'''Weekly Buffs''' are ongoing, Alliance-wide bonuses determined by the total gold within each Alliance’s [[Alliance Gold Coffer]].
These buffs apply for a full week and refresh automatically during the [[Weekly Reset]].

== Overview ==
* Weekly Buffs represent your Alliance’s economic strength.
* They scale directly with the Gold Coffer’s total balance.
* Buffs are permanent for the week and active for all Alliance members.
* Buff strength varies depending on the Alliance’s chosen '''Economic Policy''' from the previous week.

== Buff Categories ==
Each Alliance benefits from three primary Weekly Buffs:

{| class="wikitable"
! Buff Type !! Base Value !! Maximum Value !! Source Policy !! Description
|-
| '''Crafting Area Buff''' || 1% || 5% || Crafter’s Policy || Increases crafting skill gain rate in all Alliance crafting zones.
|-
| '''Merchant Stock Bonus''' || 5% || 25% || Merchant Policy || Improves vendor stock quantities and restock frequency in Alliance towns.
|-
| '''Dungeon Buff''' || 5% || 25% || Hunter’s Policy || Boosts Gold, Rare Loot, and XP drops in your Alliance’s weekly dungeons.
|}

== Economic Policy Ratio ==
The chosen '''Economic Policy''' determines how the Gold Coffer’s total is distributed between the three buff types.

{| class="wikitable"
! Economic Policy !! Crafting Area Buff !! Merchant Stock Bonus !! Dungeon Buff !! Notes
|-
| Crafter’s Policy || '''40%''' || 30% || 30% || Prioritizes skill gain and production efficiency.
|-
| Merchant Policy || 30% || '''40%''' || 30% || Focuses on trade, vendor restocks, and economic strength.
|-
| Hunter’s Policy || 30% || 30% || '''40%''' || Emphasizes dungeon exploration, loot, and PvE income.
|}

* The remaining 10% of each week’s Gold Coffer is transferred into the [[Silver Coffer]] to fund [[Militia Games]] and temporary buffs.

== Buff Scaling ==
Buff progression is determined by the Gold Coffer total at the time of the Weekly Reset.

{| class="wikitable"
! Gold Coffer Total !! Buff Strength (% of Max)
|-
| 0 – 25,000 || 25%
|-
| 25,001 – 50,000 || 50%
|-
| 50,001 – 100,000 || 75%
|-
| 100,001 – 200,000 (Overflow Limit) || 100%
|}

* Your Alliance’s **priority buff** (based on policy) grows 2x faster than the other two.
* When the Gold Coffer reaches 100,000 gold (50% of the overflow limit), the priority buff reaches full strength.

== Strategy ==
* Coordinate Economic Policy votes to align with your Alliance’s weekly goals.
* Donate gold or increase vendor activity to strengthen your Alliance’s coffers.
* Dungeon buffs rotate weekly — check the [[Weekly Dungeon Selection]] page for current assignments.

== Developer Notes ==
* Base and maximum values are subject to tuning during Beta 2.
* Buff scaling uses exponential smoothing to prevent sudden drops between weeks.
* Weekly Buffs and Temporary Buffs are balanced together to maintain consistent gameplay pacing.
