Resources & Shooter Progression Once your HQ path is under control, you need resources and hero progression to keep the account moving. Step 3: Keep Core Resource Buildings Running Your shelter has three important basic resource-production buildings: Building Produces Farmhouse Food Lumberyard Wood Wind Turbine Electricity These resources support construction, building upgrades, and troop training. However, early progression generally benefits more from: HQ prerequisites • Events • Gathering • Rewards than from trying to max every production building. Don't Let Resource Buildings Distract You Upgrade them when useful, but don't delay an important HQ prerequisite simply because another resource building can be upgraded. Your goal is efficient progression, not equal building levels. Step 4: Push Shooter Stages Don't ignore Shooter stages while developing your shelter. Shooter stages provide useful rewards, including XP crates for leveling your heroes. The different Shooter modes also contribute to long-term progression and feed into each other. When Construction Slows Down Long building timers don't mean your progression has to stop. Use that time to: Push Shooter stages Earn rewards Collect Hero XP Gather resources Participate in events Prepare for your next required upgrade Page 2 Rule Your builders may be busy, but your account shouldn't be idle.
