SynthesisAlpha posted:Well the core gameplay doesn't evolve much, you just get more things to juggle. I've mostly fallen off of it, but it held me for a good couple weeks. Solid innovation in the genre, somewhat crippled by timers and energy mechanics. Well mobile games are my only option at the moment due to being out of town for work stuff, but yeah, I am already getting a taste of the juggling it seems like. I mostly just like having something mindless to plug away at when I'm not in the mood to load up FGO.

And eventually, the dev's magnum opus, Caves of Qud, will hopefully be coming to mobile.  That game is so incredibly good.

There are 4 relics that if you get them together can make the labyrinth, peaks of time and voyage of wonders much easier. Sunstone = allies with 50% or higher health constantly regen energy Moonstone = allies with 50% or higher energy constantly regen health Having both of them doubles their effects Icebringer and firebringer = one reduces enemy attack rating everytime your guys land a hit. The other reduces enemy defense ratings on every hit you land. Those 4 relics make things much easier. In some peaks of time or voyage it can make sense to restart if the first few chests don't give you one or two of them. https://www.afkarena.net/relics If you ever plan on doing hard mode wrizz the relic for Kaz which makes every attack poison and stackable trivializes him if you have a decent Kaz or can get one in a wagon

In Egg, Inc, what is the qualification to prestige? In other idle games I've played with the prestige mechanic, it's usually best to prestige as soon as you need to start idling a bunch, but I'm up to super material eggs and still not allowed even after I would have prestiged on previous levels (basically I let it idle however long the two free silos went and when I came back I could level up to the next farm).

Not allowed? I don't remember not being allowed to prestige. Like, I thought you could literally do it at any moment, even if you've only saved up 1 soul egg. That's be a horrible waste of time, but I thought it was still possible. I normally hold off on prestiging until I'm barely gaining any more soul eggs, but also if I'm VERY far away from the next egg upgrade. I mean if I'm practically an order of magnitude away from the next one. If the upgrade is at something like 180 octillion, and I'm at 10 octillion, I'd definitely wait. If I haven't cracked 1 octillion, though, and everything's slowed down to a crawl (earnings and being able to afford research, too, of course, not just soul eggs), I'd definitely prestige at that point.

That reminds me - one thing that is not obvious or documented is that the artifacts that give you bonuses if you win battles are actually retroactive, NOT for battles you win after you get them. Nephzinho posted:Is there something I'm missing with the Lucent Veil in AFK that the last chest being guarded just curbstomps you after you breeze through the rest of the dungeon? As was quoted, if you get fire+ice bringer and moon + sunstone you should be golden. The nice thing is with this one you can click on the chests to preview the artifacts, so you can just restart until you get the good ones. Also, my opinion is that this pvp event sucks. My maulers are pretty low ascension/level so I can't actually... win any battles with them.

Oh, you haven't gotten any soul eggs at all? Ok, that makes sense that you can't prestige. The whole point is that it takes however many soul eggs you've earned at the time of prestiging, and then uses them as a multiplier for your baseline cash after that. So if you're soul eggs add up to a multiplayer worth $1 million, and you've prestiged and are now producing the standard eggs, those are no longer worth $0.25, each, but rather $250,000 each. EDIT: I should mention that each soul egg is worth a certain amount. You don't need 1 million to have them multiply your egg value by 1 million.

You are confusing Prestige with upgrading to the newer farm. They are different things. You can upgrade to the next farm by getting the current farm value high enough. You can see you current farm value and also the Next Egg/Farm value you need by hitting the Egg in the upper right hand corner. For prestige you can do it pretty much anytime you want. You just hit the Main Menu button (9 dots in a 3x3 grid). Prestige is the 2nd option in there. It will tell you how many Soul Eggs you will get and a bunch of other info. The difference between the two things is that Upgrading the farm you jump to the next farm but keep you current farm value and bonuses and such. When you Prestige you start from the basic egg farm again. You get the Soul Eggs bonus and also keep a bunch of other upgrades but you have to work your way up through the farms again. You can skip farms when upgrading if you have enough farm value to go up 2 or 3 farms at once. This happens a lot once you get a bunch of Soul Eggs. It is worth it to Prestige if you stagnate and don't seem to be making progress towards the next farm. You will get back to the spot you were fairly quickly and then pass it because now you have that extra Soul Egg bonus.

Ah, I've always wondered if those were retroactive, cool. And yes I agree, this is the worst event. Hopefully the next one will be better. By the way, there is a developer feedback thread on reddit. Coolest tidbit imo is they're looking into a equip best in slot button which will be amazing for the faction towers https://www.reddit.com/r/afkarena/comments/cud4fu/weekly_developer_feedback_08232019/

I'm actually happy with it, I've been trading the emblems in for gems and have managed to get a draw 10 every day, where I normally only get one every 2-3 days. Helped me get a legendary Henrik anyway.

A tip that helped me beat it was to use Athalia, if you have her - she will stun the sword guy (I forget his name) and stop him from doing the whirlwind that wipes half your team.

On egg Inc, there is a trick with the daily rewards when you get cash. If you don't open it until after you prestige (or start a new contract), you get the money you would have gotten at your original stage. It's a bit cheesy, but doesn't feel like a complete exploit like messing with your phones time. Anyways, it accelerated progress enough that I'm still interested in the game, and don't have to be carried in every contract.

Along with Lightbringer and Mage boosters, easily beat the final boss, only losing Athalia in the final battle. Nice. I am struggling to not just feed my L+ Arden to my Tasi or Nemora. I know he's still supposedly useful, but I just hit the level 160 hero wall and don't have a Wilder mythic yet.

Is difficulty scaled on average level or lowest level? Like if I level one or two of my dudes to 160 and have 3/5 stuck at 100 because it's the elite cap, are enemies scaled to level 100?

A post from the devs in that reddit thread I posted 🔴Suggestion 9: The scaling of Voyage/Labyrinth should not consider total-account-power. It discourages equipping and ascending all my heroes out of fear that they increase scaling while my mainteam did not get stronger. It can lead to situations where suddenly Labyrinth is really hard (or the voyage unbeatable) because on made the mistake of equipping all heroes and putting as many into the resonating crystal as possible. It does not feel natural to avoid being powerful just because of scaling issues • Feedback: Voyage and Labyrinth's difficulty is actually based on your 5 strongest heroes with their equipment and how you used them in the past. Removing the equipment before entering the Labyrinth is generally pointless. "how you used them in the past" needs clarification imo

Alright, guess I'll see what this AFK Arena is that all the kids are talking about. How soon can I expect to max out my level by saving an old man, or perhaps pull pins out of weird contraptions to get a pile of treasure from a dragon? This is very important.
