Strongest Warzone

Max out your Zone Development to get the most from events and to boost your account progression!

Day 1: Anthill Development

Preparation

Start a full stack of buildings across all your Worker Ants—Queen, Rally Center, or Depots—timed to finish about 3 hours after the Monday reset (or as close as possible) to avoid unnecessary speedup use. Yes—this requires a little calculation, but you can use the calculator bellow to check the time when you want to start a building to hit required time for completing it.

Highest-Value Buildings

  • Queen
  • Rally Center
  • Depots
  • Resource buildings last

Tips and tricks:

  • Overlap with Colony Actions
  • There are a few Colony Actions in a row, so use a Raspberry 10 minutes before one CA ends and the next begins. This way you can complete two CAs with one Raspberry.
  • Use speedups to finish resource buildings; they’re more speedup-friendly and give better value.

Near- or Maxed-Out Anthill

After most of your buildings reach level 25, you can’t really participate in the Anthill Development event. You’ll need to wait for a Lost Island to open on your server to participate again. At that point, focus on Anthill Enhancements.

Day 2: Gather Resources

Preparation

If you can’t get 9 shells during the event in one day—or you’re aiming to win—you’ll need to pre-gather. Use level 7–8 nodes and return right after the daily reset. Before recalling your troops, use a Raspberry and a Gather buff, then empty your stamina to Wild Beasts and send your units back out immediately.

Tips and Tricks:

  • Level up your Locust insect to increase your gathering perks.
  • The Cultivator class and its building give a broad gathering boost. Remember to select the right class features for the resource you’ve chosen to gather.
  • Use T2 Carrier ants to maximize load and march speed for each Troops.
  • Buy gathering speed buff from Alliance store.

What to gather

  • Gather the resource you need to progress with your next day event.
  • If you want maximize points: Check World Buffs to see which resource you gather fastest. Focus on that resource to maximize load and points.

Day 3: Evolution

Preparation

  • Start one big evolution that don’t use Creature remains what you can speedup or finish with one ore more Colony actions during the day.
  • If you can’t start a big one before the event, start smaller one that will fill or finish one Colony Action.

During the event day use your advanced raspberry at the start of evolutions with creature remains and before the evolution completes.

Your evolution focus with Creature remains should be like this:

  • Zone Development until it is 100% done
  • Guardian, Shooter or Carrier Ant tree CR researches based on what you play as main
  • Advanced combat to get Ant Swift Combat for your main ants
  • Zone Fight

After you run out of Creature remains you should focus on

  • Soldier Healing (Need to be done before double reward can be researched)
  • March Troops
  • Guardian, Shooter or Carrier Ant tree based on what you play as main first

Tips and Tricks:

  • Only use creature remains on evolution day for more points.
  • Try to time evolution starts, speedups, and finishes with Colony Action to get more rewards!

Day 4: Strengthen Special Ants

Preparation

  • Redeem spores from your green and blue ants throughout the week and save them for the next event.
  • Save all Kiwi Honeydew for the entire week.
  • Save all eggs for the entire week.

When the event begins

There is a Colony Action every two hours. Don’t blow everything at the start—spread your materials so you can complete as many Colony Actions as possible during the day.

Tips and tricks

Colony Action — first cycle

  • Take a Raspberry before starting.
  • Start 20 Auto Battles with your four troops to hit Lv. 15 Wild Creatures.
  • Redeem spores from your green and blue ant shells.
  • After Wild Hunt, finish the CA by opening eggs if needed.
  • Don’t overextend.

Colony Action — second cycle

  • Repeat the first cycle’s steps without redeeming spores.

Colony Action — third cycle

  • Take a Raspberry before starting.
  • Start the maximum number of Auto Battles with your four troops to hit Lv. 15 Wild Creatures.
  • Use Kiwi Honeydew to level up your Special Ants:
    • If your Pro team isn’t all Lv. 50, use all Kiwi on them.
    • If your Pro team is fully Lv. 50, focus on your next lineup.
    • You can also feed Kiwi Honeydew to Development Ants just enough to unlock their skills.
  • Open new skills for Special Ants and level those skills up.
  • Star up Special Ants.
  • If you still have eggs, finish the CA by opening eggs.
  • Level up some useless blue ant and upgrade all the skill up to top. After that go in Special Ant decomposition and you get all honeydew and shells and 75% Spores back.
  • Don’t overextend. Aim to complete as many Colony Actions as you can during the day.

Target: A solid F2P account with decent Zone Development should manage 3–4 Colony Actions in the day and reach the max of 9 shells.

Day 5: Hatch Soldier Ants

Preparation

  • Know what to do and when.

Colony Action to do

Tips and Tricks

  • Set a full set of Ants hatching so that they will be waiting for the first CA
  • Focus on highest tier soldiers

Day 6: Free choice (Recommended: Gathering)

  • Aim for Gathering today for safe, steady points and to stockpile resources for next week.
  • Use T2 Carriers to maximize load and march speed.
  • Run Cultivator class with the right class features for your target resource.
  • Use your Locust insect for stronger gathering perks.
  • Pop a Gathering Speed Buff (Alliance Store) and time a Raspberry just before you recall.
  • Pre-gather plan: Fill marches on Lv. 7–8 nodes well before reset. Right before recall, use Raspberry. Use Stamina and redeploy troops to gather.
  • Check World Buffs and target the fastest resource for your account to maximize load and points.
  • Keep marches rolling all day.

  • Maxed out your insects at this day when u are under the raspberry buff

Warzone Expedition

Gathering

  • In server expedition, it is best for all players of a server to gather in enemy server.
    • Use a minimum amount of t1/t2 to gather if server is active if server is active.
    • Inactive servers send out t1/t2 the max load troops.
    • Use gathering speed buff, you can buy it from alliance store.

Fighting

  • Fighters should hit stacked squirters and raspberry for large stacks (+20/30 stationed Troops in the squirters)
  • Hit garrisoned hills and defend by hitting gathering tiles in your own server
  • It is best not to stay in a squirter or afk in a squirter, but if you must.. use your pro troop or 50k t1. But really, don’t stack in squirters
  • Maxed out your insects at this day when u are under the raspberry buff

Event calculator

Strongest Warzone – Day Calculator (Alliance Help)

Default assumption: server reset is at UTC 00:00. Use the “Server UTC offset override” if your server uses a fixed offset (e.g., UTC+3). This tool computes when to start so it finishes at the chosen time.

1) Alliance Help Research

Pick the highest research level you’ve unlocked. Values already include previous levels (“includes”).

2) Alliance Center Level

Total help reductions =

3) Build/Research Base Duration

Enter the total base duration before helps (xxD xxH xxM xxS).

4) Desired Finish Time

Server UTC offset override

If enabled, the finish time above is treated as server-local time at the offset you set here (e.g., UTC+03:00). We’ll convert it to UTC internally.
