Requirements


The Metallic Obelisk is the second obelisk type available to the people of Egypt. It is built to pass the Test of the Obelisk (or the principle thereof), or simply for decoration.

As with all obelisks, it is built in a Small Construction Site, where the builder defines the size of the obelisk-to-be in cubits. The taller the obelisk, the greater the material requirements.

Sources

This building becomes available when you learn the Obelisk Construction 3 tech. You must also have started the Test of the Obelisk.

*Note that this tech CANNOT be taught. You must learn it from the University.

The Queue

You can see the links to all the queues on the Test of the Obelisk page.

Time Required To Hold Power

14 Egyptian days = approx. 4 days, 16 hours real time.

Projected Formulas

  • Iron: x*x/100 + x
  • Platinum: x*x/200 + x/8
  • Steel Sheeting: x*x/50 + x
  • Pewter: x*x/300 + x/16
  • Cobalt: x*x/1000 + x
  • Leeks: x*x/10 + x*9
  • Candles: x (height)

Warning: Rounding on these is weird. They mostly round down each part (either side of the +), but sometimes you end up with 1 extra.
