What Are Refugees?
Refugees are skilled workers that improve a specific building's efficiency. You recruit them at the Club with Refugee Tickets, then assign them via the Dispatch button or the Talent Hub. Promotions use Refugee Fragments to improve their bonuses.
Refugee Priority Tiers (Community Strategy)
- Tier 1: Diplomats
- Tier 2: Officer, Nurse, Scientist, Butler
- Tier 3: Rider / Assaulter / Shooter Instructors
- Tier 4: Metallurgist
This is a player-verified priority list based on long-term value (help cap, research, construction, and training speed).
Summon Strategy (Tickets + Refresh)
- Use 500 tickets to summon, then use the free refresh to roll new options
- 2000/5000 ticket pushes are usually reserved for top-tier refugees
- Some guides recommend spending diamonds for priority refugees; many community strategies avoid diamond spending unless you are chasing a top-tier roll
Costs scale from 500 to 2000 and 5000 tickets if you keep pushing the same pool. Choose your budget and stick to it.
Diplomats - The Best Refugees
Diplomats are assigned to the Alliance Center. They increase alliance help cap, and in-game lists also show help duration bonuses. This makes construction, research, and healing much faster through ally help.
Player example: 16 hours of help time can heal ~1,300 troops in a minute using alliance help.
Refugee Roles (Building Assignments)
- Diplomat: Alliance Center (alliance help cap)
- Officer: Military Center (unit cap)
- Scientist: Bookstore (research speed + free research speedup time)
- Butler: Villa (construction speed)
- Nurse: Hospital (healing speed)
- Assault/Rider/Shooter Instructor: camps (training speed)
- Metallurgist: Smelting Plant (Enhancement Alloy production)

When to Spend Tickets
The Alliance Duel Shelter Upgrade day includes recruiting refugees for points. If you can time your summons to that day, it boosts your score. However, if a top-tier refugee appears, many guides recommend taking it immediately.
