There are various ways to earn Prestige in Ara: History Untold, but there is one mechanic that is particularly important to increasing how much Prestige gamers are able to obtain from their feats. Golden Ages allow gamers to significantly increase their Prestige output for a limited number of turns.
This guide tells players what they need to know about obtaining Golden Ages in Ara: History Untold and what they should focus on in order to get as many Golden Age points as possible.
How a Golden Age Works in Ara: History Untold
Players will need to get as much Prestige as possible to win in Ara: History Untold. It is important to enter a Golden Age because, during these periods, Prestige generation increases by 25 percent. This means that if gamers were nearly done researching Philosophy, which would normally grant them 100 Prestige, but they entered a Golden Age right before completing the research, they would receive an additional 25 Prestige.
Golden Ages only last for 10 tens in Ara: History Untold, and gamers who want to take their city planning to the next level need to time their Triumph construction and more valuable research to coincide with this time so they can get as much Prestige from them as possible.
A good way to ensure players finish the construction of a Triumph during a Golden Age is by
rushing the city project
before the 10 turns come to an end.
