+# Gas Optimization on Base
+
+Base offers significantly lower fees than Ethereum L1, but optimizing further improves user experience, especially for high-volume apps, agents, or mini-apps. Focus on happy-path patterns with real examples.
+
+## Core Principles
+
+- **Batch where possible**: Reduce per-transaction overhead.
+- **Use efficient data types and patterns**: Avoid unnecessary storage writes.
+- **Leverage Base-specific features**: Flashblocks for faster/previewable inclusion, accurate fee estimation.
+- **Client-side estimation**: Always simulate before sending.
+
+Fees are dynamic. Always estimate on-chain; Base's block production differs from L1. See [Network Fees](/base-chain/network-information/network-fees).
+
+## Step-by-Step Techniques
+
+### 1. Accurate Gas Estimation
+
+Use `eth_estimateGas` or libraries with Base RPCs. Prefer `base` public endpoints or providers.
+
+```typescript
+// filename: estimate-gas.ts
+import { createPublicClient, http, parseEther } from 'viem'
+import { base } from 'viem/chains'
+
+const client = createPublicClient({
+  chain: base,
+  transport: http()
+})
+
+async function estimateTransfer(to: `0x${string}`, value: bigint) {
+  const gas = await client.estimateGas({
+    account: '0xYourAddress',
+    to,
+    value
+  })
+  console.log(`Estimated gas: ${gas}`)
+  return gas
+}
+```
+
+Combine with `eth_feeHistory` for priority fees. See [RPC API](/base-chain/api-reference/rpc-overview)
+
+### 2. Batching Transactions
+
+Use multicall or account abstractions (Base Account / Smart Wallets) for batched ops.
+
+**Example with viem + Base Account patterns** (link to sub-accounts/spend permissions docs). 
+
+### 3. Contract-Level Optimizations
+
+- Use `immutable`/`constant` where possible.
+
+- Minimize storage slots (pack variables).
+
+- Prefer events over storage for offchain indexing.
+
+- For agents: Use efficient loops and avoid reverts in hot paths.
+
+### 4. Flashblocks-Aware Patterns
+
+Preview transactions or react to partial blocks for better UX in high-throughput scenarios. (Link to Flashblocks section). 
+
+## Common Pitfalls & Troubleshooting
+
+- **Nonce gaps**: Handle carefully with replacements. See [Troubleshooting Transactions](/base-chain/network-information/troubleshooting-transactions). 
+
+- **Over-estimation**: Add small buffer but avoid excess.
+
+- **Legacy vs EIP-1559**: Base supports modern types; use `maxFeePerGas`/`maxPriorityFeePerGas`.
