Buildings

Buildings play an important role in War of Legends as they aid players and their legends. The type of city a player has is usually determined by the quantity of buildings players have in their cities. For example, to speed up troop recruitment, more garrisons are required. And, to increase tax collection, players require a larger population and therefore, more villages.

Players with a high enough position may have several sub-cities designed specifically for a particular goal: troop-building sub-city, gold-generating sub-city, food-producing sub-city, etc.

Building example

Main article: Building example

When the "Building Progress" button is highlighted, details of buildings currently being built or upgraded appear on the right side of the screen. In the image shown, for example, an Ally base is upgrading from Level 16 to Level 17, with 2 hours, 12 minutes, and 7 seconds remaining until the upgrade is complete.

Building levels

With higher building levels, players unlock extra capabilities for a particular building, such as recruiting better troops (Garrison), searching or holding more legends (Legend sanctuary and Legend pavilion), or sending more resources (Stable). In normal cities, the level is capped at 20, although once a player reaches the position of Civic Guardian or Civic Custodian, they have the ability to make all their cities and skills updated to level 25/30 respectfully, although outposts can only be maxed up to 25 and still require Adv. Sketches. If the player has a famous cities, the level cap is 25 for Zhou and Barbarians, and 30 for Shang, however this only applies to the Famous City itself.

At specific building levels, the colour of the level changes:

Green:	0	–	10
Blue:	11	–	15
Purple:	16	–	20
Orange:	21	–	30
