Country Management

As new server has been launched, the presidents and the legion generals will be busy about fighting the NPC for new cities and farms. Assess your enemies force correctly and place the competent warriors to the right battle field is the keys of winning each Country battle and Farm Battle. This guide will introduce the followings:

1. Country Battle System
2. Farm Battle System
3. Assessment of Force against NPC

Country Battle System
From Each season's spring 21:00 to summer 21:00, cities occupied by NPC or enemies country can be declared for country battle. Country Battle will start at 20:00 autumn. The Legion General, Bridgadiers are eligible to declare country battle according to their progress in campaign. The requirement for declare different levels of cities are as follows:
i. Legion General and Bridgadiers who has passed HuLao is eligible to declare cities with LV cap = 60.
ii. Legion General and Bridgadiers who has passed Heishan is eligible to declare cities with LV cap = 80.
iii. Legion General and Bridgadiers who has passed Shou Chun is eligible to declare cities with LV cap = 100.
iv. Legion General and Bridgadiers who has passed BeiJiang is eligible to declare cities with LV cap = 120.
After each cities are succuessful declared, the order of country battle will be announced after 21:00 summer. Every Players can join the country battles when the time starts.
In the country battles, each country will face 30 enemies on the battle field. 30 warriors in the country battle will be chosen from your country according to the following orders.
a. Elite Legion have the first Priority amongst all
b. Warriors with Higher base level (If both in elite legion)
c. Warriors who enter the battle field first (If both in elite legion and with same base level)
If you are confident about yourself and believe you can contribute a lot in country battle. The first thing you have to do is to make sure you are in elite legion.
All the warriors are allowed to attend 1 attack country battle and infinite defence country battle. So choose carefully which one you are to attack.

2. Farm Battle
All farms in the world map can be declared by different legion. However, elite legion has the higher priority. They can overrule the declaration of non elite legion.
Declaration of Legion Farm battle is from 00:00 to 12:00 each day. However, no declaration of farm battle is allowed in winter when the farm has been occupied by other legion. Each player can only attend 1 legion farm battle, despite it is defend and offend. Occupation of Legion farm will increase the silver bonus of each country in levy and trade.

3. Assessment of Force Against NPC
The Enemy you will encounter in each country battle and farm battles will be as follows:

1. Level 60 cities: Xiliang Chaos Corps
2. Level 80 Cities and Forts next to Level 3 farms (i.e. Red Cliff, Huarong, Jiange, Jiateng, Maicheng and Mouth of Jiangyou): Wuhuan Calvary
3. Level 100 Cities and Forts to middle cities: Chen Calvary
4. Level 120 Cities: Wuhuan Cataphract

The indicator of competencies can use the player's campaign progress as a reference. This is my sharing of indicator.

Level 60 Cities: Hulao (Each Unit should be able to take 3 Xiliang Chaos Troops)
Level 80 Cities: Gongsun (Each Unit should be able to take 3 WuHuan Calvary)
Level 100 Cities: Carnage (Each Unit should be able to take 3 Chen Calvalry)
Level 120 Cities: BeiJiang (Each UNit should be able to take 1 WuHuan Cataphract)

There will always be 30 NPC in each battle. So e.g., if you want to win a level 60 cities. 10 ppl who has passed Hulao and 1 more ppl to stay will be able to win.

Walkthrough Until level 15

Having a good start is essential to the game. Here I will share to the Novice for the Walkthrough from Level 5 to Level 15. Your Base is start from level 5, not level 1.


1. Development of Base
Before you complete the Turbans. You can only upgrade your level until Lv 10. Time to be used for each building is very short. So upgrade each building to max at this stage is strongly recommended. This is the stage where keep staying in front of your PC. Remember, to stop at your base at level 14 first, because you won't lose any troops and your order when you lose the fight, since you still haven't unlock your barrack building. Unless, you really sure what you are doing already.  This is the time for you to explore the game, and understand the game mechanics.  Usually Veteran player don't stay their base at lvl 15 very long because of so many things that still need to be unlock. One main reason of veteran player to boost their base so quickly is The Prestige bonus from Invest or Fortify is base on your base level, the higher it is, the higher prestige bonus. For more information about Prestige click here



