Wartune player types

I collected for you some player types, or rather, player characteristics, „archetypes”. Which one you feel most similar to yours? Which is the one you don't like?

Jane, the casual. Jane plays 1-2 hours a day. She does not buy balen, does only a few events, and always spends her resources before there is a spender event for them. Every time she wants to do a multi-player event, she have to yell in guild/world chat to find partners.

Joe, the IT specialist. Since Joe works with computers, he can be online all day. He does every action, every event each day, never miss any of them. He plays even when he sleeps, a script is farming sylphs for him.

John, the solo player. Unlike Jane, John doesn't like yelling on world chat. Fortunately, he plays on a merged world with S300, S301, S302, ... S320. So he have a character on each of those worlds. He have several computers with even more monitors. He does all multi-player events alone. His army energizes the tree, he does a tank with 8 characters, his chars plunder each other for 4M gold daily.

Jim, the team player. Jim has a team of players like him. They do mpds and other multiplayer events on a schedule. They share their passwords, if someone can't log in / busy, a team member does everything for him.

Jack, the smart. Jack plays the game on purely mathematical basis. He hoards every resource, and spends everything in the right time. He optimize his stats, knows every game formulae. He spends only when it is super-optimal. He makes comments on the forum but people usually don't understand him :)

Judy, the casher. Judy has no financial problems and happy to spend money on her hobby. She regularly buys during sales, jumps into every recharge promotion and has most of the mounts and clothes.

Jeremy, the whale. Jeremy is rich. Whenever a new resource appears in the game, he buys it to the maximum during the first sale, at 5x price, and when he finds those items for free later, they will rot in his inventory for the next year. But this is not a problem, because he can be first without spending too much time. And as we know, time is money. Jeremy spent a car's/house's value on a game - without actually playing it and having the joy of achieving something by hard work.

James, the wanna-be top player. James plays all day like Joe. He have a good team like Jim, who can help him when he can't be online. He have multiple accounts like John, for plunder, tanks etc. He is smart like Jack, and buys balens like Judy. He wants to be a top player at all cost - but he will always lose to Jeremy, unless Jeremy gets bored and quits.



Disclaimer: any similarities to actual persons is a pure coincidence.

  3. I am probably more like James but with a couple of differences. We do have a millionaire on our Server and has pretty much ruined the fun for some. He spent a lot of money on getting 999 roses so he could give his girlfriend the Charm title. She now has 40k charm and the closes rival and previous owner who actually did help and deserved the title 28k.

    1. John would know how to revenge... Visit frequently the wild shop with all 20 of his alts, buy all the roses and send to his chosen one :D
