Age of Origins Officers Guide

Officers Overview in Age of Origins

Officers are the bread and butter in this game. They give stat bonuses that can basically be infinitely increased. Other things in the game max out, but not officers, so only spend on them if you plan on playing for the long term. Officer power also increases your rocket's damage in tower defense. Officers give boosts, but only when active. 

You need to change officers often, and before each “event” starts. Change to both building officers before you build, both recruiting officers before you recruit, etc. For gathering, you only need to change to your gathering officers before the fleet touches the mine, not before you send the fleet. After the “event” is started, you can then change your officers without losing the % boost. 

Officers get powerful by increasing the Star level and increasing the officer experience. Again, some things will max out, so don’t invest too heavily into these officers. I recommend not putting any officer experience into anything except for Loreline (because recruiting is awesome) and your war officers. If you want, you can put some into F. Medici to help your build times but I don’t recommend any other. 

You are going to put skills on your officers as well to help you get more boosts. Most skills are not needed, but don’t sell them in the exchange store unless you need the Z coins to buy a purple war officer fragment. It is better to craft the ‘gather food’ (or other useless skills) and then break it down for skill book experience. I also don’t put skills on my blue officers since you will get a better boost just switching back to your purple officers and using their boosts. For instance, change to Doc/Hacker to do research and then switch Hacker back to I Medici to get your gathering and processing boosts. The processing boost will (almost) always be better on I Medici than Hacker. Doc and I Medici will be your two war officers while battling because of their breakthrough skills, so I put load capacity on them to gather from enemies quicker. 

You can appoint up to 13 officers in the city depending on what level you are. There are 4 types of officers in Age of Origins which are Director, Strategy, Drill Master, and Warfare.

Director Officers boost city activities such as construction speed, research speed, etc.

Strategy Officers boost fleet size, training speed, etc.

Directory Officers and Warfare Officers can increase the attack, defense, HP of troops.

What are the Best Officers in Age of Origins?

The Best Officers in Age of Origins is very simple, all the Purple Officers. Save all the Purple Officers. Why do I say all the Purple are the Best Officers? What makes them the best is what you plan on using them for. Your Warfare Officers you'll need to change and even during an attack. You'll want to start with max fleet size and then when you set out to attack, you'll want to change that to make your hospital as big as you and a higher conversion to wounded instead of dead troops. That's what makes the Best Officer in Age of Origins!

Appointing Officers in Age of Origins

Appoint Officers at the Command Center -> Appoint (you can also do this in the Officer tab too but this is easier). The names and what they do will be confusing at first but you will learn fast. Pro Tip: you need to change your Appointed Officers for EVERYTHING you do whether it is recruiting troops, researching, building, or gathering.

Why do you Change Officers?

There are skills that boost the activity you are doing. You don't need to keep the Officer appointed the entire time, just when you start the activity.

For example: First thing in the morning you wake up, start the game (in bed), and collect your resources. You have timed this perfectly so that your last build and research has just completed. Great! Change your Director Officers to Doc Gray and Hacker for their research skill boost. Now start your next research. Now change your Director Officers to F. Medici and Ginger for their building boost. Now start your next build. Now change your Director Officers to I. Medici and Jesse for their gathering boost. Start gathering but please note the skills only start once the fleet has arrived at the tile. So do this for all activities and I think you get the idea.
