Evony The King’s Return VIP Guide: VIP Points, Levels and VIP Time

Evony VIP points set your permanent VIP level, and they never decay. Your VIP level and your VIP buffs are two separate things. The level does nothing unless VIP time is active. If VIP time ends, you keep the level and lose every VIP buff.

That makes VIP time a running cost, not a one-time purchase. Before chasing the next VIP level, decide whether you can keep the benefits active often enough to make that level useful.

• 20 VIP levels
• 77,200 points for VIP 10
• 1,157,500 points for VIP 15
• 15,000 Alliance Points per 100 VIP points

Does my VIP level give me buffs by itself?

No. Your total accumulated VIP points set your VIP level. Those points never decay, so your level never drops. You can stop earning points and return later with the same level.

The buffs work differently. They apply only while VIP time is running. A high-level account with no active VIP time receives no VIP buffs at all. It gets no active benefit from its construction speed, research speed, march slots or troop stat bonuses until VIP time starts again.

Your real VIP position has two parts: the level you have earned and the VIP time you can afford to run. Your VIP level also survives a server merge, as our Evony server merge guide explains.

How can I earn VIP points?

Free VIP points come from login streaks, server gifts and the Alliance Shop. Paid points come from packs, bundles and the Auction.

• Daily login streaks. The daily amount grows with the length of your streak and with your VIP level.
• The server gift on the Walls, which can include 100 VIP points.
• The Alliance Shop trade of 15,000 Alliance Points for 100 VIP points.
• Packs and bundles, including dedicated VIP packs.
• Auction lots of VIP points, bid on with gems.

The free routes let a free player raise the account’s VIP level slowly. Reaching VIP 9 without paying is realistic, but progress past VIP 10 is slow. These routes do not supply active VIP time by themselves, so a free account can reach a useful milestone and still need gems before any of its buffs apply.

Keep the daily login streak going if VIP progress matters to you, and compare the Alliance Shop trade with your own priorities before spending Alliance Points. The trade is clear, but the pace remains slow next to paid routes.

How many VIP points does each VIP level need?

VIP 5 needs 3,700 points in total, VIP 10 needs 77,200 and VIP 15 needs 1,157,500. The step from VIP 16 to VIP 17 alone costs 1,929,000 points.

Why is VIP time a running cost?

VIP time costs gems, and it runs out. A guide from 2023 listed 30 days at 3,000 gems in the Black Market against 4,000 gems in the in-game store. Black Market stock rotates, so compare both prices before you buy.

A VIP level is permanent, but that gem bill is not. When the 30 days end, the buffs stop. Buying more VIP points does not replace the need for active time, and earning points through free play does not run VIP time for you.

Treat the two costs separately. VIP points move the account toward higher milestones. Gems keep the earned benefits active. An account can make progress on the first and still get no current value because it has ignored the second.

Which VIP level should I aim for next?

Pick the next milestone that changes how you play. Do not chase a level only because the number is higher.

VIP 5 is the first structural milestone because it adds an extra march slot while VIP time is active. If you are below it, that is the clearest first target.

VIP 8 adds 10% construction speed. VIP 10 adds 10% research speed and is the sensible target for a newer account. It gives that account a clear stopping point before the later milestones demand a larger push.

VIP 13 is more specialized. It adds a further march preset slot and opens the Black Market repurchase option. Aim for it when those two features matter enough to justify continuing beyond VIP 10.

VIP 15 is the point where PvP troop buffs begin, with 15% All Troops Defense. All Troops Attack follows at VIP 17. If PvP is your reason for chasing VIP, VIP 15 is the first level that pays off in combat.

Be realistic about the levels after that. VIP 17 needs 3,858,100 points and VIP 20 needs 23,148,200. Those levels belong to heavy-spending paths, not ordinary play. Free progress still counts, but it does not make those thresholds small.

How should I budget gems for VIP?

Start with active time, because a level without it gives you nothing. When buying 30 days, check the Black Market before paying the in-game store price. The difference matters each time you renew.

Then decide whether more VIP points deserve part of your spending. If the next milestone gives you a benefit you want, keep moving toward it. If it does not, holding your current level and funding active time may give you more value than chasing a number.

The same split helps when you manage routine account work. The Evony bot can gather, build, train and collect daily rewards on a Windows PC, which helps fund the gems you choose to spend. It does not raise your VIP level or buy VIP time. Botting breaks most games’ terms of service and no bot can promise you will not be banned, so read our bot safety guide first.

You can also check current Evony gift codes as part of your wider account routine. Keep that separate from the confirmed VIP-point routes when planning your next VIP level.

Is VIP worth chasing on my account?

VIP is worth chasing when the next milestone solves a need and you can keep VIP time active when that benefit matters. For a newer account, VIP 10 is the sensible target because it includes the earlier extra march slot and construction milestone, then adds research speed.

For a more developed account, the choice depends on focus. VIP 13 offers the further march preset slot and Black Market repurchase option. VIP 15 starts the PvP troop buffs. Those are different reasons to spend, so choose the milestone that matches your account instead of treating every higher level as urgent.

Pushing the level higher while leaving VIP time inactive is poor value. The points remain, so they are not lost, but none of the buffs run. If gems are tight, plan the cost of active time before spending more to reach another milestone.
