In Whiteout Survival, donating resources is crucial for supporting your alliance and fellow members, contributing to collective growth and strategic advantage. There are several primary methods for donating resources, each serving a distinct purpose within the game's alliance system.
Direct Resource Transfers to Alliance Members
This method allows you to send specific resources directly from your inventory to another player within your alliance. This is commonly used for mutual aid, helping members with resource shortages, or assisting new players.
- Via the World Map:
- Locate the alliance member's Castle on the world map.
- Tap on their Castle to bring up their profile and action options.
- Select the "Send Resources" option.
- Choose the specific resource type and the quantity you wish to send, then confirm the transfer.
- Via Your Storehouse or Resource Building:
- Navigate to your Storehouse or the relevant resource management building within your settlement.
- Look for an option to "Send Resources" or "Trade" with alliance members.
- Follow the in-game prompts to select the recipient, resource type, and desired amount for the transfer.
Important Considerations for Direct Transfers:
- Resource Tax: Direct transfers often incur a tax, meaning the recipient will receive a slightly reduced amount of the resources you sent.
- Daily Limits: There may be daily limits on the total amount or number of transfers you can make.
- Alliance Level Requirements: Certain features or larger transfer capacities might require your alliance to reach a specific level.
Contributing to Alliance Projects
Beyond direct player-to-player transfers, a significant portion of resource donation in Whiteout Survival occurs through contributions to alliance-wide initiatives. These collective efforts benefit the entire alliance by strengthening its capabilities and expanding its influence.
Alliance Technology Donations
Alliance Technology provides powerful buffs and advantages to all alliance members. Contributing resources here is a key way to help your alliance thrive.
- Accessing Alliance Technology:
- Open your Alliance menu.
- Navigate to the "Technology" or "Research" section.
- Donating:
- You can typically donate standard resources like Food, Wood, Iron, and Coal to specific research projects.
- Alternatively, you might use special Alliance Donation items to provide a larger boost.
- Benefits: Donating to Alliance Technology earns you Alliance Contribution points, which can be redeemed for valuable items in the Alliance Store. More importantly, it helps unlock crucial research buffs that benefit every member of your alliance.
Alliance Construction Donations
Alliance construction involves building and upgrading shared structures on the world map, such as resource nodes, defense towers, and alliance fortresses.
- Accessing Alliance Construction:
- Within the Alliance menu, find the "Buildings" or "Construction" tab.
- Donating:
- When the alliance is engaged in building or upgrading structures, you'll see requests for specific resources.
- Contribute the required resources to help complete these projects.
- Benefits: These contributions are vital for expanding and securing your alliance's territory and defenses. Like technology donations, they also grant you Alliance Contribution points.
Other Ways to Support Your Alliance with Resources
While not always direct "donations," these activities indirectly contribute resources or resource-generating capacity to your alliance's overall strength:
- Alliance Events: Participate in various alliance events and challenges that often require collective resource contributions or specific actions that consume resources for shared rewards.
- Alliance Quests/Daily Tasks: Completing daily alliance quests often involves resource production or collection. While these resources go to your base, your active participation boosts the alliance's overall activity score and earns collective rewards.
- Resource Node Protection: Actively clearing and holding high-level resource nodes not only provides resources for your own base but also helps secure valuable territory and resource access for your alliance members.
