Labour Hour generation - how does it really work ?

[Sir Max Magic]

Hi Guys

 

Simple Question:

What affects the LH GENERATION per Day  (...NOT the maximum WALLET !!) ??? 😉

- your Captains Rank ?

- or your Crafting Rank ? 

- or neither of both ??

Or could it be that you get every Day the same amount no matter whether you are lowest or highest rank ?

 

I know, lower Captain Ranks are capped at lower WALLETS than higher ones, but that doesnt mean, you get lesser LHs/Day...  

...and i am fully aware of the 2 Perks you can choose to bolster your Generation and your Wallet, but i am not speaking of those...

 

Cheers and thanks

as far as i remember old system had 42LH generated per 1 real life our. And then they have changed it to 72 (? that one should be checked.) so the new players has their wallet refiled way faster.
Also - there is perks that gives you a bigger LH wallet and LH generation. 
 

Before the wipe/release I was filling my 3k wallet ~1.5-2 days.

So to summarize for a complete understanding

- Your LH generation per hour/day does NOT get affetced by either your rank nor your crafting rank...

- The only thing which is changed by your rank, is your WALLET aka the number of LHs you can allocate...

Is this true ???

1. correct - labor hour generation is not affect by anything - it is a constant regeneration rate. (iirc, currently it is 100 labor hours an hour)

2. correct, increasing your crafting rank increase the labor hour wallet maximum, nothing else. example Crafting rank 1 has 1,000 LH wallet, whereas crafting rank 4 has 2,134 LH wallet maximum.

You character's Navy rank is irrelevant.

Your crafting rank=X labour hours per hour generated.

Only way to increase your character's craft rank is building ships.

Max LH / 24 (hours) seems to be the case

1k refills 24 hours

3k refills in 24 hours

Thanks to both of you...BUT i just created a brand new char (no crafting rank, no Captains rank) and he can store at maximum 1.000 LHs...but i have the very strong impression that he refills those 1.000 several times, e.g. 3 times, per day... Have to look on my watch the next time, he is empty

it was used to be generating a certain amount of lh each real time hour. You crafting or character rank doesn´t matter.

And as can´t remember reading a patch note about it, i still think that this is still the case.

Perfect answer mate, many thanks
