Yah seriously. You can rob dumb shits going for 120 Agi out of millions of gold while also making 77 Agi for quests hurt literally half as much.


Also, having sent in a brave goon to be a guinea pig, I can now recommend the Barbass tutorial if you haven't played the game or need to refresh on what's going on. Ask in clan chat for a normal mode run if you haven't killed the Queen since Hard Mode got added, and be ready to run waves 1-6 (which is super easy and still pays lots of bxp) and sell Wave 7 tickets for LOADSAMONEY

BEHOLD, MAGRES DELIVERS! I'm gonna be running a ton of Hardass Barbass on Saturday, November 22nd. I've got like 8m bxp to hammer out and a ton of money to make. I'm planning to just run waves 1-6 over and over because they're real fast and still deliver solid bxp.


Also, 99 Cooking :toot:

With Christmas coming up, it's time to start thinking about some festive suggestions for the Ninja Team to develop - today I noticed a glaring issue that desperately needs correcting ASAP: The Santa Beard can't be attached to luchador masks OR sombreros!

I posted a thread on the Ninja Team forums about this, and they need to hear from some more supporters before they add this Very Important Update. Help me GoonScape, you're my only hope.

GoonScape is one of the best goon groups you can join so enjoy, even if you aren't going to play seriously it's great to chat with fellow Goonscapers.

Also Goonscape will help accelerate you past as much of the bullshit as possible. Liiike clan citadel! It's a thing you can go do menial tasks in for buckets and buckets of XP (even without the promise of pay, it's worth doing), and if you max out your contribution for the week (takes an hour or two) then talk to Pizza Lady (Themata here on the forums) and she'll toss 500k at you each week you do citadel. It's a really good chunk of seed money to jump you past the horrible "oh god I have to save up 40k for a rune pick that will take me a week" stage of being a newbie.

A riskier source of dough is Flex Mentallo (aka 99 Cents Amigo on SA)'s loan program, where what you borrow from him for no interest a month and then at the end of the month he takes 100% interest every day you don't pay.

Yeah the clan citadel got me to like 40 Summoning just doing that after a few weeks.

Is it worth being a member off the bat or should I be doing all the available free content before becoming a member?

I'd say get membership immediately. Even from the very beginning members have more access to content and better versions of it

There should be a self imposed threshold on when to reroll rewards. For my elites I'm guessing not to reroll unless around 200k or below. My average for 5 elites has been 330k per clue yet my reroll on a 359k clue knocked it down to 200 or so.

Don't know much about other clue types but there should be a similar mindset.

Also haven't run into any new items. Guess those are just as rare as every other good reward, including fallen stars and effigies.
