Tempered Truegold

“The Royal Foundry’s further refinement of Truegold enhances its hardness and ductility, transforming it into an extraordinary material.”

Tempered Truegold is a material you need to upgrade your Town Center and other buildings past TG5. Before TG5, upgrades only need Truegold and regular resources, but after TG5, Tempered Truegold becomes an extra required material.

Super Refinement

Super Refinement is the main way to get Tempered Truegold, so using it efficiently is really important. You can do up to 100 Super Refinements per week, but the Truegold cost increases a lot as you move into higher tiers. This system is designed to stop players from rushing everything at once, which is why staying in the right tier matters.

Super Refinement Tiers

• Tier 1 (1–20 refinements):
  20 Truegold → 1–3 Tempered Truegold
• Tier 2 (21–40 refinements):
  50 Truegold → 2–3 Tempered Truegold
• Tier 3 (41–60 refinements):
  100 Truegold → 3–6 Tempered Truegold
• Tier 4 (61–80 refinements):
  130 Truegold → 3–9 Tempered Truegold
• Tier 5 (81–100 refinements):
  160 Truegold → 3–12 Tempered Truegold

Your tier depends on how many Super Refinements you’ve done that week. For example, doing up to 20 refinements keeps you in Tier 1. Once you go past 20, you move into Tier 2 (21–40), and the same logic applies to the higher tiers.

There’s also a daily bonus: the first Super Refinement each day costs half Truegold. So if you’re in Tier 2, your first refinement of the day only costs 25 Truegold instead of 50.

Best Strategy

The most efficient approach is to:

• Do 20 Super Refinements at the start of the week (Monday) to take full advantage of Tier 1’s low cost.
• After that, do only one Super Refinement per day for the rest of the week.

This keeps you in Tier 2, lets you benefit from the half-cost daily refinement, and still gives you 2–3 Tempered Truegold per day at a much lower overall cost.
