I wish foods could just be enabled and would get consumed as relevant actions are done. Doing the 5min time management is super finicky and annoying.

The plan was to make meals cheaper but reduce them all to 1 minute buffs. (Which now seems to be on hold)

I‘ve not seen much more on Discord.

Not sure what you mean or what your goal is.

Super Rare items, or items that are required for unlocking features, lock themselves automatically as you should never sell them.

Other items don't auto lock.

The only way to avoid that is to not track the quest

If you track a quest it automatically locks everything that the quest requires

I AM THE ONLY ONE IN THIS GAME WHO GETS LAID
Just got my 100B storehouse upgrade from throwing everything into PC. I'm only 4 GMs away from enough AK to unlock T100, I should probably fish in other places to try to grab some of the moderately difficult fish.

Man, I’m on towering investment 3 and I went to look ahead at what else was waiting for me in that chain and uh, might have zapped my desire to play this game for a while.

Lots of bad grinding, but 150 of each gold fish after I JUST turned 100 of a bunch of them for another quest…

Trade as much blue gel as you can, and I auto fish once or twice a day for gold fliers.

The new fishing food with mealworms makes farming gold fish a shitton easier, alongside the grab bag 7 exchanges mentioned above

T110 offers 1500 more Fruit Trees, I believe. You need to find it in Farm Supply (Gold Perks), not as a Skill Perk.

Nothing new after hitting T110.

Yeah, I’ve stopped at 110 for now because none of the higher tiers do anything yet. Recent notes said they were testing having the 120 artifact reduce cooking time by 10%, which seems underwhelming to me but they put that idea on hold.

Eww thats like, actively bad. I wish I could undo my cooking time upgrades so I can get more stir/taste events per recipe.

I think if any cooking time upgrades also applied proportionately to stir/taste/season timers, allowing you to get the same or more of those in per meal, they'd actually be good.

Since bitching about this I've snagged two pieces of heart in 1000 watermelons, so as always the trick is to complain about it on the internet.

Two more to go and I can stop farming watermelons!

This is what you get. For falling in Love
Seeing that some people are completing quests that reward 2 billion silver, I have very little shame asking if someone can please give me a loving diamond. I’ve been trying to get one from sprinting in black rock or whatever. I’ve spend like 40k stamina and get seem to get the drat thing to drop. Also I need treasure keys if anyone wants to be extra nice.

Unfortunately neither diamonds nor treasure keys are mailable.

Is there something I need to do to increase the chance the thing will drop for me? I’ve spent more stamina on ember lagoon more than anything else combined at this point. I did just upgrade my lemon juice to give me 20 items per pot. I’m just dumping all of my fuckin resources into getting a drat diamond lol

That’s kinda how the RNG in this game works. On the plus side Ember Lagoon drops AC so you can put those towards spins.

You’ve also publicly complained about it and that tends to raise your odds significantly.

There is no real rush dude, as soon as you have that diamond there will be another grind to do.

For perspective, one of the endgame quests requires 4000 diamonds.

It's a gate. That's the game. If things are mailable always ask because often people have zillions.

To give you an idea eventually you will have 2 pets bringing you several per day. Grind out some mastery while grind for the diamond. Make lanterns and horseshoes and cups.

What is the next 10bn upgrade? I have the storehouse one. Is there a pet or should I do the crop row? I'm leaning crop row.

Sawmill, straw, quarry make decent amounts. Not inventory per hour but I'm voiding a bunch as is. Orchard makes >inventory per day and I add 11 trees a day to stay that way.
