Tips & tricks for building at Last War Survival

When playing Last War, it is crucial to systematically plan the expansion of your buildings - especially once you reach headquarters level 20. Pay attention to the following points when constructing buildings:

  • Combine building construction (opening gifts) strategically with the daily event "Expanding the base" in the arms race competition - to secure valuable chests and bonuses.
  • Apply for the office of Minister of Construction or Economicsbefore the start of construction shortened construction time of 50 % or 25 % to profit.
  • Acquire the ability to work "Building together" (available in the Professional Hall from Season 1 onwards) in order to Increase construction speed by 20 % - the ability must be shared before construction begins.
  • Use the occupational skill "Build now" to reduce all construction queues by up to 600 minutes to shorten.
  • Shorten the remaining construction time through mutual Alliance aid your ally
  • With the professional ability "Free construction" you automatically reduce the construction time of all ongoing projects by up to 240 minutes.
  • Use for large projects Construction accelerator and combine this with the alliance duel on Tuesday.
  • If you have several construction queues, use one for short construction projects and the other for longer construction times - this will keep you flexible and efficient.

Additional building queues

With the Acquisition of additional building lines you can use the Building your base significantly faster. In total you can Acquire up to three additional building lines (four in total). The one-off cost for the 2nd construction snake is €1.99. This investment significantly improves the gameplay.

The prices for the third and fourth snake are significantly higher. We recommend the second snake because it offers the best price-performance ratio for long-term basic development.
