How do I maximize points in a Last War Troop Training event?

Train the highest-tier troops available to you — points are weighted by tier, so T7 and T8 training gives dramatically more points per training session than T1–T4. Before the event starts, stockpile resources and speedups so you can immediately begin large training batches when the event opens. Fill all training queues simultaneously and use speedups to accelerate if needed to meet milestone targets within the event window.

Should I use speedups during Last War events?

Yes — events are the best time to use speedups. Event rewards (speedups, hero shards, exclusive items) can be worth more than the speedups invested. Calculate how many speedups you need to reach your target milestone using the Event Calculator, then compare the investment to the milestone reward value. Generally, spending 50–100 hours of speedups to earn 80–200 hours in rewards is worthwhile.

When does Last War reset events and what is the typical event schedule?

Last War events rotate regularly on a recurring cycle of approximately 2–4 weeks. Most events run for 5–7 days. The schedule includes Training events, Construction events, Alliance wars, and combined events. Major events (often called 'Championship' or 'Season' events) occur monthly and offer the highest-value rewards. Staying active in an alliance provides advance notice of upcoming events through alliance chat coordination.

Are Last War ranking events worth competing in?

Ranking (leaderboard) rewards in Last War typically require extremely high spending or activity that few free-to-play players can match. Unless you're already in the top tier of your server, milestone rewards are the better return on investment for most players. Focus on reaching the final or second-to-last milestone (usually 70–90% of the total), which typically contains the best free-to-play value per point invested.

How Last War Events Work

Last War: Survival Game runs regular limited-time events that reward players with premium items (speedups, resources, hero shards, and exclusive gear) in exchange for completing specific in-game activities. Events typically run 3–7 days and have two reward structures: milestone rewards and leaderboard/ranking rewards.

Event Point Sources

Different events reward points for different activities. Common point sources include:

Activity	Event Points Generated
Troop Training (higher tier = more points)	Per troop or per batch
Construction upgrades	Per upgrade, scaled by time cost
Research completion	Per research level
Alliance Battles	Per kill or contribution
Gathering Resources	Per resource unit gathered
Hero upgrades	Per star or skill level

The Event Calculator identifies which activities generate the most points per time invested and per resource spent.

How the Event Calculator Works

The Event Calculator estimates: 1. Points needed to reach target milestone 2. Activities required — how many training rounds, upgrades, or battles 3. Resources needed — food, gold, steel, oil to fund the activities 4. Speedups required — time acceleration if activities would otherwise take longer than the event window

Example Calculation

Event goal: Reach 50,000 points (Milestone 4) in a Troop Training event: - T5 troops: 10 points per troop trained - Target: 50,000 points / 10 points = 5,000 T5 troops to train - Training time for 5,000 T5 troops at 2 min each: 10,000 minutes ≈ 7 days - With 20% training speed research: 8,000 minutes ≈ 5.5 days - Event duration: 5 days — tight; speedups required for buffer

Event Efficiency Tips

Tip	Impact
Pre-stage activities before event starts	Build up queues, start them when event begins
Focus points on your primary progression activity	Don't train T1 for points when T5 gives 5× points
Join an alliance for group event bonuses	Alliance events multiply individual contributions
Save resources specifically for event timing	Don't upgrade buildings between events

Common Event Types in Last War

Event Type	Best Activity
Troop Training Event	Bulk-train high-tier troops
Construction Event	Stage building upgrades before event
Research Event	Queue research upgrades timed to event window
Alliance War Event	Active battle participation
Kill Event	Only join if your alliance is prepared to shield you afterward
