Material Cost (gp)

How it works

Select your POH style and rooms to build/upgrade. The calculator uses a database of material requirements for each room and level, then sums the total cost based on current GE prices for materials like planks, nails, and cloth.

Each room requires specific materials depending on its level. Higher-level rooms generally require more expensive materials like mahogany planks, marble blocks, and gold leaf.
