Whiteout Survival Beginner Guide

The best thing to do to teach you about the game is to teach you how to do your daily tasks in the game, and I will prioritize each daily task based on the situations we don’t want to happen to us.

But first, complete your easy chapter missions, and the game will help you get through them without worrying about resources.

First: Complete 5 Chapter Missions As Soon As Possible!

Before getting into main gameplay, make sure you have completed the first 5 Chapter Missions. At the beginning of the game, there is an in-game guide that will help you get started; all you have to do is click on the task icon to help you get through the first snowstorm.

If you have already completed the chapter missions, click on the headings below, which will take you to those headings.

Let’s Talk Situations To Avoid In Whiteout Survival (Most Important)

Steel: (Tip) While completing chapter missions, you will need steel (we commonly run out of steel even in Pay To Win). So make sure you upgrade heroes, recruit them using keys, and complete exploration missions that reward steel.

Read My Complete Guide On How To Get Steel and Use It Smartly.

You can also claim the steel by clicking on the chest Icon in the exploration tab. (shown in Screenshots)

Idle Income will give you enough steel to boost early progress.

After Chapter 5?

After Chapter 5, focus on the tasks to prepare for the first snowstorm from Chapter 6; now, Make sure you focus on the buildings in the following order:

Resource Buildings: Sawmill, coal mine, iron mine, hunter’s hut
Clinic: Upgrade the clinic and make sure you upgrade the furniture. It reduces the chances of survivors getting sick.
Shelters: Upgrade shelters and make sure you upgrade furniture. It reduces the chances of strikes and survivors’ mood drops.

What If You Don’t Complete Necessary Tasks Before a Snowstorm?

You will lose survivors and resources, and most importantly, you will not get the rewards that can help boost the city’s progress.

Situations To Avoid In Whiteout Survival – IMPORTANT

We don’t want certain things to happen to our city, and I will guide you accordingly so we take steps that will keep us far from these dire situations.

While playing this game, our goal is to avoid the following situations and have more robust and better gameplay.

Situation 1: Running out of resources – This is a very irritating experience. Don’t worry; if you follow this guide, you will have enough resources.

Situation 2: We don’t want to be a weak and easy target and lose our resources to other players. This guide will help you defend against your server’s whales (strong players).

ALSO, We don’t want to waste time and money.

For “Not to waste money,” I will include a guide on buying packs and must-buy packs, even in F2P.

For “Not to Waste Time,” I will add a guide to your daily routine in Whiteout Survival.

Now we know what situations we want to avoid. Now I will guide you to avoid these situations.

Situation 1: How Not To Run out of resources in whiteout survival?

Resources are the most important in whiteout survival; you never want to run out. If you are just starting the game, you will be protected from other players with the shield for a few days.

NOTE: Check the backpack for resources; when you complete tasks, resources go there.

This is the perfect time to:

Maximize our resource output
Unlock Construction Queue (Total 2)

Unlock March Ques (Total 6, but unlock at least 3 within 8 days)
(Unlock 1 By Reaching VIP 6,
1 you will need to buy, and the other 3 will be unlocked in research.

Let’s get into the practical part of How Not To Run Out Of Resources.

NOTE: Gems are very important resources in Whiteout Survival; I have written a complete guide to gaining and spending gems in Whiteout Survival. I recommend checking it out to boost your growth in Whiteout survival.

Get More Survivors

To get more survivors, you will need to increase your survivor slot, allowing you to accommodate more survivors.

To Increase survivor slot:

Make shelters

Upgrade Beds
Upgrade Shelter To Next Level

I have written a complete guide on how to get more survivors in whiteout survival and keep them alive.

Upgrade Resource Buildings

Upgrade the resource output buildings in the order mentioned in the list below because you will need these resources in the same order to upgrade furniture.

