[Math] Harpoon production, watchtowers, mines and farms [More Math, Do you find math fun?]
If you have a Stronghold level 21, you can upgrade an Advanced mine.
This topic looks at some numbers so players can plan Harpoon use according.
This topic is not to discuss Advanced building times, and production rates, but some people will anyway. Because. Forum.
Upgrading a mine
While upgrading, you are missing a mine.
3x Mines Level 20+ Watchtower Level 20
Harpoons equals 5.179 hours of production.
After upgrade
Advanced mine Level 10+ 3x Mines Level 20+ Watchtower Level 20
Harpoons equals 4.058 hours of production.
Without upgrade
I recommend upgrading mines first to increase iron production. Unlike camps and food hoards, there is no way to hoard iron, and retrieve it later, after your iron storage is full.
4x Mines Level 20+ Watchtower Level 20
Harpoons equals 4.323 hours of production.
Upgrading a farm
For comparison. While upgrading, you are missing a farm.
8x Farms Level 20+ Watchtower Level 20
Harpoons equals 1.110 hours of production.
After Second upgrade
Rumored Stronghold 23
2x Advanced mine Level 10+ 2x Mines Level 20+ Watchtower Level 20
Harpoons equals 3.824 hours of production.
Math
Mines x3
94,600 / ( ( 3617 x3 ) + 7414 )= 5.179
With AM10
94,600 / ( 5045 + ( 3617 x3 ) + 7414 )= 4.058
Mines x4
94,600 / ( ( 3617 x4 ) + 7414 )= 4.323
Farms x8
63,000 / (( 5,300 x 8 ) + 14,331 )= 1.110
With AM10 x2
94,600 / ( ( 5045 x2 )+ ( 3617 x2 ) + 7414 )= 3.824
