Just Starting
When you start a new account on an Evony server you will have 7 days of beginner protection. You better use these days wisely, especially if you’re on a server that has already been running for a while. You can also turn the protection off earlier by building a level 5 town hall, but then you better know what you’re doing.
Anyways, the game is pretty easy to learn by following the quests. Following the quests is definitely the way to go, as in most of them you will get really good rewards. Before you decide what quests to do next, look at the rewards, for some of them the reward is larger than what it costs to fulfil the objective of the quest, like building up the first levels of the town hall, so definitely try to do these quickly.
On a new server prices for resources tend to be very high, and cause of that you should focus mainly on resource production the first couple of days. Don’t build lots of cottages and raise taxes, only build enough so that you can get all your jobs filled. You’ll probably get enough money from the quests you do, and if not you can just sell some resources to make money. Watch the prices in the marketplace, as long as you get more than 1 gold for each resource you sell, don’t bother trying to make money with taxes.
If you start on a server that has already been running for a while, chances are prices for resources will be really low, somewhere in the 0.2 – 0.03 range, with lumber being most valuable. Extra lumber you can sell, and if you need more of the other resources you can buy them.
When it comes to what type of troops and defences you should build before your protection runs out, it depends a lot on your neighbourhood and how old the server is. If it’s a new server I’d just focus on warriors and archers to raid your neighbours with together with a good number of traps and archer towers. If the server have been running for a while and you have several large neighbours, some archer towers and traps won’t really matter to them, so then I’d just focus more on troops. And on a server that’s been running for a while it’s even more important to never have a lot of resources lying around. If big players don’t see resources when they scout you, they probably won’t attack you.
This is the end of this starting guide; hopefully you found some of it useful. If you’ve got questions or comments, feel free to post it here.
Troops to Build
You start out building warriors and archers, that’s it. Many people say that warriors suck, and yeah it’s true they are the weakest of the troops, but they are also way cheaper and faster to build. In the beginning you’d like to get troops quickly, and you don’t have 10-15 barracks in each village either like you will later, so that’s why you should focus on the warriors.
It’s also true that archers can kill warriors easily, with no losses if there are enough archers, but that’s why you’re building your own archers at the same time. Don’t ever leave your warriors alone with open gates or in a valley somewhere; always keep them together with the archers you’re building at the same time. 1 archer for every 10 warriors you build is a good ratio starting out. The archers will also be used for taking out all warrior, pike or sword armies in valleys with no losses.
Also youl be able to make good use of the warriors at a later stage as they are used as `meat shields` which basically means they die not the archers which are more expensive and take longer to build
Later on you can build other troops, but first get 100,00 warriors and 10,000 archers.
Taxes Taxes Taxes
When you first start evony Taxes will be your main income. when you get experienced enough youl realise taxes are really a waste of time and you might as well set them to 0% as you get lots from farming Npc`s.
The best tax rate when you’re not online and playing the game is 20%. Putting tax rate at 20% the population will be stable at 30% of maximum, and they will each pay 20-30% tax. The stable population number is your loyalty times your max population, and loyalty will be stable at 100% minus your tax rate. This is why it’s so dangerous to put tax rate at 100% and leave your computer for a long time, cause then both your loyalty and population will go down to 0, you will have riots and loose lots of resources.
When you’re planning to stay online for a few hours, first set the tax rate to 0% so that your population goes up. You can use population increase or disaster relief to speed this up. When loyalty and population is at 100% you set your tax rate to 100%. This will earn you a massive income; all you have to do to keep your population from going down is to use disaster relief every 15-20 minutes. If you run out of food, just buy it at the market, food is cheap compared to the entire fold you make using the method. This trick will keep loyalty at 100 even with 100% tax rate. Before you log off make sure you change tax rate back to 20%.
Making a New City
Building a new city in Evony is actually quite easy. First you need to have a high enough title, to build your second village you need to be a Knight. You get to that title by following the promotion quests, and you need the items in your beginner package. You find your package under the package symbol top left on your screen.
