Knowing how to gather in the Age of Empires Mobile is one of the most important things. Understanding how to gather is crucial because everything in the game, including building, research, training, and healing troops, requires resources. Without resources, you basically cannot play the game.
The amount of resources that you will need is high, especially when you reach the end game, where you will fight a lot. That is why, in this guide, we will cover how to gather fast in Age of Empires Mobile so you never run out of resources.
Gathering Heroes
There are a lot of different heroes in Age of Empires Mobile, but not all of them are designed for gathering. Heroes specifically designed for gathering possess skills and talent trees that enhance the speed and quantity of resources you acquire.
For the gathering, we recommend using these heroes:
King Derrick | Baldassi | Nino |
Darius the Great | Leo | Thanius |
Cleopatra | Leon | Yuan Xia |
Diao Chan | Narses | Kaso |
Gathering Talents
If you are planning to gather faster you must use gather talent trees. What a lot of players are forgetting is that talent trees in Age of Empires mobile are stacking, so you have to choose the right talent tree for each hero.
When you get to gathering heroes’ talent trees, you will see that there are a lot of gathering talents. If you are a new player, there is no point in leveling up gathering heroes above levels 25–36. This level is completely enough for new players. Later, when you reach the end of the game and have leveled up your fighting heroes to their maximum potential, you can also level up your gathering heroes to their maximum potential, allowing you to utilize all your gathering talents.
Gathering Skills
You can equip each gathering hero with specific skills. The problem with this is that it’s not worth it if you’re a new player. First, you have to spend Empire coins to purchase gathering skills, and then you need a high enough level to be able to equip them. Also, upgrading skills is expensive.
When you reach the end game, feel free to upgrade your gathering heroes. Until then, focus on your fighting heroes.
Other ways to boost gathering speed
Your Technology: When you go to economics, you will see technologies for gathering that you can research.
Alliance technology: Your alliance possesses technology that enhances your gathering speed. That is why it is important to join an alliance that has all technology at its maximum level.
VIP: The importance of VIP lies not only in its ability to speed up your gathering process but also in the additional benefits it offers, which can aid in resource management. Try to increase the VIP level as much as possible.
