College research only costs resources: no gems, no Azurite. So in theory it's free. Run a few more farms and keep it busy.

Research priorities

  1. Finish every line in Military, and Guardian Force for angels.
  2. When you have the RSS, finish the other frontline and backline lines too. Elite War needs a 4-1-4 formation, so every troop type matters. See Formations.
  3. Once the other lines are done, research for more defensive play.

City Defense: what's worth it

  • Golems are useless. When you want no troops at home, golems let others attack you and keep you in battle.
  • Do go for Alliance Defense I and II: they increase the HP of all your defense troops.