Then you need to conquer a flat, look around on the map for the lowest level flat you can find. The higher level flat the more troops you will need, so it’s best if you find a level 1 or 2 to build your second city on. Make sure you scout it first to check how many soldiers there are guarding it. Usually 200-300 warriors and 50-100 archers should do the job on a low level flat. You can only conquer as many flats as the level of your town hall, so make sure you haven’t conquered too many forests, lakes and such already.
When your troops arrive and win the battle you’ll see a flag on the flat, meaning you’ve conquered it. Now you need to have 250 workers ready, these workers you actually get from the beginner package, and you also need to have a rally point level 2. If you have all this there should be a build city button when you click on the flat. Click the button and also click yes to taking the reinforcements home. When the workers reach the flat you’ll have a new city!
Making Lots of Gold
To do this I would recommend having a minimum of two villages and one of them should be as close to a level 5 NPC villages as possible. The level 5 NPC village will have 450,000 gold in it when full, it regenerates all that gold in one hour, so to get the max from it you should be within half an hour from it with transports.
To plunder it I would like to have at least 70,000 warriors, so that you minimize losses. Depending on your hero and technology you will lose about 14,000 warriors in each attack. You should also use 1 pikeman, swordsman, archer, cavalry and cataphract for layering, else losses will be higher.
The reason you choose a level 5 NPC is all the gold it has compared to the number of fortifications and troops. The higher level NPC villages have a lot more troops compared to the gold they hold, and are not really worth plundering using warriors.
As you might have understood, the lower the wood prices the more profitable this strategy is. It also depends on food prices, as there are about 3 million foods in the NPC village in addition to the gold. There are also other resources, but only like 120,000 of each so those don’t matter much. As long as wood prices are lower than about 0.7 this strategy is profitable.
To rebuild warriors fast enough you need a lot of barracks, 2-3 in each village. It depends on how high level cottages you have; since you need to be able to get population fast enough to train warriors all the time. It’s also good with high level barracks so you can keep production running during night. Please leave some comments if you like this strategy!
Everyone Needs A Hero
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.
Politics
The politics hero should be the first one you get when you start on a new server. Politics gives you faster building speed and higher resource production. You will have a politics hero as major of each of your villages; you only change to other heroes when you start science research or troop training.
Attack
This is the most important hero in my opinion, and you need a few heroes with high attack power. You send this hero with your troops on attacks as it gives you bonuses to the troop’s stats, and you also use this hero when you are starting the training of troops. You just go to your feasting hall, make this hero major, go to your barracks and start the troop training and then go back to feasting hall to switch back to the politics hero. When you’ve started the training with an attack hero as major, the troops will train much faster. The higher the attack, the faster the training is.
Intelligence
The least important hero I think, but still useful to have a few of them. You use these to accompany your troops on scouting missions. You also use them as major when starting on research projects, as it will lower the research time.
The other stats heroes have are loyalty, salary and level. Salary goes up with their level, but even high level heroes don’t earn that much. Loyalty goes down if you lose battles with your heroes, and the lower it is the higher the chance of losing them is, so make sure you increase this with medals if it drops too low.
Try to hire low level heroes with one of the attributes being really high, anything above 60 is good. The reason you want to hire a low level hero is that they level up much faster, and each time they level up you can increase their stats by one. Always increase their highest stat then.
Usually you want to have at least 3 heroes in each village, one attack, one politics and one intelligence. It’s also possible to send the heroes from village to village if you’d like. Your politics hero that is your major will level as you build things, but making him fight a few battles is a good way to speed up his levelling process. Feel free to leave questions or comments here.
Attack Barbs with No Casualties
Yes, it’s possible to attack barbarian NPC villages without any losses at all. You get a lot of experience for your hero when you’re doing this as well as lots of resources. I’ve done this with villages up to level 5 so far, but I will attack higher once I get enough troops to do so. Read on to figure out how.
What you need to do this successfully is ballistae; yes these wonderful siege weapons that are great at shooting down archer towers. You also need a lot of transporters if you want to get all the resources back home. How many you ballista’s you need depends on the level of the NPC village as well as your technology bonuses and hero attack bonus.
Here is a attack report from me attacking a level 5 NPC barbarian city. 600 ballista’s should be enough here as long as you have a hero with around 80 attack. I haven’t tested the minimum you need yet, but better safe than sorry.
