6 Tips For Exploding Your Account’s Growth in Travian

Waiting for resources to trickle in by the hour can be a slow mind-numbing process. To counter this problem, you may want to combine other strategies that allow you to grow faster. This is especially important if you are a Roman because for the first half of the game you will play less of an active role.

Regardless of your tribe, you always want to be growing faster than everyone around you. Here are a few tips to get you thinking in the right frame of mind. Remember that there are numerous ways of growing fast in Travian, but if you focus on these and push them to their limits you’ll find your climbing score soaring as well as the amount of troops you can build.

Raid inactive players: Raiding active players is fun, but in-actives don’t fight back and hence you can send your sleepinggamerweaker raiding troops to scoop up as many resources as possible with little/no loss. The fewer troops you lose, the more you have available to raid other players and grow faster.

Only build resource tiles: If you want to grow you will need resources. To do this, make sure you spend a few days building up only resource tiles. There is no point in bringing a building like your armory to a high level if you will have to wait weeks before needing to do your upgrades. Focus on building the buildings that bring you resources and upgrade your resource tiles too.

Get vassals: When you farm players they tend to cranny up. If you send catapults then they put troops in their villages. What happens if they have no troops? They complain. And this is when you strike a deal with them. Don’t ask them to send you 1 hr’s worth of resources for the rest of the game since no one will agree to such harsh terms. Instead determine a specific time. Having a few vassals (who actually send the resources) will let you focus your troops on other farms.

Raid and crop-lock active players: The Teuton way of raiding players is to send three mace men…if they come back then that means there are no troops and resources to be gathered. With the effective raiding of mace men, you should be raiding 100-200 players every day (This is doesn’t take hours but you need to know a trick). If you can afford troop loss, by all means raid active players since they probably have more resources to help you grow.

traviangoldUse gold: If you run a Travian-Plus account you will get an extra 25% of resources. Using the NPC tool is also extremely handy at the beginning of the game to use up the extra resources you have (that will get stolen from raids anyway) to build as many raiding troops as you can.

The market: You can trade for profit on the market. Some players will offer 5000 crop for 2500 iron. When you get the 5000 crop you can NPC it on a 1:1 basis into iron. That way you double your resources.

Make sure you pay close attention to the first 2 months of a server (or few weeks on speed servers). These are the most important stages of the game and they usually set the tone for the rest of the server. They also determine your enemies, so make sure you show everyone who opposes you who is boss by growing rapidly with these 6 tips for growing faster.
