Before Inno decided to break the various stats/rewards in the game, you had a lot less FP's available on a daily basis, so these GB's took a lot longer to level up.
But now, with these ridiculous rewards were elevated so much, you can quite literally in some cases, level up these GB's every day (with a properly function 1.9 group). So these GB's still have value, both as an unlimited source of additional combat stats, and as a dumping ground for the flood of FPs that we get now (some of the higher players have more FP's in a daily collection, then a lot of players previously had stored in 2/5/10 FP packs).
And even if you cannot level up a GB in a single day, you most likely only need 2-4 days to get another level - so the 5-6 weeks in between Events, you are quite literally able to get another 10-20 stats added - and these are the base stats, so they help everything (except QI)

Well, lets say i have a Zeus which has been levelled up to 160+ and in that level it provides 105% Att and Def boost. When you compare zeus with one of the event buildings, it is still nowhere near one of them
Still i insist on not removing these great buildings in the hope of a possible update
an official review by an inno personal would be amazing.
i also think like you have said.. With the Ages passing everything gets older and older but getting older shouldnt mean uselessness. Only reason why i have not removed these buildings from my city is that a possible update to these buildings in the future.

More dementia? PLEASE take your meds.
Although we have been getting this "soon" story about a GB update for over a year, so I guess SOME forgetfulness is understandable, it's becoming like the boy who cried wolf. If they keep promising but not delivering, eventually no one will believe them.
Now everyone has one place with all the articles about GB updates, not just Droppy, who so clearly needs to take better notes.
From April 2024:
ForgeOfEmpires/en_DK/3747/State-of-Forge-An-update-from-our-Product-Head
In addition to these features, we're focusing on improving the Great Buildings to ensure they remain competitive with Event Buildings. We won't overhaul the system entirely, but we are committed to making more buildings relevant.
From December 2024:
ForgeOfEmpires/en_DK/4350/Matt's-Community-Letter--End-of-Year-Edition
We’re also going to tackle some pressing issues. The most immediate focus is on Great Buildings. Starting in January or February, we’ll explore ways to make them more relevant in the game again.
From April 2025:
ForgeOfEmpires/en_DK/4811/Matt's-Community-letter--April-2025
I'd also like to address the Great Buildings, since I am aware this is a big topic. Our plan was to rebalance some of the Great Buildings so that we would have somewhere between 10 and 15 truly powerful buildings, however other topics came up in the meantime and instead we will work towards reworking the Great Buildings in general somewhere for release in Q3. This will be more than a quick rebalance, but rather adding in a new progression system for them, allowing for more boosts and a greater benefit to gameplay. This is likely the next priority topic after we finish with Guild Battlegrounds.

Q3 presumably meaning July, August, September. We'll see if they can stick to that promise.

Wow, another love letter. If you think I don't know when it was said, you have bigger problems then I. Still good to see I got you to do all this work.

thats it ! thanks inno... it could have been better if the priority was given to rebalancing these Great Buildings. Because thats a more urgent issue than the Guild Battlegrounds i think

So basically what it comes down to is that you never read the Announcements.
Ariana Erosaire
Lieutenant Colonel
You may read the announcements, but you act like you haven't, so what's the difference? You're actually worse than the people who come with questions because they missed an announcement, because you know better! and choose to mock or gaslight people anyway.
You could have just linked to the last announcement of when GB's may get updated, instead of unhelpful snark and sarcasm. But no, you were always better at pissing people off that providing anything helpful - and the "work" I did was but a few moments copy and paste. You're welcome.

looks like i did'nt need to answer you others did but ya all of the above
what i was saying is they dont look like they'r in any rush to do it
Droppy
Brigadier-General
So you do not like the way I answer. Does that give you the right to insult me? Who placed you above the forum rules and made you the conscience of this forum? If you want to moderate, why not apply?
Your copy & paste work clearly shows it was not just one announcement that was missed.
Did you produce that link from memory, or did you have to look it up, cause in that case he/she could have done the same.
So not holding your breath is the smart thing to do.

look who's talking how many times have you done the same thing
Droppy

I have never placed her above the forum rules.

no you placed your self above them by insulting ppl on this forum many times i wont go reserch all the posts where you insulted someone i'd need all day just to copy paste am not eaven talking of all the time it would take me to find em