I’d advise you to build a city real close to a level 5 or 6 NPC village so that you can raid it every hour you’re online. Doing this will make you a lot of resources as well as tons of experience for your hero. If you don’t have enough ballistae yet, keep building those level 9 barracks and train ballistae in them. I hope this tip was helpful, feel free to leave comments or questions.
Balista vs Nps
20 Ballistas vs Lvl1 NPC
50 Ballistas vs Lvl2 NPC
170 Ballistas vs Lvl3 NPC
250 Ballistas vs Lvl4 NPC
550 Ballistas vs Lvl5 NPC
Defending Against Experienced Players
When people try to take over your villages they often use lots of attacks with scouts to lower your loyalty quickly. Scouts are way faster than any other unit in the game, and once all your fortifications have been destroyed even one scout and a hero will succeed attacking you. When this happened to me today I tested out a strategy with building abates, and that worked out great.
The reason I chose to build abates is that they are quick to build, less than one minute with decent bonuses, and even one of them can kill lots of scouts. It’s only cavalry and cataphracts that can kill the abates, and if you keep building abates one at a time you basically stop them from scout spamming you. You force them to have to attack you with cavalry instead, and that buys you valuable time so that you can get reinforcements to your village.
At the same time as building these abates you raise loyalty and reduce grievance with disaster relief. If you happen to run out of food, which kind of sucks, you can use praying to raise loyalty instead if you have enough gold. If you run out of gold too you’re in trouble, but using my trick should make you last longer at least, hopefully long enough for reinforcements to arrive. Feel free to leave comments.
Conquering High Level Player Towns
Going to conquer a city in Evony I want it to be a city worth keeping. For me that is a city with high level buildings and several high level barracks. New players with low prestige usually don’t have villages like that, so when I try to conquer cities it is usually cities from high prestige active players. It can be very difficult to conquer a village from a high prestige active player, so I thought I’d explain how I do it.
You need to have high enough title to take two more villages to use this method. The first thing is to get a base close to the city you want to conquer, preferably less than 10 miles from it. What you do is to look for a low prestige hopefully inactive player with at least 2 villages that has one village close to the high level village you eventually want to have. If there are easier to get villages to choose from, choose the one with highest rally point and feasting hall.
You take this easy to get village using the normal method, first destroying fortifications and then scout spamming it. Scout spamming is attacking the village with 1 scout and 1 hero several times until the loyalty is below 15. When it’s below 15 keep attacking it now and then so that the public grievance remains high, it will drop to 5 in 1-2 hours. At 5 the gates will open and now you need to send your army to take out his troops. When his troops are gone you keep scout spamming it till loyally is 0 and then you get the village in your next attack.
Taking this first village might take you a long time if your other villages are far away, but if it’s an inactive player it doesn’t matter, he won’t be online to stop you from taking it anyways. The next village you’re going to take however is a high level one, from a high prestige player that might have an alliance watching over him, so here you need to be as fast as possible. That’s why you need this other village close to him as your base.
Now move your army to your newly conquered low level village, with enough food to feed them for a while. Hopefully it has a high level enough rally point for the troops you need to send out from it, if not you have to build it, preferably speed build as your new neighbour might notice what you’re doing if you spend too much time on this.. Also fill up the feasting hall with heroes.
Now it’s time to go after the high level village you wanted in the first place. You pretty much use the exact same method as you used to take the low level village; the difference now is that travel time is much shorter so you can do everything real fast. In addition to scout spamming you will now also use your whole army several times, so that you take away all his food and any troops he might be reinforced with.
If he happens to get online during your scout spamming, you have to use parts of your army to attack with instead of scouts, also scout him often too look for reinforcements. It’s very hard to conquer a village of a strong player who is online, but being real close to him with an army much larger than his, it is possible. Don’t give up, good luck!
Medals
Medals are used for different things mainly to do with a hero but most people want them to improve there rank so they can gain more cities heres where to get them and the best ways(if there is) to get them.
Rose and Lion medals
Many people (including myself) have a hard time finding these medals.
