A simple guide for new members
To start off, click map. Your city is labeled with a green number, that is your level based on prestige.
Now click on general, that is your rank title based on your upgrade and prestige.
To upgrade your buildings in the city view you need 2 things,
1. the required resources. Resources are accuired first by completing the tasks in your task list then clicking collect reward. Then by upgrading your mines in the city, they give more resources per hour based on level also. Other ways to get resources are by occupying oasis's, they give a specified amount per hour based on the level and the level of oasis drops by 1 every 24 hours while it is occupied. You can steal resources from other players by attacking there city and winning. You can also buy resources with gold in the marketplace and you can buy resources with coins from the treasures tab then click buy treasure. Make sure that your warehouse is upgraded enough to hold the resources that you buy.
Also you will need.
2. Enough ppl to complete the upgrade. People are made in the main building, per hour based on your main building level.
In order to gain prestige you can do several things.
1. Upgrade your buildings and mines located in your city view by clicking on them then pressing upgrade.
2. Building troops, when you build troops in the barracks you earn a certain amount per each troop type.
3. Attacking other players to earn prestige Is the fastest way to earn prestige, it's also the riskiest, in order to gain prestige from battles you must not lose more troops than you kill. If you attack 10 catapults and you win with 25 catapults but you lose 10 also you will gain no prestige.
4. Hunting gains prestige when successful but only about .02 prestige per 1 dollar of gold harvested.
As you do the tasks and earn prestige you can upgrade your title until you reach certain ranks then you will need to locate a certain treasure/treasures to rank up. These items can be purchased from other players in the market place or from the treasures tab then click buy treasure, you will need coins to purchase from there. Also if you're lucky you may find treasure in a hunt but it's rare and you will need to be able to hunt enough troops for a long enough time to earn the npc gold price value of the treasure you are hunting for.
VIP: VIP time can be purchased in the main building with coins, this will allow you a total of 3 hunting, 3 attacking, 3 building upgrade, 3 trap/turret build, 3 tech upgrade, 3 troop training slots instead of 2, it also gives you a 50% decrease in time to upgrade techs and removes the 15 second post delay. I hope this helps you all and have a good Haypi experience! If you need anything else mail me or find me in chat. FastTrain, aka 1million.
