Sanctuary level
Sanctuary 23
Mid Game · The Long Siege
Sanctuary 21–29
To upgrade your Sanctuary from level 22 to 23, you need Research Lab 22, Infirmary 22, Granary 10 and 270 Clinic stars. It costs 145M Grain, 145M Timber and 42.8M Herbs and takes 11d 6h 58m before any speed-ups. It raises your heroes’ level cap from 110 to 115.
What you need
To upgrade from Sanctuary 22 to 23.
- Research Lab 22 · my take: keep up with your Sanctuary
- Infirmary 22 · my take: keep up with your Sanctuary
- Granary 10 · my take: park for later
- 270 Clinic stars. Upgrade your Wards to earn them.
Those buildings have needs of their own. The Sanctuary build path plans every step from Sanctuary 22, on as many build queues as you have.

What it opens
Research (Research Lab 23)
- Hero: Hero ATK and Hero DEF
- Elite Troop: DEF Drill VIII, Attack Training VIII and Survival Training VIII
- Offensive Tactics: Training Grounds Expansion I, Training Specialization I, Extra Barracks, Bloody Battle II, Rapid Assault II and High Alert II
- Defensive Tactics: Fortifications, Burn the Boats II, Counterattack II and Defensive Stance II
- 94 more levels of research you already have
It also lets 30 of the buildings you already have go higher. From Sanctuary 7 on, a building can only be as high as your Sanctuary, which is why the Sanctuary sets the pace for everything.
Where it fits
Sanctuary 23 is part of the mid game (Sanctuary 21–29). Level up and contribute to your alliance. The hard part: upgrades stretch from days to weeks.
Next up, Sanctuary 24 asks for Research Lab 23, Walls 23 and Lumber Depot 10, and takes 15d 19h 21m. Getting those ready while this upgrade runs keeps your builders busy.