The best way to get medals is to attack them as frequent as possible max your feasting hall to get as many heros as poss
Firstly attack level 1-4 valleys; it doesn’t matter if it is a lake or flat, whichever valley will do.
Secondly send only warriors and archers nothing else, As these are the most effeciant
The number of the soldiers you must send depends on the level of the valley, but in general these should do obcourse if you have more troops send them but this is min:
level 1 valley : 50 warriors 20 archers
level 2 valley : 70 warriors 30 archers
level 3 valley : 90 warriors 40 archers
level 4 valley : 120 warriors 80 archers

Liked it
very good guide. 4 stars.
This is really good – thanks from Taemaster – server 20
join spartan5
this was very helpful,1 thing to sent resources to my second city i can only sent 5 at a tim how do i upgrade to send more
can you join my alliance:D. We can use an experienced player
This is to fergal To send more you have to upgrade rally point for how many different marches at a time and increase your number of workers to send more in a single trip.
wow. incredibly helpful. So much info and tips I never would have thought! This is awesome for helping me plan my strategy. Thanks especially for giving specific numbers where you could. I was amazed by 100 000 warriors, I think I have like 200. lol. Also, I’m curious.. how much resource is too much to leave lying about? I’m building defense, but I don’t want to attract any attackers, either!
i worked tnx for the help
To LookinAbout i would say a the amount depends on your army size as the bigger amount the more troops the attacker will lose but on average i wouldnt leave more than 500k of anything for a long period of time also prevents overflow and if you have enough food to build units built things like traps or archer towers as they are good.
thanks! hey, what do you mean by ‘overflow’? sorry for the dumb question but it seems I have a hell of a lot of food in danger of ‘overflowing’.
By overflow i mean you run out of space in warehouse so your per hour income will not add on to the total. either sell it or upgrade warehouse.
Thanks for the info about the level 5 barbarian towns. This has helped my game. Now my prestige is skyrocketting!
do you think 548 warriors 95 pikes 200 swordsmen 404 archers would lose to 917 swordsmen
No the first set would win.
The hero information was priceless!
Appoint my attack hero mayor train troops so the times shorter and then put the politics hero back as mayor!
You just cut my troop training time in half
Thanks buddy!
Awesome guide

how do you train troops
Build and then click on the barracks type number of a unit you want(as long as you can build it) and built. units you cant build if you hover mouse over there pic youl see what you need to build them.
Do youhave information on what valleys to go for to earn the different medals, I wish we could give excess medals to members in one’s alliance thanks for the forum here it is helpful
Ah yes thats a important thing i need to add ty ill add it now. i think your on about Rose and lion medals for promotion you can find these in lvl 1-4 flats ill be updating this site now with best ways to get them and ill research into how to get other medals by the end of tomo.
gamerr thanks how much time between attacks to keep getting medals, seems today i have traveled up to 40 miles to attack a valley in hopes of a loin or rose medal and after hitting 20 valleys came away empty in each one
Gamer, stupid question for you others have asked and I am not sure of the answer when you go into town hall and click on valley the lsit you have conqeured shows the valleys as idle are they producing for oyu? I am pretty sure they are as when I hvae dropped a valley before to make room for a higher lvl valley production drops on the resource,
yes (unless glitch) should always whenever youve capped them they will provide you with produce. it may be you have units idle on the valley or its idle because you have units idle inside it. nothing to worry about tho.
what tech lvl shoud u have to attack lvl 5 n up
dsnt really matter bout tec lvl but by tht time probs 5 maYBE 6
i have everything necessary to build the 2nd city but the build button is not active.. help, please
Common problem is youve still got the units you used to overtake the flat inside withdraw these units. quick way is go to where you can see heros stats and click the button next to there name.
very helpful guide … atleast to me. I bookmark it and need to come back few times.
One quick question
my rank is : Lieut
prestige : 4500
I attack near by desert lvl 1 (stone prod increase by 5%) and won the battle.
now my one hero is assigned there and i just transported 50 workers. But when i entered i didn’t see my workers. It shows only the hero.
What else i should do ?
I also didn’t see any increase in the stone production ?
