you can also long-press on pretty much anything in the game and get a detailed explanation of what it is and what it does. it's definitely a pain in the rear end at first but i'm at r70 and only ever used the mobile version so it's not impossible to learn.

Axiem posted:I'm...not really sure what you mean by this? Should I not just get every upgrade and get as many of each building as I can? In the meantime, yeah, you're just getting upgrades and buildings as it goes to reach the gem prestige threshold. Try out the different races, some of them are better than others at different gem levels - Goblins for instance are good at high gem levels, while Elves are good for getting faction coins at the start without having to click all day.

I'm wrapping up unlocking all the stuff in the first round of research on R16, am I about to go on another roller coaster ride like when I first unlocked mercs?

Axiem posted:I'm currently working on getting Drow and Dwarves, but it's quite a slog for either of them. Like Ghostlight said, you'll later get the ability to mix and match upgrades, and Druid has a lot of little things that're used for builds that people do. You should probably just buy every upgrade right now, I can't think of a reason unless you're going for a specific trophy. quote:That probably explains why Faceless is the only faction that gets me in the e40's ranges. I typed up a lot of stuff about each of the factions, then copied it over to a text document to flesh out. I'll post it in a day or two when I can go over it and make it a good primer for RG, this thread doesn't really have one that I know of. In the mean time, If you're stuck at a gem amount in R0, I would just go titan and cast lightning strike 2-4 times, buying the upgrades, heritages, and royal exchanges (last) when you can, it'll increase your gem count by 10-100 times in 20 minutes, probably.

Axiem posted:I've tried finding some guides, but they all seem to assume some entry-level knowledge I'm simply lacking in, or want me to do random things to get trophies, and I'm still in the phase of "I still don't understand why people say this game has depth. How do I shot web?" Some of the reason why they're pushing you to get trophies is that a hell of a lot of the more interesting trophies (particularly the ones called secret trophies) each have an associated upgrade to them. Some of those upgrades are really quite good. For example, you may say to yourself "why would I bother with speedrunning the game for the speed run trophy?" and the answer is "so that when you're first starting out an abdication you're clicking for a million coins each time instead of one coin each time" because of the upgrade it unlocks. Another example is the Mathematician secret trophy which gives another nice upgrade. If you haven't already gotten that one you're not too far off from getting it (the hardest part is the 1024 farms, going fairies with high enough gems takes care of that). Drow themselves aren't popular at that point in the game to actually use, but you need to have them unlocked in order to get, say, the Premeditation secret trophy, which has an upgrade increasing your max mana by 200 (and you can use that upgrade as any faction once it's unlocked, not just when playing evil/drow). A lot of the game is like that - you alternate between coin/gem grinding and doing one or another one-off task, perhaps less immediately gem-profitable, for the sake of permanently unlocking a useful mechanic or option or upgrade. Emron posted:I'm wrapping up unlocking all the stuff in the first round of research on R16, am I about to go on another roller coaster ride like when I first unlocked mercs? Yeah, once you finish with all those R16 unlocks you basically sail through effortlessly into the low R20s or so. A lot of the unlocks in the next few reincarnations (you get access to more researches with more RP, and your RP cap rises with each R) are basically "have both researches X and Y already unlocked" with no additional requirement of their own, so it goes pretty fast.

A tip for getting the 10k spells required for Drow: they don't need to be evil spells, so you can go into Angels, get all of their mana regen upgrades, then just have Tax Collection autocast over night and you'll have more than enough for them.

Awesome. I've only got the 750 fairy chanting and 666 hellfire blasts ones left, so I figure letting it go overnight should wrap up this reincarnation. I appreciate that things change so dramatically, mechanics-wise. It's like there are chapters to this game that each radically shift the way you play it. I'm glad it's not like "run that titan/fairies mercy build until your eyes bleed"

I've been scouring through the Reddit and Kongregate forums on Realm Grinder regarding the 1e29 wall at R45. I've read through threads discussing builds to overcome the hurdle (perhaps outdated?), but they do not specifically address the wall itself. I've been stuck at Xe29 gems for about.... 4-5 days using Titans. If I were to abdicate as of this post, I'd be at about 5e29 gems. I can get to 1e28 within a few hours, and then the grind starts. Am I doing something wrong? I'm using the Titan ~ Olympian Hall R42+ build listed here.

Casting multiple Call to Arms at once makes W180 extremely, extremely powerful. Gem Grinder also gets massively stronger as you add tiers.

Revolution Idle linked a few pages ago with the spinning circles is interesting. You upgrade your circles so they spin faster and give you more currency to spend. There is also a compounding factor making your currency/sec increase all the time. Once you have upgraded a certain circle enough you can ascend it, resetting it to 0 but making each upgrade more powerful There is also a prestige where you reset all your circles but get an additional multiplier to the compounding. Aparently there are more features to unlock later but i have not gotten that far yet. Do not play the game in Firefox though. The game will slow your entire PC to a halt eventually resulting in a Blue Screen of Death. I got 2 BSODs in a couple of hours when playing on Firefox. I cannot remember the last time i got a literal BSOD, maybe a decade ago or so?

AreWeDrunkYet posted:What's the sweet spot for prestiging in Egg, Inc? It depends on whether you've done all the missions or not I think. Once you've done all those, you get trophies to work towards instead for having X amount of chickens for each egg type. They give you a ton of Soul and Gold Eggs. Most of my Soul Eggs came from there, so really I guess it's whatever works for you to do the missions and trophies.

So if you come back in a couple days, you can do 5 seconds of speeding, buy up next round of upgrades, 5 second of speeding, etc. It gives you a whole lot of it, too.

Which "Promotion" should i do first in Revolution Idle? They all seem very lackluster, only increasing revolution time by 1,73 for example (isn't that just a 73% increase in currency?) whereas prestiging have given me around 100 times increased currency every time i have done it. Prestiging has stagnated something fierce now though, a full day and my multiplier is only doubled.

It is pretty drat fast once you get that first promotion. Unfortunately there's not any new mechanics after rebirth so how long the game keeps your interest just depends on how long it takes until you get bored of the same thing over and over.

I went until I had all the circles solid and decided that was victory (after 3 or 4 rebirths). Rebirthing over and over again just for levels didn't seem particularly compelling. Fun while it lasted though.

Got to the Population grind in Mine Defense and I feel like it's going slowly. Is there anything I can do to accelerate my Steel production beyond making shitloads of Baggers and Rock Golems (trading post dirt to stone and produce stone) to upgrade the Smelting Pit? Before unlocking whatever comes at 50 population, I mean. I know there are upgrades at 1m Baggers and Titans that I don't have yet, but my alchemists are working on it.
