Crash Course WarEra: The Complete Basics

DinguApril 17, 2026guide

For people who just joined

I've realized that many people who join the game quit without fully diving into the game just becuase of how confusing it looks. I myself am guilty of this as after I first joined, it took some convincing from a friend to start playing again. I may not understand all the mechanics myself but this is just to help completely new people to understand somthing about the game as I beleive the tutorial doesn't do justice.

Here I will point out all the basics and fundamentals of the game from a newbie's view and how to navigate your first few days of this amazing game after joining and joining a country.


The map

The map is where the politics takes place. The battles and territory are all displayed on it.


Leveling up

The only way to gain xp and level up in WarEra is to complete your missions.

Each day your daily missions will reset. 10 new missions every day. These missions are personalized according to how you allocate your skill points (more about them later). After a certain amout of missions are completed you will get bonus xp as well as a loot case. The same goes for weekly missions but as the name suggests, they refresh weekly. If you cannot complete your mission, you can reroll them First time is free. After, you pay with coins.

You will also see you have a set of missions as 'Starting'. These are for you, new guys to level up quickly.

Each time you level up, you will get 4 skill points which you can use to upgrade your stats.

I've noticed some struggle to figure out how to complete certain tasks at first so I will go over them.

  1. Helping MU (Military Unit) members

    For this you must join a Military Unit if you havent already. You will find this if you scroll your profile page. After you join, you will see people asking for help in your MU. Just press 'HELP.' Just wait for someone to ask for help if someone hasn't already.

  2. Donating to MU/Country.

    For this you must go to your country's page and press on the 3 dots next to the discord button (note: it is recommened that you join your country's discord server) and there you shall find the donate page. Just donate the amout your mission requires you to do.

  3. Most others should be pretty self-explanatory.


Skill Points and Builds

Just like many other games, warera has a skill point system. Each time you level up, you will get 4 skill points. It is recommended for new players to focus on the economy section.

Below is a skills guide. Shoutout to AntichristJesus for sharing this guide. https://res.cloudinary.com/dagoa5pid/image/upload/v1775116826/Gemini_Generated_Image_1hl69j1hl69j1hl6_uumuj2.png


Companies

Another major part of the game is Company Management. Companies are crucial for development.
It may be confusing at first what it means by limestone being used to produce Concrete. This means you need limestone as a raw material to make concrete in concrete companies. I see a lot of people trying to figure out how to turn limestone into Concrete.

Here is a starter guide to starting companies. Once again shared by AntichristJesus.

1) Start with Concrete (buy Limestone in Market to produce the Concrete).

2) Create Limestone company (to not buy from Market).

3) Create Steel company (buy Iron in Market to produce the Steel) to *upgrade Automated Engine of your factories.

4) Create Iron company (to not buy from Market).

• Upgrade until level 4 before creating another company.


This took me quite a while to make but I felt like it had to be done. To experienced players, this migh sound dumb but these are pretty common questions I get asked from my friends who I refered to the game.

Feel free to let me know what I should improve on and what I should add for part 2.