Sawmill – Upgrade Eugene’s Skill “Woodland Interior” To Increase Wood Output.
Hunter’s hut – Upgrade Cloris’s Skill “Top hunter” To Increase Meat Output.

Coal Mine – Upgrade Charlie’s Skill “Demolition Expert” To Increase Wood
Iron Mine – Upgrade Smith’s Skill “Burnished Iron” To Increase Wood

Focus On Chapter Missions, Growth Missions, and Daily Tasks

These missions are the most important tasks to do when you are just starting the game; these chapter missions will speed up the progress of the city by giving out rewards that include,

Resources
Speedups

Hero XP
Diamonds
Manuals

And Even Soldiers to grow your strength

Complete these missions in the following priority:

Chapter Missions

Daily Tasks
Growth Missions

Rookie’s Growth Missions

Rookie’s Growth Mission is a rookie-exclusive event only available to new players for a limited time. In this event, you must raise your power level to complete these missions. With every completed mission, it will reward you with resources, City Skin, Stickers, and gems.

To raise your power level fast, all you have to do is follow this guide and stay active; this is very important. If you can complete this event, it will be a good start for you.

Believe me, you will want to have the City Skin it offers; it will show that you are a reliable player, and every alliance will want to have you in their alliance.

How To Gather Resources In the Wilderness – Complete Guide

This is the best way to gather resources when you have thousands of troops and are done with most upgrades.

Tips To Maximize The Gathering:

Reach higher Furnace Level and higher troops building level, which will allow you to unlock the latest troops, which can gather more resources (Always keep training troops).
Upgrade Your Heroes, experts in gathering resources, and upgrade the command center and Research Center, which will increase their capacity to take more troops on expeditions; more troops means more resource gathering.

Heroes Who are experts in gathering and lowering the time are the following:

Cloris – For Meat Gathering (Upgrade “Predator” skill to Increased Meat Gathering Speed by 5% to 25% based on the skill level).

Eugene – For Wood Gathering (Upgrade “Master Woodcutter” skill to increase wood gathering speed by 5% to 25% based on skill level).
Smith – For Iron Gathering (Upgrade “Craftsmanship” skill to Increased Iron Gathering Speed by 5% to 25% based on the skill level)

Charlie – For Coal Gathering (Upgrade “Coal Extraction” skill to Increased Coal Gathering Speed by 5% to 25% based on the skill level)

NOTE: When you click on gather after clicking on abandoned Farm, Lumberyard, Coal Mine, Smelter, related Hero will be automatically selected.

For Example: If you gather Wood, then Eugene will be chosen.

NOTE: If you are upgraded and powerful enough, send the related Hero alone and remove the 2nd and 3rd hero (we don’t want our main heroes to get occupied for hours); it can take enough troops on an expedition.

If the troops count decreases when you remove the 2nd and 3rd heroes, then select unimportant heroes and don’t send any main 3 heroes.

Why Don’t Send Main 3 Heroes For Resources Gathering?

The reason is our main 3 heroes are assigned to city defense; if they are out for hours and we get attacked, we should have our strong heroes to defend the city.

Make a Farm Account

You can make 2 accounts per server, and I recommend creating a farm account. If you don’t make a farm account and follow the guide, you are still good to go; you will not run out of resources. I personally don’t create farm accounts. But the more the merrier, extra resources don’t hurt.

TIP: Only create farm accounts when you have joined an alliance in the Top 5; they will probably have a farm alliance, and that alliance will be protected by them. So, you don’t have to worry about farm accounts being attacked and plundered.

How To Get Resources From a Farm Account?

When you have enough unprotected resources by gathering in the wilderness, we will attack your farm account from the main account to plunder resources. (Unprotected resources can be stolen/plundered if you lose against an attack)

Follow These Steps:

NOTE: Send your troops outside of the city, click on an empty land, select “Occupy Land”

(Make sure you send out all the troops; you may have to repeat this process to send all the troops out).
That way, you will not lose your troops, and your main account will not lose troops as well.

