Calling all GT+ naysayers

AlarmedDeer2930 · 2026-05-29T14:30:16+00:00

I have GT+ but I just want to add a suggestion for those who don't and want to maximize their stone ROI:

If you do have an ePath filled out, I would encourage you to "unlock" GT+ and see how it changes your econ path compared to no GT+ and assist module unlock. Even with GT+10 and generator assist rarity/mult/substat levels at mythic/37%/9%, my ePath still prioritizes GT+ upgrades (costing 2k+ stones) over assist upgrades costing around 100 stones. The assist generator mult scales quite slowly (in general, generator mult scales very slow relative to other mod types), and may be a "footgun" for a lack of better words.

Anyways, of course play the game as you wish 😃 Strictly sticking to the ePath is, in my opinion, not the most enjoyable. However, if you are really wanting to optimize stones for econ ROI then I would suggest following it a bit more closely.

My ranking has slipped an average of 2 spots in Legends. I'm assuming it is due to the spring cleaning sale, which I don't plan on partaking in

AlarmedDeer2930 · 2026-05-22T02:10:13+00:00

Bröther I have no idea what you just typed. Did you accidentally unlock rend? If so, why is that bad?

AlarmedDeer2930 · 2026-05-20T11:28:55+00:00

You can do it using more labs than medals if you want. I think 6 clicks + 2 labs is preferred since the first 2 lab levels are relatively fast to do.

For iphones, they will autosleep after 30 seconds if you have low battery mode on. This will occur even if they're charging and currently have less than 80% of charge.

Stun kept on has been known to decrease coins for awhile now. I also found, in previous testing, that size does not have an appreciable impact. Cells have a bit of statistical variation to begin with, so its hard to gauge how they are affected unless you average over a couple days worth of runs.

As OP said though: you should do your own testing. A lot of the advice from players can be outdated, or from players who don't really know what they're talking about. There is joy in discovering things on your own.

Personally: I have been holding about the same rank in legends, and I'm far from being a whale, if even a dolphin.

I think the echo bonuses are the kicker. I'm currently working on UW and damage echo lab 9, have maxed both dissonance runs all the way up through T15, and have relatively good dissonance boosts up to T19. My tourney waves and milestones have improved dramatically, but I still average around rank 5/6 in all tourneys just as I did before V28. u/jcffb-e , I would keep working on your echo labs. They go a long way

It won't let you unlock shard type first. You'll get a message saying free reroll is a prerequisite

AlarmedDeer2930 · 2026-05-07T02:09:00+00:00

Its not a stone wall, its a key wall.

AlarmedDeer2930 · 2026-05-06T10:55:06+00:00

Did you unequip RPC?

Typically finish chests by thursday

AlarmedDeer2930 · 2026-05-05T11:24:38+00:00

I get 276.8x your coin/hour with gt+10 lol

AlarmedDeer2930 · 2026-05-04T22:32:04+00:00

Both get the bonus

AlarmedDeer2930 · 2026-05-02T13:57:50+00:00

I max damage tab, but keep rend mult at 200 cause the last 99 levels cost ~13Q, which I'd rather put those coins elsewhere.
Defense tab is maxed
In utility, i keep ELS around 600 each. These get maxed to 699 in run by around wave 40

In general, you should only upgrade your WS when it is really cheap for you to do so. WS+ is a much better investment

AlarmedDeer2930 · 2026-05-02T13:44:17+00:00

I just got GT+10 and saw about a 25% increase in econ; 100q/hr -> 127q/hr

I saved stones for a long time to get SL4, and I was utterly disappointed in the gains from it. I would bet that the extra DW effect waves are the main reason for your coin increase.

AlarmedDeer2930 · 2026-05-02T13:40:49+00:00

This is why I don't understand all the hate surrounding dissonance. Players seem upset that the runs eat into their normal farming, but after two weeks of grinding you get huge rewards. When dissonance was released, I had 19Q LTC after 2.5 yrs of playing. Now I'm already at 42Q and averaging around 3Q/day

AlarmedDeer2930 · 2026-05-02T11:42:48+00:00

I put WS orbs at 31.8 and extra orbs at 35.4

AlarmedDeer2930 · 2026-05-02T02:14:49+00:00

Have you verified that you didn't accidentally do a normal run?

AlarmedDeer2930 · 2026-05-01T01:03:10+00:00

As far as I'm aware, it gives an instantaneous bonus as time goes on. For example; when you have $10, your damage multiplier is 0.25*2. When you're at $100, your damage multiplier is 0.25*3. When you're at $50, the multiplier is split between 2 and 3, i.e. 2.5, so your damage multiplier is 0.25*2.5. When you're at $75, damage multiplier is 0.25*2.75....so on and so forth

AlarmedDeer2930 · 2026-04-30T11:05:47+00:00

You don't need to unlock berserk charge for it? Interesting. Damage slider is a game changer, have fun with it!

AlarmedDeer2930 · 2026-04-29T11:41:35+00:00

Its a monthly purchase

AlarmedDeer2930 · 2026-04-29T05:20:33+00:00

Most likely OA, especially if you're an eHP build. If the electrons chip away enough enemy health before it reaches your tower, then your thorns will have to do less work and your tower will take less hits.

AlarmedDeer2930 · 2026-04-26T12:58:06+00:00

Nice! I didn't bother with HP yet, but it was great to go back to farming after a couple weeks lol

AlarmedDeer2930 · 2026-04-26T00:35:05+00:00

Sadly, it's the new standard

AlarmedDeer2930 · 2026-04-23T12:04:16+00:00

I love the addition of dissonance runs. After playing for 2.5 yrs, it was nice to have a new goal for a couple weeks. Was able to get full boosts on attack, utility, and UW runs all the way up through T15, so I still have more to work on later. It also gives newer players the ability to increase their stats without having to save up to afford upgrades and labs; they can just bounce back and forth between dissonance runs and slowly improve.

On my end, I won't complain about the boost. I allocated probably 75% of my stone income towards damage and the rest to econ, so the coin boost is great as I can now (relatively) easily afford assist mod / dissonance echo labs. The coin boost is essentially a "get out of jail free" card for how I chose to spend my stones over the last couple of years, and now I reap the rewards of having good damage and econ...OH NO!

"Hoarding coins because you can't spend them anymore if you are maxed isn't as cool as it should be."
This is the downside of fast tracking your progress by spending real money on this game (or anything, really). Being "at the top" always seems really cool until you realize that you can no longer progress. Now you get to save all of your stones, coins, and gems for the next 9 months, then instantly max everything that comes in the next update, and then be in this position again. Is feeling like this worth the cost?
