Lenses and magnifying glasses don`t only help our scientists to see clearly and find important papers on their desk, they are also necessary in order to invent all the new technologies that make us so proud. The optician keeps everything we need carefully stored in boxes, so less things get lost and the demand for crystal glass is decreased per building level.

[edit] Expansion Details

All reduction buildings add their deduction percentage to that given by the Pulley, Geometry and Spirit Level. This means the actual discount is and additional 1% per level of the building plus the reduction from the level of research you have completed. For example, a level 1 reduction building with Pulley has a net of 3% reduction, with Geometry there is a net of 7%, and with Spirit Level there is a net of 15%. With the maximum building reduction level (level 32, 32%) and Spirit Level (14%), the maximum reduction for that resource is 46%. This means you pay 54% of the original cost.

Note:

This building will reduce the cost of   to build the Temple and the Academy. Reductions also apply to improvements in the workshop, training of Doctor in the Barracks, training of Diving Boats in the Shipyard, and to training Spies in the Hideout should the respective buildings be in the same town as the Optician. You can also reduce the cost of Experiments done in the Academy up to 32% with this building.

The Optician does not affect cost of donating to the miracle on the island.

Please Note:

There are some researches which reduce the resources required for the construction of buildings. Pulley reduces the required amount of resources by 2% (2% total) Geometry reduces the required amount of resources by 4% (6% total) Spirit Level reduces the required amount of resources by 8% (14% total)

There are some buildings that reduce the resources demands. Architect's Office reduces the   requirements by up to 32% Carpenter reduces the   requirements by up to 32% Firework Test Area reduces the   requirements by up to 32% Optician reduces the   requirements by up to 32% Wine Press reduces the   requirements by up to 32%

There are some buildings that increase the production of resources. Alchemist's Tower increases the production of   by 2% for every level built. Forester's House increases the production of   by 2% for every level built. Glassblower increases the production of   by 2% for every level built. Stonemason increases the production of   by 2% for every level built. Winery increases the production of   by 2% for every level built.

Level 32 is the highest level possible for this building. No further upgrades are possible, because this is the building's true maximum level. [2]

Notes:

1. ↑ A Soft cap is the maximum level that is shown in the in-game Help (Ikipedia) section of Gameforge's games. However, structures can be built to higher levels than what is shown until you reach the Hard cap.
2. ↑ A Hard cap is the highest level possible for that building can be upgraded. No further upgrades are possible either because the upgrade button is missing, or the next level would exceed the max possible storage of the town's warehouses.
