To expand on previous post, the cities are typically filled with buildings that give diamonds like wishing wells, fountains of youth, crow's nest, seed vault. himeji castle. You can also use Blue Galaxy to double collected diamonds, I've gotten 100 diamonds from wells/fountains several times.
Then there's doing GE. A few of the chests on the first 3 levels have small amounts of diamonds and there's a possibility of getting 100 diamonds on the final chest of level 3. Then level 4 has several chests with diamonds.
And GBG diamond league. I estimate I get around 100 diamonds per 300 fights.
On average 7800 per year, per world!fun fact: average diamond haul from doing 64 encounters per week is 150-300 diamonds.
It's not luck, it's percentages. Have 1 WW and you'll get diamonds every 100 days (collecting daily). Have 100 wells and you'll get diamonds every day on average. Easy to forget one reward in 100 days, not so much if you're getting them daily.Ive gotten lucky getting a hundred diamonds in ge...but none with wells yet. Thats why i sell in AD, i find them useless
Using diamonds for more wells is seldom a good buy. Each well will produce about 180 diamonds a year on average. So if you got one for 500 diamonds, that'd be ~3 years before it even paid for itself.I have two diamond farms under construction. One has 37 WW/FoYs and one Crow's Nest, with a couple of WWs in inventory that I need space to plant. The second is newer and only has 22 WW/FoYs.
Right now, both still have the general purpose buildings to support getting through GE and events to collect more WWs and FoYs; once they get to 50-60 each, I'll probably do away with most of the other stuff and just daily collect.
All in, I get enough that I can keep an inventory of around 10K diamonds to use for grabbing the event prizes that include more WWs/FoYs. Eventually, it should grow to the point that I can use diamonds for accelerating settlements and negotiations, but that may take a while.
Someday....ill get some rocks from the wells. IF i can holdoff selling em off in ADIt's not luck, it's percentages. Have 1 WW and you'll get diamonds every 100 days (collecting daily). Have 100 wells and you'll get diamonds every day on average. Easy to forget one reward in 100 days, not so much if you're getting them daily.
Diamonds are shared across all cities on your account.OK this confuses me. If you have multiple cities and thus one is say a diamond mine, how does that benefit your main city?
What @Graviton said. And what that means is that you earn the Diamonds in the Diamond mine city (or cities) and then spend them in your main city.OK this confuses me. If you have multiple cities and thus one is say a diamond mine, how does that benefit your main city?
