meaning the success chance of upgrading an item’s star level using a delicate gem is lower than if you use a flawless gem. You upgrade an items star level in the workshop. The advantage with the delicate gem is that it is very cheap at only 1 Evony cent per gem. The flawless gem is twice as expensive at 2 cent per gem.
The Wealth of Nations
The Wealth of Nations is an item in Evony which when applied, will boost a hero’s politics level by 25% for a duration of 7 days. Ideally, you would use this item very early on in the game on a politics hero (over 65 politics) to boost construction time. Establish your town as quickly as possible Later in the game, your resources are where they should be and there is generally no shortage of them. This item can be obtained through the Wheel of Fortune.
Gems and upgrading items in the forge
Using Gems is a new feature of Evony Age II and you use these gems to improve the attributes the gear and items give to your heroes. The gear itself you make in your workshop, while you use the forge to place gems on the gear you have already made, this is called Advanced Blacksmithing. Then you use the feasting hall to equip heroes with gear. Gems are not the same as stratagems or gemstones. Gems in Evony Age II come in 3 types, Rubies, Sapphires and Topazes and each of these come from level 1 to level 10 I believe, even though I’ve only seen level 1 to level 9 so far.
You can buy these gems in the Evony store, and you can also get them from attacks. You can also melt two gems together to make a higher level gem using Advanced Gems Smelting. If you want to buy the gems from the store you buy them in chests. There are 3 types of chests, the Wooden Chest, the Bronze Chest and the Royal Chest. Each chest offers you 1 or 2 gems of level 1-3 for a Wooden Chest, 4-6 for a Bronze Chest and 7-9 for a Royal Chest. Read the rest of this entry »

Each hero has 16 available slots he can use to place gear in, that is mount, shield, legs, weaponry, feet, 2 rings, 2 charms, belts, gauntlets, chest, back, shoulders, head and neck. As you can see the heroes of Evony Age 2 can get really powerful if you give them good gear. What type of gear your hero can be equipped with depends on his level. The lowest level possible that can use gear is a level 10 hero, he can use level 1 gear. You can see what type of heroes can wear what gear in this table.

With high level equipment your hero could get an increase of several hundred points in the attribute of your choice!
How do I appoint a Mayor?
Appointing a mayor in Evony is pretty basic stuff, but there are still quite a few new players joining the game. Evony is one of the largest MMO strategy browser games out there after all. Anyways, to appoint a mayor you first have to build an Inn and then a Feasting Hall. You need to recruit at least one hero from your Inn, since you need a hero to have a mayor. For each level of your Feating Hall you can recruit one extra hero. All a higher Inn does is giving you more heroes to chose from, and also higher level heroes to chose from.

Holy water
The holy water item in Evony is very useful, and it’s also very cheap at only 20 cents. This is the item you use to make the best heroes you can in the Evony browser game. Using a holy water you can reset 10 of the hero’s ability points, this is good since you can then reassign any points the hero has spent in other attributes than their main one. Heroes should only focus on either politics, attack or intelligence, not a mix of then. Read the rest of this entry »
Guide to Heroes
Heroes are really important in Evony, they give you better production and faster building time and troop training as well as attack bonuses. In this guide I’ll take a look at hero management and what type of heroes you should look for.
There are three types of heroes, the politics hero, the attack hero and the intelligence hero. Don’t mix them, focus on one attribute for each hero and change back and forth between them as needed. Even a high level hero will only be decent at best if you try to make him master of everything. Read the rest of this entry »
