The game doesn’t explicitly tell you how many resources each beaver uses, and this knowledge might prove useful, especially during the Dry Season. So, here are the results of many experimentations done in the game, determining the exact amounts of food and water a single beaver uses.
How Much Water and Food a Beaver Uses in Timberborn
The amount of Food and Water used by every beaver depends on your difficulty setting. On hard and normal, a beaver consumes 2,4 food per day and 2 water per day. On easy, they consume 1,44 food and 1,2 water per day.
How Much Resources Do You Need Per Beaver
Now, let’s see what this means exactly. A water pump generates one unit of water every 7 seconds. A day in-game takes around 465s in real-time, meaning you’ll produce 44 units of water per day. So, one water pump should be able to supply 22 beavers every day.
Different Types of Food
Though technically, every type of food gives the same amount of sustenance for each beaver, there is a difference between how many food units you’ll get from each crop. Also, the type of food has a different grow time, so you need to think about whether you need more food or faster harvests. Here are how each type of food works:
Crop Growtime Yield Food per tile and day
Carrot 4 days 3 Units 0,75
Potato 6 days 1 Unit 0,67
Wheat 10 days 3 Units 1,5
Each farmhouse needs 2 workers and has enough space to grow 80 tiles of carrots, 120 tiles of potatoes or 200 tiles of wheat. In general, a farmhouse with 80 carrot tiles used and one water supply should be enough to supply 20 beavers.
The Frozen Throne was one of the RTS games I previously played, and I recall playing the campaign and going up against the undead only to discover that you actually sided with the undead in the end. Given the discussion of the undead, some of you may be familiar with necromancy in Spellforce. If you’re lacking the fourth ingredient and are unsure of how to obtain it, don’t worry—we’ve got you covered.
The 4th Ingredient Slot For Necromancy
It is important to note that you may complete all Necromancy concoctions, even Tier 3 units, with just the initial three ingredients. To make some of the more challenging undead, you will undoubtedly require higher quality ingredients.
However, if you have advanced in the game sufficiently to obtain the more valuable resources, you do not need the fourth ingredient.
Open your Grimoire to see the location of the fourth ingredient for necromancy. When you’re in the Grimoire, use the tabs at the bottom of the screen to go to the Necromancy page; the icon is a malevolent hand emerging from the ground.
There are a number of challenges there, and each one provides a prize. The first three tests concern spells. After successfully completing the first three tasks, you receive the Summon Necromancer Minions, Soul Cage, and Soul Catcher.
But the Soul Well, a unique room, can only be accessed by completing the final task. You will receive new prizes as you unlock this room and add it to your tower, such as weekly souls, an extra army stack space, and the option to utilize a fourth ingredient when summoning undead creatures using necromancy.
