Guide to the More Than Gems event in Rise of Kingdoms: when and how to spend gems
The More Than Gems event is considered one of the most profitable for spending gems in Rise of Kingdoms. Unlike most events, where bonuses are given for purchases with real money, here players receive rewards simply for spending Gems - a universal game currency that can be earned for free.
How the event works
More Than Gems lasts two days and appears approximately once every 4-6 weeks. During each day, players receive rewards for reaching the gems spent thresholds: 300, 1000, 3000, 7000 and 25,000 Gems.
The main value is the golden Universal Legendary Sculptures , which are extremely difficult to obtain in large quantities in the usual way. For spending 7,000 Gems per day you will receive 5 sculptures, and for 25,000 Gems you will receive 13 sculptures. The maximum reward for two days is 26 sculptures when spending 50,000 Gems.
How many Gems to accumulate
For F2P players, the optimal goal is 14,000 Gems (7,000 for each day). This gives you 10 sculptures for minimal cost. With this approach, each sculpture costs approximately 1400 Gems - the best value for money.
For those willing to spend more, the maximum goal is 50,000 Gems (25,000 per day). This will yield 26 sculptures, but the efficiency is lower: each sculpture costs approximately 1923 Gems. An additional 18,000 Gems gives only 8 sculptures on top - that is 2250 Gems apiece.
What to spend Gems on during the event
Any expenditure of Gems counts towards event progress. The most profitable directions:
- VIP Points are a permanent bonus for your account. VIP 10 gives a daily gold sculpture, VIP 12 - two, VIP 14 - three.
- Books of Covenant - necessary for leveling up the castle to level 25 and opening T5 troops.
- Wheel of Fortune - if the wheel with the desired commander is active at the same time, Gems are counted for two events at once.
- VIP Shop - boosters and useful items at a discount.
- Courier Station - great deals on speed and resources.
Tips for F2P Players
You shouldn’t wait for an event until VIP 6 - develop actively. After VIP 6, start saving Gems exclusively for More Than Gems. Collect gems through daily quests, map loot, alliance gifts and promotional codes.
If you don't have 14,000 Gems, don't spend them on small purchases - it's better to wait for the next event. Plan your spending in advance and keep an eye on the gaming calendar.
