Resource is a common name for all basic and magical resources. Basic resources include wood, ore and gold; while magic resources include mercury, sulfur, crystal and gems. Wood and ore are required to build town structures, along with gold. Wood is also needed to build boats. Several town structures require magical resources for construction, and they are also needed for to hire some of the 7th level creatures. Gold is basically needed for everything from hiring heroes and troops to constructing buildings and ships. Also some Adventure Map locations (e.g. School of War) require gold in exchange for their services. Exceptionally, Tree of Knowledge may need 10 gems to give on experience level.

Resources may be acquired in many ways, but perhaps the most typical means are flagging mines, which provide a steady income, or gathering resource piles from the Adventure Map. Additional resources may be acquired from Adventure Map locations such as Windmills, Mystical Gardens or creature banks. Typically it is possible to construct Resource Silos in towns, which will produce extra resources depending on the town they are built. Additionally, Rampart's Mystic Pond will proudece additonal weekly income. Freelancer's Guild and Artifact merchants may exchage creatures or artifacts for gold and/or resources. Additionally, resources can be given/received from other players through Marketplace.
