Should Wonder the 5th Age be cheaper? For 1vs1?

Age of Mythology: Retold Discussion

Should Wonder the 5th Age be cheaper?

The effects of attaining this Age, and as long as the Wonder remains standing, are:

  • A trickle of 1 favor per second.
  • Rechargeable god powers cost -75% favor and their cooldown is reduced by -75%.
  • Myth units and Titans have +100% attack, +100% hit points, and +20% movement speed. It also makes myth units larger in appearance.
  • Heroes have +20% attack and +25% hit points.
  • The Titan Gate can be rebuilt. The Titan Gate god power can be recast after 10 in-game minutes since the last cast.

Due to the extremely high cost and time needed to construct a Wonder, it is not tenable in most 1 vs. 1 matches.

Cost 5000 Food/Wood/Gold Time 5,400 seconds

We had a pretty similar discussion by AoE4, but here it kind of is very useful upgrade, but too expensive to be valuable.

There is no countdown to victory., So why is it so expensive?

my suggestion would be for 1vs1 to go back for 1000 Food/Wood/Gold

You can create a race to wonder mod if you want. Whoever that build a wonder without dying will win

Yes I agree, it should cost a lot less in 1v1, the wonders make the game fun too, it’s a shame it’s almost impossible to build in that mode.

No. Wonder age is already a questionable design choice.

But we have titans who are way more cheaper and have way more impact,
in that comparison the wonder is over nerfed,
especially as it has no win timer.
