I'm sorry Wesley, but they've changed...

The fortress levels to be downgraded and the required breacons have changed...

I just upgraded (yesterday) a fortess from 8 to 12 and I can tell you that for level 11 and 12 (10-11 and 11-12) it required a 10+ downgrade (for both). Also, to upgrade from 11 to 12 required having a lv.1 beacon.

If you wanted to upgrade it to 13, it would ask for a lv.2 beacon.

Therefore, we can say that with this update on the fortresses the requirements have changed, without informing us of this and that this table is now, at least in part, useless (the number of influence points earned and the required glory points remained the same).

I hope that someone will be able to make an updated table as soon as possible ...

Sorry I can only give  what they give  me to work with  I hope  they update  me 

Of course, they dont have an updated chart for the smaller leagues trying to get up to 17 and above.  They dont care about the smaller leagues because we dont drive them any money because we dont spend any.  

It would take too much time out of them making terrible gameplay decisions.  

I am like a battered person who cannot walk away from an 8-9 year relationship because I am hoping that things will change, but deep down I know better.....

If can help ,here is some info for upgrade your fortress here is a picture collected from a facebook group:

I am sure just for the requerement from 20 to 30 ,the other i can't confirm.

I wish you a good day !

Are you sure about the number of beacon and their level from lvl 12 to 17?

And about the fortess downgrade? I don't know about lvl 8, but about two weeks ago I upgraded my fortess and the level to downgrade are a lot different...to upgrade to 9 I don't need to downgrade anything, to upgrade to lvl 10 I need to downgrade a lvl 9 and to upgrade to lvl 11 and 12 I need to downgrade a lvl. 10... There are also other mistakes I imagine...How can you downgrade a lvl 8? (in your screenshot yoiu need to do it to upgrade to lvl 10).

I post the screenshot of my requirement, to upgrade from 12 to 13, and I DO NOT need to downgrade a fortess (that, I think it's normal).

So, i want to ask to you this: are you SURE about the lvl of breacons that you need? (for what I saw for now, they are right, but I want to be sure before try to upgrade my fortess to 17)

Are you sure that to upgrade to 17 you don't need to downgrade a lvl 16?

I hope that my data could be usefull and you could upgrade your screenshot...

Anyway, I thanks you to this work, it's very usefull!

I am sure for the data  20 --> 30 , since i upgraded last year my fortres from 20 to 30 .

but the under 20 i don't have a track data , and the screenshot is from a facebook group .

And a friend just awared me that from 16 ---> 17 you need to downgrade a fortress lvl 16 or above .

When you get to a level it should tell you the requirements for the next level.  The ones for level 1-20 are pretty low, think you need 5 level 5 beacons for 20.  After that they go up quickly with 5 more beacons for each level.  

Pretty low it depends for who... for a small league having 5 levels 5 is almost impossible... for a league like the King of Kings it's very easy...

In any case, yes, of course it tells you what you need, but keeping the fortess at level 15 or 16 because you're not ready to complete what it asks of you is not that easy... if you know it in advance you can prepare in time...

Anyway, thank you...

Yikes - This is different - Level 12 now requires a Beacon ?

And obviously level 13 is wrong from the screenshot above - no downgrade needed ?

Just working for the new level 12 SAFE ZONE - Not a Beacon playing league

Yes Please get a proper update -  Need to decide how or if to proceed - Thank You 

SERIOUSLY : I find some MAJOR problems with these Fortress Upgrade requirements

1. Lvl 8 - ok got there - moving to Lvl 12 - next safe lvl 

    Lets keep the Fortress in their own lane . Lvl 9 and Lvl 13 should have NO downgrades required because Lvl  8 and now Lvl 12 are SAFE - 

2. See how between the Safe zones they are overlapping each other - 

EX: Lvl 9 needs NO downgrade ( because again Lvl 8 is Safe ) Then SEE

Actually lvl 10 downgrade requirement should be a Lvl 9 Fortress

3. Beacon requirements - should NOT START till Lvl 14 

Beacause Lvl 9 and Lvl 13 have NO requirements

Hello Jules  , 

Like i said in a previous comment i am sure just about the requirements from 20 --> 30 ,since i upgraded my fortres at December.

i

If you have suggestions than you should to post them in the apposite section here :

https://plarium.com/forum/en/stormfall-age-of-war/451_suggestions/

In that way  we are sure those suggestions will be considerated .

I wish you a good day !

Отличная таблица! Спасибо, что поделились с сообществом!😃

Wow - No resolution yet 

Obvious mistakes in the NEW FORTRESS UPGRADE LEVELS requirements

Plenty of time to get this situation corrected

This is a big deal and a game playing challenge

Got to take down a lvl 8 Fortress to get lvl 10 - FAIL

Beacons required for NEW safe lvl 12 - That counts me out

oh well - 

One of my friends , upgraded  recently the fortress of his accademy from 8 to 12 , there was requered just 1 beacon lvl 1 ,  and of course downgrades of certain fortress levels

And ...you waited for a resolution of ???? can you elaborate please ?

Thanks and wish you a super nice day ahead !

Thanks Mic

lvl 12 Fortress did not before require a Beacon - now it does - yes 1lvl1

I play alone in my league - never did the beacons - I was hoping to gain those Fortress benefits

from the NEW upgraded levels - being a free player and all - just for fun .

But the rub comes when two leagues are working together for the upgrades - 

One will get to lvl 12 First - One will have to go to lvl 13 for a take down because lvl 12 is safe

That requires 1lvl2 Beacon - that really pushes a league that does not play beacons.

Yes, Yes, and Yes - Plarium is the rulemaker - I understand this is a League Participation game.

I have not had any luck recruiting new players because everyone wants to play in a bigger league where the rewards are better.

My take away is no more bottom fishing - the game moved on and up - setting achievement levels to push leagues to newer heights with game playing challenges

Yes I am disappointed - Out of my reach - The Fortress is a bedrock of the game

Did you considerated the option to play in a  strong big league ? More rewards, more fun 😎

Right  -  League Play  :)

Got HIT by Lvl 17 , 20 and a 30 Lvl Fortress.. Going to Lvl 12

Edited****

So level 18 is 3 level X 3 beacons and no fortress downgrade ....hard to do and expensive. Another side note, if you are "at peace" with the league you want to partner with for fortress upgrade ....you cant . That designation prevents you from attacking that league and it takes a full 72 hours to deactivate it before you can start downgrading each others castles.

I will not comment on getting 5 level 5 beacons for level 20....clearly nobody in Plarium actually plays their own game. Top players dont need to buy any packages as they have maxed everything out, anyone else doesnt buy packages because whats the point, coiners will just destroy them, so the business model here seems a little wonkey. To endlessly add new things to buy is not efficient....already dominating...why by a different coloured dragon??? Whatever....deaf ears.

3 level 3 beacons is expensive?  If your league has 60 active players you could do it with res and not even spend saphs.  

Who has a league that all the players are on at the same time so you might get one upgraded and while trying to do the next one somoebody knocks the first one down because most league that size doesn't have enough defense to defend a beacon against a full attack
