I'll bet, second one took 116 seconds and I spent the whole time just kind of making annoyed noises and wondering why I'm doing this when I've got nothing to daycare anyway. E: And the third one 243, just too annoying to actually do these for no good reason. At least I'm doing them with about-to-push-into-Evil stats.

daycare is the primary way you level most late pendants/looties so it's pretty good

Are people running daycares full of Pendants/Looties when not leveling gear? I have the highest version I've unlocked of each in there now getting levels but feel like I probably should be leveling the ones below it too to feed into the highest one when maxed.

I've only used daycare for one of the hearts so far (because I got a bunch of steambux during the sale and figured I'd toss cash at the creator), but boy is that reeeeeeeal slow at my point. 4 levels a day!

you should always have a copy of the highest pendant/looty in your daycare because later on (don't remember when it starts) money pit starts giving you levels on everything in daycare. Also you'll have like 3-5 daycare slots and there's definitely enough room for extra things. Hearts are always top priority for daycare though.Kin posted:Nah, I've kinda just been powering through it as other than walderp there hasn't really been anything that's needed tactics so far. I would at least go back and farm up all the Yggdrasil yield items and seed gain items to have on a set that you just swap to when eating fruits and immediately swap back. It's like two clicks and you'll get so much more XP out of fruit of knowledge. Also having all your best resource 3 gear on for a day when you drink the resource 3 pots and push hacks as hard as they can go helps boost your progress a lot. It is an idle game though, and a great one where there is no wrong way to play. numbers will go up regardless Dumping as much as you can into wishes is good for the first few things, after that you want like 20% or less of E/M/3 in there. I think the rule of thumb is doubling the wish resources gives you like 10% more wish speed, so use your judgement there on putting more in vs running NGUs or whatever. Most of my wishes right now are like 8-10 hrs with ~5% resources so pumping extra isn't really worth it.

Oh, the pendant goes beyond one level? Wait, Looty is also going to ascend? gently caress me. To put this into perspective I'm pretty early:

Thankfully from the looks of things most of the items i've gotten rid of for seed/Yggdrasil gai are from titans so they'll naturally build up themselves after i stop filtering them. Gotta go back and farm the candy corn necklace and infinity charm though. Hopefully it wont take long with the drop rate levels i have now. I've also never been drinking any potions... I've probably been missing out on huge gains here and there.

Big Mad Drongo posted:The higher versions will drop as you go, no need to farm the baseline ones. At most you want two of the highest version, one to equip and one to level in daycare, and maybe one each from a tier or two down to stack bonuses. Yeah. For instance, right now I'm between Godmother and Exile Titans. I have Ascended x6 Pendent and GALACTIC HERALD LOOTY in my equipment. I have two copies of the next tier down for each, one in daycare constantly leveling and one in my inventory to be swapped in when feeding the Money Pit. Then I have two copies of the tier below that which I get from killing Titans - so as they reach 100 I'll transform them and add to the copy in my inventory. Everything below that I've filtered out. I'm building to a second copy of Ascended x6 and GALACTIC HERALD LOOTY so I can put those in my daycare. Once you have wishes unlocked, you get a wish to improve the Money Pit and the daycare/equipment levels become much more common results. Kin posted:So, if it came down to it, what's the better initial investment for AP. Pink Heart for sure. It takes a long time to level so best to get started right away (it's like 3x as long as the hearts before it, I think 1 level per 24 hours base rate). Plus extra Wish slots are great for hammering out wishes that you've already hit the minimum time for, where 25% faster won't do much besides let you assign a few % less stats to it.

I have tons of undrank potions also (mostly from spending money on an idle game  ), my usage has mainly been during days where I knock out a dozen challenges, and drinking the beta potions when I do a week long rebirth to push advanced training. The R3 potions are really good to dedicate an entire day to hacking and push hack hack another few milestones

 I honestly feel like I've been spinning my wheels in Sadistic without much progress for a long while now, just periodically ticking off a Quirk/Perk/Wish. Never really saw the PP/QP returns people were posting about and new gear/zone progress has been frozen for a while- although on checking it seems I'm able to push into Back To School so yay. idk, no feature seems to be really demanding my attention anymore and cards, while providing a lot of bonuses, were a somewhat bland mechanic. NGU good, I'm just maybe burned out a little, idk, but progress hasn't felt as rewarding as it was in Normal/Evil for me.

Yeah I'm just a bit further than you and it has definitely slowed way down for me at this point, I was able to grind out all the gear for BTS and It Hungers v1 by doing a real long rebirth, like a couple weeks long, to build up the stats to reliably do it. Since then I've been doing daily rebirths again to build up exp but at this point it does feel like I'm super far from being able to take on IHv2 or the next adventure zone, even after maxing out all the gear from Back to School.

Is it a bad idea to level boosts when I'm like two days into NGU? As soon as I noticed I get bonuses from maxing items, I kinda stopped boosting anything and focused on leveling everything to 100 first.

You'll pretty much always want to focus on boosting stuff first, since you only need to do it once. Boosts are important to boost because it permanently boosts the boost's boost.

Does NGU have any super secret scripting engine or way to buy one? I'm doing 24 hour challenges and I'm like: OK at 1.5 minutes click time machine and dump everything there, at 5 minutes click 1/4 idle energy and click charge shot twice and evergy buster once, at 15 minutes send energy and magic to wandows and extra to advanced training ... ... ... at one hour click harvest all>1 and then money put then rebirth. Like I got a thing going and it could be scripted to like (push this button at this time) for this stage of the game.

So I've managed to cap out the 4 talismans I have, I've got autosac running at 15m and things have kind of stalled out. I assume I need to get all these rune level researches and just powerlevel them because the other researches don't look like they're gonna help with pushing challenges very much. Has anyone here managed to snag another talisman? I kind of assume at this point anything you unlock you immediately blast up to red to juice your runes even more but it looks like a long slog since A isn't in yet.

There's no way you're going to unlock the remaining talismans in this patch. After you get all of the relevant researches that are affordable and actually provide a benefit right now, try to cap 4x24 and start to bump up 4x25 in anticipation for the new patch (which is in public testing right now), which introduces a new reset tier and currency. The reset is kind of brutal because you go back to no ants, no particles, no obtainium upgrades, no runes, nothing, and have to build it all back up again, all the way to C10x1, so you're looking at 2-3 days if not longer.
