IMO the best class to start with in a free game (or the last campaign) are archeology students. In their first year they just need a lecture room and a digging site. And the latter one will reveal goodies to sell or increase the prestige of your campus. The number of goodies revealed depends on the size of the digging site. So, the more space you locate to the digging site the more goodies you will get throughout the year. The value ranges from a couple hundred coins to 40-50k depending on the item. If you don't sell those items they may also increase in value over time (at least those that beauty up your campus, the others will decay over time and decrease in value). If you lay out plenty of your campus for a digging site you can literally earn millions in the first year (i.e. the last campaign). Afterwards you can decide if you go on with archeology or make a switch to other classes

Money Wangling occasionally gives a homework assignment that requires a prince or princess dummy. Unfortunately, these need to be placed inside a battle ground, which could be inconvenient if you're not also running knight school. (If you place an etiquette station in a battle ground, money wangling students can also use that for their homework instead of the individual dummies.)

With TPU, I find it's much better to start with Archaeology and then transition to Robotics from Year 2. Archaeology gives you a HUGE money boost in year 1 (around $3,000,000 if you do it right) and those students will continue to fund your campus in years 2 and 3. Sadly, the money you get from selling relics doesn't count as profit, so ultimately it's best to stop accepting Archaeology students from year 2. Robotics has relatively high tuition fees and is only a medium difficulty course, so the profit requirement should be easy to meet with it. It shouldn't be too difficult to get them to Grade A/A+ either. As for hitting campus level 35, there's a few ways to do it and you can combine them. Hire more staff, train the staff you have and build lots of small rooms with high prestige. For the small room/high prestige option, I've designed a 3x5 Student Lounge that costs a touch over $13k and has 13 prestige. The advantage of building rooms over hiring/training staff is that rooms won't reduce your profit the way staff wages will, but if you've already reached the profit goal there's absolutely no reason not to use the staffing approach as well.

I also like Archaeology for the synergy that it provides with the other courses. Since it requires the Science Lab and Computer Lab, you can run it along with other classes. In addition to Money Wangling, for tuition income, there's Scientography and Musicality, which is also great for student buffs. For buffs, there is also Funny Business. It's likely more optimized to keep everything self contained with the classrooms so that classrooms and staffing are optimized, not to mention on only needing some of the objects per room for assignments. My strategy is moreso for when you don't have enough course points to get to level 3 yet but want or need to run other classes as well. With that being the case, if everything is self contained, synergy wouldn't be a factor, but there may be something to be said for the flexibility of classrooms and lecture halls being able to be used with multiple courses. To me, the tradeoff seems to be between having the students integrated or segregated. Unless you have a super mega campus building with tons of everything in one building, designating rooms by course would seem to lend itself to doing the same with the dorms. Having a bunch of Poshos or Archaeologists in their own wing deprives them of the buffs from other types of students.

As for my picks, in addition to Archaeology, I would prefer classes that use rooms that are common to many courses, such as the Science Lab and Computer Lab. If course, if everything is always eventually self contained, that's less relevant, but it makes sense to me to go that direction first. Stuff like Spy School and Knight School is cool, but extremely specialized. That being said, I already got all of the stars in the game, so if people are having trouble with specific courses, by all means, it would be helpful to prioritize them. Perhaps some polls in the Community tab would be helpful.

There are some classes which I call 'sister classes' that not only fail to fully utilize the rooms they require, but the amount they leave open fits snugly in with a 2nd class that only uses that common room by the missing amount. Thus, taking the two classes together makes the two of them self-contained, even though a room or two is shared between them. I'll point the pairings out when I cover those classes.

@@Pinstar fantastic. I only had one request for things in the Battlefield that I can remember, but it's definitely a thing. Of course, if you do Money Wangling to make money, and you have enough outside space to run Knight School well, you'll likely be better off running Archaeology instead. It's not ideal to run more than one course that requires outside rooms at the same time in my opinion. Not to mention, you can build a Battlefield without running Knight School just for the Money Wangling homework if you want. Maybe inefficient, but it's an option nevertheless.

One last question before I leave you alone. Would you recommend always saving up course points to level every course up to at least 3, one at a time, before moving on, as well as keeping every class size at 16 for all course types? What about using marketing to get to 16, or even 32, without necessarily leveling up the course itself if you can't afford to?
@Pinstar
2 жыл бұрын
I would save up course points to buy up to at LEAST level 2. A level 2 course gives you 15 natural applicants. Lowering the tuition by just one notch will give you a 16th applicant. That's good enough to get started, you can always bump it to level 3 later and adjust the tuition next year. 16 is the magic number for most classes, and any class who has an ideal incoming class size of 16 also has 32 as an ideal if you want to go big with it. There ARE some classes that work best with a different number, and I'll point them out as I cover them in the deep dives.

One of the tabs on the course info will list the items possibly needed for an assignment. Just because an item is *possibly* needed doesn't mean you need to have it immediately upon starting the course. 95% of assignments early on involve common items in the library. The other interesting pair of items for Money Wangling is the lord and lady dummies, found in the Knight school. However, those items can only be built in knight school classrooms. That said, I never saw a request for either of those items when I didn't have Knight school, so it doesn't look like the game is going to force you to include knight school if you go Money Wangling, but if you do, there are two more objects that could be useful to your Posho students.

@Pinstar
2 жыл бұрын
The number of applicants you have will determine the number of incoming students in each class, each year. It is also a resource you tinker with for other benefits. If you reduce the number of applicants you accept, compared to the applicant pool, your base learning rate in that subject increases. You can also adjust the tuition fees that will either generate more applicants (if you reduce them) or reduce the number of applicants (if you increase them). Increasing your subject level will change the base number of applicants. Starting with 10 at level 1 and going up by 5 for each level after. Basically, the more renowned your college is for a certain subject, the more people will naturally want to apply. Lastly marking will artificially increase the number of applicants in a single year. This larger pool of applicants allows you to either take in more students (if you accept them) or boost your base learning rate by denying more of them, or charge a much higher tuition and still have enough applicants to meet your desired class size. I have a video planned on this topic, but these are the basics :)

The same rule applies. The 2nd and 3rd computer have lower, but still worthwhile learning speed buffs but anything beyond 3 is so heavily penalized it isn't worth it. However, that diminishing returns only applies to the same object type. So you could build 3 super computers and 3 super servers and 3 super consoles and get a healthy learning bonus from all of them. Of course, that would be crazy-expensive and only recommended once you hit the stage of your campus where you have more money than you know what to do with.

So Money Wangling is the best "traditional" method to enhance your finances early game. It also has the advantage of being a base 20 class rather than base 30, and it is self contained unlike Archeology which spills into several different rooms.
