Q. Are plans consumed when something is built? And/Or turning them in for the quest?
A. Yes plans are consumed each time you build something and for the quests, they are NOT reusable.
Q. Can i use my quest plan to build anything instead of turning it to the npc?
A. Yes you can currently build the city buildings before actually doing the quest, but whether this is intended or not is yet to be determined.
Q. Does an architect need to make two sets of plans for every building in order to advance to the next tier?
A. Yes one set for the quest and one set for the buildings themselfs.
Q. Do any of the buildings actually do anything?
A. Negative they do nothing accept take up space and give you something to brag about, they don't event give you any storage! Hopefully the Dev's implement the rewards soon.
Q. Why do you lose the plans for a building once it is built.
A. Consumables... It's a gold sink, they keep inflation at bay and prices reasonable.

Q. Is Tier 2 construction even available?
A. Seeing as you can't accept the quest, no. This is confirmed as i have completed all 5 sections of the tier 1 quests. The quest is visible in the form of a grayed out asterisk!!!!
Q. Is there going to be player housing that can be added to the cities one day?
A. No hard evidence one way or the other yet.. rumor mill says Barracks may have instanced housing in it for each member in the guild as well as spawning npc guards... wait as see!

General Information About Cities
Reserving a guild city location?
The Guild Leader must go to the guild management tab (available at level 20) half way down on the first page there is a plot reservation tool open it and select which of the 3 building locations you want to live in. I recommend visiting each location before you pick they are very different.
After you have reserved the location it will tell you which instance you live in. Level restriction of 40 for the guild leader, and 24 members were required to reserve your plot, it was bugged when i did it and our city was reserved at level 22. I do not know if the GM's have since fixed this if you can confirm please post a screen shot of the denial because of your level.
Requirements for the guild...
All buildings are 24 members required, so is reserving a city plot.
PvE Nature Of the Towns, Enemy NPC's & Your Neighbors!
Three guilds are assigned to each city zone, on the pvp servers currently PVP is enabled we are unsure if this is intended or not. Currently only the three guilds that live in your city zone can enter that zone, if one of the other guilds is an enemy they currently have the ability to destroy your city buildings this is definitely not intended, city siege pvp is supposed to be in the boarder kingdoms. Enemy npc's are rumored to spawn and attack your city from time to time at the moment if this is intended it is disabled no npc's have been reported raiding a city to my knowledge.
Battlekeeps
They are not in Lachleish Plains, Poitain or The Purple Lotus Swamp, these are PVE city zones reserved to guilds that live in them. BattleKeeps Exist in Border Kingdom Aquilonian End, Boarder Kingdom Cimmerian End & The Border To Kush. To our knowledge each one of these areas only has one instance with 3 keeps in it a grand total of 9 battle keeps per server, representing each country. Requirements for these will come as we learn more and will be posted in the PvP related forums as well as in another thread here titled Battlekeep Building FAQ. Look for that in the next few days. The only requirement i know for sure for these is a tier 3 PVE City.
Spawning NPC's in your town
Barracks are rumored to spawn npc's in the city as well as to provide instance based player housing.. This is all rumors as you can build it but currently nothing happens will post more info when there is hard evidence.
Building Repair Costs & Maintenance
Currently this is also disabled will update when that changes.
Current known bugs...
With SO much disabled it's difficult to tell what is disabled and what are bugs will updates and more time passes.

Crafting Information
Quest Info
To complete all the quests for the first tier you have to make 18 plans in all. Two parchment(75 Silver Each) and one Drawing Ink(50 Silver Each) per plan from the merchant in the npc cities of Lachleish Plains, Poitain or Purple Lotus Swamp.
Cost
For the first tier each plan for each quest costs 2 gold, there are 18 plans in total so 36 gold is needed for the first tier quests. An additional plan must be created for every building, gate, tower & each wall segment separated by the gates and towers. So for the actual construction your looking at 2 gold for every individual piece. (I will count all the piece and post and official total when the servers come back up)
The 18 plans include the seige weapons because they are required to complete the quest. For just the buildings not including the walls, towers, or gates it's a total of 20gold.
55 Outer Wall (Including all wall segments, towers, and gate)
16 Inner Wall (Including all wall segments, towers, and gate)
71 Total "Wall" Segments
Each Requires 2 Gold For A It's Own Plan
Grand Total For Walls 142 Gold
