War and Order Castle Requirements From 35 to Sacred Castle III
What each War and Order Castle level requires from Castle 35 to Sacred Castle III, with total azurite and resources from level 30 worked out step by step.
Updated: November 2, 2026
The short answer
Taking a Castle from level 30 to Sacred Castle III (level 43), with every required building, comes to 1,589,320 azurite, 5.88B food, 7.84B wood, 2.17B stone and 1.18B iron. Castle 40 is 681,470 azurite on the same path, so the last three levels cost more than the ten before them.
The Castle itself is only 563,410 of that azurite. The rest goes on the buildings it demands, and that is where most planning mistakes happen. All figures here start with buildings at level 30 and come from the same data and logic as the WaoHive Planner.
What each Castle level asks for
From Castle 32 on, every level needs the Wall one level below the Castle, plus another building that rotates through Drill Grounds, Depot, Embassy, Hospital and College. The Sacred levels also add Sacred Tier. The step column adds the Castle to whatever is still missing, assuming you finished the earlier steps.
| Castle | Requires | Castle azurite | Step azurite |
|---|---|---|---|
| Castle 35 | Wall 34, Hospital 34 | 41,770 | 67,990 |
| Castle 36 | Wall 35, Drill Grounds 35 | 42,000 | 96,320 |
| Castle 37 | Wall 36, Depot 36 | 44,750 | 81,540 |
| Castle 38 | Wall 37, Embassy 37 | 48,770 | 91,210 |
| Castle 39 | Wall 38, College 38 | 52,220 | 127,530 |
| Castle 40 | Wall 39, Hospital 39 | 54,610 | 137,000 |
| Sacred Castle I (41) | Wall 40, Embassy 40, Sacred Tier I | 65,000 | 186,790 |
| Sacred Castle II (42) | Wall 41, Depot 41, Sacred Tier II | 73,000 | 247,650 |
| Sacred Castle III (43) | Wall 42, Barracks 42, Hospital 42, Sacred Tier III | 82,000 | 373,000 |
Reading the table
The rotating building is why the steps are so uneven. Castle 39 costs 127,530 because College is first required there, and at level 38. With College still at 30, that one step includes eight upgrades worth 55,230 azurite. Raising it earlier does not reduce the total, but it spreads the cost out.
The Sacred Castle III row assumes Barracks is already at 40, and adds Barracks 41 and 42 for 70,760 azurite. Barracks is not named in the step list before that point. If it were still at 30, the step would be another 100,410 azurite higher. Most players will have upgraded it long before for troop tiers, and the Planner's minimum requirements mode keeps it at 34 from Castle 35, 37 from Castle 38 and 40 from Castle 41. That last floor has not been confirmed.
Running totals from level 30
These totals assume you start with every listed building at 30. Barracks only enters at Sacred Castle III, which is why that row jumps.
| Target | Azurite | Food | Wood | Stone | Iron |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Castle 35 | 147,870 | 1.46B | 2.07B | 497.0M | 259.5M |
| Castle 38 | 416,940 | 2.63B | 4.36B | 1.09B | 580.6M |
| Castle 40 | 681,470 | 3.87B | 6.19B | 1.65B | 891.9M |
| Sacred Castle I (41) | 868,260 | 4.15B | 6.79B | 1.82B | 980.0M |
| Sacred Castle II (42) | 1,115,910 | 4.49B | 7.29B | 1.94B | 1.04B |
| Sacred Castle III (43) | 1,589,320 | 5.88B | 7.84B | 2.17B | 1.18B |
Where the azurite goes
Here is the full 1,589,320 split by building. Sacred Tier deserves attention because it appears so late: its three levels cost 72,000, 88,000 and 108,000, more in total than Wall, Barracks or Hospital. It is only available from Castle 40, so it cannot be spread over earlier levels.
| Building | Azurite | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Castle to 43 | 563,410 | 35.4% |
| Sacred Tier I to III | 268,000 | 16.9% |
| Wall to 42 | 225,990 | 14.2% |
| Barracks to 42 | 171,170 | 10.8% |
| Hospital to 42 | 143,460 | 9.0% |
| Depot to 41 | 69,270 | 4.4% |
| College to 38 | 55,230 | 3.5% |
| Embassy to 40 | 53,850 | 3.4% |
| Drill Grounds to 35 | 38,940 | 2.5% |
The final stretch is about azurite
Resources matter less at the very top. The data lists Sacred Castle III, all three Sacred Tier levels and Sacred Barrack I to III as azurite only, with no food, wood, stone or iron. From a fully built Castle 40, with every listed building at 40 and Barracks included, the Planner counts 710,200 azurite for Sacred Castle III. If your other buildings are only at their minimums, with Barracks at 40, the same climb is 807,440. It helps to know which case is yours before you estimate a date.
What is not counted, and where the data disagrees
Some values could not be confirmed in the game, so check these before you commit azurite:
- Guardian Temple is not in these totals, because the data does not make it a Castle requirement. Levels 6 to 9 for Angels add 95,000 azurite.
- The Castle 42 step asks for Depot 41, but the Castle 42 upgrade record says Depot 40. We use the higher value, which adds 14,850 azurite.
- Hospital 40 is not in any step, but the Castle 43 record asks for it. It is included, at 15,340 azurite.
- The Castle 43 record also has two odd entries, Barracks 34 and Castle 2, which look like data errors and do not change the totals.
- Wall 43 can be selected in the Planner, but the data has no cost for it.
Work it out for your own Castle
Enter your building levels on the Planner's Castle tab, and it lists what is missing for each milestone, counting only the levels you have not done. Sacred Castle milestones appear from Castle 40. To see one building's cost across a range, use Buildings, which can send the azurite total to the Azurite Calculator for a finish date.
