· T12 troops have been officially announced for Whiteout Survival and are expected to launch on April 27th.
· To unlock T12 troops, you must have reached Generation 10 and unlocked Helios. Once Helios is unlocked, a new page for T12 troop development will become available, along with new research.
· Cost and development details for all player types will be explained.

· A screenshot with approximate calculations for T12 troop development costs has been shared, noting that figures may vary slightly.
· The calculations are based on a weekly proportional system, where required quantities differ based on the number of upgrades (taps).
· A table has been created by "Ryan" to help understand these calculations.

· Super Refining requires 8650 crystals for 77 taps and 9200 crystals for 100 taps weekly.
· It's recommended to perform upgrades manually (one tap at a time) to increase the chance of better results, as higher numbers sometimes appear compared to auto-upgrading.
· Although the crystal cost might be the same for both methods, the odds of getting better rewards seem higher with manual upgrades.

· For Free-to-Play (F2P) or mid-spending players, it's advised to focus on unlocking the troops first before completing all research.
· It's assumed that a T12 troop at Crystal Level 9 should be stronger than a T11 troop at Crystal Level 10, similar to previous comparisons between different crystal levels.
· Players should assess their readiness in terms of research and stats before investing resources into T12 troops.

· Developing one T12 troop requires 300,439 duplicates and 316 Crystal Shards.
· To complete all research for one T12 troop, you'll need 11,371 Crystal Shards and 1,697 duplicates.
· These numbers are approximate and may vary. Multiply them by three for the total requirements for three T12 troops.

· To obtain 11,371 Crystal Shards, you'll need approximately 11,460 crystals (considering a previous calculation error).
· To get 306 Crystal Shards (for one troop), you need 2,920 crystals.
· Using 9,200 crystals (100 taps) yields an average of 277 duplicates.
· Using 6,000 crystals (80 taps) yields an average of 203 duplicates.
· Using 3,400 crystals (60 taps) yields an average of 135 duplicates.
· Using 1,400 crystals (40 taps) yields an average of 74 duplicates.
· Using 20 taps yields an average of 29 duplicates.

· A Super Player using 9,200 crystals (100 taps) might develop one troop in about two weeks.
· An average player using 6,000 crystals (80 taps) might need about 3.5 weeks to develop one troop.
· An F2P player using 1,400 crystals (40 taps) might need about 6 weeks to develop one troop.
· These estimates are based on average duplicate acquisition rates.

· It's recommended to focus on packs that offer good value, such as "Mix & Match" packs and weekly research packs.
· Snowfield King packs might offer crystals and speed-ups but are less valuable than "Mix & Match" packs.
· Avoid individual weekly packs that appear on the right side.
· Communicating with your player code can provide additional resources.

· Developing one troop using 100 taps (9,200 crystals) might take about two and a half weeks.
· Developing one troop using 80 taps (6,000 crystals) might take about 3.5 weeks.
· Developing one troop using 60 taps (3,400 crystals) might take about 5 weeks.
· Developing one troop using 40 taps (1,400 crystals) might take about 5.5 to 6 weeks.
· These calculations are personal estimates and may vary.

· To complete the research for three T12 troops using 100 taps, you'll need about 21 weeks (18-21 weeks).
· Using 80 taps, you'll need about 8 weeks for one research, meaning about 24 weeks for all three.
· Using 60 taps, you'll need 12 weeks for one research, or about 36 weeks for all three.
· Using 40 taps, you'll need 23 weeks for one research, or about 69 weeks for all three.
· Using 20 taps, you'll need 58 weeks for one research, or about 174 weeks for all three.
· Completing the research for all three troops might take around 4 months if you're using 100 taps daily.

· Fully developing one type of troop (including research) requires approximately half a billion resources (around 470-480 million).
· The total resource requirement for all three troops is about 1.5 billion resources.
· It's assumed that Generation 10 players have sufficient resources, but the bottleneck might be the training process itself, similar to what happened with T11 troops.

· Players can calculate their remaining resources and plan how to acquire the necessary amount.
· You can estimate the amount of resources you'll receive every 9 hours or every 24 hours based on your current production and pack purchases.
· This helps determine if you need to buy additional packs or wait to gather the required resources.
