Hello CIM! 

Valkyries' Citadel allows to upgrade some characteristics of the troops. Please note that upgrading stats in this building is a unique process and it has the following peculiarities: 

1. The process can be started at the same time with upgrading Knowledge or a building;

2. Only one upgrading process can be started at a time in the Valkyries' Citadel. Having the Second Craftsman/Prophet doesn't have any effect on the number of troop type processes;

3. Your Clan members can speed up the process by using the Help clansmen function. 

4. The process cannot be completed instantly for free using VIP status;

5. Upgrading the troop types, as well as Knowledge, increases the amount of the Hero's and Shaman's experience, and the player's Influence;

6. The Influence received due to troop types upgrading is displayed in the Palace, Statistics tab, Influence section.

Please note that bonuses from troop type upgrading in the Valkyries' Citadel are displayed in the Palace, in the Military tab, Troops section, but are not displayed in the detailed information of a battle report.

If you have any more questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us. Enjoy the game!

Live and learn :P

well, in my case, it was a worse experience... have make plenty of research in the valkyries citadel thinking that i was making point in the kvk... but research in valkyries citadel don't give any point, construction only give point...

I am guessing that knowledge 10% or 20% or 30% or 35% bonus items that reduce the amount of time also do not reduce the time for doing these upgrades ... and equipment for knowledge reduced time ... ??? I have not started doing these, the chief of our clan is the one who informed me/us about the vip time boost bonus not applying.

Yes. That is correct.

Example with no hero skills / gear and warrior shaman:

Then with maxed hero on knowledge skills + gear, Inga the Wise maxed and 35% knowledge boost:

Not much help there in other words. Not on time and not on RSS. The latter gets rather steep as well.

The things I've found actually apply are:

1. Event time boosts (as in: "Duration of Speed-Ups extended by 10%!")

2. Clan help.

It sucks considering the $$ and effort made to get knowledge on learning etc. Finally got Inga to stage 6 and then this came along lol.

Is the post above concerned with knowledge  up grades in the oracle, or the new building?

I have just revisited  the new  building to refresh my memory , it appears to be only for troops, and I cannot see the numbers you mentioned, but maybe the reason for that is you are able to upgrade higher tier troops.  

Inga the Wise is obviously worth getting,I hope, but I suppose it depends how far you have progressed in the game.

If you have done all the knowledge in the oracle and decided to go for Inga 60 just for the citadel, I can see why you think it was bad deal.

No, I have loads left in Oracle. The expensive kind :0

The example above is for first level t1 when two other t1's are maxed.

So - yes, I get use for Inga regarding Oracle, but still think it is a bad deal, :P

(In regards to Inga in general I sent a PM as I tried to make this answer shorter lol)

Do knowledge upgrades in the Valkyries Citadel give influence points in the personal or clan influence increasing competition?
