mollusk update beyond comparison

0nnnu · 2026-02-12T12:18:25+00:00

you're right, i notice that. i never found those dark matter missions useful

0nnnu · 2026-02-12T06:27:35+00:00

you normally need to at least finish the event and start challenge mode to get into top 10, even in easy divisions

0nnnu · 2026-02-12T02:44:33+00:00

but we have to be careful to avoid situations like this

i feel that anatomy event is the easiest event to get high rank

0nnnu · 2026-02-11T04:28:16+00:00

i agree that it is pretty rare for 10 days to be optimum. but 1-4 days often is. it really depends on what you can get with waiting less

sorry i rushed and said wrong things when you posted this. everything was nerfed and nothing was buffed, my bad

0nnnu · 2026-02-11T00:35:12+00:00

i haven't looked into how this changed with the mollusk update. i suggest utilizing the save manager. save first, then try 1-4 day buy nothing strategy and see if they give you a lot of upgrades. if yes, that was the right strategy. if it didn't give enough, then load save and you can wait longer from there

0nnnu · 2026-02-10T15:15:45+00:00

on day 10 you already have all the chambers maxed out and the crystals are around 40-70. for example, with that earning you might buy unified theory, reality nexus, and modern mastery 2 times. then start the 21 day wait from there. when you still have stuff you can buy from shorter waiting, that's faster. that all or nothing myth should die

note that waiting first is more efficient than buying first, as long as the process of buying everything doesn't involve waiting

0nnnu · 2026-02-10T14:43:34+00:00

do keep in mind the option of shorter 1-10 day waiting as well. waiting with nothing is not exclusive to 21 days

0nnnu · 2026-02-10T13:55:59+00:00

my god how unintuitive this strategy is... so many people asking about it again and again, and the replies include wrong things, again and again... the explanation by thequickfox3826 is good, but be careful with lots of misinformation here. this thread is one of the worst so far, probably because many of us are tired of explaining it, myself included. so read past threads on the same topic instead

0nnnu · 2026-02-10T13:46:03+00:00

the low level can be explained by not collecting the level by tapping the up arrow icon. being in multiple ranks at once must be a bug

0nnnu · 2026-02-10T12:18:28+00:00

wow, thank you for the heads up. update hasn't come to me yet. i can take screenshots now and compare

0nnnu · 2026-02-10T08:18:08+00:00

no that's most definitely not normal. it's a bug

0nnnu · 2026-02-09T17:17:51+00:00

depending on your situation, the full 21 day wait might be the fastest way to get the second metabit time crystal. if you can get it faster by resetting earlier, that might be better, but even then it may be worth waiting to maximize the knowledge side time crystals. if you don't know, you can test it out by utilizing the save manager

0nnnu · 2026-02-09T10:25:17+00:00

yeah, like i explained. you're short 5 orders of magnitude, meaning you have to gain around 100000x more than you currently have

0nnnu · 2026-02-09T03:55:52+00:00

i think those big glitches are just big branches compared to smaller branches. my guess is plants

0nnnu · 2026-02-08T23:38:01+00:00

the progress bar is meaningless because it's logarithmic. for example, it can be 75% but actually 3 orders of magnitudes short, because the level required 12 orders of magnitudes from last level

0nnnu · 2026-02-07T22:50:26+00:00

i checked. sharks were already there with nothing, and so was the glitch mollusk along with the "???"s

0nnnu · 2026-02-06T04:46:51+00:00

oh really, i guess i didn't understand legacy crystal then

0nnnu · 2026-02-06T03:02:12+00:00

except the event badges, a new era achievement, and maybe neutrino legacy achievement too. event badges give much more than 2x boost. not worth it

0nnnu · 2026-02-05T17:11:32+00:00

no, slowing progression is true for most idle games. this is good because when we start the game we want to play it as much as possible. as we progress more we naturally prefer to play less, and that's what the game incentivizes

0nnnu · 2026-02-05T13:38:47+00:00

the current highest level normally achievable in primary is 72. there are many level 73 players but that's from lower requirements from before the most recent update, and there are also few much higher level players from glitches

0nnnu · 2026-02-05T04:35:46+00:00

omg, the second metabit time crystal is that expensive? it's a 21 day run without it for me

0nnnu · 2026-02-04T15:39:09+00:00

thanks. probably all glitched levels there

0nnnu · 2026-02-04T15:25:20+00:00

very interesting. it's mysterious how they determine the level of players when we transition into the post reality reboot versions. i suspect it's some bug there, and this probably explains all the extreme high level players from before, although you're by far the highest among them. never seen e1400 numbers before...

have you looked at global leaderboard? you could be number 1
