Sanctuary level
Sanctuary 7
Tutorial · The First Candle
Sanctuary 1–8
To upgrade your Sanctuary from level 6 to 7, you need Training Grounds 4, Alliance Hall 3 and 61 Clinic stars. It costs 236K Grain and 236K Timber and takes 1h 30m before any speed-ups. It raises your heroes’ level cap from 30 to 35. It also opens the Research Lab, the Arena, the Raven Nest, the Warrior Statue and the Temple.

Where it fits
Sanctuary 7 is part of the tutorial (Sanctuary 1–8). Your first hours behind the walls. Follow the quests, learn the buildings and claim every free reward.
Next up, Sanctuary 8 asks for Training Grounds 6 and Alliance Hall 5, and takes 3h 1m. Getting those ready while this upgrade runs keeps your builders busy.
