[Kravenn] Training Contracts : When to sign one ?
Kravenn
Since the daychange, you can a see banner (like this one) about training contract
Sorry it is an old one but result is the same
If you click on it : you are redirected to special item page and you can see these 2 items available
What these contracts means ?
It means that if you pay 25 Gold : Your training costs will be 50% less during 30 days and if you pay 53G : they will be 90% less during the same amount of time.
Does it useful ?
Yes and NO, that's why I published this article.
Yes for some people, and NO for some people too. It only depend from what training grounds you use. That's what I'm explaining just below
ATTENTION : Super Soldier medals are not included on these costs. If you want them included : I suggest you the link at the end of the article
When It isn't useful
Case 1
You only use the First training ground (whatever its quality)
Daily cost for using this training grounds = 0G. In 30 days, your cost will be 0G (and on the same time, you will gain some gold by using it)
Because your training cost = 0G in 30 days : You have NO REASON to take a contract (and burn at least 25G)
Case 2
You use the first and the second Training grounds
Daily cost for the first one = 0
Daily cost for the second one = 0.19G
In 30 days, your cost will be : 30 X (0 + 0.19) = 5.7G
Because your total cost is below the price of a contract : you have NO REASON to sign a contract
Case 3
You use the first, second and third ones
Here, your daily cost is 0 + 0.19G + 0.89G = 1.08G and your total cost : 30 X 1.08G = 32.4G
If you sign a 50% contract, it will be : 25G + (30 X 0.54G) = 41.2G
If you sign a 90% Contract, it will be : 53G + (30 X 0.108G) = 56.24G
Sign a contract will make you lost more Gold than if you don't take one => NO REASON TO SIGN
When it is useful
Case 4
You use the first, second and last ones
Your daily cost = 0 + 0.19 + 1.79 = 1.98G and your total cost is 30 X 1.98G = 59.4G
If you sign a 50% contract , it will be : 25G + (30X 0.99G) = 54.7G
If you sign a 90% Contract, it will be : 53G + (30 X 0.198G) = 58.94G
It means that if you take a 50% contract, you will save 4.7G and if you sign a 90% one, you save 0.46G
Sign a 50% contract will make you save almost 5G when the 90% one is almost useless : Take the 50% contract in that case
Case 5
You use all Training grounds
Your daily cost = 0 + 0.19 + 0.89 + 1.79 = 2.87G and your total cost is 86.1G
If you sign a 50% contract , it will be : 25G + (30X 1.435G) = 68.05G
If you sign a 90% Contract, it will be : 53G + (30 X 0.287G) = 61.61G
If you use all training grounds : sign a contract is ESSENTIAL, the 50% one will make you save 18.05G when the 90% one is able to make you save 24.49G
Here : Sign a 90% contract, if you don't have enough gold : try to sign a 50% one
Summary
Well, this article was a little bit long and even if you didn't read all, I made a summary just for you.
Training contract are good but only in some cases :
Don't sign a training contract as long as you don't use the last training grounds
Sign a 50% contract only if you use the first, second and last training grounds
Sign a 90% contract only if you use all training grounds
PS : Screenshots are showing Q4 training grounds but amount mentionned are good whatever the quality of your own training grounds
You exactly want how much it will cost you in 30 days (Medals included) : I suggest you this website http://tools.narrenturm.eu/trainingCalculator.php

Useful information. o7
Never sign for me. XD
you should also add a point about not signing a contract at day change but to wait a couple of hours as this means on the 31st day you will have a couple of hours to get an extra reduced cost training in (obviously on the first day also wait before you train)
It's also worth noting that if you have all four training centres, and the combat stash (giving you +10% gold earned for SS medals), and you get 31 trainings from your contract, you will spend 61.897 gold and get 61.38 back from SS medals, meaning you gain 2,970 strength at a net cost of 0.559 gold.
excellent and useful - stuff likes this needs archiving or sticky status as it is very useful for the majority of users
