What should I be working on first?

Hello newbies and less-newbies!
This is your awesome

speaking!

First of all: a quick reminder on how to grow as strong as possible:

- Gol😛 keep your gold at all costs; spend it only to upgrade your free Training Ground during the sales! (All prices go -45 %!). You should only use your free Training Ground until you completely upgraded it and the cheapest one! Until then don’t pay to train! Once all upgrades complete get a training contract and you will gain 90 strength every day and get a super soldier medal (5 gold) every 2.8 days.

- Be smart and save your gold!
> Join a military unit. Most of them will give you supplies to get you started.
> Join a political party and get a job.
> When you have to move to do your 25 kills: go on the battlefield, under
the flags you will find the allies of the country. Fight from the nearest
ally country if it is cheaper than going straight to the battlefield!
>Do not waste money or gold on creating companies at first.
> There are many programs out there that will supply you with food and weapons. If you don’t know or not sure of what kind of help is available, ask your Ministry of Education and Welfare or ask some friends.




- Bazooka’s and energy bars: save them! Use only when wanting to win Battle Hero! (Highest damage of a battle round). Bazookas are not affected by strength; they do 10k in damage in 1 hit (for division 1 players). It would be even better to use them with bazooka boosters (20k damage) and if you add a 50% bonus booster it will give you 30k damage for the 1 hit. They are also good to use for levelling up your rank but keep your XP to a minimum which is 1.

- Experience: You get it every time you work, train or fight. Experience is bad! Avoid it as much as possible! Do your 25 kills, not more, or do no kills at all! Having a low level and high strength is so much fun!

Experience Points (EP, XP) represent the knowledge that a citizen reached in eRepublik. Experience Points will help you unlock features within eRepublik, such as fighting in wars or running for elections.
To level up you need a number of XP. Early game, it's easy to level up, but after level 20 it gets harder.

There are 3 ways to get experience:

1. Work (2xp / 10 health)
2. Train (2xp / 10 health)
3. Fight (1xp / 10 health or if you want, per hit)

- Fighting is the fastest to get experience points, as there is no daily limit. Working and training is limited to the number of appropriate building you have.

-> Many young players think that their priority is to level up quickly. However, this is not recommended by older players. That is because of the battle system in eRepublik.





Battles and how they link to leveling up!

A battle is now divided into the four division battles with each having its own battle:

Division 1: Levels 1 to 34
Division 2: Levels 35 to 49
Division 3: Levels 50 to 69
Division 4: Levels 69 and +

If a citizen of experience level 36 enters a campaign to fight, he will only fight in the Division II battles.


What does this mean for you?

If a young player levels up quickly, he will soon get level 35 without having enough strength to be competitive in division 2. That means, it will be harder for him to get Battle Hero medals, for which he’ll have to use a lot of bazookas, energy bars and money.
Also, he will waste a lot of food and there is always the risk of someone surpassing him in the last minute.

On the other hand, if a player doesn't hurry on leveling up, he could get level 35 already having more than 150 Battle Hero medals and enough strength to get even more in D2.


So your priority should be to build your strength as fast as possible and to level up your rank while trying to keep your experience points down to a minimum.
This is why it is recommended to fight using Q7 weapons to maximize your damage along with your ranking points by using less hits.

P.S. Experience points can also be translated to prestige points.
