Best way to spend contribution points

[GewoonRobbie]

I have 80 points available right now, what is the best way to spend it all and earn the most from it?

[Unholy burden of Eternity]

I would invest CP in housing. Storage for more warehouse storage, workshops if you're going to hire workers as well with lodging for your workers to stay and a place to call home.

I think I start in Velias. get Lodging, and Potatoe farms running. Can turn Potatoes into beer to feed your worker empire or sell for money, and level cooking at the same time

Build up your worker empire. Its passwive income. Or if you plane on working on life skills its materials to do that with. I would recomend pickking up all the potatoe nodes arround Velia though as these can be used for beer to then feed your workers.

Anything else other than just the potato farms?
Got 80 points, I can do quite much I think

it starts to cost quite a lot to link everything together, you have to invest in the node and then into the actual sub-node resource. each worker requires 1 cp, multiple workers require more lodging which also costs cp.

a true worker empire you'll need over 200 cp most likely. you can power level cooking by making beers though and beers keep your workers working so its a self sustaining cycle.

you only need 5 potatoes/wheat/corn or barley to make beer, the other 3 ingredients you get from a vendor.

i use this beer calculator to tell me how many sugar/leavening agent/mineral water ill need depending on how many of a plant i'm using. if you have 2000 potatoes it'll tell you how much stuff you need to buy from the vendor and how many ovens it'll consume.

it might be wise to invest in a tool workshop preferably one that goes to level 3 so you can craft your own advanced cooking and alchemy tables because the base ones burn out after 100 crafts, whereas the advanced ones can do like 900.

Ill do that till I reach 200 then
