Maximize your Great Building efficiency with our professional Forge of Empires 1.9 calculator. This tool helps you determine exactly how many Forge Points (FP) are needed to secure positions and ensures you never overpay or get sniped in 1.9 leveling threads.
Forge of Empires 1.9 Calculator
Forge of Empires 1.9 Calculator Formula:
Investor Pay = floor(Base Reward × Arc Rate)
Owner Secure Cost = Total Cost – (2 × Investor Pay)
Source: FoE Wiki – The Arc Strategy
Variables:
- Total Level Cost: The total amount of Forge Points required to finish the current level of the Great Building.
- Current Progress: The amount of Forge Points already contributed by the owner and other players.
- Base Reward: The default FP reward for the specific position (P1-P5) without any Arc bonus.
- Arc Bonus Rate: The multiplier used in the thread, typically 1.9 (representing a 90% bonus from a Level 80 Arc).
What is a Forge of Empires 1.9 Calculator?
The 1.9 calculator is an essential tool for advanced Forge of Empires players. In 1.9 leveling threads, contributors with a Level 80 Arc donate 190% of the base reward to help others level up their Great Buildings efficiently. This “mathematical break-even” ensures that the contributor neither loses nor gains FP, while the owner saves thousands of points.
This calculator specifically determines the “Locking Point”—the moment where the owner has added enough FPs that no other player can “snipe” the position from the 1.9 investor, ensuring a safe and fair exchange.
How to Calculate 1.9 Securing (Example):
- Find the Base Reward for Position 1 (e.g., 100 FP).
- Multiply it by 1.9 (Result: 190 FP). This is what the investor pays.
- Determine the Total Cost for the level (e.g., 1000 FP).
- Subtract twice the investor’s pay from the total: 1000 – (2 × 190) = 620 FP.
- The owner must reach 620 FP total in the building to “secure” P1.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
What does it mean to “secure” a spot? It means the owner has invested enough that even if a sniper puts in half the remaining points, they cannot overtake the 1.9 investor’s position.
Why is 1.9 the standard? Because a Level 80 Arc gives a 90% bonus. At 1.9, the investor gets back exactly what they put in, making it a sustainable community effort.
Can I use a higher rate than 1.9? Yes, some “Power Arcs” offer 1.92 or 1.94, but 1.9 remains the universal baseline for most guilds.
Does this work for all Great Buildings? Yes, the math applies to every Great Building from Zeus to the Hydra, provided rewards are available.
