Here the mathematics can not be applied in a normal way.

Keep in mind that the bonus applies only for 3 hours and the game calculates it in relation to that time, but taking into account that it was 60 hours I would say "there are 1 day 21 hours".

Good Morning

Thanks for the reply Elias.

Are you saying that the game calculate the 25% reduction but only for the next 3 hours ie it assumes it's then back to the 'standard' speed. Using this logic, the maths still does not work. With 60 hours to go and then for 3 hours there is a 25% speed boost ... if only these 3 hours are affected then there should be only a 45 minute reduction in build time.

As per your post, I expected the remaining time to reduce to 1 day 21 hours.

I will recheck when the current 3 hour boost window finishes .. and specifically check/record the timings immediately before and after the activation of the Phylarch bonus. 

Okay; didn't get to it yesterday but here are some figures :

Phylarch building speed boost not activated                  Phylarch 25% building speed boost activated

remaining : 1D 4H 26min                                               remaining : 23H 59min

remaining : 2D 1H 36min                                               remaining : 1D 17H 51min

(numbers are immediately prior to and then immediately after the Phylarch bonuses are activated)

So, not saying it is a bug, but would like to understand why the numbers do not reflect a 25% reduction.

Thanks, Tel
