Do you still find it beneficial to keep doing 24 hour rebirths? I still don't have the Bank V started for Adv Training yet so maybe that has something to do with it, but I was planning on at least trying to finish all the pieces to the Radlands set before rebirthing again. Rebirths + Fruits are your main source of XP. Not too mention the Number benefits rebirths bring. And yea, getting Banks is super important.

KazigluBey posted:I'm having trouble with transitioning to Exile v3, let alone v4; So far when it comes to Titans I've slowly coasted to the point autokills become available and then moved up in versions, but the high Exile autokill thresholds combined with no other gear set to work on post-Radlands means I'm not really sure how to proceed. Should I be aiming for manual kills only and then move to Sadistic as soon as I can nail a manual kill on v4, leaving autokill farming for much later?

So I just dipped back into Normal to finish off those remaining challenges. Y'know, that kinda doesn't look right. e: The Blood Magic Number Bonus (Last Rebirth) also seems to be leaking across challenges. Jabor fucked around with this message at 14:08 on Feb 8, 2020 |

Almost done with the first troll challenge. That wasn’t nearly as bad as I expected. Should I keep powering through til i get at least the extra accessory slot, or do they ramp up in difficulty?

The trolls come a little faster, and the target boss gets higher If you felt like you could easily do another 20-30 bosses with rebirths, you're fine to try the next one

The moment you try and stretch at all they become pretty grindy and if you go oh there's just 1 more after I made it through that one in 2 hours how hard could the final one be? That is when you run into problems because that's probably going to be a 12 hour grind. The one that feels long but manageable is the warning that it's going to feel unwieldy and hopeless on the next one. All the hate comes from people pushing into the extreme end, which to be fair the rewards tend to be really good so the "just one more" is extremely tempting. Go for the second one, you can also end a challenge early if you do end up stepping into one that is just hell.

Back before cards came out, I bought Adventure stats to move up in Exile versions. Take a look and see if you can get a significant increase for a day or two's worth of experience.

NGU feature request: in the list of crap to do before rebirthing, tell me if I have empty MacGuffin slots. I definitely rebirthed a couple days without realizing I had an empty slot thanks to an item set bonus.

How do i get the NGU gear optimizer to consider the resource cap? With my Max MGU Speed set i would have had 11e18 energy if the cap was not 9e18, so it feels like i have some wasted potential in my gear.

I've got my badly drawn set up to level 100, but the boosts required to max it out are extreme. I'm looking at needing a good 7-8 million in special points to max it all. I've dumped my PP into Boosted Boosts 1 to take it up to the max level, and i've collected 100 of every boost up to the 200. A single 200 boost will now give me 959 points, but even then, that's still a lot of boosts i need. Is there a quick way to grind them up? My adventure stats are 314M power and 229 Toughness which isn't that far off from being able to idle Boring rear end Earth. Is the set from there an even bigger jump from the BDW set and should i just boost my adventure stats a little more and idle there instead of maxing out the BDW set?

BDW is the first set with big Special Stats, which is kind of your cue to finish the 100LvL Challenges. The sort of good news is that they are not very good stats, aside from the Head and maybe the Weapon, so if you got the P/T maxed, its a good idea to farm BAE and then do the challenges after you maxed its levels.

Definitely aim for the Beast first, it's a game-changer. Later on, at ITOPOD level 450 you'll be dropping 1K boosts and that will finally allow to easily max out those stats.

I'm probably going to hit evil mode in NGU sometime tonight, but I'm not sure if there's anything I should be sure to get before I do. I've already got all the challenges cleared except the last 5 time machines, so is there anything I'm missing?

I've had some fun with Idle Skilling on phone. Its ad-free and is pretty good about the whole "paradigm shift" thing, it keeps adding new skills that all function in unique and interesting ways. Of course, it makes up for this by being really pay to win. If you're willing to fork over cash you can make just about anything way easier, doubling or tripling (or more) your resource production in all facets of the game. It's thankfully not an awful pace if you spend little to no money; I think I spent about 5 bucks and I'm fine with how fast things are going. But the option is definitely there.

Aha, OK. I grinded the advanced stats for a bit to let me idle the BAE set. The pieces are only about level 10 so far and I've still got loads of boosts to put in them but they've already exceeded the BDW set. Is getting a level 69 ring of apathy for the 1st Beast thing fairly easy at this point? I remember it taking a while to get one before and level it up to 100 (in daycare).

Game gives you free IAP at a rate comparable to NGU, but you're right that IAP purchases are important. The most egregious example being the Infinity Forge which is all but mandatory for mid-late game progression. The developer is also notoriously slow to fix bugs, though most of the bugs don't pop up til closer to endgame. Still, I've enjoyed my time with Idle Skilling overall.

I've been playing this pretty obsessively on my phone for the past few weeks and bought the starter pack just to get the infinity forge, really. It definitely is the kind of upgrade that seems overpowered as hell. I am loving the game to be honest, but on Android it crashes all the goddamn time for me. Also the ramp-up is not nearly as elegant as it is in NGU, they throw a bunch at you from the start with a few short tutorial sentences for each thing that doesn't help a lot. Menus are confusing as hell too. I'm already pretty well initiated into this kind of thing thanks to NGU so it wasn't horrible but can imagine someone coming to it who hasn't played a game like this before being immediately turned off.