2. Enhancing of Equipment
Before your base level reach Lvl 16, the MP for enhancing will always stay at 100%. It is strongly recommended that you would upgrade all your equipment, especially the green equipment to lv 15 before you go beyond that. In Changse map, One of the NPC will give Ingot Blade while there is another NPC gives a green armor. Try to obtain those and enhance it to Lv 15 (Average Lv 5). Please be noted that the level of your shop, which determines the max equipment level of your equipment enhancement cannot be higher than your base. That is why i suggest to enhance to Lv 15.  If you lack of silver, you can get it from finishing the quest.


3. Recommended Heroes
Here is the hero that I will recommend to obtain in the first 2 maps:

1. Guan Hai
Skills: Clean Swipe (Attack All Tactic attacks)

2. Sun Xia
Skills: None
Sun Xia is a mechanic units and can give powerful common attack at the beginning stage. Will be your main Force at the beginning stage.


4. Development of Building
From Level 11, you will have new buildings coming up as follows:

Level 11: Granary - Determines the amount of food that you can store. Food is used to recruite soldiers. However, no soldier is needed to be recruited before lv 15. So try to fight as much campaign as possible in campaign at lv 14 since you don't have the problem of not enough food for recruiting soldiers. And you wont lose your order if you lose the fight.

Level 12: Academy - Academy is where your war technology develop. Remember to upgrade all Status modifier like Attack, Armor, Defense, n etc.  For early stage it is best to focus upgrade one formation until max first. The list of Important Formation  Single-Line Formation ( boost your common attack for Hero like sun xia n all hero common attack ), Arrow Formation ( boost your tactic attack for Hero like Xia Wan or Guan Hai Tactic attack ), Crescent Formation ( boost your critical chance which apply to all Common attack and Tactic Attack, very recommended! ), Tapper Formation ( boost your chance to evade both Common attack and Tactic attack, this is also very recommended! ), and 8-Triagram Formation ( boost your Strategy damage, this is apply to Hero like Zhang Liang, This Formation usually only being use in mid to late game, so forget this one in the early stage )

Level 13: Market - You can buy and sell your food in here. The food price cycle is every 4 hours, and it is recommend to sell the food at the peak selling price. Always sell your food once you upgrade your market, because every time you upgrade your market, Your trade limit reset!

Level 15: Barracks - Recruit your soldiers

Comprehensive Book Guide! with Daily Quest explaination

Here is the real deal..! The most wanted item in Chaos of three kingdoms! For less than VIP 4, your max aim is only Blue book from daily quest, and Battle campaign reward from Jiangxia (Manuevering Lvl63 Blue Book) also from Guandu (Three Kingdom lvl94 Purple Book).

Refresh gold cost according to your Hardest quest completed in a week

One star 5 Gold
Two star 10 gold
Three star 15 gold
Four star  20 gold
Five star 30 gold
Six Star 50 gold
Seven Star 100 gold
Eight Star 150 gold
Nine Star 250 gold
Ten Star 500 gold

First thing that you need to pay attention is Hardest quest completed in a week. This is what determine what Star that might occur after refresh or after you finish the quest. Daily quest span time is a week before it refresh your hardest quest completed as what I stated before. It start from 00.00.00 GMT+8 at Monday until 23.59.59 GMT+8 Sunday before It goes refresh become zero again.

Everyday, We get 6 times daily quest to be done. After six times, you need to wait for another day. The cycle is every 24 hours, start from 5.00.00 AM until 4.59.59 AM. You quest will ONLY be change if you have reach Hardest quest completed weekly reset or You refresh it with gold. So, even changes day, your daily quest will still be same, n keeping the record of how far you have finished it.

Because of different time reset between daily quest time and the Hardest quest complete in a week, We can practically get 8 days of trying, by using the 5 hours gap from 00.00.00 GMT +8 at Monday morning. All you have to do is, stop all your daily quest activity at Sunday, save it until Midnight Monday when the Hardest quest completed in a week reset, then do all six of them before 5am Monday.

