1. What is the Great Building Contribution?

The Great Building Contribution calculation determines how many points you need to invest to secure a particular reward level in Forge of Empires' Great Buildings. This helps players strategize their investments in other players' Great Buildings.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the simple formula:

Where:

• Total Points Needed — The total amount of points required for the next level of the Great Building
• Reward Level — The position you want to secure (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, or 5th place)

Explanation: The total points needed for the next level are divided by the reward level position you want to achieve. This gives you the minimum points you need to contribute to secure that position.

3. Importance of Contribution Calculation

Details: Calculating the exact contribution needed helps players optimize their forge point investments, ensuring they get the desired rewards without over-investing. This is crucial for efficient resource management in the game.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips:

• Enter the total points needed for the next level of the Great Building
• Select the reward level you want to achieve (1-5)
• The calculator will show you how many points you need to invest to secure that position
• Always check the current contributions before investing as other players may have already contributed

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What if multiple players invest the same amount?
A: The player who invested first gets the higher position. If contributions are equal, priority goes to the earlier investor.

Q4: Do all Great Buildings use the same formula?
A: Yes, the contribution calculation works the same for all Great Buildings in Forge of Empires.

Q5: What's the benefit of contributing to others' Great Buildings?
A: You get rewards (blueprints, medals, forge points) and help your guildmates while building social connections in the game.
