[Kravenn] Training grounds : Why upgrade ?

Day 1,909, 11:41 Published in United Kingdom Greece by Kravenn

Hum, there is some time that I didn’t wrote an informative article. If some people don’t know me (mainly our young population). You probably read my uber tutorial : http://uktutorial.wordpress.com
Today, I decided to talk about something who isn’t inside.

I will talk about benefits of upgrade your training grounds.

Since more than a year, Admins added quality on every training grounds (a bit like with companies).
It means that for a amount of gold, you can upgrade your training grounds and you will gain more strength for the same cost.


Sorry, I had none with the free one, I took the one with the shooting range (values are the same, only picture is different)

About how to upgrade a Training grounds : I will not explain it here but I will redirect you to this page : http://uktutorial.wordpress.com/category/2-02-training-upgrade-a-training-grounds/
PS : search after “quality of training grounds” : it is on the second part of the page

BUT : That’s not all, from time to time, Admin launches a promo (length is 72 or 96 hours) where upgrade cost is 45% less.


The Famous promo (who comes around every 6 weeks)

Check the table below to know the cost

Normal cost


Cost during the promo.


Well, now you will say “Why I should upgrade my training grounds when I know that I won’t be able to have more than big tanks”.

Answer is quite simple : to gain more gold than before the upgrade. Because you gain a super soldier medal each time that you reach 250 str. And each medal gives you 5Golds

The following case will be explained only on the free training grounds :


Free one in quality 1

In Quality 1, you gain 5 str per day ( average is 6.8 str via 5 days bonus => you gain 9 strength in 5 days). It means that it will take you 50 days to win a supersoldier medal (36.77 days with the bonus).

Monthly income = between 3 and 4.08G per 30 days

Now, I wait the training grounds promo and I upgrade my Q1 to Q2 (around every 5-6 weeks)


Free one in quality 2

I will gain 10 str per day ( average is 11.8 str via 5 days bonus). Now, I will take between 21.19 and 25 days to gain 5G

Monthly income = between 6 and 7.08G per 30 days

Like every investment, you lose some golds at the beginning but after some time : you gain more than you invested.

Let’s check what happen after a bit more than 100 days

Without any upgrade, on day 111, you will gain your 3rd Super soldier medal (15 Golds).
With an upgrade to Quality 2 (and during the promo), on day 106 : you will have your 5th Super soldier medal (25 Golds).

It means that on a bit more than 3 months, you have your investment back.


Now, for those who dislike long talks :

- Save your golds
- Wait a training grounds promotion
- Upgrade those you use
- Gain more strength (and give more damage for your country on the battlefield)
- After 3 months, you have your investment back

Currently, and without being a master in erepublik economy : it is the best investment that you can make !!!

On the next article, I will talk about Training grounds contracts (Need to wait admin’s offer)

Stay tuned !
