Perhaps in colonial, can't put down something that big now and collecting that many progressive era goods is not trivial. Current plan is to: Take CF to level 5. CdM to level 4.
My question, is how in the world do you guys get CF prints/goods so early? I know raven mentioned "we as a guild help out", but that is a straight up donation. I am in EMA, I have built StM, LoA, HS and have full CdM prints and goods. CF? Not even close, got 3 prints. Most folks just dont build this thing, it is not popular. Even if I were to build it, it needs a TON of goods, expensive PE goods. Without the CF, the the whole heavy questing strategy falls apart Stuck.
On C world I got into ME about 5 months ago and I started immediately with the HQS - and its working wonders.Now that I'm trying out HQing a little in beta, I've come to realize that (for me anyway) it's only a good strategy at the start when you have nothing else going for you.
Gets you a neat little stockpile of goods and fp, as well as much needed blueprints. I think new world I will do quest looping until LMA or maybe CA then I'll stop because by ME my city will be filled with GBs and fp-giving event buildings - much like my city on V world. I couldn't do HQing there even if I wanted to, nearly everything in my city is a special 24h building.
So for detractors (looking at you Stephen) you can consider this a good strategy to start out with but I don't think it's a reliable way to sustain high level gameplay in the latter ages when having tons of fp-producing event buildings gives a better payout.
One thing I've noted is that as you camp in ages, you suddenly find yourself with more fps than you can use. If you don't have any gbs yet then this is a great opportunity to camp and look for cheap gb rewards. I have 6 pages of GBs on beta, been getting a lot out of it.
Yes I parked in PE for a while, raising all my attack GBs to 10 before I proceeded.Unless you park your city for a long time
You mean like the highest ranked person in all worlds that is doing HQing?What's the best rank anyone has to show for HQing?
That directly contradicts CR's posts on the first page of this thread that specify PME, CE and TE as unsuitable for HQS.The strategy works in all ages if you actually do it. Most don't.
I get almost 100 FP per day just collecting from my city. Plus dozens of current age and unrefined goods. And coins and supplies. Other than medals, I get way more of everything than I would if I were trying to do HQS. And I don't have to click endlessly to do it. Throw in the few (less than 15) recurring quests that I do loop as I collect and spend, and you couldn't get me to switch playing strategies.Super good day for HQS today. 58 alchemists. 15 UBQs. 2 collect gold. 1 spend 38 forge points.
Netted 8 medium forge packs! That is 40 FPs! I know it is a statistical aberration, but good to see it work like a charm. I have two swap partners, so pretty much dumped them all into their GBs and expect a return on my CF. If you don't mind the clicking (and I dont mind it on a tablet at all) its pretty fantastic stuff. Also, tons of HMA goods which makes negotiating the first 2 levels of GE rather trivial as long as you are buying the tavern boosts.
So, looping about a dozen recurring quests, and collecting from all my buildings, here are my totals:That directly contradicts CR's posts on the first page of this thread that specify PME, CE and TE as unsuitable for HQS.

The HQS does not advocate parking any age that is not named: HMA, CA, ME, or FE, any longer than required to have each recurring quest pay us 20 diamonds each one time.
Who? And is that boosted by diamonds? Like I don't mean just buying the diamond expansions but did he spend hundreds/thousands?You mean like the highest ranked person in all worlds that is doing HQing?
I you read and actually understand the strategy outlined in this thread instead of posting inane gibberish tying to contradict the strategy, you will find that in those eras you cannot do the "produce x" quest. The strategy still works in those eras.That directly contradicts CR's posts on the first page of this thread that specify PME, CE and TE as unsuitable for HQS.

LOL!!! "Produce x" quest is the strategy!!!!! Apparently, you haven't read and understood the strategy, which is understandable. After all, it is 36 pages of meandering "guide" interrupted constantly by inane "what-do-I-do-now?" posts.I you read and actually understand the strategy outlined in this thread instead of posting inane gibberish tying to contradict the strategy, you will find that in those eras you cannot do the "produce x" quest.

No, Mr. Longshanks, I think CR said UBQ is the strategyProduce x" quest is the strategy!!!!!
