LCBC Builds In Depth Contents 1. Introduction 2. Builds 3. Finding Your Build 4. Changing Your Build 5. Acknowledgments Introduction My definition of LCBC is all 32 dorms are open, and you have all T5 (10B crew) at Level 4 in those 32 dorms. T5 consists of 3 different crew: Volleyball Captain - Strength Lab Geek - Intelligence Exchange Student - Equal Strength and Intelligence Now what T5 you put in your 32 dorms determine what your stats will be when you are LCBC. This is your build. There's a lot of builds to choose from so let's get started with this guide. Example: 19 Captains 13 Geeks <--- The crew you need to put in your dorm 843,572/644,300 <--- What your build will look like when you're LCBC. Note: In most builds you can have different crew than the ones listed and still get the same stats. However, I'll cover that later. Builds There are 65 different builds you can have depending on what you put in your dorms. Of the 65 different builds, there are are 3 different types of builds: 1 Even build 32 Strength heavy builds and 32 Intelligence heavy builds. Now each of these builds have different advantages. Even - With good tb can hit well and defend well in war on both sides. Strength heavy - Good for sfw and can pin people in war. Also better plunder when farming. Intelligence Heavy - Can be good in war to get plunder more easily, and good defense on dance. No build is "best". Just choose a build that appeals to you The even build is: 16 Captains and 16 Geeks or 32 Students 743,936/743,936 The 32 strength heavy builds: 32 Captains 1,275,328/212,544 31 Captains 1 Students 1,258,722/229,150 31 Captains 1 Geek 1,242,116/245,756 29 Captains 3 Students 1,225,510/262,362 30 Captains 2 Geeks 1,208,904/278,968 27 Captains 5 Students 1,192,298/296,574 29 Captains 3 Geeks 1,175,692/312,180 25 Captains 7 Students 1,159,086/328,786 28 Captains 4 Geeks 1,142,480/345,392 23 Captains 9 Students 1,125,874/361,998 27 Captains 5 Geeks 1,109,268/378,604 21 Captains 11 Students 1,092,662/395,210 26 Captains 6 Geeks 1,076,056/411,816 19 Captains 13 Students 1,059,450/428,422 25 Captains 7 Geeks 1,042,844/445,028 17 Captains 15 Students 1,026,238/461,634 24 Captains 8 Geeks 1,009,632/478,240 15 Captains 17 Students 993,026/494,846 23 Captains 9 Geeks 976,430/511,452 13 Captains 19 Students 959,814/528,058 22 Captains 10 Geeks 943,208/544,664 11 Captains 21 Students 926,602/561,270 21 Captains 11 Geeks 909,996/577,876 9 Captains 23 Students 893,390/594,482 20 Captains 12 Geeks 876,784/611,088 7 Captains 25 Students 860,178/627,694 19 Captains 13 Geeks 843,572/644,300 5 Captains 27 Students 826,966/660,906 18 Captains 14 Geeks 810,360/677,512 3 Captains 29 Students 793,754/691,118 17 Captains 15 Geeks 777,148/710,724 1 Captain 31 Students 760,542/727,330 The 32 intelligence heavy builds: 1 Geek 31 Students 727,330/760.542 15 Captains 17 Geeks 710.724/777,148 3 Geeks 29 Students 691,118/793,754 14 Captains 18 Geeks 677,512/810,360 5 Geeks 27 Students 660,906/826,966 13 Captains 19 Geeks 644,300/843,572 7 Geeks 25 Students 627,694/860,178 12 Captains 20 Geeks 611,088/876,784 9 Geeks 23 Students 594,482/893,390 11 Captains 21 Geeks 577,876/909,996 11 Geeks 21 Students 561,270/926,602 10 Captains 22 Geeks 544,664/943,208 13 Geeks 19 Students 528,058/959,814 9 Captains 23 Geeks 511,452/976,430 15 Geeks 17 Students 494,846/993,026 8 Geeks 24 Captains 478,240/1,009,632 17 Geeks 15 Students 461,634/1,026,238 7 Captains 25 Geeks 445,028/1,042,844 19 Geeks 13 Students 428,422/1,059,450 6 Captains 26 Geeks 411,816/1,076,056 21 Geeks 11 Students 395,210/1,092,662 5 Captains 27 Geeks 378,604/1,109,268 23 Geeks 9 Students 361,998/1,125,874 4 Captains 28 Geeks 345,392/1,142,480 25 Geeks 7 Students 328,786/1,159,086 3 Captains 29 Geeks 312,180/1,175,692 27 Geeks 5 Students 296,574/1,192,298 2 Captains 30 Geeks 278,9681,208,904 29 Geeks 3 Students 262,362/1,225,510 1 Captain 31 Geeks 245,756/1,242,116 31 Geeks 1 Student 229,150/1,258,722 32 Geeks 212,544/1,275,328 Alrighty. now that you've read all that, you might be wondering "What build do I have?" Well let's find out. Finding Your Build Now I'm going to show you how to find your build from the crew you have in your dorm. If you have all Captains, all Geeks, all Students, or Captains and Geeks in your dorm your can find your build on this guide, But what about builds with Captains and Students, Geeks and Students, or Captains, Geeks, and Students? The thing to remember is: 2 Students = 1 Captain and 1 Geek and vice versa. Because of that fact, there a lot of builds which will give you the exact same stats. Like my build for example: 6 Captains 26 Students = 843,572/644,300 is the same as 19 Captains and 13 Geeks. So, you can interpret a build with Captains and Students, Geeks and Students, or Captains, Geeks, and Students into a build which is listed on the guide. Even Builds Of course you can get an even build with either 32 Students or 16 Captains and 16 Geeks, 32 Students 743,936/743,936 16 Captains 16 Geeks 743,936/743,936 However, you can also have an even build with Captains, Geeks, and Students. You just have to make sure to have the same number of Captains and Geeks. 