Soldier Upgrades

DIRECT ANSWER

Soldier Upgrades: current answer

AG-12 reduces the points needed to upgrade regular soldiers, elites and bosses. Use the requirement shown in the current upgrade interface rather than a pre-launch or launch-day cost table.

Quick facts

  • All three named categories—regular soldiers, elites and bosses—are covered by the point-requirement reduction.
  • AG-25 separately makes Special Soldier work speed increase with rarity; this is a colony-work change, not a complete combat-upgrade formula.

Practical workflow — editorial guidance

Record the soldier category, current progression state and displayed required points before an upgrade.

Compare equivalent soldiers when checking an older cost claim; do not extrapolate one category's requirement to elites or bosses.

Keep colony work-speed observations separate from combat performance when evaluating a higher-rarity Special Soldier.

Evidence limits

No full point-cost curve, maximum upgrade level, refund rule or stat-per-level table is supplied by these announcements.