Now attack your farm account from your main account!
Your primary account will win, and you will plunder the resources.

Make Sure To Collect Idle Income

This game has two idle incomes: “Resources” and “Exploration.”

Resources: Food, Wood, Coal, Iron (12 Hours)
Exploration: Steel, Hero XP, more… As you upgrade the Furnace Level, more idle income will show up. (7 Hours)

Resource Idle Income will be collected as soon as you log in to the game, but you will have to collect the exploration income in the exploration tab every 7 hours or before 7 hours.

TIP: I will recommend turning on the notification “Resource Production.” It will notify you when work and exploration idle income is maxed.

To turn On Notification, Click Profile Pic > Settings > Notification > Resource Production.
If the notification is On and you are still not notified, turn on the game notification in the mobile setting.

I will suggest setting up a reminder for exploration income (If you are serious about leveling up in this game)

Join Alliance For Territory Bonus And Fast Upgradation

You should join an active alliance as soon as you unlock this feature. It will give you a territory bonus, which will help boost resource production. To help you make a better decision in joining an alliance or if you want to create one, I have written a guide on Whiteout Survival Alliance.

Don’t get attached to your first alliance because you will soon leave for a more active and powerful alliance once your power level is increased.

Alliance will help you grow fast; alliance members will help you speed up the building upgrade and troop healing and help speed up research.

Always Join Bear Trap Event (Most Important)

Bear Trap is the event that takes place every 48 hours at the time decided by your alliance leader. Bear trap event rewards Resources in Millions and Essence Stones (used for hero gear upgradation) based on the damage you deal to the bear.

How do you deal the most damage and get a better ranking even if you have fewer troops and weak heroes? Read the article “Whiteout Survival Bear Trap Guide.”

Situation 2: Whiteout Survival Get Stronger Guide (Troops, Heroes)

As you know, this is a survivor game, and you have to be powerful enough so you don’t get attacked by other players, and you can also perform well in events.

Follow the following tips to create a lot of troops fast:

Make sure you are always training troops From the Beginning

Reach Furnace Level 25 ASAP
Unlock Chief Gears and Chief Gear Charm
Always Complete Heroes-Related Missions

Make Sure You Are Always Training Troops From The Beginning

Not focusing on troops was the mistake I made when I started playing Whiteout Survival. I didn’t focus on troops. I played Pay To Win in the beginning, so my power level was enough to scare off attackers.

Later in the game, I realized troops are the most important, and I should constantly be training the troops and never leave the troop training queue empty.

So ensure you are constantly training troops and troops’ buildings are not idle.

Upgrading Old Troops vs. Training New Troops?

This is an essential question, and the quick answer is, “Always upgrade old troops to the latest troops; the reason is it will take less time to upgrade old troops to the latest one, and you will have many of the latest troops.” Continuing to upgrade is the key to winning this game and getting stronger.

You can read my Whiteout Survival Troops Guide to make better decisions.

Reach Furnace Level 25 ASAP!

But first, please make sure you reach Furnace level 25 As Soon As Possible. It will allow you to unlock the latest troops (Level 9). It will significantly boost your attacking and defensive power.

Keep training troops as you unlock the latest troops; keep upgrading the low-tier troops to the latest troops.

You can check out my blog about “Whiteout Survival Furnace Upgrade Requirements.” it will help you plan ahead so you can reach 25 as soon as possible.

Unlock Chief Gears and Chief Gear Charm

Unlocking Chief Gear and Charms in Whiteout Survival is crucial to get stronger.

Chief Gear

Chief Gear is unlocked at Furnace Level 22, providing significant buffs to troop attacks and defense. Different pieces of Chief Gear enhance different types of troops, such as Lancers and Infantry, contributing to their attack and defense capabilities.

This makes Chief Gear essential for strengthening your troops and improving your overall battle strategy and effectiveness.