8 Captains 8 Geeks 16 Students 743,936/743,936 Strength and Intelligence Heavy Builds Let's say your dorm looks like this: 10 Captains 4 Geeks 18 Students Remember 2 Students = 1 Captain and 1 Geek So, the 18 Students = 9 Captains and 9 Geeks. Therefore, 10 Captains 4 Geeks 18 Students is the same as 19 Captains 13 Geeks which is 843,572/644,300. Here are some more dorms: 12 Captains 20 Students 20 Students = 10 Captains and 10 Geeks So, 12 Captains 20 Students = 22 Captains 10 Geeks = 943,208/544,664 20 Captains 4 Geeks 8 Students 8 Students = 4 Captains and 4 Geeks So, 20 Captains 4 Geek 4 Students = 24 Captains 8 Geeks = 1,009,632/478,240 6 Geeks 26 Students 26 Students = 13 Captains and 13 Geeks So, 6 Geeks 26 Students = 13 Captains 13 Geeks = 644,300/843,572 2 Captains 22 Geeks 8 Students 8 Students = 4 Captains and 4 Geeks So, 2 Captains 22 Geeks 8 Students = 6 Captains 26 Geeks = 411,816/1,076,056 If you haven't noticed, all the builds I have mentioned so far have an even number of Students. But what if you have an odd number of Students? Instead of turning the value of Students into Captains and Geeks, we are going to turn the value of Captains and Geeks into Students. Let's say your dorm looks like this: 16 Captains 5 Geeks 11 Students Remember 1 Captain and 1 Geek = 2 Students So, 5 Captains and 5 Geeks = 10 Students. Therefore, 16 Captains 5 Geeks 11 Students Is the same as 11 Captains 21 Students which is 926,602/561,270. Here are a couple more dorms: 16 Captains 5 Geeks 11 Students 5 Captains and 5 Geeks = 10 Students So, 16 Captains 5 Geeks 11 Students = 11 Captains 21 Students = 1,092,662/395,210 7 Captains 10 Geeks 15 Students 7 Captains and 7 Geeks = 14 Students So, 7 Captains 10 Geeks 15 Students = 3 Geeks 29 Students = 691,118/793,754 I hope this has helped you find your build no matter what crew you have in your dorm. Changing Your Build LCBC change their builds occasionally and do for so various reasons: To do better in war, i.e. They don't do well on fight so they want to go more strength heavy, or they are losing too many dances and want to go more intelligence heavy. Or if not for war just they like the look of a particular build or simply a change of pace. Whatever the case may be, you want to make sure you change to the build you want. So you don't have to spend an arm and a leg changing it again if you made a mistake. Note: All the individual stats of T5 are at Level 4. Volleyball Captain: 39,854/6,642 Lab Geek: 6,642/39,854 Exchange Student: 23,248 Swapping out crew: Captain with a Geek = -33,212/+33,212 Captain with a Student = -16,606/+16,606 Geek with a Captain = +33,212/-33,212 Geek with a Student = +16,606/-16,606 Student with a Captain = +16,606/-16,606 Student with a Geek = -16,606/+16,606 Now when you evict a T5 Lv4, you get 9.3B back. It costs 46.5B total to put in a new T5 and level it up to level 4. So, it actually only costs you 37.2B for each dorm mate you want to replace. Let's take 2 dorms: Both 743,936/743,936 However, Dorm A has 32 Students, and Dorm B has 16 Captains and 16 Geeks. Both want to change to 22 Captains 10 Geeks 943,208/544,664. For Dorm A, they must replace 12 Students with 12 Captains to get 943,208/544,664. At the cost of 446.4B. For Dorm B. they must replace 6 Geeks with 6 Captains to get 943,208/544,664. At the cost of 223.2B Notice that Dorm B only had to pay half as much as Dorm A did to achieve the same change. The reason for this is because Dorm A swapped out Students for Captains, while Dorm B swapped out Geeks for Captains. You get twice the shift in stats from switching a Geek with a Captain, than with a Student with a Captain. So if you are putting in T5 and think you might want to change build later, use mainly Captains and Geeks, and a few students, in case you only want to shift your stats a little bit.: Here's how to change your build: Find your build. Find the build you want to change to. Calculate yow many crew members you need to replace. Then swap out the appropriate dorm mates. My build is 6 Captains 26 Students 843,572/644,300 and hypothetically, I want to change to 22 Captains 10 Geeks 943,208/544,664 22 Captains and 10 Geeks, is equivalent to 12 Captains and 20 Students.. So, I would need to swap out 6 Students with 6 Captains, at the cost of 223.2B. Here are a few more samples of changing builds: 17 Captains 15 Geeks 777,148/710,724 to 22 Captains 10 Geeks 943,208/544,664 Swap out 5 Geeks for 5 Captains, at the cost of 186B. 15 Captains 17 Geeks 710.724/777,148 to 24 Captains 8 Geeks 1,009,632/478,240 Swap out 9 Geeks for 9 Captains, at the cost of 334.8B. 16 Captains 16 Geeks 743,936/743,936 to 5 Captains 27 Students (18 Captains 13 Geeks 1 Student) 826,966/660,906 Swap out 2 Geeks for 1 Captain, and 1 Geek for 1 Student, at the cost of 113.6B. You have to have the 1 Student for that build to work. I hope this guide will help if you want to change your build.
