Investments are the main way guilds can improve their cities. Each building requires a different number of investments, also referred to as ticks by the community, to increase in level. The cost of each investment is based how much the player has already contributed to that building. The investments leave with the player when they leave the guild. Guilds can also use Guild Choice to decrease the investment cost by 10%.
Investment Cost[]
Each building has a modifier that determines the gold and gem cost of each investment.
