Spend your Future Tycoon tokens on Legendary Unicorn fragments and high-grade pet skill books first, followed by scarce Chief Gear and Chief Badge upgrade materials. Do not spend this limited event currency on speedups, basic resources, or standard crates that normal settlement routines provide.
Future Tycoon Reward Priority
The Tycoon Exchange features items with drastically different acquisition costs. Dice rolls in the board minigame are restricted by daily tasks, biocaps, or purchase bundles, meaning token totals are strictly limited during each event run.
| Reward Category | Priority | Recommended Purchases | Why Buy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Legendary Pet Items | Highest | Legendary Unicorn fragments, pet skill manuals | Delivers permanent combat stats and passive squad buffs that outlast hero generations |
| Chief & Gear Materials | High | Tactical designs, high-tier badge alloys and tags | Applies global stat bonuses across Infantry, Riders, and Hunters |
| Standard Supplies | Avoid | Basic resources, generic speedups, hero search maps | Readily obtained through daily gathering, radar tasks, and alliance events |
Top Priority: Legendary Unicorn and Pet Upgrades
Legendary pet assets offer the highest stat return in the exchange shop. The Legendary Unicorn grants march bonuses, defense mitigation, and squad-wide combat buffs that scale with star and skill levels. Purchasing fragments directly through the Tycoon Exchange bypasses standard recruitment cooldowns and dedicated pet banners.
After securing fragments, allocate remaining tokens to pet skill manuals and evolution items. Pet skills provide permanent passive bonuses to rally leaders and garrison defense. Unlike troop numbers, pet stat enhancements remain fully active even as your squads sustain casualties during Capital Clash and State vs. State (SVS) conflicts.
Second Priority: Chief Gear and Badge Materials
If your state progress caps pet upgrades or your Unicorn is already maxed, direct tokens into premium Chief Gear materials and Chief Badges:
- Target high-tier bottlenecks: Buy tactical designs and high-grade badge tags required for orange or gold tier breakthroughs.
- Avoid low-grade materials: Skip green and blue crafting items, which can be acquired without spending event tokens.
- Focus on universal value: Chief stats apply globally to all three troop types (Infantry, Riders, and Hunters), providing broader account value than single-generation hero fragments.
Rewards to Avoid
Avoid spending tokens on items that your settlement generates passively or that regular weekly events supply in bulk:
- Basic Resources: Food, Wood, Metal, and Gas can be gathered on the map or collected from alliance resource depots.
- Universal Speedups: General, construction, and training speedups offer low comparative value relative to permanent pet and gear stat upgrades.
- Standard Hero Crates and Search Maps: Standard maps and common plasma do not justify the opportunity cost of missing locked event assets.
When to Spend or Save Tokens
Check your state rules before the event concludes to verify currency rules. Future Tycoon tokens typically carry over between rotations.
If your token balance at the end of the event is insufficient to purchase a full set of Legendary Unicorn fragments or high-grade badge components, save your tokens for the next rotation. Accumulating tokens across multiple events allows you to purchase complete upgrade tiers at once rather than settling for low-tier filler rewards.

This saved me time in the early game.
Can you add more details about resources in a future update?
Good guide for State of Survival players. The resources part was useful.
The explanation is clear, especially for beginners.
