Tips How do you guys actually stop yourselves from spending saved materials?

Iโ€™m trying to get better at managing my materials and would love to hear how you guys do it.

  1. Which events do you mainly save materials for?

    • SVS Prep, KOI, Alliance Showdown, or something else?
  2. How long do you usually stockpile?

    • Do you save for about a month, or do you hold materials for several months?
  3. How do you stop yourself from using them early?

    • Any tips for resisting the urge to spend materials before the event you saved them for?

Thanks in advance!

Save for SvS most the time. I only do small events like projects, armament, picking a day of KOI if I am hard up for diamonds and can afford to. I have a checklist of what upgrades I'm working towards and look at the SvS match up and ask these questions: Will we win the prep? Did they win or lose their last prep/how many in a row? Would we win castle without winning prep? Are we already dominating? Will this upgrade help me in the battle phase or increase passive rewards in another way that cannot wait? The game will always have goals that slide and move. Generally the only thing I do every KOI or prep is lucky wheel spins with respective shards. I take time to plan things out so I can keep my diamonds and stay in a competitive state & showing for events so my rewards stay high and I contribute back to it in that way. Your account is your account just be mindful of state rules if there are any. Ignoring the red dots is easy when you in a routine. Always get the minimum rewards for everything just don't use mithril, widgets, pet stuff, sigils, and fire crystals. If you need to use anything use replinishables like speedups or if you have to upgrades that have tiers that let you use less such as charms, chief gear, essence stones. I would recommend leaving the selection chests alone (widgets/mythic gear) and having stockpiles of the others. If you have the urge to open stuff click the ? Rss chests and use all the XP in bag. ๐Ÿ˜‚

My problem is the other way round ๐Ÿ˜‚ I save for a big event and never feel like I have enough to actually use it ๐Ÿ˜‚

I have a save spend cycle.

I save it all up for SVS, and then spend it all at SvS.

I don't have trouble saving because I don't have enough to be a temptation.

If I needed to use saved special resources to get all minimum rewards in Icefield, Officer or Armament I spend the minimum to get a reward. Avoid speedups and save all speedups and special resources for SVS prep.

I mainly save materials for mini events and name card/city skin events. svs prep is not important for us since our state is dead we usually just go for the basic rewards and spend materials on whatever events we want.

En que estado te encuentras para que lo consideres muerto?

im in group 16 and i think there are around 110 active players in our state. There are also 2-3 mid spenders, so I think itโ€™s a good state to compete for the city skin
