Does SW really gather 2x normal vill?

Post by Hawk_Girl »

When collecting crate, vill does 20 a tick. Since cdb is 1.25x a vill, it gathers 25 a tick. But a SW only gathers 33 a tick, while it should gather 40 a tick if it was actually worth as much as 2 vills. This have bothered me for quite some time. Can someone please tell me what I am missing here?

This is taken from age of empires III wikia

Bonuses Edit
Civilization Bonus: Free Uhlans that arrives with almost every Home City Shipment, mercenary shipments send more mercenaries. Settler Wagons gather crates 2.5 as fast as normal Settlers, gather resources twice as fast as a normal Settler but also take two population slots and only have the attack of one settler both in and outside the Town Center.

So you mean one SW gather one crate in only 2 ticks? That is 50 a tick, if they gather 2,5x vills on crates. Surely that's not the case?

Yeah no Im taking these numbers from nilla, but i assumed it was the same on TAD, which was clearly wrong from me. So SW work rate is very different from TAD to nilla then?

I don't play on nilla so I would not know, but SW do gather 50 per tick on TAD, for a while I wondered if SW actually had a base gathering of 2.5 because of it, but they don't its just for crates.

on nilla then, does gathering at rate of 33 take 3 or 4 ticks to get crates?

3 a tick for SW, 4 for cdb, 5 for vill, and 0.2 for hjortronet with latest hack.

thats because you are a nilla person, i know this bec i 1v1ed you myself a cpl of times.
if you dont mention nilla in your questions ppl assume that you are talking about tad when you make such questions.
gather rates for crates for SW are different in TAD and NILLA as far as i know. they gather faster in TAD.

EDIT: didnt see this answer was pretty much already there, idk how to delete posts, sorry for spam

Regarding settlers and SW comparaison, I tested building speed and 1 SW builds faster than 2 vills

Did you test gather rate on other than crates? That's really the most interesting thing, and I haven't tried it myself other that observing crates.

I think I did and checked 2 vills= 1 SW in terms of gathering, otherwise I would remember. It's kinda easy to check, honestly.
