SynthesisAlpha posted:Blink runes jump you backwards, which can dodge projectiles or get you out of melee. Still kinda useless. Save any junk runes for after your second meditation. At that point you open up the crafting altar which lets you grind down runes and recombine them into new ones. Awesome. I was hoping there'd be something to spend these on, I usually end up mashing on all of them during a hard Raid just to power up and get rid of em all.

Sandwich Anarchist posted:Any suggestions for spell builds in Tap Wizard? I can't seem to put out any single target damage whatsoever. I can blow through a zone with shocks nets and poo poo, but I'll stall at the boss (usually trolls), seeming to not even move their health bar. I think this means you just have to recall and get a little bit more powerful until you can beat the thing. I actually haven't found any builds, I think because there's so many factors in what would be best to use at any given time. I usually pick the first spell that I really want to level up, then read the bonuses it gives and try to pick ones that benefit from those bonuses. If there are none, move onto spell 2 and do the same thing.

JeffT417 posted:Pokemon quest is dumb and good. As with typical Nintendo, it is immaculately polished. I played this a bunch on Switch, I'm bummed to say there doesn't appear to be a way to link accounts. I progressed pretty far there before realizing this would be much better suited to have on a cellphone. My only concern when I played on switch is there doesn't seem to be much to the "end game" unless some poo poo opens up after beating all the islands. After a week or so without putting any money into it I had a team of level 70 guys and there was only a handful of levels I couldn't beat that had ridiculously high recommended power. I guess like most Pokemon games the "end game" is just to catch em all? Edit: I do notice a Data Backup option.. I don't think this was on the Switch version but I'll have to check. I'd love to get that progress back! explosivo fucked around with this message at 18:54 on Jun 27, 2018 |

Anyone here playing Idle Apocalypse? I'm kind of digging the change in mechanics where you have producers, converters, and monster spawners and having to manage the resources between those floors. I'm looking for general tips if anyone's got em, I'm on my third run right now and from the sound of it I don't necessarily want to be restarting too often since that won't give me many souls to spend.

Been playing Almost a Hero this weekend and this may be my new obsession for the near future. Seems like a fun enough tapper/idler with some ads for bonuses but nothing super intrusive. It's actually refreshing only having a party of 5 so you're not scrolling through a gigantic list of dudes like in Tap Titans.

Tsietisin posted:I've been playing for the best part of a month. I'm really enjoying it. Not needed to pay for gems and still managed to get quite a distance. I am kind of struggling with builds right now, a lot of the guides I've found are confusing to follow along with or seem maybe outdated? I'm still pushing for 140 right now so it's not a huge concern but I assume pretty soon it'll get more necessary to focus on one particular path with everyone. I did buy the starter pack for $4 which got me some nice runes (got bounce and the one that makes enemies weak when hit by lightning which is a good combo).

Tsietisin posted:After that use Vexx. Her skill at the top left allows for an 80% discount on upgrading her. Is possible you may need to craft an artifact that lowers ability skill level requirement to use it early game. Okay THIS is what I was looking for. All the stuff I've been reading was talking about first leveling some of these skills that you can't get until you reach level 11 or 12 and I just didn't understand how without first dumping a bunch of points into other stuff. This is good to know, I'll be on the lookout for one of those artifacts. I have 13 slots opened up right now, those slots are all I've been using gems on so that's good to hear you say it too.

After a couple days (and a lot of progress) with Almost a Hero I'm beginning to realize the "endgame" here is doing runs at 100x speed over and over again to grind out progress and I'm not sure how I feel about it. Problem is after unlocking and buffing the speed up item, playing the game is no longer really a passive experience. When it's going full speed you're constantly upgrading and allocating skills and everything's happening so fast that I feel like I need to devote my full attention to it for the duration of the item. It's only like ~2.5 minutes of time, but it's a really hectic 2.5 minutes. I'm not complaining that you have to grind out progress in a clicker game, it's more that the way you level people up in the game doesn't seem really well suited for how quickly it moves when speeding it up like this. Having to click and hold on the button to put enough points in so they level up, and then having to click on that person again to allocate the skill point just gets tedious when you have to do it over and over again. I think there might be an item that you can get that does this stuff automatically though? I'm not positive but that would probably help if all I have to do is allocate skill points.

