You may have noticed that as you are getting stronger, your buildings and research are taking longer and longer to complete. Well there is good news! Once the first Royal Scramble has taken place in a server, the kingdom unlocks ministry roles. Each separate role offers a different buff to boost your building, research, training, healing speeds, and resource production.
The quickest way to access the application page is to open up your user profile, then select your server number. This will take you directly to the ministry appointment page so you can apply for the buff best suited to you.
There are two roles that you cannot apply for. King and Queen are appointed manually. To apply for the one you want, simply open up the buff you are wanting and select apply. You can only apply for one at a time, and there is a 30 minute cooldown before you can apply for the same position again. They will last for five minutes and then automatically move through the queue so pay attention to your time and set a reminder if you need to. On busy days the queue can be very full and a wait time up to four hours.
The other way to access this menu is from the royal city. Select the royal city and then manage, this will show you a list and you want the official appointment, its the same screen as before so a bit more of a roundabout way to get there.
The different buffs are as below:
King: Hero HP +5%, Hero ATK +5%, Hero DEF +5%
Queen: Building construction speed + 20%, Research Speed +20%, Training Speed +10%
Minister of Strategy: Infirmary cap +20%, Healing Speed + 20%
Minister of War: Training Capacity +20%, Training Speed + 20%
Minister of Construction: Building Construction Speed +50%, Research Speed + 25%
Minister of Development: Research Speed +50%, Building Construction Speed +25%
Minister of the Inner Court: Grain Output +100%, Timber Output +100%, Herb Output +100%
Once Kingdom Wars begin, if your kingdom is the winner, two extra roles are unlocked and there is a buff added to all of the roles until the next KvK battle as follows
King: Hero HP +10%, Hero ATK +10%, Hero DEF +10%
Chief of Affairs: Building Construction Speed +60%, Research Speed +60%
Chief of War: Overall March Speed +5%, Enemy Troop Death Rate in PvP +5%
Queen: Building construction speed + 30%, Research Speed +30%, Training Speed +15%
Minister of Strategy: Infirmary cap +30%, Healing Speed + 25%
Minister of War: Training Capacity +25%, Training Speed + 30%
Minister of Construction: Building Construction Speed +60%, Research Speed + 35%
Minister of Development: Research Speed +60%, Building Construction Speed +35%
Minister of the Inner Court: Grain Output +165%, Timber Output +165%, Herb Output +155%
For all roles excluding Minister of the Inner Court, you want to wait until your appointment begins before starting the task. For example, if you want to upgrade your sanctuary, you would have all your resources ready to go and once you have been appointed as the Minister of Construction of Chief of Affairs then you would begin the upgrade.
For Minister of the Inner Court, you want to have been letting your resources build up for a little but not to the point that they are full. You want to redeem your resources towards the end of your ministry appointment time.
