For F2P and low spenders. i would also add...Go for Attack refines first. I also do refines only when there is a refine event on and after i have a good round for the pyramid/Barbarian palace. I use half the gems for my monarch level and half for refines. After my monarch is at lv40....all gems will be used for refines. That is how i manage the gem part to the budget. between the pyramid/Barbarian palace events, hunt to get the refine stones and gold. For us...everything is a grind. so don't expect refining to be fast. Evony: only for the strong.
the 1st stat should always be refined as perfectly as possible, as it doesn't cost gems. The cost in refining stones & gold is managable, but gems are always a limiting factor. Thus, with further refinements it's often better to get away with any usable value
Thank you very much! I have been going with the Usable method, and that plan has worked well for me. I also have a very limited supply of gear to refine since I am holding out for Ach gear. Everything has been in a holding pattern while I accumulate proper generals and level up my Keep and Academy. Then I can upgrade the buildings to support T14 troops. Troops are expensive both in building them and in recovery. I stay slim and do not play defense, only offense (with rare exceptions) in Battlefield. No SVS yet. I am sitting on 260k stones and... 1.39M gems (not counting boxes from events). My archer general (probably Electra due to ascendability - doesn't really matter) will get a fresh set of Ach gear when the time comes. In the mean time... The Grind stays real.
I’m a little confused.. is it not possible to refine a little, use the gear and go back and refine periodically? Why would anyone, or in what instance would someone not touch the gear until it’s “perfectly” refined? I would imagine that it’s probably better than most of your other gear, otherwise it wouldn’t be important enough to refine immediately. Maybe this is a dumb question but I just started this game a little over 1 months ago. Anyway.. thanks for being very detailed and thoroughly explaining everything. It is greatly appreciated!
@about 13:38 you show refines where you have (2) Mounted HP and the are 22+%. do these combine to make 44+ or how does that work when you have more than 1 of the same type of refine? Thanks
How we know actual Attacking or Defence or HP number of Troops so we can calculate percentage from that number, Example you said in the Video for Higher Troops percentage refine is better. Let's say Attacking is 1000 for T14 troops then 25% would be 250. For this calculation I took 1000 as example where can we check the actual number in game
hi Aka. do you know anything about advanced refinement. could you show it in film. I tried but I think I'm doing it wrong. in 2 holds, 150K gemstone is gone. thank you if you take the time for that. gr. Edwin 😊😊😊
Strategy is still pretty much the same except that you probably won’t want to spend too much refining your sub generals. Also, the refines you will be aiming for will be different for your sub generals I covered sub refines in this video 👌 The Complete Guide to Sub Cities and PvP in Evony ua-cam.com/video/Ko0hKbqAII0/v-deo.html
I've perfect refining for my archers general's equipments. I mean ares/ Achaemenidae equipments ..they cost a fortune.. now I got 2 civic equipment scrolls.. 🙄🥺😇 totally confused.. 😆🤣
everything was fine before gorilla and godzilla came to this game, maybe next time they will do something more weirdo like collaboration with ultraman or power ranger. We never know 😂 i'm just not ready to leave my friends, logging into games doing nothing just to chat has become my routine after a few years play 🤣🤣
Not that I know of. The forge level should have no impact on the quality of refines. But Evony can be weird sometimes 😅. I don’t yet know of any tricks to get good refines. I’ve heard of a few things, but when I tried them out, the results were meh 😑
@@RedEvony so here is what I observed. A lvl33 forge will give gold refines on a blue gear consistently but a lvl 14 forge will barely allow the gold refine. I got to think the same logic is consistent. Lvl 35 forge may give more gold refines compared to lvl33. Just havent seen anyone talk about it
@@RedEvony I checked to see if you were going to make a video about it and comment on it. I used to look at Singh as a “voice of reason”, and have been watching you for quite some time now. Seems I’ll stick to watching you and Genghis from here on out.

I personally found Ares to be better for PvP (unless you can make civ gear). I use Ach on my sub gens, Ares for PvP (unless I have the civ gear).

Using gold for research at the moment. Short on Gems 💎 😢. Refining will have to wait. Thank you for the tips 😊
I haven't even started on refining my gear at all😂. Still work on cultivating my generals before i look into gears
Oh boy, you have a lot of “fun” ahead of you 😅😂

Hi 👋
Yeah, advanced refinement can be expensive 😅😅
I will do a video on it in the not too distant future 😇👍
Aka, what is the strategy to subcity generals?
Do you have a different video for subcity generals gear refining?
Strategy is still pretty much the same except that you probably won’t want to spend too much refining your sub generals.
Also, the refines you will be aiming for will be different for your sub generals
I covered sub refines in this video 👌

Use archemeade gear in subs unless you have millions to spend on civilization gear

Hello Aka, I want to know between purple and orange stats, which one is better?
Orange stats are higher than purple stats
Gold stats are the highest 😉👍
good video and worth watching thx for doing it
Thank you very much 😊🙏
What about refining of sub city general gear. Is it worth it?
Depends on what you are refining for.
Check out my Subs and PvP video. I covered it in there 😉👌
Very important tip specially for free to pay player
Yeah, it is. A lot of people don’t appreciate the difficulty of refining when F2P
@@RedEvony its ridiculously stupid
Hi Aka, i still confuse, can you please give me headsup for pvp assistant general need and use gear too? 🙏
Assistant do not need gear 😉👌
what do you refine on your sub generals ?
Check out my “Subs and PvP” video. I covered it all there 😉👌
You don't need refines on sub gear
Do you not recommend any refines on equipment less than Ares/Archae?
Yeah, I’d recommend you avoid refining any of those lesser gear except in specific situations (like for gathering generals)
Long time ago, My plan is make refining stone disappear from inventory 😂

Looks like we had the same plan for a while 😅

Seriously, does the forge level effect the quality of refines? More specifically, tge occurance of high quality refines

@@EvonyBuffy thanks... that should be enough. So its not needed to upgrade forge past level 33?
@@cally2011 you need to upgrade your forge for other buildings, but, purely on a refine perspective…not really
What's your in game name Brotha, And do you have a Discord server
It's most frustrating thing in the game
I certainly agree 😓
quite equal to skill-books for me🙄🙉
Why are your videos not focused?

Are you see big player troops loss buddy? 🙃