Chief Charms

Chief Charms, unlocked at Furnace Level 25, further enhance the attributes of Chief Gears. They are upgraded using specific materials such as Charm Guides and Charm Designs, which can be obtained through event battles like Castle Battle and Foundry Shop. The addition of Chief Charms to your Chief Gear adds an extra layer of enhancement, boosting the performance and power of your troops in various scenarios.

Overall, both Chief Gear and Charms play significant roles in boosting troop performance in Whiteout Survival. I will recommend unlocking them as soon as possible.

You can read more about “Chief Gear And Charm.” I have added a table and tips to help you get the most out of chief gear.

HERO GUIDE: Always Complete Heroes-Related Missions

Heroes are equally crucial as troops. Heroes affect the power level of troops, and their skills come in handy while attacking players or defending against them.

Completing heroes-related missions will reward you with the following:

Hero XP: which will help level up heroes strength
Recruitment Keys: Will help you get Hero XP and Hero Shards and Unlock new heroes at the beginning of the game
Skill Manuals: will help improve skills (Very Important)
Hero Shard: Will help ascend heroes, and they will promoted

1. Focus On Exploration Missions

When you complete an exploration mission, it gives out generous rewards that will help improve heroes, and it also gives out Steel necessary to upgrade unique furniture in buildings and be used in Research.

There is not much to troops and heroes; all you have to do is keep upgrading the furnace level and keep completing missions related to troops and heroes.

2. Complete Gina’s Revenge Event Mission

Gina is an epic hero and one of the crucial heroes to have in your top 5 heroes. Gina has many valuable skills that can speed up your growth.

2 Main skills that Gina offers are the following:

Quick Paced – It increases march speed from 20% to 100% based on your skill level.
Endurance Training reduces stamina costs by 10% to 20% based on your skill level.

Complete the event mission to claim 10 shards, which will unlock Gina.

To complete the mission:

First, you should hunt down beasts that will reward you with the “Horn Of The Cryptid.”

Go To Gina’s Revenge Event tab.
Click Find a Cryptid – It will use 1 Horn Of The Cryptid to find the Berserk cryptid.
Click On Berserk Cryptid and call a rally.
After a successful rally, you will claim the rewards, which will also include 1 – 3 shards of Gina.
Keep repeating the process during the Gina’s Revenge event

If you keep focusing on that, Gina will be the first hero you max out.

3. Focus On Your 3 – 5 Heroes (In the Beginning)

The 3 heroes you send to attack must be your main heroes (try including SSR heroes); they should get the most priority for the skill manual and hero XP.

5 heroes are used to fight in exploration battles and Arena Challenges; out of these 5 heroes, 2 shield heroes must get the priority they take the most damage. If enemy heroes struggle to kill your shield heroes, you will have the upper hand, and your chances of success increase even against heroes with more power level than you (Only if their shield heroes are weaker than your shield heroes)

That way, you will get the most out of the game, and you will not have to spend a lot of resources to be mighty in battle and exploration.

4. Sign In Daily For 7 Days

Make sure you sign in daily for 7 days at the beginning of the game to claim the “7 Days Sign In gift.”

First Day: 500 Diamonds
Second Day: Molly SSR Legendary Hero Unlocked
Third-Day: 10 Gold Keys (Very Important To get New Heroes and Shards to promote them)
Fourth Day: 15 Molly Shards
Fifth Day: 20 Mythic Exploration Manual
Sixth Day: Warden Chest (Include Warden Hero’s Epic Gears, which will be useful as you upgrade your furnace level and unlock hero gears)
Seventh Day: Unlock 5 Widgets of Molly’s Exclusive Gear, “Yeti Spirit,” Which will be used to Unlock or level up Molly’s gear.

Importance Of Shield

Keep an eye on the hostile situation in your state; if your alliance members are being toxic in World Chat, make sure you shield up whenever you go offline so that you can avoid surprise attacks.

