So I'm creeping up on Evil in NGU atm, is there a checklist of what you should do before switching over?

Alright cheers! I haven't got the Power Pill or the Gerbil maxed yet though, will proceeding to Evil remove access to The Beast until I get back to Chocolate World?

Pope Guilty posted:No, all Normal titans remain accessible as long as you're not below the relevant boss level in Normal. Think of it as every boss in Evil being above the final boss in Normal. Ah, so it's kind of like a separate mode altogether?

So Evil is pretty slow, huh. What is the first major milestone to aim for? Right now I am just slowly climbing upwards with 30 min rebirths.

OJ MIST 2 THE DICK posted:You should probably start a basic challenge chain a couple of rebirths to get to 58 and get a boost to adventure mode stats. Alright, I'll see if I can do that, though I am mostly gaining around 4-5 levels per rebirth as it is, and I bet that's gonna slow down soon as well. Cheers!

So I'm still fairly eary on in Evil (doing the basic challenges), and I've noticed that while the Evil NGUs are pretty strong, they are also incredibly slow. Is it better to just continue building up the normal NGUs for now and leave the evil ones for when I can complete them within a reasonable timeframe?

Man, when do questing start to speed up? Feels like it will take weeks before I can grab some of the evil quirks at this rate.

NGU question: Does move cooldown reducing equipment affect idle attacks at all? I'm guessing no? Also, will the later bestiary entries ever be added in a future patch?

I'm almost at Greasy Nerd(or well, at around boss 110 in Evil atm, things are going slow), and I still can't max out all normal NGU's. I think some old-timers might overestimate how quick the climb is these days compared to before. I've also spent practically all my EXP on EM.

So if anyone is playing Grim Clicker here, when you reach the second galaxy, how much corruption do you usually go for on each shard? I went with about x20 for the first one, then raised it to x40 for the second since it had an "Every hit is critial" modifier, and now I'm trying out x30 on the third one. Just wondering what a nice balance is.

Thanatosian posted:I recently stopped playing, and I was considerably further along than you are (I got there before corruption was a thing), but I usually do zero on the first shard, then ramp up for further shards. Subsequent runs of the same shard after clearing it don't get the corruption multiplier, so I started to do more runs on the shards to build up wax multipliers to be able to run higher corruption on later shards; I haven't done the math so I don't know if it's optimal, but I was maxing for quite awhile every run and this seemed much faster as the corruption multipliers started to be a problem. Doesn't maxing corruption make the beginning of each shard absolutely miserable though? Before you can even make use of the flame power you build up.

Thanatosian posted:Yeah, there are ways of dealing as you get further along. Definitely would not recommend maxing early, and odds are, like, ever; I was waaaaaayyyyy ahead of where corruption started when I started doing corruption (like, Galaxy 40ish, reinstalled after a long break). I think the no-corruption first shard, make a few full runs to build up wax multiplier, then start ramping corruption as you continue should work about the same even at lower levels, though. Seems like a good rhythm. Cheers, thanks for the heads up, and yeah I've been using summons to start off each shard, but it's still pretty slow. Think I'm gonna continue doing x10/x20/x40 based on the shard I'm in. The first few shards in each galaxy also seems to be good for going high, since the insane monster scaling doesn't start until a few shards into each galaxy.

Dunno if anyone still plays Idle Champions here, but I just wanted to post the newest event champion, because they're pretty cute Literally 3 kobolds in a trench coat