If you want a purple Book from daily quest, it is suggest that you get at least VIP 4, because it will give you possible option to finish the quest instantly with gold when it already seems impossible in nomal way, and Refresh daily quest option when it doesnt give you the star that you want, since you have only 6 chances a day!

With normal odds, a Purple book cost 5k Gold, and a Orange Book cost 50k Gold. Sorry, I have no clue with Gold book, But trust me, it cost MASSIVE amount of gold, dont even think of gold book unless you have at least 800k Gold to spend! Why the differences can be so massive? Its all because for purple you need 5 piece but for orange you will need 10 piece n what make it impossible is the gold need 20 piece!

So Now your most anticipated info, Trick to save your gold cost! First you gonna use all the 8 days, that I have explained earlier, and raise your hardest completed quest all way to 5 star by keep finishing THE HIGHEST STAR QUEST. By some luck, it will only take you 3 days to 5 days. ( If you still can't get five star, forget this week, luck is not with you this week, lmao)  AFter you reach 5 star, start refresh your daily quest until get six star, then you will get your first purple book piece.  If your aim is purple book, you have 2 ways. First, after you get 6 star, you do it normal way, do not need to refresh anymore, hope you will get another 6 star quest normally, and after the week end. You go start all over again until you get the whole pieces. The first way is to save your refresh daily quest gold cost, but it will take very long just to finished your purple book, and not even counting all the order that you spend. This is only for patient type people who want to get purple book with as little gold as you can.

The second Way is, After you get six star, you keep refreshing with gold, and aiming to raise your Hardest completed quest until 8 star, but if in the process you get six star, just take it, another easy purple book piece, why waste it.  Remember, Hardest completed quest usually raise one star after another, so you must raise to seven star first before you get eight star. About the seven star, it is up to you, whether you want to complete the set too or not.  Why Eight star???  Because once you get eight star as your hardest completed quest, it will be very easy to get six star quest, and you will finished make purple book in no time, even the refresh cost raise but trust me, it's worth it.

For getting Red book, you have only one way to save your gold cost, keep refresh after you get eight star hardest quest completed, and only aim to complete eight star! If you get nine star pop out eventually, skip it! Dont even think about it! unless you are aiming GOLD BOOK!

That's all I Know up to now base on my experience, Credits goes to XiauLong S3 or XiauMai S9 ( same person ), and all MVP book player at S9. Good Luck..! You will need it a lot when trying to find Books! N thanks to Onimad too for the correction. Lolll..

Auto Clicker!!

Here is the "secret" you all have been waiting for..!!  Yes, I will share it now, so you all can play this game n have a 24 hours mine, farm, building upgrade, you name it!! But...  Still can have a life, working n good sleep in same time!!

Mouse recorder PRO

I believe all of you already understand how to download n install a program.  If you don't understand that, please go ask Google as I will not explain that here. After you have run the program, first thing to do is to map the button, because the basic Idea is to record all the mouse activity that you do, and then the program repeat it for you at specific time or date that you want. Check the below picture to learn where to access the Button mapping option.

Set the Record\Stop Key, and the Play\Stop Key with the Letter that easiest to be remembered for yourself. After you set the button, then it is the recording time!!  First, You go open you Chaos of three Kingdom account first and stay at the Chaos of three Kingdom window.  You press the button that you have set before for Recording, Then you are on record now. Remember, don't stay idle to long, every second is count!!  And never do it too fast too, cause sometimes the web respond not so fast, n you don't want your click to miss it just because of late CO3K respond.  After you finish, make an example, don't forget to stop the record, by pressing the same record button, and SAVE your example project.

 Now, you are having a sample macro now, n will understand how to make another.  Let me guess your another question, " How to set it run at specific time and date? "  This one is very easy, Check my below picture to understand which menu to access.

After you click it, you will go to this page..

Now, press Add and you will be direct to this window.

Browse the project that you have save, so it will know "what" to repeat, set the date n time too to make sure it will repeat at the time that you want.  N how often you do want it to occur since the first time it run, you can set it at the "Every" Tab.  Make sure you press "OK" when you finish. If you succeed, there will be a small icon button near your clock, after you press OK at the task calender.

I have been very thoroughly, Hope this post will help you enjoy this game without over stress. (^_^)