Activate Shield for 24 hours during the Brothers In Arm Event, when most of the state’s top 5 or 10 alliances are allowed to attack each other’s farm or allowed to attack alliances under the top 10 or top 5.

Ensure you don’t join weak alliances and move to stronger alliances for protection and faster growth.

To join stronger alliances, you will have to follow this guide to grow powerful as fast as possible and join the top 5 alliances, which will further boost your growth.

Quick Guide To Dailies (Save Time)

Once you are past the chapter missions and have reached a higher furnace level, you have nothing much to do except your dailies.

In this quick guide, I will share my dailies with you, which will be very effective in the long term.

The following are the daily tasks. Perform them in the same order, or as you grow your experience, you can enhance this to get the maximized outcome in little time.

NOTE: While completing daily tasks, an icon for help will show up right above the alliance tab. Make sure to keep clicking it. It gives out alliance currency that can be used to buy items in alliance shops, and this habit boosts the alliance’s growth.

1. Claim Idle Income

As you already know, there are two types of idle income: “Resource Income” and “Exploration Income.”

Resource Income will be automatically collected when you log in to Whiteout Survival; this idle income limit is 12 hours.
Exploration Income will have to be collected manually; look at the left side of the cookhouse or click on the exploration tab and click on the chest to collect your idle income. (7 Hours Idle Income)

2. Go To Alliance

Click the Alliance icon and contribute to Alliance Tech to maintain your contribution ranking, which will allow your alliance to grow fast and will help all of your fellow members grow stronger.

NOTE: Always contribute in “Thumbs Up” tech to +20% extra reward.

This might look unimportant, but as the state/server grows, you will understand the value of the contribution. Many big Alliances promote the players based on their contributions as well.

Claim Alliance Chests:

Click on Alliance Chest and claim “Alliance Gifts” and “Loot Chests” and claim a big chest if available.

Check Alliance Shop:

In the Alliance shop, the only items worth buying are: (Prioritized in order)

Advanced Teleporter (Teleports wherever you wish)
Shields (8 hours)
Speedups
Alliance Teleporters (Teleports Near To Alliance Leader)
Territory Teleporter (Teleports Near To Alliance HQ)
Random Teleporters (Teleports At Random Places)

NOTE: Only buy when available at 70% off.

If ytou want to learn more about Teleporters in whiteout survival, when to use and how to get more read my detailed guide on whiteout Survival Teleporters.

3. Chief House

Click On Chief house
Click Festivities

It will take 15 minutes to complete, improve the mood of our survivors, and after completing all the daily tasks, move to our next task.

After Festivities What To Do? (Share This Tip With your Friends)

After 15 minutes, when “Festivities” is no longer active, we will activate “Productivity Day” and “Urgent Mobilization.” Both should be activated at the same time to get the most out of the chief house.

While both are activated, click on the “Rush Job” to get the most out of the Rush Job order. It will give you 5 Game Days worth of resources, and it will also add more resources because of the “Productivity Day” and “Urgent Mobilization.”

NOTE: Activating both chief orders at the same time will decrease the mood of the villagers; that’s why we activate the festivities to maximize the survivors’ mood.

4. Claim All the Rewards

Claim daily rewards in events, deals, in the top-up center, and many more will show up at the upper right corner, and make sure to get rid of red dots.

5. Must Dos

Click on the icon showing on the left side of the screen in the middle, as shown in the screenshot below.

You will see a list and make sure all the lists are busy and claimed, and never let that annoying red dot show up for a long time; this is the key to faster growth.

Make Sure construction queues are busy.
Ensure you have claimed the trained troops and troops are upgrading/new troops are being trained.
The research queue should be busy.
Alliance contribution is already done in the previous step, but still keep an eye on this option and keep contributing.
Make sure Advance Recruitment and Epic Recruitments are claimed.
Claim Online Reward

NOTE: When you claim Online Reward in the wilderness/world view, it will not take you to the Storehouse, but make sure you visit Storehouse in the morning, and in the evening (Real Life Time), it gives out “Chief Stamina” that you will have to claim within a limited time before it expires.

