I have a decent haul after not looking at this for almost a year, the top row's maxed out (except for the rich jerks thing), and I bought all of the inventory/accessory spaces and one of the gold digger slots. Everything else kinda blurs together though, so I'm not sure where my points will have the most impact. Get the Crappy Perk. It pays dividends forever. Dividends of poo.

MrTargetPractice posted:Does the random +to speed bonuses (Time Machine, Augmentations, NGU etc) actually do anything if you're already able to cap them out? Reduces how much you need to cap them. Also, TM, Augs, and NGU keep gradually requiring more Energy and/or Magic to cap as they increase in level, so you can keep them capped longer.

DACK FAYDEN posted:Challenges I'm at 45/25/20/18/6/6 on tax and 0 on the other reincarnations, research I'm down to edit: 5 seconds per auto obtainium and pouring it all into that but I maxed out the first tax- one above it, the second tier of free accelerators and multipliers on the left, the building power 1% in the middle, dipped into the first building scaling a little. I'm at 7/4/2/1/1 challenges, and I've gotten the 1e42 Mythos upgrade. I seem to be walled at the existing challenge levels, so what else should I be doing right now?

Rynoto posted:Minimum of softcap which is 250 base. Once above softcap it depends if you want to immediately move to 3* runs or not - if you do then keep going with MADs and pick up all the craftsmen upgrades at least, and the first two challenge upgrades. Only spend plasmids above 250. That will set you up to start 3* Bioseeds with a decent amount of mastery which will in turn raise your plasmid softcap. What are 3* runs and challenge upgrades?

Rynoto posted:One of the tech unlocks is for CRISPR which is the primary reset currency spending area. You'll spend a few plasmids there to unlock challenges which allows you to start adding modifiers onto runs for more mastery which give larger multipliers to production.

Rynoto posted:Do some 0* Bioseeds for cap as plasmids scale hard for a long while and spend excess plasmids for the crispr upgrades then swap to 3* MADs til ~30% mastery. That'll set you up to Blackhole out of standard. See, I haven't bioseeded yet, but I just got the last Craftsmen plasmid upgrade, and was going to jump into 3* MADs like your original suggestion if you hadn't explained this. Thanks! About how much of the Bioseed currency should I get (and what will that bump the Plasmid softcap to) before I swap over? Are there any other super important upgrades to get besides the challenge/achievement powerup ones, the first storage one, and the craftsmen ones?

Geez setting up to bioseed is difficult and takes a long time. I'm so close I don't want to stop because of sunk cost, but at the same time I feel like it'd be easier to just nuke everything and get the plasmids. I wonder if it's my fault for not getting more permanent stuff before I aimed for it.

See, I can buy Iridium reasonably. The problem I'm having is keeping up enough of an Alloy supply; my Alloy constantly craters when I have anything that requires Mythril and Alloy often ends up being almost as expensive to purchase, if not more so, than Iridium, so I'm not sure what the hell I'm supposed to do about it.

Lilli posted:Just started playing evolve recently and I ended up getting centaurs as my third race and they're absolutely miserable. The horseshoes are just so expensive and its just incredibly unfun to deal with. You can Soft Reset in the Settings to go back to the primordial ooze for a different race, I think, if you're not feeling it. You won't get any plasmids but it might be worth it if you're hating the run this much.

Right! I've been doing MADs with the occasional Bioseed sprinkled in. I've got a bunch of stuff from CRISPR now. Namely: The first two ranks of Creep perks Storage perks up to Spatial Supremacy Enhanced Muscle Fiber Morphogenesis and Recombination from the Evolve line All the Synthesis and Plasmid perks for easier mutation Replication (stuck on a Toxic planet, figured it was a good time to get it) All the Crafty perks The queue and Governor perks The challenge and Mastery-unlocking perks Ancients I also have 15.25% Mastery right now. So, my question now is "is it a good time to unlock Priests and Faith, or should I pop for the third cost creep perk instead?" ...Assuming the minor trait perks aren't also worth it.

Rynoto posted:So the CCR you get from crispr is a bit of a letdown if you plan to do 3*+ ever as Junk Gene reduces its effect to 1/5th. You'll still want them eventually but the plasmids are better spent elsewhere, for now. Based off your list I'd save for the last storage upgrade then stockpile ~2k plasmids (if you plan to go antimatter) while doing 3* mastery farming and blackholing out. Priests aren't worth it until much later when Theocracy becomes viable and population cap isn't an issue. Blackholing out? Is it time to go for that? I've only accomplished MAD with 16 out of 25 races needed for Mass Extinction.

Rynoto posted:Your first blackhole is just exiting the tutorial and with some 3* runs you'll be in the ~30% mastery range in no time which will make a 0-3* BH easy enough with the unlocks you already have.

Rynoto posted:Not really, although a 3* shouldn't be much slower than a 0* unless you're getting craftsman blocked. Phage, at least, continues to scale your plasmids very well up to 1000 or so before petering out so you'll keep getting faster from the increased softcap for a while. Is 18 craftsmen not enough? Then again, maybe I don't have enough Phage. I think I only have 30-something?

Welp, my mastery took a nice several percent jump after 3-Star Bioseeding some Toxic Trolls off an Elliptical Toxic Tundra planet into space. Sitting at 31% after engsmsploding the Phoenix civilization, once I reach 2k plasmids I'll probably aim for a black hole into Antimatter.
