💡

Where the money is: the three final Lv.20 nodes (Recharge Shield II, Crippling Strike, Bulwark) are 507,060 badges each — a quarter of the whole tree. The six tier-II faction nodes are another 1.83M combined. If you’re pushing to the 80% needed for Leader’s Will, the cheapest route runs through the tier-I rows first; the last 20% of this tree costs more than the first 50%.

⚠️

This confirms the community warning: Leader’s Will is a rally-leader tree. Its unique effects (Team DMG/Health/DMG Reduction, Team-Up ATK/DEF, Urgent Rally) center on rallies and reinforced teams; the unit ATK/DEF and faction-hero nodes are real but expensive. The famous Urgent Rally −60s is the single most expensive node in either tree at 507,660 badges. F2P and non-rally-leaders: finish the six standard trees and Tactical Master first — this tree is for whales and warlords.

🧮

Weekly-income reality check: at ~9,960 badges/week from full Alliance Duel clears with maxed Alliance Recognition, Tactical Master alone is ~12 years of duel badges and both trees together ~23 years — badge events (Lucky Discounter, Frozen Rescue, season rewards) and spending are what actually move these trees.
