Daily activities

Daily activities

Your daily to-do list in the game: nineteen rows, one schedule window they all share, and the gift that claims your Activity rewards.

What it is

Your daily to-do list in the game: the levy and the tax, the alliance, the Shrine, the Tavern, the Hospital and more. One row per activity, nineteen in all.

Where

Instances ▸ open an instance ▸ Duties ▸ Daily activities

You need

A running instance. Most rows also walk to a building, so your city needs to be mapped.

When it runs

In the gaps between your plan tasks, while the instance is running. Every row starts Off.

Each row is something you would otherwise tap through by hand every game day: collect the levy, help your alliance, visit the Shrine, heal troops. You switch on the rows you want. Evonex does each one in a free moment between your plan tasks. As the daily reset gets close, it makes room for any once-a-day row that has not had its turn yet. The Daily activities key at the top of Duties scrolls straight to this card.

Read a row

• The ON / OFF switch. Hover it to read what it does: On — this duty takes its turn whenever it comes due. or Off — this duty never runs, and nothing waits for it.
• An icon, then the row’s name. Click the name to open the row’s settings.
• A small round gift after the name. It appears when Claim activity rewards is on and the row is on, and shows how the game’s Activity window sees that activity.
• A lamp and a status chip. Hover the chip to read the reason.
• The ⚙ button. It opens the same settings as the name: Settings for this duty — when it runs, and how it behaves.
• A summary of the row’s schedule in a few words. When a row is skipped or held, the reason follows it in orange.

Switch a row on

1. Click the row’s name (or ⚙) to open its settings before you switch it on. Several rows start with answers that spend gems, gold or resources. The table below says which.
2. If the window has a Task setup tab, open it and check what the activity will do. Change anything you don’t want.
3. On the Schedule tab, check How often and the rest (see below). The defaults suit most rows.
4. Click Done, then switch the row ON.
5. Start the instance. Nothing on this page runs until the instance runs. After that, every change you make on this page reaches the running instance at once.

What the status chip says

Each row has a chip that says where it stands. Hover a chip to read the reason.

The Schedule tab every row shares

Open any row’s settings and you land on its Schedule. It says when and how often the row runs. Rows that do something with options of their own (what to train, which general, how much to spend) also have a Task setup tab. Rows with nothing to set show only the Schedule.

Claim activity rewards

The gold gift on the card’s header claims what the game’s Activity window holds for all this work. It starts on. Once your due daily activities have run, Evonex opens the Activity window. It collects the rewards for finished tasks and the progress chests. It also checks that the game counted each activity you run. The small gift after a row’s name shows how the game sees that row, and the number beside the big gift is today’s activity points. If you switch the gift off after it has already checked today, a window asks whether to keep today’s results or clear them. The full story is on Activity rewards.

Two homes for five activities

All nineteen rows

A row that walks to a building needs that building on your city map. If it is switched on and the building is not mapped, Overview ▸ Needs setup lists it with a Fix button.

How it runs

• Rows run only while the instance is running, in the gaps between plan tasks. A row that is switched off never runs.
• Once a day rows have until the daily reset, at 00:00 US Pacific time. Each waits for a free moment and pushes into a busy plan only as the reset gets close, unless Run before plan tasks is on.
• Every few hours rows come back that many hours after their last finished turn, up to their Run cap. They never push into a busy plan.
• When several duties are ready at the same moment, the order is Protection, Buffs, Daily activities, Reward claims, then Common tasks. Inside this card, rows with Run before plan tasks go first, then the rest in the order shown.
• A failed turn is tried again later the same game day, as far as Retry when it fails allows. The chip reads Retrying meanwhile.
• While a plan task is in Solo, every row reads Standing down.
