hey guys, I have a question. when your lvl37, you can start having moat. But is it like an upgrade like the walls? why is there 3 slots of moat tools at the castle defence? are these slots for sharpened stakes and swamp snapper?

So lets say a player has swamp snapper as tools and have castle moat. so he has 100% defence bonus?

thanks guys

It is more like a bulding upgrade because you need one slot for the 48h, or the 24hrs it last to build, and yes what you are saying is correct if he have a swamp snapper and a ruby moat you get 100% of bonus

[1379868] Huey2 [None] :: Aug. 24, 2012, 5:43 a.m.
thanks a lot, but this 1 part i dont understand, the 48hrs and 24hrs thing.

[1379869] Andrea50 [None] :: Aug. 24, 2012, 5:49 a.m.
If you buy the castle moat(ruby), it takes 24 hours to build, but when you buy the Moat(resources) it takes 48 hours.

[1379883] xJadetsssx [None] :: Aug. 24, 2012, 6:32 a.m.
Ruby need 1 days,Resources need 2 days....

provided that you have a level 3 keep

It's just like a normal building - it uses a construction slot, and takes time.

The exact times do vary based on the level of your keep. However, by the time you reach level 37 you should DEFINITELY have a level 3 keep (unlocked at level 24), so the times presented (1 day ruby moat, 2 days normal moat) are the times it takes for a level 3 keep.

Once you are level 37 or 36, you can build one in battlements, where you upgrade your wall. Unlike walls, it takes lots of time and resources, so i suggest start saving up resources from level 35.

[1383399] xJadetsssx [None] :: Sept. 1, 2012, 3:33 a.m.
After level 37, you will be able to choose to upgrade two moats, a premium moat, which cost 12'500 rubies, and will grant you a bonus of 20%, and takes 24 hours to build (with a level 3 keep), and you can also build a resource moat
it will cost 21'875 stone and 13'500 of wood, and will take 48 hours to build, and will give you a 10% of bonus, building those will unlock the ability to put moat tools, you can get those after you unlock the level 3 defense workshop, (sharpened stakes +35% of moat bonus and the swamp snapper +80%) or buy the armorer tool for the moat (Fire moat +110%), you will have 1 tool slot for every section of your castle, and also for example, if you have a resource moat, you can upgrade it to the premium moat at any time you want after the moat is completed, building a moat will take one of your construction slots

Thanks Guys

Also do not forget that a moat cannot be damaged, or you cannot demolish a moat

[1383684] BobFighter834 (INT2) [None] :: Sept. 1, 2012, 2:43 p.m.
The building times Jade gave are for a level 3 keep, so if you capture an outpost and notice that a resource moat takes 3 days to build, it is not bug.

Hi!

If i first buy the moat and the upgrade to Castle moat, shouldnt i get 51XP extra that cant be acquired any other way?

Resource moat gives 51XP
Castle moat gives 51XP

Resource moat then Castle moat = 102XP

Doesnt anybody know the answer to this question????????????????

So i should first buy the resource moat and then upgrade????

If i directly buy the castle moat will the moat option still be present in the build menu?
