2023 Weekly Challenge Foolproof Strategy
•
by Io Stefan Voievod
Hello!
In this article I will share my personal strategy on achieving 40.000 prestige points every ‘normal’ week. This strategy is based on historical data and contains many variables and estimates, as such please understand the following
Disclaimer: Not investment advice. Past performance does not guarantee future results! I did not account for energy received from level ups.
TL; DR - On Tuesday morning aim for anything between 21-24k prestige points and you should be able to finish the Weekly Challenge. The minimum target is 20.000 for full energy recovery.
My prerequisites are:
- 9060 Energy Pool
- 577 Energy Bars
- 1 Prestige Points Booster
- Epic battle 🙏
🏼
A normal 40.000 Weekly Challenge has the rewards listed in the table below, but I’m only interested in the energy recovery, which you get up until 20.000 prestige points, and the energy bars.
Tuesday morning at day change I have 9060 energy available, which means I’m starting the new week with 2,718 prestige points (9060/10*3). Investing 577 energy bars and 1 prestige points booster, as shown below, will get me to 20.000 prestige points and max. energy recovery.
The break-even point is at 34.000 prestige points i.e., if I invest 577 energy bars, I’ll receive 582.
With max. recovery I can start planning the week ahead. In the following table you’ll see that I have 860 recovery per hour, this is calculated using this formula: ((12 base recovery + 20 Power Pack + 50 Weekly Challenge + 4 from Q1 and Q2 houses) * 10) or simply put 86 energy every 6 minutes so 860 in an hour. Farming PP or prestige points earned between day change and full recovery can be used to farm medals (which is what I usually do).
We have now reached a crossroads with many possible scenarios, but I’ll discuss just some of them.
Scenario I – I fight until 20.000 prestige points
According to the schedule I could cruise and farm medals until 36.000, which means I could earn 622 energy bars from the Weekly Challenge, recouping my initial investment, and adding 45 energy bars to my inventory. Yay!
Scenario II – I fight until 20.000 prestige points, then log in twice a day
According to this plan, I can fight twice a day – at day change and after 10h 30 minutes – and still break-even on my investment. This is the lazy man’s schedule.
Scenario III – I fight until 23.750 prestige points
Life doesn’t care about my schedule, and I would like to spend less time playing this game, therefore I fight until almost 24k prestige points which will give me more leeway during the weekend. The trade-off is that I recoup my initial investment, but I don’t win any extra energy bars.
I wrote this so I won't have to redo the math every other week because of my short memory.

I remember there was a weekly challenge calculator in a web. It calculated the level ups and the energy for working.
I don't know where it is now
I think they banned the guy https://www.erepublik.com/en/citizen/profile/6365664
Not sure of the exact reason though.
For a D123 player with IK (and other packs) it can be easily calculated, but it gets trickier once you factor in Work as Manager and level ups.
he allowed his script to do too much of the work
IGD got banned as well, but he appealed
one of Erep's saddest bans
Oh, I saved it https://www.dropbox.com/s/hopy88lyqqwsju2/eRepublik%20Weekly%20Challenge%20Calculator.html?dl=1

A snapshot of it, even if Zordacz deleted it.
PS. Remember the relatively newly introduced daily challenges are not taken into account, some 3500 PPs weekly.
It must be nice to receive 'free' energy from level ups 😭
Anyway, I did some napkin math, and taking into account some level ups per week and ~3000 PP from the Daily Challenge, you can aim for 22-23k PP on Tuesday morning and cruise until next week.
I guess that's what the majority does anyway
With MP, assuming regular low division epics, you can lower that initial threshold to even some 15k PPs.
And PP, and BP (forgot about those). And as many house types active as possible.
There are at least two other scenarios that would probably need their own articles:
#4 I fight until 20k prestige points then throughout the week I fight in other epics using food fights (ff) only;
#5 I fight until 20k prestige points and then help my country as much as possible. This needs consistent energy bar investments, but I get more military rank points;
#4 I could have days with ~4000 prestige points without spending energy bars, just fighting with ff in epics. The trade-off is spending more time in eRepublik and following the Telegram/Discord bots to get notified of any epics.
#5 Proably the best strategy for a player without 20 legends and for his country. It can get tiresome really fast if you're the only one fighting

How tf do you have 9060 Energy Pool? 🙂
I am running with 4760 with q1+q2+q3 houses activated - completing weekly challenge even after reaching 20-22k PP after DC is a problem, often I need a second epic war or more EBs to burn by the end.
Because I'm a clown 🤡
4000 Blitzkrieg
1200 Maverick
400 Power Pack
300 Assault Pack
200 Power Spin
100 Q1 House
160 Q2 House
2700 is my normal energy pool (1000 base and all energy centers)
I'm not always buying every pack from above, just before or during events.
Cum faci să nu pierzi energia aia? Eu unul nu aș cumpăra PP fără BP, dacă ar trebui ori să mă trezesc la 5-6 ore ca să descarc ori să pierd 3-4 ore de energie.
pe ce data vine roata?
Din cate am observat la finalul fiecarei luni, astfel ma astept ca urmatoarea sa fie in 30-31 martie.
Ai uitat de 5X Damage accelerator and the other stuff la "prerequisite".
Fără astea, PP booster-ul e puiuț...
Da, corect! x5, 100% damage, 100% sau 200% deploy size sunt obligatorii pentru toti; mai putem adauga military rank booster pentru cei fara L XX
De unde ai 9000 energy pool?
4000 Blitzkrieg
1200 Maverick
400 Power Pack
300 Assault Pack
200 Power Spin
100 Q1 House
160 Q2 House
2700 energia de baza
nu cumpar pachetele de mai sus tot timpul, dar cand le cumpar as vrea sa termin si weekly challenge 😛
The more realistic scenario for the average playa' would be no MP/packs at all, about 3500 to 5000 energy, and 0 to 20% of total regenerated HP over the week being deployed in other epics, PLUS hitting the whole initial big deploy (550 - 850 EBs) in home country epic with boosters for the TP, otherwise, the loss is too great (in weapons) even for L20 and 300k+ str.
Agreed on the first part re. average 'no packs' players; in my opinion, it's a completely different game once you 'invest' 😃 (investing is too big of a word, gambling doesn't fit) real money.
There is an upfront cost consisting of energy bars, but, again, in my opinion everyone should aim for 20k prestige points, especially air-focused players since you can easily get 2-3 SH everyday with 60 recovery (10 base + 50 from the weekly challenge).
Regarding the second part about L20 300k+ str, their only investment should be energy bars because at a certain point you can 'print' money - https://www.erepublik.com/en/article/are-you-earning-or-losing-money-with-every-hit--2765039/1/20 😛
