Someone can explain WhyTF would I take the item "Papers of Nobility"??
Because why would I want to put my taxes Higher and it is already costing me a sh*t tons of money to send it to town... this item is really stupid or I am the stupid one and not understand how Taxes work in this game? :maple2:

With a level 3 treasury your tax midpoint is 20K meaning that if you has 20K gold in your city the tax would exactly be 50% , the papers of nobility increase the tax midpoint by 25% , so with a level 3 treasury your tax midpoint would be at 25K instead of 20K meaning that you could collect 5K more treasure before the tax rate reaches 50%

More/higher tax midpoint means you can collect more gold before it reaches the point where you'd need to tax 50%+

If you has problems with tax cause lot of stored gold try using the 'Offshore accounts' fountain effects as it multiplies the tax midpoint by four, meaning that with a level 3 treasury you'd reach 50% tax rate at 80K gold instead of at 20K.

It increases the tax mid point, not the amount taxed. It's a nice little boost you will bring home more money if you have the item.

You can read the details about tax midpoints here: http://wiki.heroesofhammerwatch.com/Money

And the fountain is useless

It means you take home more money. It's a good item. Now stop whining and either play the game or refund it. No point spamming the board with this stuff.

Seriously OP, it has been told to you what it does but here's the 101 version for dummies for you, it doesn't make you pay more in tax, higher midpoint for tax = you can get more money before you are taxed with 50%.

It's not rocket science, also the fountain is amazing if you know what to take.

Also, 40 hours and you still have not cleared the forsaken tower even once, not surprising.

I honestly wonder if he is trolling like, it was explained to him before, We clearly explained the same thing (It was clearly written what is tax midpoint in the middle of my reply yet he just cried about 'wtf is midpoint' while other replies answered that to him as well, so I'm nearly certain he is either just trolling , doesn't even bother reading replies or fail to understand basic English terminology)

Gonna lock this, it's getting weird.

As far as I can see the question has been answered, and there is a link to the wiki for further reading

There's also a tax calculator located here:
https://themadsword.github.io/hoh-taxcalc.html

Where you can put in numbers and various factors to see the tax amount.
