    Welcome to my complete guide to Mithril.

    In this guide I plan to tell you:

    • What Mithril is
    • How to gain it
    • How to use it
    • Spells Info (inc pics)
    • The Castle
    • Mithril Sales

    What Mithril is:

    Mithril is an elite form of currency that is used to cast spells at the Alchemist to; increase power, effect your opponent, hide allies and even change your name colour in chat.

    How to gain it:

    Mithril is obtained from winning system wars. But usually Mithril is easily obtained from MWars, similar to PWars, MWars allow you to easily hit OSFs for plunder and, usually, since more plunder means more Mithril rewarded, is an easy method to obtain Mithril. So make the most of MWars before the devs find a way to destroy them. You can obtain Mithril before upgrading your castle and unlocking the Alchemist.

    How to use it:

    To unlock the Alchemist which allows you to cast spells, you have to upgrade your Castle to level 2. To upgrade your castle you have to have explored all of the Lowlands (25 lands) and spend 4,000,000,000 (4 billion) on upgrading it. Here are some pictures:

    Now you have upgraded your castle you need to go to the Alchemist to cast spells. On iDevice the Alchemist is located next to The Oracle in the Marketplace.

    And on PC it has its own button.

    To cast a spell you need to simply tap the 'Cast' button next to the spell.

    Once you have cast a spell it makes your banner look like this:

    Sometimes, when the devs are feeling nice, Mithril can be purchased with gold. Now when this happens, the duration and cost of spells can increase/decrease. Here are the spells that have been "edited" with the most recent Mithril Sale, which started on the 19th of April 2012.

    Spells of increased Power:

    Battle Fury:

    If these changes stick and become permanent, I will replace the images and information in the Spells Info section.

    The Castle

    [​IMG]

    Hiya! This is an add-on to the guide itself. This little section will tell you:

    • Why you should upgrade your Castle
    • What bonuses it gives besides the Alchemist

    Why you should upgrade your castle

    You should upgrade your castle because it gives:

    • A stat bonus
    • It unlocks the spell casting Alchemist

    I will explain the stats a bit more in the next section.

    What bonuses it gives besides the Alchemist

    Well as I said before the Castle gives a stat bonus when upgraded. Now the upgrade costs 4,000,000,000 but it gives 40,000 attack and defence and 30,000 spy attack and defence. However, if your are an OSF/OAF your attck/spy stats might not help you performing your tasks.

    Now these stats do not give any bonus to plunder but give static stats, that meaning they give stats but no soldiers or spies, a bit like a defensive tower.

    Here is a picture of my stats when I have 0 troops and spies:

    So, like towers, the Castle upgrade rocks in a fight.

    Enjoy!

    Q&As

    No it doesn't give you a 50% plunder bonus but makes the opponent lose 100% more per attack or steal, however this only has a 50% chance of happening.

  11. Re: Mithril - The Complete Guide [V1.0]

    With the spell that has a chance to make your enemy lose 50% more gold. Does that mean we get the 50% more gold in plunder?

    white-out

    No it doesn't give you a 50% plunder bonus but makes the opponent lose 100% more per attack or steal, however this only has a 50% chance of happening.
