In the world of Evony: The King’s Return, power is everything. It determines your rank, your respect, your ability to defend, and your success in battles and events. That’s why so many players have one big goal in mind: to reach 200 million power.
Whether you’re a free-to-play warrior or a serious spender, this guide will show you exactly how to hit that 200M mark — and what to do after you get there.
💡 What Does “200 Million Power” Actually Mean?
In Evony, your total power comes from five main things:
- Troops – The more (and higher-tier) troops you train, the faster your power rises.
- Buildings – Upgrading your castle, hospitals, barracks, and other buildings increases your power.
- Research – Technologies in your Academy give long-term, passive power.
- Traps and Defense – Building traps and leveling up your walls adds to your overall strength.
- Heroes and Subordinate Cities – Well-equipped heroes and city boosts increase your stats and power.
Reaching 200 million power is not just a number — it means you’ve built a solid base, trained strong armies, and invested wisely in your kingdom. It also makes you eligible for better alliances and advanced game events.
⚙️ How to Build Power Fast (and Smart)

Here’s a simple, practical roadmap to help you climb to 200 million power without wasting time or resources.
1. 🏹 Train Troops Every Day
Troops are the fastest way to gain power — but also the easiest way to lose it.
- Focus on higher-tier troops (T10, T11, or T12 if available).
- Don’t train more than you can heal — always balance with hospital capacity.
- Use troop training speed-ups during events to double the reward.
💡 Tip: During the Power Increase Event, troop training gives maximum points — time your training around this!
2. 🏰 Upgrade Your Buildings Strategically
Your castle level is the foundation of your growth. The higher your castle, the more buildings you can upgrade, and the more features you unlock.
Important buildings to focus on:
- Castle: Required for troop upgrades and key features.
- Barracks / Stables / Archery Range: Helps unlock higher-tier troops.
- Hospitals: Increases how many troops you can heal.
- Warehouse: Protects resources from raids.
- Wall & Trap Factory: Adds defensive power.
💡 Pro Tip: Focus on upgrading in batches during construction events to earn speed-ups and resources.
3. 🧪 Do Research (Lots of It)
Research is slow, but it gives permanent and safe power gains — unlike troops, research can’t be killed.
Key research areas:
- Military: Improves troop attack, defense, and training speed.
- Defense: Boosts your ability to survive attacks.
- Advanced Military: Unlocks special upgrades like march speed, healing speed, and attack buffs.
- Subordinate City: Boosts city control and adds passive power.
💡 Smart Play: Use research speed-up items during Academic Competitions or tech events.
4. 👑 Strengthen Your Heroes
Heroes are the heart of your army and the key to your growth.
Here’s how to build powerful heroes:
- Level them up through EXP and daily quests.
- Equip them with civilization gear and refine their attributes.
- Use skill books to give them special abilities like troop buffs or resource gathering bonuses.
- Assign subordinate city mayors to boost power and reduce costs.
💡 Don’t forget to upgrade your General Hall — it gives major buffs once you collect specific heroes.
5. 🛡️ Join Events and Gather Rewards
Regular events in Evony give you massive rewards like:
- Speed-ups
- Gems
- Resources
- Troop healing boosts
- Hero scrolls and equipment
Top events to watch:
- Monarch Competition
- Power Increase Events
- Server vs Server (SvS)
- Battlefield (BFA)
- Undead Invasion
💡 Tip: Save your speed-ups and use them during these events to maximize rewards and power growth at the same time.
⏳ How Long Does It Take to Reach 200 Million Power?
Player Type | Time Estimate |
Casual (few hours/week) | 6–12 months |
Active (daily player) | 2–4 months |
P2W/Spender | 1–2 months |
If you time events well, use your speed-ups smartly, and stay active in your alliance, 200 million power is achievable even without spending money — it just takes more time and planning.