This way you will never run out of stamina for your daily important tasks.

6. Complete Intel Missions

Before we Open Mails or send out expeditions to gather resources, we will complete the intel missions for extra Hero resources, like shards, manuals, and hero XP, and resources like food, coal, wood, iron, Explosive Arrowheads (used for bear trap) that will show up in the mail (As your state grows you will unlock more rewards).

7. TIPS

First: Send out heroes to complete Beast Hunting missions (Make sure you unlock all 6 March queues ASAP)
Second: Send rescue missions
Third: Complete Hero’s Journey Mission

When you send a rescue mission and complete the Hero’s Journey (Exploration Intel Missions) missions, your heroes will be back from hunting Missions. This approach will save time so you can move to the next task.

8. Open Mails

Now you can open emails and claim all the rewards In:

Reports
System
Alliance

Also, check out the war tab if it is showing a notification.

Check out alliance notices in alliance to stay updated with alliance tasks and events.

9. Claim “Daily Mission” Rewards and Complete Remaining Tasks In Daily Missions

While following the previous seven tasks, you will complete most of the daily tasks; now, you can claim rewards for everyday tasks and complete the remaining tasks. (Complete any tasks that include sending out troops because we will use them later on step 11).

10. Upgrade Heroes/Recruit Heroes

You will have enough hero upgrade resources when you finish all the previous tasks. Recruit heroes and claim your free keys:

Advance Recruitment: Total 5 Free Keys Daily, 1 Key every 5 Minutes.
Epic Recruitment: Total 1 Free Key Daily, Every After 24 hours.

NOW! You will have more daily missions completed, claim the rewards, and return here if you receive any items to upgrade heroes.

Now, we can move to the next task with upgraded heroes because we will need upgraded heroes.

11. Complete Arena Challenges (Arena Of Glory)

After upgrading heroes, we are ready to fight in the Arena. Fighting in Arena is very important, and you should never miss a day because it will give you a higher ranking and unlock better rewards (Daily Rewards And Season End Rewards).

If you want to get the most out of the Arena challenges, rank higher, and, most importantly, what to do with rewards, you can check out my “whiteout survival Arena guide.”

12. Send Out Troops To Gather Resources Before Leaving the Game

When you are done with events and daily tasks, we are about to close the game and join the real life; make sure you have sent out the troops. Because it takes so much time to gather resources and we want to do it when we are not playing.

NOTE: Unlock all 6 queues as soon as possible and fill the maximum march queue; make sure you are gathering all 4 resources. Leave the 1 March queue for the “Auto Join,” which we will discuss in the next step.

I have already talked about how you can get the most out of gathering resources; by clicking on the link, you will go to the “Gather Resource Guide.”

13. Enable Auto Join Before Leaving the Game

In the Alliance War tab, make sure you have turned on the auto-join and saved the formation that you want to send when a member calls a rally.

There are two troop formations you can choose from:

All Troops (Deploy Heroes Automatically)
Use the Formation (Custom)

Which One To Choose?

I use custom formation; if you have read this guide, you probably know why, we don’t want our main heroes to automatically go outside the city when we are offline. We need them in the city for city defense against attack.

You will be protected with shields, but later in the game, when you grow stronger and join stronger alliances, you don’t care about shields. But surprises happen, and there is also state vs state later in the game, and developing this habit will be harmful.

How to Set Custom Formation For Maximum output? – Guide

Follow the following steps:

Go to the alliance tab
Click on war
Click auto join
Click the Gear sign right next to “Use The Formation.”

TIP: You can assign as many troops as you want to send out to join rallies, but keep the number even. Choose 1 hero; the best hero to choose is GINA and Walis Bokan. Both move fast, which will be helpful to join more rallies.

