Strategy

Give Blood Daily:

• Free +2% defense buff for 20 rounds
• Always worth doing
• No downside

Loan Management:

• Borrow only if needed (no interest, but debt blocks transfers)
• Pay off before attempting transfers
• Loan limit scales with level (safe to use)

Transfers:

• Useful for helping clan members or alts (if allowed)
• Subject to daily limits (prevents abuse)
• Minimum transfer = your level (prevents spam)
