Alliance Duel Guide: What to Save for Each Day

Alliance Duel Guide: What to Save & Spend Each Day

There are 2 different Alliance Duel events that use the same name. The first 2 Alliance Duels are modified and do not have the cross server kill day. This is important to understand how old your Kingdom / Server is and to check the timeline to best understand.

Shortcut is; has KvK started?

No, then day 6 will be an addional training day like Friday.
Yes KvK Started, then day 6 is kill event!

Alliance Duel: What to Save and When to Use It
Day / Phase	Save and Prepare	During: Use and Claim	Extra Tips
Day 0 Sunday	Save Falcon Quests and avoid using items that earn Alliance Duel points. Essentially, don't spend anything! Start gathering resources so your marches finish on Day 1.	—	Plan events for earlier in the day so you can gather at the end.
Day 1 Enhance Raven	Keep builders working on useful buildings that increase Might, such as the Sanctuary. Save Caravan and Covert Operation rerolls.	Complete or claim Falcon Quests. Gather resources all day. Recall just before server reset. Consume Raven Fruit and Raven Essence. Epigraph Chests may be opened anytime; save their Raven materials for Day 1. Do not open Raven Gear Chests! Spend stamina on rallies and Blights. Keep unused squads gathering.	Use Antitoxin only if you need extra points; otherwise save it for Day 4. Prepare gathering marches for the next reset.
Day 2 Territory Development	Keep useful research running and stockpile resources, especially herbs. Save Falcon Quest claims for tomorrow, Day 3.	Claim completed buildings with the hammer button. Use Construction or Universal Speedups. Dispatch UR Caravans and run UR Covert Operations. Recruit survivors in the Tavern; consume Exclusive Weapon Shards.	Use Minister of Construction or Chief of Affairs before building. Try to save Universal Speedups for research. If this matchup is out of reach, save speedups and completed buildings for Day 5.
Day 3 Tech Research	Save hero fragments, awakening shards, recruitment items, and Antitoxin.	Complete or claim Falcon Quests. Use Research or Universal Speedups and complete research. Spend Study Scrolls on useful technologies. Open Raven Gear Chests.	Use Minister of Development or Chief of Affairs before research. Prioritize Alliance Duel research to unlock reward phases and improve scoring. The source lists Alliance Duel and Caravan Transport research as Study Scroll-only options. Use Caravan Transport for a points push when you have no better scroll use. If needed, hold research completion and speedups for Day 5.
Day 4 Hero Growth	Open chests outside other phase objectives, such as Tactical Supply or Expedition Chests, for a chance at fragments. Train troops one, two, or three tiers below your maximum for tomorrow, Day 5. Save Falcon Quest claims and Training Speedups for tomorrow, Day 5. Keep building and research completions unclaimed for their intended phase.	Use Antitoxin to upgrade your main heroes. Promote heroes and upgrade their skills. Recruit heroes in the Tavern. Consume Hero Awaken Shards or Awaken Omni Shards.	Focus materials on heroes you actually use.
Day 5 War Preparation	—	Promote prepared troops one tier at a time. Claim Falcon Quests. Use Training Speedups.	Use Minister of War for training speed and capacity. Building and research completions, plus their speedups, are fallback scoring options. Prefer saving building completions for the next Day 2 if troop training already meets your target.
Day 6 Raid the Enemy / Everything Day Kill-day version after KvK unlocks; check the active event	Shield before server reset if you will be inactive. Recall gathering squads when the phase starts. Gathering troops can be attacked even while your base is shielded. Remove the squad assigned to wall defense before kill day, in case your shield expires.	Scout targets and coordinate attacks with teammates. Attack exposed gathering troops when appropriate. Keep shields active when defending; reinforce teammates only when you can handle the enemy. Target the matched alliance for about five times the troop points. Enemy defeats, your troop losses and Healing Speedups score. UR Caravans and UR Covert Ops are fallback options.	Use Chief of War for march speed and the enemy troop death-rate bonus described in the source. Avoid sending reinforcements into a losing defense. Construction and Research Speedups are last-resort scoring options. The source recommends reducing wall defenders to limit losses, but notes that some troops may still die.

Plan the week with your alliance

Match upgrades with Survival Battle objectives when possible. The source also links Alliance Duel wins and phase MVP rewards to Kingdom War points.
The source describes 7 match points as an automatic win; you do not need to win every phase. Save surplus materials for the next matchup when appropriate.
If a phase is out of reach, save resources rather than spend your stockpile chasing it.
Universal Speedups score according to the activity they speed up. The source says qualifying pack purchases award points in every phase.
Watch the score near server reset, when alliances may make a late push.
Use the Sunday break to prepare for Day 1 and hold Falcon Quest claims where their expiry allows. Participate for available rewards even if your alliance is behind.

Day 6: shields and defenses

Open your base, then select Shield or Reinforcements. The source shows five free 8-hour shields. To adjust defenders, open the garrison controls under Reinforcements. Confirm your available shields and defense settings before the raid window.

Era of Revival: Claire on Day 4

The source recommends timing Claire upgrades for Hero Growth. It describes a one-time conversion to UR that resets her to level 1, resets her skills and shards, and returns previously spent materials. Upgrade her before conversion, then use the returned materials to upgrade her again during Day 4. Check the conversion preview before committing.
