Strongest Governor Event Guide: Daily Stages & Maximum Rewards
Quick Summary: Strongest Governor is a 7-day monthly event testing your overall account progression. Each day focuses on different activities: building, hero development, pet training, and combat. Earn points through normal gameplay, compete for kingdom and cross-kingdom rankings, and claim massive rewards including Mythic Hero Shards and Truegold.
Strongest Governor (formerly Hall of Governors) is Kingshot's premier progression event.

Point Values & Actions
Understanding what actions give the most points is critical for strategic play.
City Construction Stage (Day 1)
High-Value Actions:
- Use 1 Truegold for building upgrades: 2,000 points
- Complete research projects: Varies by tier and duration
- Upgrade Governor Gear Charms: 70 points per charm level
Strategy:
- Save Truegold specifically for this day (don't waste it earlier)
- Start long research projects the day before so they complete during this stage
- Focus on gear charm upgrades if you're low on Truegold
F2P Optimization: If you don't have Truegold, focus on:
- Completing multiple smaller building upgrades
- Advancing research you were already planning
- Crafting and upgrading Governor Gear
Reward Structure
Strongest Governor offers four separate reward tracks.
1. Daily Milestone Rewards
Earn Challenge Medals and immediate rewards as you hit point thresholds each day. These are accessible to all players and provide consistent value.
2. Kingdom Personal Ranking
Top 1,000 players in your home kingdom earn rewards based on rank:
- Mythic Hero Shards
- Truegold
- Resources and speedups
3. Cross-Kingdom Personal Ranking
Top 2,000 players across all participating kingdoms receive:
- Exclusive avatar frames (temporary)
- Exclusive nameplates (temporary)
- Mythic Hero Shards
- Truegold
- Premium resources
Cosmetic Rewards: Avatar frames and nameplates from cross-kingdom rankings are time-limited. They're prestigious but temporary status symbols.
4. Kingdom Rewards
If your kingdom finishes in the top 6 overall and you have at least 250,000 personal points, you receive additional kingdom ranking rewards.
This is a team effort—your individual performance helps the entire kingdom.
Optimal Strategy by Player Type
F2P Strategy: Milestone Focus
Goal: Hit all daily milestones without spending premium resources
Approach:
- Save Everything: Hoard resources, speedups, and materials throughout the month
- Plan Your Calendar: Know which actions to take on which days
- Daily Milestone Priority: Ignore rankings, focus on milestone rewards
- Natural Progression: Only do upgrades you were already planning
Day-by-Day Plan:
- Day 1: Use free Truegold, upgrade gear charms
- Day 2: Level up heroes with saved EXP books
- Day 3: Upgrade pet skills with saved materials (highest efficiency)
- Day 4: Train troops you need anyway
- Day 5: More pet/hero skill upgrades
- Day 6: Continue troop training
- Day 7: Use remaining hero materials
F2P Mindset: Daily milestones are worth thousands of gems in value. You don't need to compete for rankings to get excellent returns from this event.
Resource Planning Calendar
Weeks 1-2 (Event Running):
- Participate in event, use saved resources
- Note what you ran out of for next month
Week 3:
- Begin stockpiling hero EXP books
- Save all Truegold from daily tasks
- Don't spend Advanced Taming Marks
Week 4:
- Continue hoarding materials
- Complete any research that won't finish during next event
- Prepare troop training queues
- Max out speedup inventory from alliance shop
3 Days Before Event:
- Buy any last-minute materials from shops
- Coordinate with alliance for gift exchanges
- Queue research to complete during Day 1
- Stop all random hero/pet upgrades
Tips & Tricks
- Timing Research: Start multi-day research the day before the event so it completes during Day 1 (Construction).
- Speedup Strategy: Use speedups to complete actions right at daily reset for maximum efficiency.
- Alliance Shop Priority: Buy Advanced Taming Marks monthly—they're your best point-to-resource ratio.
- Hero Roulette Discipline: Only spin during Hero Development days. Never outside the event.
- Double Dip Days: On Days 3, 5, 6, and 7 (repeating stages), spread your resources across both days for better milestone coverage.
- Check Milestones: Sometimes hitting the next milestone is more valuable than pushing rank. Do the math.
- Kingdom Coordination: Share resource spending plans with your alliance to avoid wasteful competition within the same kingdom.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Don't Do This:
- Spending Hero Roulette tickets outside the event (wastes 8,000 points per spin)
- Using Advanced Taming Marks randomly (wastes 15,000 points each)
- Upgrading heroes on non-Hero Development days
- Burning all resources on Day 1 (you need them for the full week)
- Ignoring daily milestones to chase rankings (milestones are guaranteed value)
- Training troops outside Combat Training days if you can wait
- Forgetting to claim daily milestone rewards (they don't auto-collect)
Comparison to Hall of Governors
Improvements:
- More reward types (kingdom + cross-kingdom rankings)
- Better overall reward quality
- Clearer daily structure
- Additional milestone rewards
Core Mechanics:
- Same basic 7-day structure
- Similar daily rotation themes
- Point values mostly unchanged
Bottom Line: Strongest Governor is the upgraded version of Hall of Governors with better rewards and more competitive depth.
Is This Event Worth It?
For F2P: Excellent. Daily milestones alone provide massive value. Just plan your month around saving resources for the event week.
For Low Spenders: Outstanding. Moderate spending can secure kingdom top 500 rewards, which offer premium materials otherwise hard to obtain.
For Whales: Essential. Cross-kingdom rankings offer exclusive cosmetics and prestige. Skipping this event means falling behind in hero and gear progression.
Overall Rating: 9/10 - One of the best-designed events in Kingshot. Rewards smart planning over mindless spending, offers value at all spending levels, and aligns with natural progression.
Summary
Strongest Governor is a monthly test of your account's overall development. Success comes from resource discipline throughout the month, understanding daily point values, and knowing which actions to save for event days.
Key Takeaways:
- Save all major upgrades for event week (heroes, pets, buildings, research)
- Advanced Taming Marks give the most points per resource (15,000 each)
- Hero Roulette should only be used during Hero Development days (8,000 points per spin)
- Daily milestones are achievable for everyone and offer the best guaranteed value
- Focus on 2-3 specific days if you're resource-limited
- Plan your entire month around this event—hoarding resources pays off
- Kingdom rankings are more accessible than cross-kingdom for most players
Play smart, save your resources, and you'll walk away with rewards that accelerate your account progression for the entire month ahead.