ItsNotAGirlName posted:There is, when you start unlocking Mythical Runes you can roll the Lazy Finger rune that auto levels your party, leveling the rune increases how long it stays active. Makes things much easier. Oh thank god. Montalvo posted:Is there a good rule of thumb for when to prestige in a run of Almost a Hero? Depends, if you're on a roll and want to try to push, keep going until your dudes can't stay alive. Push for rewards if you see one come up you really want, and prestige once you're totally out of gas. Or you can get to about 90% of your max level when things start slowing down and prestige to restart quicker and rinse/repeat to grind mythstones. I looked up some guides for parties revolving around Lenny which helped give me some direction. Not sure where you're at in the game but once you get a 100k mythstone run and can upgrade almost all of your runes things get exponentially faster at that point. Right now if I'm actively playing and using the speed up items I'm doing quick ~30 minute runs that get me to around level 400 and net me a couple million mythstones. Edit: This is the cheatsheet I've been using for builds right now. I have no idea if this is up to date or accurate at all anymore but it's been good for me so far

Montalvo posted:Thanks for the information. I'm still really early in the game (I think this is going to be my 4th prestige or so) and I've only just made it to the upper 70s in terms of levels. I'm using gems to unlock artifact slots as per the advice in the thread, but other than that I'm not really thinking too much about hero builds since I haven't even unlocked all of them / get to their max levels. Yeah you're good for a while just using who you have. As long as you're unlocking the artifact slots and crafting new artifacts you're doing good. The ball really gets going once you get your first 100k prestige and can repeatedly re-roll mythstones to get them to 15k. A thing to know that I didn't for the longest time, you don't *have* to use what the reroll gives you. If it rerolls into something worse you can tap the original one to keep it.

So do you just stop leveling the other dudes you bring in once you have the skills you want for them and focus entirely on your damage dealer? The way I've been playing is evenly allocating XP across everybody, basically leveling each person one at a time.

axelblaze posted:I'm starting to feel the same way about Almost a Hero, though I'm at 525. It just gets annoying when you get to the point where your team is just constantly getting instantly wiped out over and prestiging doesn't even make you come close to getting another Mythical artifact. Still, I'll give it a few more times around at least. That's about when I stopped playing AAH too. The experience wasn't passive enough at that point and I really had to actively play and attend to it when trying to speed through runs. And if I wasn't rushing through using the speed items it felt like I was wasting my time.

I eventually got kind of hooked and ended up staying up into the wee hours of the morning getting my guys leveled up.

I'm still playing Tap Wizard, it's very hands off and a game you can have running at your desk and interact with it once every now and then which I think is why I like it so much. It's pretty great, although I'm definitely in the backend of the game now and things have for sure slowed down. I'm done with it now but I played Idle Apocalypse for a while there, it also has a nontraditional take on the tapping thing, only tapping in short bursts to charge your generator which then runs for a while before powering down. There's kind of a materials grind in that one where you produce mats to make creatures who get you advanced mats that you need to make advanced creatures, etc.

I'm late to the party I know, but in my quest to play all of the goddamn idlers/clickers I just picked up Egg, Inc for the first time and this game's pretty good! It seems simple enough so far but has been pretty fair doling out the premium currency. Is there anything I should consider paying for in this game? I saw the $5 upgrade for the silos to let you collect more while away but getting 2 hours from the two silos you can buy seems alright for now so I wasn't sure.

Been playing AdVenture Communist. It's a good one of those games if you want to play one of those games! Seems like it's not totally finished yet because there's an icon with a spaceship on it that says "Coming soon" so who knows when that's coming but I've been enjoying watching the numbers go up. Also it's got this guy: Edit: I must say some of the "references" for characters in this game are very strange. And none of them really have much of anything to do with communism so I have no idea what they're doing in the game.

nessin posted:Anyone have a favorite time killer tap game? I used to play Tap Titans 2 but I recently switched phones and when I loaded the my save via their account system it had lost all my pet progress and I don't particularly care enough to fight to retrieve it or build back up. Been playing Adventure Communist lately, there's less to "do" than in TT2 (which is a weird thing to say) but the numbers do go up! Looks like they're still adding more too, there's a menu option with a spaceship on it that's greyed out with a "Coming soon" message. Alternatively, if you haven't played it yet Tap Wizard is a good one. There's less tapping then you would think going by the name but it's a fun little idler. I got bored with it in the late, late game because you're grinding foreeeeever for upgrades and it got too long in-between unlocks to keep me interested but I played it for a good bit there.

Freezer posted:I liked previous Kingdom Rush games but was really disappointed by the amount of IAP present, it almost felt like a F2P game. My frustration came from the feeling that some of the more difficult levels were designed to be beatable only if you shelled out for the IAP, which is in instant turnoff for me since it means skill or strategy probably can't solve the problem. This is kind of where I'm at. If I'm buying in from the start I don't want to also be given options to pay more money to make things go faster or unlock heroes. If it's possible to unlock these guys through regular gameplay and it's easy enough to ignore that's fine, but if they're either so impossibly difficult to unlock that you *have* to buy them or they just straight up can't be gotten without paying for then that loving sucks.

Seriously though with these reviews for Kingdom Rush Vengeance why are there so many people saying "Ironhide has done it again!" or something along those lines like they're copy/pasted from a script.

Man, I downloaded Brawl Stars over the weekend and.. it's actually a lot of fun? Maybe it's just because I haven't lost a match yet but I'm having a real good time. Matches are short too so I can get one in while poopin' or play a bunch in bed before going to sleep. I remember feeling this way about Clash Royale before making it to the tiers where clearly everyone bought everything and getting my rear end beat repeatedly so I'm sure I'll reach that point here eventually.
