I'm at level 33 and gold nuggets are from events as stated and once in a blue moon in packs but not enough to build. Look at chart to see what you will need. A very slow process. I bought 12000 and finished 3 bldgs. Need another 18000 to finish wall and then palace 34. Its nuts the way they do things. Plarium is money hungry.
I need gold nuggets. I am at lvl 34 and can’t do any building. Why aren’t they in the packs? I am stuck and want to get to lvl 35 so can upgrade my Oracle. More nuggets please
You get gold nuggets in the Coffers of the Gods which (very occasionally) drop when yielding level 9 Gifts of the Gods tiles awarded to a Kingdom for placing first in a Fury event.
The only place I can find nuggets is in Weekly Quests. You can get more if you pay for Northern Brotherhood. (Which I think is a ripoff!) I'm at Palace 39. The only way I got there was to pay in gold. Best to wait till there is a task where there is a reward for spending gold.
