One game of great popularity today is Game of War: Fire Age. The game currently is free to play with the option to purchase packs containing items and coins in order to advance a players city to the highest level. This tutorial will address how to maximize the available quests in order to get items that can be combined together, resulting in a higher quality of those items, thus resulting in higher quality gear ( higher quality gear has higher percentage points than lower quality ).
Items can be obtained by opening chests, which costs a player coins or if purchased through an Alliance store, loyalty marks. Chests can also be obtained by completing 'events' such as the Kingdom, Alliance, Solo and Inferno events. The items within those chests however, can be obtained by a player completing Quests such as the Daily, Alliance and VIP Quests. Items can also be gathered off of resource tiles when farming, or obtained by battling a monster with your hero. What that means is that every quest containing an item is worth 600-1000 gold coins more ( the cost of purchasing a chest in the game ) than a quest without an item. Here is what to look for so you don't get stuck having to purchase a pack containing coins and chests with your hard earned money.
First, know that your VIP level as it increases will unlock the Autocomplete feature for Daily and Alliance quests allowing the time to complete a task to be 0 seconds if VIP is Active. Look for quests containing items. Any quest not containing an item should be left uncompleted unless it is a rare, epic or legendary task. This allows a player to only complete tasks with an item so your items in reserve buildup more quickly allowing them to be combined faster.
Next, you must have a Daily chance or an Alliance chance once you've completed all the quests with items. With two or more uncompleted tasks not having items, use a Daily chance (or Alliance chance) on the remaining quests ( the Daily chance can be obtained radomly through opening gifts or through the Alliance store ). This repopulates the quests lists with new quests, allowing you to have another round of completing quests with items. Very rarely will you have a new set of quests without at least one containing an item. Do not purchase a Daily chance or Alliance chance using coins since that defeats the purpose of trying to obtain items withiut using coins. As long as you have quests that haven't been completed and a Daily or Alliance chance available, you can continue to complete quests with items and have the list repopulated without completing the quests containing no items.
This strategy allows a player to easily obtain at least double the amount of items through quests giving your Forge the ability to level the quality of each item up every four items per level. With the maximum level being 6, it takes 1,024 level 1 items to make just 1 level 6 items. As a players reserve builds up, it is also an advantage to the player to prioritze the quests by completing quests that have only lvl 2 items or higher.
Getting items this way, allows your coins to be used for more important things, like peace shields which will protect your city, troops and items ( including any core items ) from being obtained by an attacking players army.
This is a fairly simple strategy which can be ultilized to beef up the amount of items a player has which can lead to better quality of crafted gear and a higher percentage of health, attack and defense points.
