#Why no wall gears ?

We've got gear for buildings, we've got gears especially for towers who get multiple updates during a game, but there is a similar type of building that doesn't: walls.

Walls remain the same if you are at level 1 or level 40 (well, except with upgrades, but so do towers), so why are they the only one not getting any gear ? It might be interesting to give it some

Because walls are technically 5 different buildings under the hood.

and there is no way to add a function that if you give gear to let's say "wall1", it gives it to "wall2", "wall3", "wall4" and "wall5" ?

First of all. Imagine what you are saying. Right now there are 5 wall types per each civ.
They have been designed as best as possible to join in perfectly well together.

You think it needs a gear.
First:
why? Is the HP not sufficient?

2nd part:
What do you think will happen and who will need to model 40 (8 civs * 5 wall types) different buildings to accurately join together seamlessly because someone said do it.

Thats at least. If we mean to say only normal (no gear), uncommon, rare, epic, legendary

I mean... buildings get more hp with gear and they are sometimes used defensively. Kinda weird that the thing that is supposed to be used as defense do not get bonus for what it's supposed to do

Wait... buildings don't change form with gears, what are you on about ?

just FYI walls hp scales with the civ level, unlike other buildings which you can consider as a compensation for no gear

Yes, walls start at 1500 hp and reach 2655 for the age 1 version.
That is +77% health for level 40 which is like equipping legendary wall gear.

What I wish for is getting back the extra upgrades that used to exist on walls when microsoft then changed the tech tree and nerfed the wall upgrades.
Wall upgrades used to be: stone wall +100% hp (babylonian civ released after the nerf) [5310 hp], reinforced wall +100% hp [10,620 hp], rampart wall +100% hp [21,240 hp], and this tech (fortified wall) that was removed from the game, +50% hp [31,860 hp].
Not counting ashlar mosnry greek tech or fence builder bes advisor.
As there was 5 versions of wall and 4 upgrades.

There is walls advisor.
Maybe there should be other type of walls advisor for different age.
