Looks like you do not need much mana after the Amuni chapter. Should i sell all the mana buildings or kee p some?
With tournament changes, we are going to have a lot less spells due to not winning dozens of each in the 3rd, 4th round after #9, and a lot less relics to craft spells... Spire haters are going to suffer even more...
Less spells yes for sure, but how many less I don´t know... I currently use far less than I get, so we´ll see which way it ends up going. All I use on a regular basis is 1 PoP on each of my 2 WS each day, makes 14 per week. I will easily get that even in the new tourney. So all the extras I get can still be used to make up for higher demands...
14 spells is not enough for most people to rely on the abbey.
14 Pop you need 14 provinces and a 10 chest fellowship for that.
but 14 is also about the limit that most will be able to do.
the first 8 are easy but after that the difficulty ramps up very quickly on the new beta format.
So keep your mana producting buildings.
Oh you still need mana, you just haven't found the areas that use it, but you will.
I keep all my culture buildings constantly polished to increase the coins for the Spire. Right now I struggle to break even with EE spells so in the future I will get less mana from the DA for sure. Whether or not it will still be enough - I don't know yet. At the moment my EE usage keeps my mana up to a certain saturation point where it decays as much as it accumulates. It sits at about 4m. If I'm using half the EEs then probably that saturation point may be half the amount, but that would still be OK.Less spells yes for sure, but how many less I don´t know...

Sorry I don´t get your calculation at all? I mean I get 14 PoP from a tourney easily. 6 of them from province 1-9 (on day 1 and 3) then another 8 provinces on day 1.
No need for anything else, but yes of course Neighbour help will occasionally produce them and so do the extra chests in the tourney team rewards (one PoP every other chest from nr. 3). But those are on Top of what I thought, or well can replace them if one wants to do even less in the tourney...
You are right, of course. Best to wait and see. I think it will still always be a good idea to work on the DA, though, as it will give Mage attack power on top of the mana benefit.so advising someone do destroy it all and live off your abbey might have been a sound advise on the current rules, but might not be good of an advise in the future. depending on how they handle the development of it before it goes live.
I missed the 3 extra round 3. so 17.
3 from province 1-9 on round 1
3 from province 1-9 round 3
5 from round 1 province 10-14
6 from 10 chests
------------
17 total.
Don;t forget that doing another "9" on round 1 might be undoable most players on current beta.
Provincie 16 for example the enemy is as difficult between the current 5th and 6th round. 143% of your SS. and your SS could be like 14000 at that stage
The new tournament changes are drastic and designed to make the star very easy, but also to limit your ability to do many provincies a lot.
This means you will have a much harder time to collect spells, which gives you less fuel for your abbey. so advising someone do destroy it all and live off your abbey might have been a sound advise on the current rules, but might not be good of an advise in the future. depending on how they handle the development of it before it goes live.
I hope it will stay away for a long time, the longer the better but we do know something is comming.
The only thing that can change that is if I start catering in tourneys. I assume I will place some mana buildings then... Or of course use more spells just for that (there should still be some EE and MM in the tourney for that).
The problem is that new buildings give far less mana than the old ones. At least the ones we got in the last 3 events do. And I'm not even talking about the mega sets, just the regular dailies like the mana hut, or the autumn pond or the burning pool etc... I think the better option is to upgrade them if one has enough RR spells. Or at the very least teleport them back into inventory in case there are no better buildings when one needs lots of mana again.I don´t think anyone should keep old mana buildings for too many chapters. By the time they need the mana buildings they will be horribly outdated, so I suggest to get rid of them now when you don´t need them and make sure to get newer ones later for when you actually need the mana.
