Kingshot Truegold Crucible: Practical Strategies for Truegold Refinement
This guide provides a straightforward breakdown of the refinement system in the Truegold Crucible. Because the cost of Truegold increases the more you refine in a single week, finding the right balance is important. We have outlined several weekly routines that take the daily half-price bonus into account. By comparing the cost-to-output ratios below, you can choose a practical strategy that fits your current resource levels without overspending.
Key Buildings Upgrades
These Buildings are the primary sinks for Truegold and Tempered Truegold. Plan your upgrades wisely.
Base Cost Structure (Without Daily Discount)
Here is the baseline cost before the daily 50% discount is applied. You can see exactly where the efficiency begins to drop.
| Tier Range | Cost per Refinement (Truegold) | Expected Tempered Truegold | Cost per Tempered Truegold | Efficiency |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 to 20 | 20 | 1.45 | 13.79 | Most Efficient |
| 21 to 40 | 50 | 2.15 | 23.26 | Moderate Cost |
| 41 to 60 | 100 | 3.18 | 31.45 | High Cost |
| 61 to 80 | 130 | 3.44 | 37.84 | Very High Cost |
| 81 to 100 | 160 | 3.71 | 43.13 | Lowest Efficiency |

Practical Tips
Target Plan L3
For most players, 26 refinements a week is the sweet spot for balancing resource spending and steady progress.
Avoid Arbitrary Numbers
Stopping exactly at 30 or 50 means you are paying full price for those final few attempts. Stick to the precise numbers outlined in the plans to use the discount effectively.
Frontload on Monday
Doing your bulk operations (20, 40, or 60) on Monday ensures your daily half-price bonuses apply to the most expensive slots for the rest of the week.
