Help! How many souls does it cost to upgrade Ultra-rare/Epic/Legendary troops from level 19 to 20? ---

It takes 800 souls to upgrade an Ultra Rare from 19 to 20. I’m not sure it would be the same for other classes tho. ---

Thanks Macawi, I have for Level 19 to 20: Hero = 500 Common = 600 Rare = 700 Ultra-rare = 800 Epic = ??? Legendary = ??? ---

So maybe Epic is 900 and Legendary 1000 according to the cost of the prior four. ---

> [@DemonicDraco](#): > > anyone know the total cost of goin from 15 to 20? I echo @DemonicDraco’s sentiment. I would also like to know the amounts for 16-20 for all the rarities. This site hasn’t been updated in a long time. ---

> [@DemonicDraco](#): > > anyone know the total cost of goin from 15 to 20? Looking at my troops a common troop at level 16 takes 1,760 souls to upgrade to 20,a rare at level 16 takes 2,050. That’s a difference of 290. If this formula is correct then from levels 16-20 it would require: - Common - 1,760 - Rare - 2,050 - Ultra Rare - 2,340 - Epic - 2,630 - Legendary - 2,920 ---

I starting filling out a table on the Wiki: [Troop Leveling | Gems of War Wikia | Fandom](http://gems-of-war.wikia.com/wiki/Troop_Leveling) I added the info from this thread along with the values that I can find myself without spending any souls. Hopefully fellow forum-goers can fill in the rest! ---

I’ve been trying to save up my Souls and only use them to level Troops to 10 and 15 when the Task pops up. It’s working, every day my total grows. Hope I have enough to get my more-used Troops leveled up when the Update hits. ---

start usin the valk on your invasion team it helps so much even if you only cast her once i more than doubles your soul gain. ---

I agree - using Valkyrie is a must. I tried to copy and paste my table of levels and soul costs but the formatting is terrible. Here’s a further attempt. Hope it helps. ``` Level Up Costs (Souls) ``` It’s not working. Sorry. ---
