Last Z Glory Shop

The Glory Shop should be the first stop in your weekly routine. It runs on Glory Points and resets on a fixed cycle. The stock leans heavily toward materials that actually move account progression forward which is why it outranks the flashier event shops. Clear the top items every cycle and work down the list from there. Below is what to buy in order:

Versatile Orange Hero Fragments. Always buy the full stock. These are the top hero upgrade materials in the game.
Golden Wrenches. Essential for vehicle mods and especially valuable in the run-up to Vehicle Boost events.
Exclusive Equipment Framework Fragments. Rare appearance, so grab them whenever they show up. One important catch here. You need at least one exclusive equipment already unlocked or the fragments cannot be applied at all. Paid unlocks like Olivari are usually the entry point.
Random Component Boxes. A consistent, solid buy once the top three categories are cleared.
Refugee Tickets and Enhancement Alloy. Strong secondary pickups, especially when Alliance Duel is on the horizon.
Glory Chests. Burn leftover points here if any are still sitting around.
Modification Blueprints. Fill these last every cycle but do not skip them outright.

Last Z Merit Shop

The Merit Shop has one rule that overrides everything else. Only spend Merit Medals during State Ruler. Outside that event window, hold your medals and walk past the shop entirely. When State Ruler is active though the Merit Shop turns into the strongest shop in the game. The conversion rate from medals into real account progression is not matched anywhere else. Buy in this order while the event runs. Below is what to buy in order:

Power Cores. Clear the full stock first. The medal-to-value ratio here is the strongest in the shop.
Versatile Orange Hero Fragments. When these appear during State Ruler they compete directly with Power Cores on a per-medal basis for most accounts. Do not skip them.
Orange Equipment Choice Box. The 30-item box at 30K medals is significantly more efficient than the higher-cost Power Core variant at 100K. If both appear in the same cycle, grab the 30K version first. Active players treat this as a weekly anchor whenever State Ruler is live.

Skip the purple equipment boxes, basic recruitment tickets, and resource crates at all times. The medal cost never matches the progression value at any serious account level. Between State Ruler events keep your medals untouched. Spending them in the off-window strips out almost all the value they were designed to deliver.

Last Z VIP Shop

The VIP Shop is the simplest store in the entire game to navigate. There is really only one thing worth your VIP Points, and everything else can sit on the shelf. VIP Points accumulate slowly, so routing them anywhere other than the priority pick is almost always a mistake. Below is what to buy:

Golden Wrenches. This is the only consistent purchase here. Clear the available stock every cycle. Wrenches feed straight into vehicle modification progression, and they pull double duty during Vehicle Boost events when every upgrade you make also racks up event points. That conversion rate is hard to beat anywhere else in the game.

Skip the speed-ups specifically. They flow in through daily quests. Mail rewards. Event drops. Burning scarce VIP Points on them is a poor trade when Wrenches are sitting right there. Hold the line on Wrenches every cycle, and your modified vehicle climbs faster than it would on any other routine.

Last Z Camilla's Shop

Camilla's Shop rotates in and out with specific events, so it is not always on the menu. The inventory shifts from cycle to cycle, but the logic for spending the event tokens never really changes. One item carries the entire shop, and everything else fits around it. Below is what to buy in order:

Advanced Mod License. This is the top priority whenever it shows up. Buy the full stock without hesitation. The Mod License is required to push vehicle modification past the higher upgrade stages, and it is genuinely hard to accumulate through regular play. Sitting on event tokens while this is in stock is a mistake you will regret two upgrade tiers later.
Rare modification and vehicle upgrade materials. Follow the same logic. If something is hard to find anywhere else in the game and it shows up here, grab it. The token cost is almost always justified for these.

Skip the common speed-ups in Camilla's Shop. The token price tag does not match the value, given how many other sources push speed-ups into your inventory every week. Save your tokens for the items you cannot easily replace elsewhere.

Last Z Time Limited Shop

The Time-Limited Shop rotates with the event calendar and occasionally stocks some of the strongest items available anywhere in the game. Two categories are worth buying no matter which event is running, and the rest depends on the cycle. The trick is knowing which staples to grab on sight and which one-off offers are worth waiting for. Below is what to buy in order:

Badges. A consistent buy regardless of which event is live. Badges feed directly into high-tier research nodes, and they do not expire, so there is no reason to leave any on the shelf. Buy every badge in stock. Active players also sit on a larger stockpile of badges (around 130 to 140k) to convert into the 200-hour speed-up bundle when it appears. That single purchase delivers a massive boost to upgrade timers.
Versatile Orange Fragments. These unlock at VIP Level 10. Once you hit that threshold, treat them the same way you treat the Glory Shop stock. Buy them whenever they show up. Outside the Glory Shop this is one of the few reliable sources for them.
Gem deals that pencil out. When an event offer pairs gems with a discounted high-value item and the math actually checks out, the Time-Limited Shop is one of the better places to convert. Just make sure the value lines up before pulling the trigger.

Skip the purple hero fragments. At any stage where competitive progression actually matters, purple fragments are not moving the needle in a meaningful way. The slot they take up in your shop list is better spent on the items above.

Last Z Power Core Store

The Power Core Store is one of the easier shops to manage because the priority list is short. Fuel carries the entire shop, and the only other purchase worth considering is situational. Skip the trap of buying Power Cores from the Power Core Store itself, even though the name makes it feel like the obvious move. Below is what to buy in order:

Fuel. Buy this every cycle without exception. Fuel keeps vehicle activity flowing, and it pulls real weight during kill events when the Boomers start showing up, and you need to push damage. Players focused purely on troops, and heroes tend to undervalue Fuel until they hit a wall on a kill event day. Do not let that be you.
Advanced Teleporters. Situational only. Pick these up if your alliance is actively repositioning, prepping for a war, or your server politics make a sudden move likely in the near term. If everything is stable on your server, skip them and save the currency for the next cycle.

Skip Power Cores in this shop. Standard event completion generates 150 to 250 Power Cores per week on most accounts, which is enough to cover normal progression. The only time it makes sense to buy them here is if you are under unusual time pressure for a specific deadline. For routine weekly play, leave them alone.

Last Z Black Market

The Black Market runs on Valor Medals which you earn through Enemy Buster chest unlocks on Alliance Duel Day 6. A full chest unlock pays out 5,200 Valor Medals per cycle. That number doubles to 10,400 if your alliance has Alliance Recognition research active. Supply is tied directly to how hard your alliance pushes during Duel weeks, which is why this shop rewards active play over passive participation. Below is what to buy:

Orange Equipment. This is the primary and best use of Valor Medals by a wide margin. The Black Market is one of the few reliable channels for picking up specific orange gear pieces outside of the standard crafting grind. The medal cost lines up with the progression payoff so clear what you actually need here before looking at anything else on the shelf.

Everything else in the Black Market sits well below orange equipment on the priority list. Cover your gear targets first, then reassess what is still in stock with whatever Valor Medals are left over. Sitting on Valor Medals is generally fine since the orange equipment use case is durable across patches.
