Wait, what 10^100 fortune upgrades? I'm at 100 locks too and the only e+100 thing I've ever seen is the Warp-Reality Converter Win Type Epsilon.
Just the Star Coin. There's one every ^3 or whatever, and the arbitrary milestone I picked was ^100. But yeah, Win Type Epsilon was my milestone to stop, I just reset, bought everything and let it run until I bought the attendant Coin.

(apparently they go until like 125? That's unreal.)

When do you reset coin collector the first time?

When you hit the fortune coin wall. There was a point for me when I had to reset to get enough for the next lock.

This thread got me back into Cookie Clicker - I have a soft spot for that one because it's so polished and was really the first one I played. I tried catgame for a bit and then decided it was bollocks and not a true idle game due to the caps on resources.

Anyway, I discovered last night that once you have 5000 heavenly chips in CC you can switch season at will and get all the seasonal upgrades and achievements. Should hit that marker tonight, woooo!

So what does the Gold Ring in Coin Collector do? I think my Coins Per Second is increasing faster, is that it?

It needs tweaking, but it's not massive tweaking. Mostly just renaming hitwall to hityoshi and that.

Reset until you have all but the last trophy unlocked, approximately.

Do note that the later ring empowers are each much weaker than the previous one.

Welp, was about to hit 2000 newspapers when my computer froze. Started things up again, and for some reason the music I'd turned off was now playing again after weeks of not doing so.

Turns out all my progress had been reset. Entirely. Guess that's as good a reason as any to quit "playing".

Turns out if you drop the creator an email he'll send you an import code for roughly the amount of AI you had before your save disappeared! ryan at hyperhippo dot ca if you want it

Okurrrr?
Clicker Heroes just updated yesterday. They've removed gold increase and skill cooldown from hero souls and implemented a system called "Ancients". You buy them and level them up with your banked hero souls to get permanent upgrades like increasing DPS while idle and reducing hero purchase/level up gold cost.

Don't do like me and spend all of your hero souls getting your skill cooldown and gold increase ancients levelled up back to the cap or you'll find yourself struggling to hit level 100 all over again.

It's a good update that adds some variety to what was previously a pretty flat "numbers go up" clicker.

It's so easy to be screwed by the RNG in what ancients you get offered though. You either spend a ton of hero souls rerolling to get the ones that are clearly on an entirely higher tier of usefulness, or get lucky right off the bat. The exponential rising cost for each new ancient doesn't help matters either.

FadedReality
Sep 5, 2007

Okurrrr?
Yeah, I got lucky and got the two that were removed from hero soul accumulation so now I'm just going to buy one each reset and level them up gradually so I don't gently caress myself over again. It's really annoying going from having 2400% DPS boost to 40% boost :negative:

Yeah I managed to respec from my mucking about in the test version and got a nearly ideal set of ancients to start off. the idle gold one, the two treasure chest ones (spawn chance and amount of gold), cooldowns one, and hero level up cost reduction.

If it didn't work out though I'd be down 25% of my souls, AND still have a cruddy bonus setup.

So wall destroyer wasn't loading correctly for people for a little while and then my save reset. Did this happen to anyone else? I'm kind of pissed, I'd just gotten to the 9th bonus wall.

Yeah, I've lost my Wall save too. Seems to be the day for it. The Swarm Sim one also had an update that wiped my save. At least that has a warning saying that it'll do that sometimes so that was no big deal.

So I've gotten back into Cookie Clicker and I'm trying to figure out how to get the Mathematician achievement. The only help I've found is from before prisms were a thing.

Ignatius M. Meen

Hello yes I heard there was a lovely trainwreck here and...

The requirements for it? 1 prism, 2 antimatter condensers, 4 time machines, 8 portals, 16 alchemy labs, 32 shipments, 64 mines and 128 of everything else. Note that the text says "1 of the most expensive building..." so that if there were any new building types inserted into the mix, like say something more expensive than prisms, you'd just adjust the requirements by one place.

I got stuck with just few enough hero souls after the clicker heroes update that I had to reset in order to afford 75% cooldown reduction. I've only just gotten back to the level I was at.

How many angels did you have at the end?

I've got 100 tredecillion and I think I'll have to wait two months to get those last 3 upgrades. Everything else is fully upgraded and all achievements have are done.

Do I reset when I get 999 tredecillion? :(

God drat I'm so far away!

Just keep resetting when your angels double and you'll have it relatively quickly.

For those of you up to/finished with the Ad Cap endgame, at about which point do you start getting the last two Investor upgrades? I'll have 27 tredecillion AEs on next reset; I'm just wanting to make sure I don't put myself into an inescapable death spiral this late in the game.

Basically the second you can afford them, they'll increase your income by more than having the investors would.

About 700 tredecillion and you can get everything quite easily.

Get ...In Darkest Night (x5) when you are over 1.25 tredecillion AI, at least, so that you don't lose any income. Just make sure you get a significantly more before the next reset: since each AI takes a little more than the last one, you'll end up losing out if you just keep resetting at about that point or if you just double the 250 duodecillion you now have.

The Good News (+50 newspapers) is worth it at 4 tredecillion if that gets you to the next 100, since that will get you the Newspaper and Everything (I assume) achievements, which will double your income plus some.

In short, get them.
