I was curious, though, as to why some people consider charging trophies to be bad. My understanding is that it increased what you get from each trophy. So, let me know why and I'll learn one more bit of strategy. I've only been playing the game for about a year, but played for four or five months before trying to add friends, so I still consider myself a newbie. This site has helped me a LOT.

As you know, I'm a joker, so unless someone gives me a visiting strategy, such as "chrgmerch", I tend to visit the outer locations which are more expensive to play. That way, my 10% discount helps the most. If you have other visiting strategies to share, that would be great.

Well, I'm off to visit you. Cheers and happy Seeking. Charging trophies, even more so if you're a starting player is BAD! To claim the charged trophy, you have to pay for it in rubies, something new players rarely, if ever, have in abundance. If a new players has few locations open, charge EVERYTHING they've got. (except of course, their trophies). Charge the locations w/ the highest rank, the highest paying, their Premium locations if they've accessed them, their crafters. Help them however you can. Remember, you were there once. That strategy differs once someone gets more locations under their belt, of course.

You said "some people consider charging trophies to be bad." Who are the players that consider it to be good? I'd be curious to find out who these people are.

I was fortunate and found this place not too long after I'd started playing. Like you, I didn't find out the benefits of adding friends until I'd been playing several months. I'd somehow gotten it into my head that you had to be on FB to add friends. Once I'd gotten over that, I would add friends that the game offered up. (They were rarely of any benefit). It took me even longer to figure the whole visiting and hiring thing. lol

Once I'd gotten on here, I shed many, if not all, of the people that the game had supplied, and replaced them with people on here. Once I made the mistake of going to Instagram, I think it was, to one of those friend code exchanges that you see in the game announcements. BIG MISTAKE! omg, those people apparently don't undersand fair play. I'd send passes/CIs, they'd send back Fluff. :/ That is why I said I wanted everyone on my FL to be FU (Fandom Users).

When visiting, I go by rank, not just by highest-paying. If someone isn't visiting a location, no matter how much it pays, there's no point in charging the location. Admittedly, it's a real PITA to tell the difference between the two levels that are Black (can never recall their names, Magister, or is that one of the red ones?). I always have to zoom in to tell them apart, which adds a lot more time to visiting, but that prevents me from charging places that don't need a Joker's charge. That's just my method of visiting, but I don't get any complaints. I charge crafters and TB and HL, too, since so many people want the puzzles for the GQ, and the crafters are always in demand whenever they use a Magisterium.

Hope this helps!

See you in Darkwood!