If you don’t have Gina or Walis Bokan unlocked yet, you can choose any hero that is not very powerful.

Now, let’s talk about the packs you should buy as a beginner.

What Packs To Buy In the Beginning Of Whiteout Survival (Save Money)

Whiteout Survival is a Pay To Win game like any other survivor game, but 1 thing I like about this game is that even if you are F2P, you can still be relevant in the state and enjoy the game.

But there are some packs you must buy for faster growth and I will suggest playing this game by spending a few bucks to be more helpful and stronger.

NOTE: If you are strictly going F2P, then you can stop reading this guide and move to the next heading, where you can learn about some very, very helpful tips that I learned with experience.

Now, if you are willing to spend fewer bucks and not too much, keep reading. I will help you save money.

I have also written a detailed guide on the whiteout survival pack; check it out; it offers so much information.

Following are the packs to buy when you start the game and fall in love with the snow theme and style.

March Queue Pack
Construction Queue Pack
Ultra Value Monthly Card – Auto Hunting
Speed Up Weekly Card

1. March Queue Pack (Permanent)

The permanent March queue pack is the most important pack you will ever buy in this game; as you grow in your city, you will find that even 6 queues are insufficient. I highly recommend you buy this pack.

With the first purchase, you will also unlock Natalia – Legendary Hero.

2. Construction Queue Pack (Permanent)

Construction queue is also critical, and it will save a lot of time. It will double the growth of your city, and you can stay relevant and helpful to your alliance with faster growth because everybody will be buying this pack and other packs I will mention below.

You can also unlock this construction queue for 1000 gems for 2 days, but if you are willing to spend, this is a must-buy.

3. Ultra Value Monthly Card – Auto Hunting

This pack is also essential and contributes to the growth, but it also unlocks special features, “Auto Hunting” and “VIP Time.”

VIP time will allow you to benefit from VIP levels and claim daily rewards.

Auto Hunting manages the troops and attack beasts automatically, which will save time while you are busy doing other important tasks.

4. Tips For “Auto Hunting” Feature

After buying this pack, you can use the auto-hunting feature. You can send out two troops formation on two march queues to hunt down beasts.

Make sure you assign heroes that can move fast, like Gina and Walis Bokan
Assign minimum troops that can successfully hunt down the beast (Keep an eye on the message shown in the Screenshot; make sure it says, “You are quite likely to prevail.”
TIP: Use Gina First because she lowers the stamina cost, allowing you to keep it enabled for a long time.
And save and send formations.

5. Speed Up Weekly Card

The fourth must-buy pack is the speedup weekly card, which will speed up your city growth and power level, which will help you survive snowstorms and complete your rookie’s growth event in time.

Claimable Dailies Are the Following: (You get 2500 gems when you buy the Pack)

Whiteout Survival Extra Tips/Uncommon Knowledge (Important)

Focus on the furnace level, keep upgrading it, and reach furnace 25 as soon as possible. It will boost your power, but don’t stop here. Reach furnace level 30 to be in the top 20 chiefs, which will reward you 60 Fire Crystals and 2k Gems.
Many resources are collected in your Backpack, but they don’t show in the resources production overview.
Those resources are protected and can’t be plundered if you get attacked and lose.
You only lose unprotected resources when you are defeated against an attack; make sure you don’t replenish all the resources in your backpack and only use what is needed to upgrade.
When you farm resources in the wilderness, they go into unprotected resources, and you should use them as soon as possible.
You can change the food menu and treat your villagers with fancy meals to keep them full and healthy and improve Survivor Stat.
Remember to claim exploration idle income when you close the game and send troops to gather resources.
In the top 3 Alliances, players are Pay To Win and are the most active. Buying a pack also rewards the alliance member with a chest that has 1 to 5 levels, which includes different rewards.
Make sure you join the top 3 alliances for faster growth.
