Vikings WOC - Boosts

When applying boosts generally they are applied before the action starts and run for duration of the action. My understanding is that if you send to POP or to Reinforce, and you have applied offensive and defensive boosters, when the troops arrive they will have those boosts, and they will remain in effect until the troops return to the town.


When sending to an Onslaught, this is a two step operation. You send to Os to fill and then the host sends. If I boost a 10 min 45% offensive booster and send troops to the Os, does the boost last until after the host sends them?

Or must I send to OS and wait to boost before the host sends the Os - this doesn't seem correct since the hero and troops have already left my castle? 


Or if I send to an Os do I have to boost long enough to ensure the boosts are in effect until the Os is filled and started?

A very interesting question of your buddy. I had to try it and then ans it as i didnt know ans of it.


When you send your troops to host's castle/town they must be boosted. This boost system exactly works like POP & reinforcements. When you send a boosted march and your boosts expire but your troops are not home then they will have benefits of boosts regardless of host sending os or not. I tried with all 10min boosters and asked my host partner to send march after 15min so my town boosts get expired. After march completed we saw results and yes my boosts were active in the result.


And again boosts of host have to be active until he send os because his/her troops are in town and they need boosts until they leave his town. But once your troops reach their destination boosts stay in effect until they return.

Hope i answered your question correctly.

Very interesting. I didn’t realise boosts were still active until your troops returned home. Always thought they expired when the timer did

There is something wrong in the response.  The only boosts you keep are Resource boosts.  They must be active before launch.  All other combat boosts Expire when they run out.  We have tested this many times.  But, you can activate combat boosts with troops already deployed.  So, Combat boosts are real time.  Doesn't matter where troops are. So, if your troops are in POP, and you get hit with your reducers expired, it will hurt. Resource yielding boosts must be activated before deployment but will last the whole time troops are out. IF you activate a Resource yielding boosts while troops are out it is worthless.
