If you're willing to bank an absurd amount of cookies, like a few orders of magnitude more than you need for frenzy + lucky, I could see red cookies being more valuable than golden cookies. Otherwise, stick with the goldens.

At really high levels, click frenzy probably outpaces everything else, since it scales pretty much directly with your banked cookies, while buildings get less and less efficient (in terms of cost/CpS) later on. If my calculations are correct, the 100th AC would take 14.7 years (or 921 frenzied luckies) to pay for itself. Alternately, if you kept the 4 quadrillion cookies in the bank that you would have spend on that 100th AC, you could get around 700 trillion cookies per cookie chain, which would get you another 4 quadrillion in about 6 cookie chains, or 100 red cookies.

Covenant of course is always awful; never Covenant except for one last cheevo when you get fed up with your run and decide it's time to reset for HCs.

I should at least say that covenant is worthwhile if you're autoclicking gold cookies and idling over long periods of time, since gold cookies are so, so good. But if you're playing the game all manually then yeah covenant is awful.

This will auto-buy Pledges and auto-click Goldens:

code:
setInterval(function() {
    if (Game.UpgradesInStore.indexOf(Game.Upgrades["Elder Pledge"]) != -1) Game.Upgrades["Elder Pledge"].buy();
    if (Game.goldenCookie.life > 0) Game.goldenCookie.click();
}, 100);

Wrath cookies are still worth clicking, especially if you're using an autoclicker. They're just terrible in comparison to regular golden cookies.

Sounds like you just like white chocolate. Red velvet is gross, shameful imitation of chocolate, a putrid relic left over from world war 2 rationing. I'm sorry your taste buds don't work, or that you don't know any better. If there was something I could do to fix you, and everyone else who agrees with you, I would.

Uh so I decided to try my hand at red cookies and the 4th one was a cookie chain and yeah I just made my last AC + the upgrade and a couple of the 25% cookies. Hot drat that is nice. The meantime is kinda boring because you basically lose all the cookies you earn in between to clots and ruins but :stare: that was a shitload of cookie.

Everything in Cookie Monster is relative. If shipments are red now, it's because there's better value to be had elsewhere. Once the value elsewhere dries up, it'll recommend buying shipments again.

The people saw each other divided on dough products with confectioneries occasionally laced in. Cries of "They're not pure!" rang out among those in separate camps. Some saw the plain sugar cookie as the golden ideal, a flawless disc of perfection. Others preached the inclusion of fruit and were outcast from society.

It wasn't the foul green cookie that did us in. No, no one would touch it.