Big Mad Drongo posted:I just checked this out because kobolds are cute and holy poo poo the lootbox/FOMO poo poo is vicious. Gear seems like a huge part of advancement and it's all randomized, and it's hard to gear event characters outside of their event. That said, the formation mechanic is really fun. Is this game even feasible F2P, or do I need to drop cash to get anywhere? Surprisingly, yes. Despite what the endless barrage of "WEEKLY DEALS" and "WILD OFFERS" wants you to believe. I recently started playing again after being on a hiatus for about 3 years since I last played it in the beta. I have not spent anything, and I have been able to finish 3 campaigns, made good progress on the fourth, unlocked all the base game and "evergreen" champions, and can fairly easily beat all event stages during events. They are pretty generous with both events (3 free champions and chests for them if you can finish their event stages), and giving out free chests (About 10-15 universal codes for gold/the new electrum chests gets given out on streams and podcasts every week, but you can just check the reddit or The Wiki Page since it gets updated regularly). You can also buy chests for gems, and get them randomly from drops. The two main elements that are restricted by real money are Familiars, which let you automate and idle more conveniently(you can get quite a few with gems, but they get expensive quickly), and gold equipment, which basically makes a certain equipment slot twice as effective. Useful, but you can do without them. Honestly, just grabbing all the codes from the wiki, and checking back there or with the reddit/forums for more codes once a week should last you a long while. Also, sign up for the newsletter for a very useful support champion. Protip: You can Ctrl+v the codes on the "unlock chest" screen. Edit: I do agree with Explosivo though, without a significant amount of familiars, it's more of a "Set off and check back every half an hour" kind of game. At least until you get further in, and then you can usually set it up to run for a couple of hours before needing to upgrade everything manually. I do recommend saving up 1000 gems for the first familiar asap though, it can be very useful. Broken Cog fucked around with this message at 17:56 on Feb 5, 2021 |

Blattdorf posted:Incremental Epic Hero has appeared on Steam, along with a big update. This is the first time I've ever heard of it, but apparently it had been out for a long time on Kongregate before it released on Steam. From what little I've played, it seems to be a keeper. Hey, I played this back on Kongregate before it died. It's definitely worth a try. Always felt kinda bad for these devs releasing their game on kongregate like a month before the shut down message. Edit: If I remember correctly (and they haven't changed it), start as angel, as they get a really good farming skill you can transfer to the other characters Edit2: Or warrior. I only remember that you should never start as mage Broken Cog fucked around with this message at 23:13 on Feb 23, 2021 |

Yeah I've never savescummed either, and I made fine progress back then. Think I might have hit the content wall, even. Btw, here's a bonus code I found in one of their patch notes: IEHsteam . You can enter them at the system screen

Arzaac posted:Yeah that boss is still there, though I guess I don't know how strong it used to be. It's still a significant hump though, and you either need to be good at bullet hells or farm up the golem shield to the point where it doesn't hurt much anymore. I don't think that's the one they're talking about. Back when the game was new, there was this one Magic slime miniboss that was basically a roadblock for the then End of Content. It was tuned so highly that it was a major pain to beat at the time. Edit: Also didn't help that the wizard was really bad back then, and was also basically the only character that could deal damage to that boss.

New Yorp New Yorp posted:Of course, Javascript is an awful language that's probably harder for a complete beginner to pick up. C# is a lot friendly because it's type safe and uses a much saner object oriented inheritance model. Typescript is a good in-between choice, I'd recommend that over straight JS. I'd argue JS is actually easier to get into as a complete beginner. It's just harder to transition to/from other programming languages because of all the insane poo poo it pulls.

Nea posted:So far it doesn't seem like there's any benefit to doing higher tiers of the isopod? Maybe that's related to features i haven't unlocked yet, or maybe it silently makes rewards on all floors better based on highest floor. It definitely increases rewards the higher you go. Question remains if it's worth going as high as you can vs just staying somewhere where every fight doesn't take half a minute.

Can recommend upgrading the first relic as far as you reasonably can, it really softens the amount of cardboard and glue you need later on. Edit: also surrounding Flesh Rockets and Flesh-Assisted Reactive Transport Solutions with as many efficiency beacons as possible. Broken Cog fucked around with this message at 19:06 on Apr 9, 2021 |

NGUI: Anywhere I can see my rewards from the Muslukk pit? Also, you start getting some actually decent rewards, like +40% tier 2 flesh production and stuff, later on, so it's absolutely worth chucking in your spare resources (that you are done with, don't chuck in high-tier mats).

I've had Candy Jello 2 unlocked for about a week now, but the most recent upgrade is "Improve Candy Jello 1 production". Does it have something to do with the ISOPOD? Huh, how far are you into the ISOPOD, because I am almost at candy 3, and I don't have the Jello 1 production upgrade. Edit: I am at level 383 for reference

Melvor Idle is the Runescape skill system without the gameplay. Like, literally, that is what the dev went for. I found it pretty boring myself, but there's apparently a lot of people that love it.

Already dawning on me why I stopped playing cookie clicker all those years back, there really isn't all that much new stuff to do once you ascend a couple of times. by the time you get reasonable offline progress, you have pretty much seen most of what the game has to offer.