Any advise highly appreciate … thx
you can withdraw units holding them takes up alot of foof the stone increase may take some time to increase or simply a bug and the units not showing may be they died or another bug some things in evony are glitchy people have lost loads of units randomly they do normally come back.(unless they died that is)
WOW!!! You’re my life saver!
Thank you so much for all of this! It has been immensely helpful.
You are just awesome for taking the time to help other people out like this!
Keep up the good work, you angel you!
Sincerely,
Nikki
i forgot my acounnt info and cant mak another acount how do i get the old info
hi can u tell tell me what i need to take a lvl 7 forrest, i keep losing
also what is a good amount of troops to have coming out of 7 day protection? i already have someone creeping on me i think LOL
Coming out of 7day prot id say you would need to have atleast researched archery and probably have 1k archers archer are good because they shoot units from a long range befor they take any damage. to take a lvl 7 the only way to tell is to scout as unit number can be random especially as other people can attack and kill the units.
Thank u so much, im telling all my friends about this website. Very usefull!
one more question tho sorry, but i keep scouting and it keeps telling me my informatics is to low for spy intel..my informatics is lvl 5. at what point will i be able to see the troop count in a city?
This WAS VERY USEFULL! finally after all thoughs years i found the right WEBSITE and GUY!! tyvm
Around 7 or 8 will quite a lot but most people swear by the same lvl townhall/lvl of flat as intel will get you it. you can use the troop size guides at the top they help quite a bit as you just send more than the max youl be fine.
Can u help me with this:
What does a hero level do? I can find a level 4 hero with over 60 attributes so why would i hire a level 26 with practically the same attributes?
thank you so much.
all lvl means is how much wage you want a low as possible one. and upgrade it as you can afford.
Why can’t I conquer a city successfully after i brought its loyalty down to zero? I am a knight (major) and i have all the necessary requirements for building a new city.
Is it not possible here to conquer a city?
at knight max is 2 cities
Don’t build Abatis, as they are only good for Cavalry and Scouts. You can always keep your gates open if you want to get your troops to kill the oncoming armies.
yea so you want to be scouted huh? and on new servers when your same height as other players yes but i think it sais when joining a old server thats been going on a while you keep gates closed spending all your resources befor you go off so you dont lose anything.
I know many people are making them how are they doing it those NPC graveyards?
making what?
I found it else where, some players are tking all the flats near them an dmaking them into NPC cities which they farm to feed large armies to attack outhers, it also keeps others from build close by if yu get a chance check out server 15 there are many what i call NPC graveyards ( large clusters of NPCs player made), it seems the game markers and mods don’t care and allow it to the point some areas are mostly black flags and in the center the player
Oh i thought npc citys where just inactive players and after a few days they go to flat again.
me personally i think this site is helpful to playing
hey so heros intell doesnt help with getting medals? and u could just use 50archers for lvl 1 100for lvl 2 200 for lvl 3 but i asume that people who cant get alot of archers use ur ways to either or lol
Yes that way is for people with low number of archers or lots of heros if you have more yea send them. and yea intel dosent help at all pure luck and what lvl valley you hit only.
Just wondering, is it a good idea to start another city early on in the game.(I am still under the 7 day protection).
yes the sooner you build it the stronger it will be.
well i turned the game off straight away.. until they fix the bugs i wont play it… (scout spamming, pathetic exploitation of game mechanics) and 1 worker in an army stopping a whole cavalry unit for 1 round… what did they do get off their horses and cheer the horseman that also got off his horse and clobbed the worker over the head? cavalry ride over infantry and keep going and hit the archers, and they dont ride single file! lol quite a joke, bad programming that needs patches to fix it fast
Thanks for this guide! Very helpful
NPCs are abandoned cities. NPCs farms are made by creating a cities on all surrounding flats then abandoning them. The level of the NPC depends on the level of the flat, I guess.
It is a fact that you have to have the same level or higher town hall as the valley you are scouting.
i cannot scout or attack a long distance from my main town about 197 miles how come
im guesing your troops cant hold enough food
i just lost 250 balista attacking a lev 4 npt this page is not right
If you have higher Horse back riding than archery they will get there befor they let off enough ammo
i am a new player and found your tips helpful. i am part of an alliance but them seem a little weak and disorganized do you have any suggestions, i have been playing only a few weeks and only have 2 cities and my prestige about 65500, not very high.
