Reference – How to calculate the total value

This can be calculated by using the Rally Spot values as a base and adding the other buff values.
(The % of buffs is applied to the rally spot value)

Example

• Rally Spot Lv25 : 100,000
• Research – Adv Cordinate +100% (=100,000)
• Monarch Gear – Lv4 +8,000
• Item – Junior March Size Increase +50% (=50,000)

Total value is
100,000 + 100,000 + 8,000 + 50,000 = 258,000
