Whiteout Survival Gem Spending Guide

💸 Gem Spending Priorities (Top to Bottom)

Here’s a Gem Spending Guide for Whiteout Survival that focuses on getting the most long-term value out of every gem you spend — whether you’re a low spender, free-to-play, or just want to avoid wasting currency.

Gem Spending Golden Rule

Spend gems on things that permanently improve your strength or efficiency, not short-term conveniences.
Instant speed-ups, one-time resources, or vanity items usually give poor long-term returns unless they help you secure a major event prize.

1️⃣ Second Builder (Must-Have)

• Cost: 1,000 gems every 2 days

• Why: Speeds up base development and building upgrades dramatically. Essential for early growth.

2️⃣ Lucky Wheel (For ZinMan)

• Best way to acquire ZinMan if you want him.

3️⃣ VIP Upgrades (Depending on Spending Level)

VIP 4 – Ideal for non-spenders:

• +10% Construction Speed

• 1× Epic General Hero Shard daily

VIP 6 – Best for low to mid spenders:

• +1 March Queue

• 2× Epic General Hero Shards daily

• 2× Epic Exploration Manuals daily

• 2× Epic Expedition Instructionals daily

VIP 7 – For big spenders:

• +14% Resource Production Speed

• +600k Storehouse Capacity

• 1× Epic General Hero Shard daily

4️⃣ VIP Shop (Use Sparingly)

• OK for urgent needs, but avoid overspending.

5️⃣ Gem Shop (Rarely Worth It)

• Generally skip — except for essentials like Loyalty or a Server Megaphone in special cases.