I cant say without knowing the server mate
how do i start over? how do i decide what server i am on?
Some servers you cant restart but if you can click your pic and bottom right restart (dont know why you cant on some) and to select server sign into homepage http://www.evony.com and then youl see list of servers choose which 1 you want and click play. you can have a charecter on all servers at the same time.
How and where to build abates?
Click walls and you click and build like you would troops.
What rank and resources do you need to build your second conquered flat city? Is there a way to transport resources from my main city to there?
you need knight, 250 workers 10k each resource a conquered flat. and yes you can transport to another 1 of your citys just click it and transport.
Thanks for the help, here is a question. Do i needs medals to build more cities, or can i get new cities from (non playing) players using your quidelines? I just have a waste of time trying for all those medals:)
you need the rank to get city`s and medals to get the rank yea and time to get the medals
Ok this sucks… thanks to you.. you say i need about 250 Balista to attack a lvl 4 NPC i had 332 with an attack hero of 90 and i died.. never looking here again! now i can build more stuff AGAIN!!!
no 250 with lvl 10 archery and you need to send transports
25 ballistas and 10 transporters for a level 2 NPC city.
15 ballistas and 10 transporters for a level 1 NPC city.
this site has been a great help…great work!
I\’ve a question. I\’ve 2 cities, one has lvl 8 barrack (lvl 8 TH) and other lvl 6 barrack (lvl 6 TH). both cities have different training time for some of the higher level troop types (eg – archer takes 2 min 24 sec in city with lvl 6 barrack as compared to 2 min 47 sec in city with lvl 9 barrack) I am puzzled why this is happening. the city with higher level of barrack and TH has longer training time…what could be wrong?
A higher attack mayor decreases your training time.
lvl 4 npc totaly wiped out 250 balista and all transports…what level attack did the hero you use have?
250 with lvl 10 archery and any relitivly good hero you should buy a hero if hes lower than 50-60 anyway
My alliance has a rather large enemy, Prestige is currently 823601. (3) combined Alliances sent multiple attacks at once, numbering 200-400K. None of the War reports came back with anything. Grapevine has it that this player has over 5Million troops in his city & that he is getting ’special’ help. It seems that Evony has a something that only allows for an attack to be 100K troops, & if you send more it divides them. Therefore, my question is what would be the best strategy to take this foe down?
Thank you for your time.
o man this is verry good guide now i am 72 in the best players rely ty
To Alto Rey
yea you can only send max of 100k troops and that only if you have lvl to rally point. to take him down its a cheap trick i know but only way, is to take all his valleys farm all his npc`s so he cant get any resources. and inorder to kill his troops you have to send specific waves taking into account what units youl hit first with what units and what units hit good agaisnt those units. you cant win without sacrificing nearly 3x what he has in his city. for example youl hit his cavalry first(if not archer towers) use pikeman to kill these. you may also want to send 1 or 2 terrible heros with like 1 scout incase he has an open slot as you dont want to lose your best hero. ty for asking question i hope this is helpfull comment again for anything you need.
p.s Congrats andres
sorry lvl 10 rally point my bad
I just took 975 ballista’s to a lvl5 NPC and lost the lot!!! What went wrong?! I even had a hero with attack of 80!
To TheGoldenGamer
So then, we have to send specific waves of attacks as you mentioned. Does each have to number 100K troops? So it sounds like we have to have someone with high level of Informatics, with a high Intelligence scout, with a huge number of scouts to gain knowledge of what kinds of units he has & numbers. And we will still have to sacrifice 3x what is in his city!? Not so much a cheap trick, but more a different strategy. Helpful comment indeed, you are giving me insight. Thank you for what you are doing here on this site.
yes that is because he has so many more units than 100k in the first place let alone the wall advantage and its range distance and defence
and fitch i duno mate you either arnt sending transports or you dont have 8,9 or 10 archery
Marvellours guide…quite impressive..5/5
