Evony Tactics Scrolls Farming and Military Academy Priority

In Evony, Tactics Scrolls serve as the dedicated research currency for the Military Academy, a building unlocked once your Keep reaches level 36. Unlike standard Academy research that uses basic resources, Military Academy nodes require hundreds or thousands of Tactics Scrolls alongside gold to unlock advanced combat buffs and march expansions.

To maximize progress at Keep 36, farm scrolls continuously through Mysterious Relics and high-tier boss rallies, then allocate early scrolls exclusively to March Size and your main troop type's attack node.

Best Farming Methods for Tactics Scrolls

Tactics Scrolls cannot be substituted with standard speedups or basic resources. Consistent progression requires combining passive gathering with active rally participation.

1. Mysterious Relic Exploration (Zero Stamina)

Exploring Mysterious Relic tiles provides a reliable, stamina-free stream of Relic Crates and slate fragments. When opened in quantity, Relic Crates frequently yield Tactics Scrolls along with crafting materials and general fragments.

• Keep marches deployed to relic tiles overnight or during work hours when you cannot actively join rallies.
• Equip gathering generals with march speed gear to reduce travel time between your city and relic sites.
• Save and open Relic Crates in bulk during Monarch Development events to fulfill event score milestones.

2. High-Tier Alliance Boss Rallies (Active Farming)

Joining alliance rallies against high-level monsters provides the fastest burst yields of Tactics Scrolls.

• Standard Bosses: Target level 12 (Kamaitachi) through level 15 (Phoenix) monsters, which drop boss chests containing scroll bundles.
• Event Bosses: Prioritize event monsters such as Ymir, Nian, and Pan for high drop rates.
• Double-Drop Optimization: Join rallies using low-tier mounted troops led by generals equipped with double-drop rings or luck gear (such as Sanada Yukimura or generals wearing Dragon or Achaemenidae rings). Doubling boss chest drops doubles your scroll returns per point of stamina spent.

Military Academy Research Priorities

Because scroll requirements increase sharply at higher tiers, spreading your scrolls evenly across multiple branches will weaken your combat effectiveness. Focus on high-impact offensive nodes first.

Step 1: Maximize March Size and Rally Capacity

March Size is the most valuable research node in the Military Academy. Increasing your march capacity raises total damage output and survivability in both player-versus-player combat and Server vs. Server (SvS) battles. If you act as an alliance rally leader, invest in Rally Capacity immediately after March Size to boost total allied troop limits.

Step 2: Focus on a Single Primary Troop Attack Node

After maxing the available march capacity for your current Military Academy tier, channel all remaining scrolls into the attack node for your main combat troop:

• Ranged Attack: The recommended default for most keeps, as archer marches provide the foundation for solo attacks, defense, and battlefield trading.
• Mounted Attack: Best if your primary account focus is monster hunting and boss clearing speed.
• Ground Attack: Ideal for specialized accounts built to counter archer-heavy defending keeps.

Do not spend scrolls on defense or health nodes until your primary troop type's attack node reaches the limit of your current building level. Higher offensive power reduces battle duration and limits total troop casualties more effectively than minor defensive increases.

Reducing Research Costs and Timers

Military Academy projects feature long completion timers. Before committing scrolls and gold to any node:

1. Equip your Research Monarch Gear.
2. Appoint an Academy duty officer with high Politics and active research time reduction talents.
3. Activate an alliance research buff or monarch title to shave days off high-tier project timers.
