Antimatter Dimensions is being active during a certain period until you figure how to idle it more efficiently. So at first with the antimatters proper and getting some IPs to set up the autobuyers, then Breaking Infinity and expanding with Infinity Dimensions to balance your IP/min statistics, reaching Replicantis and expanding the IDs and then infinity infinities to Eternity, unlocking Time Dimensions and retroactively affecting everything else.

So it is one number that affects another that affects another and so on.

It helps a bit to follow this guide, at least because of some sections where the game would punch you in the nuts if you were unprepared. It's not exactly a "follow exactly these steps and get this exact outcome" like Realm Grinder, more like a "If you are around this point, doing this is going to help"

https://antimatter-dimensions.fandom.com/wiki/Guide

There isn't much to miss or mess up until around you Break Infinity, but some of the challenges prior can be a headache and the ones after can be somewhat mindboggling.

Android: I'm playing Tap Tap Evil Mastermind and it revels in the sensory overload design of games. The pixel art is pretty good and the sound design is all rewarding beeps and boops, some of the tracks even being oddly reminiscing of GBC Pokemon games.

There are some lull moments in the game, yea.

Did you mean the Normal Challenges? Infinity Dimensions and Infinity Challenges blow up your IP/min pretty hard but I have no idea what upgrades you're buying.

Also, check if a quick Crunch is really the most profitable you can do. Let a run go for around ~5min and see what the peak IP/min you reach is, then set your autobuyer to cut it at that point. At this point, you have a Statistics option that shows your last 10 infinities - as well as other info - that helps with the balancing.

Thanks for the help, I do have some infinity upgrades already purchased, I was able to save up 2e7 IP with enough time so I have the first 3 of the two columns purchased already. I think I have to separate myself from thinking that faster runs = better gains. I guess I'm not even really positive what it is I'm doing that makes the IP go up and why longer runs would make that happen.

"Short runs: Automatic Dimboosts set to 0/10, Automatic Galaxies set to 1, Automatic Big Crunch set to how much you make in 0.5-1.5 seconds. "

I see stuff like this on the guide you posted which kind of helps but I don't quite understand the "Dimboosts 0/10" part. Is that "Max 8ths - 0 / galaxies required 10"? I feel like I am setting them up according to those recommendations and nothing happens.

There are some elements of the game that will click on you at some point but are terribly explained - and frankly, very obtuse.

That means your dimboosts will happen as soon as they're available. The limiter will be how many galaxies you can reach right now; If you chose 10 galaxies but you can't reach that number, the autobuyer won't Dimboost and you'll get stuck.

Take the autobuyer recommendations from the wiki with a grain of salt, they're mostly a point of reference than a rule; Tune more or fewer galaxies or slower or faster crunches depending on your current settings.

I'm giving it a try right now, got a little stumped but since enemies don't have armor - yet at least - I'm running a stacked Warrior and a Cleric and seeing how that goes.

That went terribly, balanced build it is.

Ignatius M. Meen posted:

I don't believe enemies get armor, but the scaling ensures they don't need it. Shield warrior and cleric work well enough to get you to 16, but you'll get prestige before you reach 20.

e: ah yeah, word of warning - if you get to level 2 prestige, it resets level 1 prestige buys along with the other stuff level 1 prestige resets. So be a little a careful about prestiging when the game alerts you that you will earn some higher-level prestige soon.

cheers

I started NGU a few weeks ago, got bored, played a little bit again today. So I've got like 15 days on, and I'm still in the forest:

I understand literally nothing, and am not really seeing what I should be doing at this point, besides getting my basic training energy requirements lower.

You are somewhat limited in the early game. If you are in the Forest then you should be doing these:

- Dropping equipment pieces from Adventure and getting them to Level 100; one entire Set will give you a nice bonus(you can hover over an item in the Item List to see what they are)

- Rebirthing every 30 min or 60 min depending on how active you are; this will boost your Energy Cap and lower your Basic Training requirements

- Spend Exp on your Energy Power for the Augments and enough on Speed to get you to 50 with your Equipment bonus. You won't have Speed bonus forever but by that point you'll have enough Exp to reach 50 naturally.

- After you've made some progress, consider some of the more significant - and costlier - purchases: Auto Merge and Basic Loot Filter are a good start.

There are more helpful players in the Goon's Channel on the Discord if you want to chat up with people directly.

Huh?

The only one worth wearing is the Ascended x6 one, all the other variants are way outpaced by the other gear you have by the time you are able to get some more levels on your newest pendant.
And the only reason Ax6 is worth wearing is at that stage of the game you no longer need NGU speed from accessories

I just got the Ascended Ascended and never took the previous one off unless I needed to boost my EP.

I'm having a hard time with two things:

First, Adventuring is very hit or miss, sometimes literally. My Mana doesn't last long enough for my spells to carry me very far and equipment seem sparse. Do I just keep running the same one again and again hoping to get a new trinket?

Second, Codices are a pain in the rear end to craft, is there any way to automatize that?

Only do 1 of each Challenge for the first completion bonus and then forget about them until you can finish one in less than 20min. The progression at this point isn't much different from what you - probably - already did before, max your set and put some Adv Training until you can idle the 2D Universe. Spend some Exp on getting your Cap high enough to Auto Activate the first three fruits and then back on Power and Bars as usual.

At this point, you might want to adjust your Rebirth to be as long as your fruit takes to grow, preferably the Fruit of Adventure for its permanent bonus. The Ygg goal right now is getting the Pom autoactivate so it can feed the rest of the fruits.

NGU Adventure? The exploder enemies are Power checks, if they're getting you then you still need more stats.

You'll need to pump it pretty high for UUG as well, no reason not to begin here.

edit: and pump the Time Machine then eat Fruits of Gold for your Diggers. Any that gets a level up gives a bonus to all the others.
