Money Farming Guide: How to Farm War Funds

War Funds are used to upgrade and improve your army and units in Unicorn Overlord. Learn the best way to farm money in Unicorn Overlord, where to spend money, and tips on how to efficiently boost the money obtained from auxiliary battles!

Best Money Farming Method
(Early Game)

War Funds in the early game are extremely important to provide you with a good start on your quest to regain your rightful throne. This is the best way to farm money in the early stages of Unicorn Overlord:

1. Get the Golden Egg From the 'Escaped Chickens' Overworld Quest
2. Unlock and Keep Repeating Auxiliary Quests
3. Defeat The Units with Sword Icons

Complete Palevia's Escaped Chickens Overworld Quest

Completing this quest would reward you the Golden Egg accessory that enables equipping characters to earn +100% Gold after battles! The earlier you can get this accessory the better so you can have a passive way to earn double Gold from every battle.

Unlock and Keep Repeating Auxiliary Stages

Auxiliary Quests are repeatable battle stages that rewards the player with EXP and War Funds. The fact that it is repeatable means you can do this quest infinitely to farm EXP and War Funds.

To unlock Auxiliary Quests, complete Tatiana's quest called The Tormented Helm.

How to Maximize Money from Auxiliary Stages

• Auxiliary Quests limit your Unit count to 1. Make sure to know the best Unit formation for the Unit's leader to effectively farm Auxiliary Stages. We also suggest picking Alain as the leader as his Lord role is very flexible and strong.
• Include any Thief character in your singular Unit. Travis is the earliest Thief you can unlock so consider using him.
• Equip any character in your party with the Golden Egg so they would get +100% War Funds after a battle.
• Use your Thief's Plunder skill on the nearest enemy while in the overworld to get extra war funds.
• Using Plunder requires Valor Points so capture as much structures as possible across the map to regain Valor Points and maximize Plunder's usage.

Set The Difficulty to Story for Faster Farming

If you intend to just farm money by fighting enemies in Auxiliary quests, we recommend setting your game difficulty to Story. This is the easiest difficulty which makes sure you're defeating enemies the fastest way possible.

How to Change the Difficulty

Defeat The Units with Sword Icons Outside Forts

In almost all Forts, there are units with a sword icon on top of their heads. Always fight these units as they not only enable you to hire them for your army but also give 2000 Gold in reward for defeating them the first time. Sweet!

Where to Spend War Funds

There are multiple ways to spend your War Funds in Unicorn Overlord but we have compiled the best ways to spend your money.

• Purchase Equipment from the Secret Shop
• Buy and Upgrade Equipment from the Armorer
• Procure Items and Gifts from Provisioners

Purchase Valuable Items from the Secret Shop

The Black Market Dealer is a secret shop on the map that sells extremely valuable items and equipment that can drastically improve your overall performance in battles. We recommend prioritizing the wares being sold here as they tend to be better than those being sold by simple town Armorers.

How to Unlock the Secret Shop

Purchase Equipment and Upgrade Armor

Liberating a town controlled by the enemy gives you access to that town's Armorer. Make sure to check for wares or upgrade your equipment here.

We suggest upgrading your strongest unit first before everyone else to win battles easily.

Buy Items and Gifts From Provisioners

In addition to armorers, liberating a town also unlocks the provisioner of that place. Make sure to spend enough money on healing and battle items as well as gifts to increase rapport if you have surplus funds!
