Ways to get contribution
1) The easiest and most straight forward way to get contribution is by donating to your group each day. The daily donations will give you 1 contribution for each 3000 coins you donate. The cap starts at 300k coins and rises by 150k coins every ten levels, so a level 41 can contribute 450k coins, a level 51 can contribute 600k coins.
To get to the donation screen click the Group icon on the bottom right bar, go to the Group Donations tab, on the right of the tab will be the box for you to enter your donation amount and a *on labeled "Donate" which will commence the transaction.
2) Group Convoy - Everyday at 12:45 and 19:00 server time you can participate in this event. During the event you must get a scroll from the "Merchant * Commissioner" in the Group base by clicking his first option "I will receive the Heaven and Earth Scrolls". After getting a Sky/Earth scroll you must find a partner with the other scroll to join your team(only 2 people can be on the team doing this event).
After your team has the second scroll click the Merchant again and select the second option to begin. All you need to do is wait 2 minutes or beat one enemy player who tries to rob you. you can do this event 4 times a day and get 25 contribution per attempt if you succeed. rewards are doubled on Wednesdays.
3) Plunder - This event occurs at the same time as the Group Convoy. In this event you are the enemy to the *s from the Group Convoy event. If you defeat both opponents you will get 20 contribution. You can complete this event twice. The event NPC is accross from the Convoy NPC and is named "Intellegence Captian Plunder Commisioner". He will try to find up to three teams for you to plunder, you have a set time to select one or you waste your plunder chance.
4) Great Ninja War - This event occurs on Wednasdays and Saturdays starting at 19:30 server time if your guild leaders registered prior to 19:30 Wednesday. (This event needs a guide onto itself so I wont go over the details for it) This event can get each participant various amounts of contribution for each round you are a part of and those who dont fight can cheer their group on for contribution as well.
What to spend contribution on
Group Skills are the only thing you should spend contribution on until there are no more for you to get. There are 9 skills for you to level that increase your stats. Stat increases include Health, Attack, Ninjutsu, Defense, Resistance, Taijutsu *ion, Ninjutsu *ion, Damage Reduction, and Health regen.
Until lvl 20 Health gives the most power per level followed by Attack, Ninjutsu, Defense, Resistance. Health regen is nice but should be leveled after the previously mentioned skills. The rest of the skills are fillers that should be leveled last when you have few points left or when they are very cheap compared to the rest.
The max level for group skills is determined by a passive your leader upgrades from the "Upgrade Group" *on on the "Benefit Activities" tab of the Group screen. It's the third option labeled "Study Skills" For every level of this passive group members may upgrade each of their skills 5 additional levels.
Why you want to get contribution
Contribution is valuable because of the amount of power it gives for the lower cost. To increase my attack group skill from 20 to 23 it costs 180 contribution and gains 36 attack per ninja. If i Wanted those same gains from gear it would take me enhancing my Jonin blade 4 times at over 50k each level per ninja. 50k*4 = 200k for one ninja and 200k * 4 = 800k to have the same stat gains as 180 contribution which costs 540k but goes to all 4 of my ninjas. For this reason its best to donate your max amount each day as well as do each event.
