Prestige
Prestige is an incentive for attackers.
All dominions start with 250 prestige.
Prestige Bonus
| Type | Multiplicative | Additive |
|---|---|---|
| Offensive power | No | Yes |
| Food production | No | Yes |
| Population | Yes | No |
Formula
Prestige/100=x% bonus
Multiplicative
If you have 0% population modifiers you will still get the prestige bonus.
For example, if you have 250 prestige and no other population bonuses you would get +2.5% max population:
1.00x(1+250/10000)=1.025
Gaining Prestige
Prestige is most commonly gained by invading other dominions which are at least 75% your land size. Alternately, a mutual War can give you some prestige from black ops.
Formula
The standard formula for prestige gain is:
100*min(1,LandRatio)-40+TargetLand/250
- You can hit 4 bots without any sort of penalty, starting with the 5th your prestige gain will dip by 5% each successive hit (always gaining at least 50% of normal prestige)
- For human players- you can hit the same exact guy twice without penalty, starting with the 3rd your prestige gain will dip by 10% each successive hit (always gaining at least 50% of normal prestige)
- The excessive hitting penalty is multiplicative with prestige bonuses (e.g. Techs or the Golden Throne Wonder).
Examples:
- Hitting a target 75% of your size yields
75% * 60 = 45 prestige - Hitting a target 110% of your size yields
110% * 60 = 66 prestige - Your sixth time hitting a bot at 85% of your size yields
85% * 60 * (1-2*.05) = 46 prestige - Your fourth time hitting a human player at 80 % of your size, while your realm has the Golden Throne (+15 % attacking prestige), yields
80% * 60 * 1.15 * (1-2*0.1) = 44 prestige - Hitting a target 60%-75% yields no prestige change
- Hitting a target below 60% of your size yields a 5% prestige loss for the attacker.
Prestige gains are added to your prestige when the last units return. If you only send units which return in 9 hours, your prestige will be added after 9 hours. But if you also send units with a longer return time, prestige will be added when those units return.
Losing Prestige
Prestige can be lost in the following ways:
- Being successfully invaded (5% prestige loss).
- Being overwhelmed while invading.
- Hitting someone below 60% your size.
Prestige losses are instant.
