If you mean you got 1 octillion gems or whatever hanging out on the blue abdication button, then you have to abdicate first before you can reincarnate. If you mean you already got however many gems in hand you can reincarnate whenever you're ready. Speaking of which, you should know that reincarnating resets your gems to 0 so if you have something you want to do before having to rebuild your haul you better hold off on reincarnating until you've done it.

I did this and could have stopped it, but nothing in nature ever follows a gaussian curve. Sure, they'll tell you that it does. They say that every five minutes someone dies in a car accident, but how often are there seven hundred and sixty one armless and legless corpses in one hangar?
I've been playing Shark Game here at work for a few weeks now. This is the best. I am a great shark, I tell dolphins to gently caress off, I'm friends with all the crabs and rays, goddamn.

My ancestors are rad as gently caress.

Shark Game is legit the best.

I have 1 octillion+ right now, I'm wondering if there are any benefits to having higher gems when reincarnating and if so do I need to abdicate first to lock those in

My wife got me to start playing Clicker Heroes and join her guild. As an avid fan of making numbers go up, I am enjoying this game.

They just released Transendence last week which is basically a super-Ascension. It takes many regular Ascensions to make one good Transendence. The bonuses from it are pretty bonkers, especially one that gives a global percent bonus to all other idle bonuses, so it makes your future ascension cycles much faster.

Also that shark game is pretty awesome.

I might try to get back into Shark Game. I played it for a while, then dropped away and forgot all about it, then came back and had no idea what the gently caress was going on. Maybe I'll just reset the save.

I played it a while ago and had no idea what the gently caress was going on even then.
The first planet is fine but then you prestige and suddenly you have all kinds of weird resources and no idea how they work together and it all seems a bit random and hectic.

They're great even on their own. I just got the 3rd Winter upgrade and now the Hailstorm spell lasts for 4 minutes and ticks up to like 200,000%.

Just need to wait for a full stack of flame orbs for the feat and I can switch to Summer.

That strange blue sea comes in about 8 different flavors, from what I have seen so far.

As you "reset", different worlds can play differently. I had one where I had to manage my income against an ever-increasing amount of sludge that would start killing off all of my units. I'd get to a good position and then suddenly realize the production unit I just bought tipped the scale and now hundreds of sharks are eating it each second.

They can also be beneficial, like innate resource gains, and some have different resources than others. There hasn't been too much to grasp, and when I get confused, the Grotto helps break it all down.

Thank you. Now I got some Realm Grinder questions

1) I've taken the summer alliance and bought one upgrade. If I abdicate/reincarnate do I have to buy them again? Do I keep all my orbs? Should I just wait until I've bought all three summer upgrades so I can get the feat?

2) How does scrying work? It's never worked once for me. Turned off my adblockers and all that, and the ad never plays. Any idea what's going on with it?

1) Your orbs are still gone, but any alliance or upgrade you've already bought with orbs is free after any abdications/reincarnations.

2) Your experience is the same as mine.

Sometimes the ads are just straight broken and refuse to work, and since it tends to select the same ad for you over a certain period of time you're just poo poo out of luck. Normally it plays a 20second ad and then tells you to go back and claim your reward.

The reward for this one is good as its a free 48 orbs, 24 of each colour over a 4hr period.

so, what's the build for beating dwarf challenge 3 (the one where you have to get 100,000 faction coins with one tax collection)?

I'm resurrection 27, feels like I definitely should have been able to unlock it by now, but I've been trying elf with elf bloodline, and I'm maxing out about 80k. Have I missed something obvious? Don't have research for dwarves yet, so can't do that, but still

Im pretty sure it's fairy, max buildings, fairy chanting, tax collection

It's 198. Doesn't take that long but it's not like there's anything interesting that happens after you max it, either.

More Realm Grinder stuff: What's the best combo with prestige factions? Just unlocked Dwarves and the combo with Angels was kinda poo poo but with Elves my gem gain exploded (especially if I can be assed to use an autoclicker for a bit).

E: Holy poo poo that Hall of Fame upgrade, just went from 650 Qi to 6 Sp gems.

Honestly half the time I have no idea what I'm doing. After a few prestiges you realize you just make numbers go up, then figure out what ressource you have the most of and then recycle that into everything else you need for the grotto. :v:

Are you using a solid build for your dwangels?

I have been using dwangels exclusively since that was possible (R27?) and until now at R39, and no other combination has come close to dwangel performance.
Admittedly i haven't played RG since early this year and things might have changed.

Hows the runescape idle clicker game?

Gandor
Apr 22, 2008
I'm really digging it but they are doing wipes every time they update it so I got a few days of play out of it before petering out since I know all my progress will be gone soon. It's got some neat, unique ideas for an idler especially the combat system, you can swap in and out skills at will during a fight depending on your needs -- enemies seem to have a rock/paper/scissors weakness system where you'll either do half, full, or double damage depending on if you're hitting them with melee ranged or magic. The only downside is that babysitting is built into the game as when you get enough exp to level up a skill then you will stop gaining exp until you click on that skill to actually level it up. The quest system is nice and gives you a sense of accomplishment although the dialogue is hit or miss depending on your sense of humor.

Overall I'd say it's a good game to play in the background, and it would be ideal for a phone game for sure. I didn't even look at the f2p stuff but it's only in early access so things could easily change and it could become a lot grindier, but at least early on I didn't have any trouble making progress but I can see the combat heavy quests being a bit of a slog though since you have to manually click to start each wave of enemies.

You can spend real money to make numbers go up faster. Guess the fun-level.

I don't recommend it at all and regret every minute i played.


Edit: I should mention the most fun part. The quests. Do Action X, Y times. Your actions take from 2 seconds to 12 minutes (in the beginning, didn't play much further). So either you play really passive and don't care for quests at all and finish them slooooowly or you try to juggle the the actions, having the right one active at the right time.
If you ascend you get to do all the quests again! Yay. Doing magic 5 more loving times, I can't wait!

I'm really going to miss this event in realm grinder. Thanks to the Summeraan alliance I'm able to get the faction coins to fully upgrade any build in a few seconds. It's made cruising through my first 11 reincarnations super easy this weekend.

I guess normally you would do it using excavations? I guess I'll have to stop doing buy max on those and ration them out more.

This is literally true and not a figure of speech. It is insane how much faster the game is now. It took like 10 seconds to get to world 16000, which took hours on the web version.

Thanks!
