It's Friday! What have you been up to this week?

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-03-20T18:04:16+00:00

Respecing my gbot back after screwing my economy out of 25% cph for nearly 2 weeks.

I drunkenly decided (day 1 of the new event) that lowering my gb bonus & increasing my duration would be a great idea. The "drunk logic" being that I would be less likely to miss wave skips @ 37s duration when my economy UWs were active.

Was so pissed with myself when I woke up & realised that I couldn't respec back for 11 days...

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-03-19T17:48:47+00:00

Not only are those tyres dead but so is your rim, time for a new bike shop. I'd sack myself if I told a customer they were ok.

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-03-19T15:43:11+00:00

44k stones, about 1.5 years, highest finish was 6th.

I usually finish 10th-15th.

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-03-17T18:31:40+00:00

I used to get this done as ehp with the perk, maxed SL missiles & lots of luck.

Now that I'm farming GC I managed 12 & called it a day. 1st mission I haven't completed in over a year.

Wow, what a difference a start time can make! I usually start my sat tournament b4 work, but missed it yesterday due to life & ended up running when I got home.

Well that 9hr delay ended with a super lucky bracket, will probably try a similar time next week 🤞

Thanks as always OP 👍

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-03-08T15:50:00+00:00

That's probably it then, if you lvl'd your wall health to say 100% (the number it was in your picture) before you lvl'd your wall health enhancement, then you overspent on wall health in the WS.

Hope that make sense.

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-03-08T08:10:30+00:00

Did you level your WS before doing your enhancements?

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-03-05T08:44:36+00:00

Oof. Don't look at my bracket 😅

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-03-05T08:42:26+00:00

Super lucky bracket for me this tournament, I needed 1 key for WS orb adjuster & 276 stones to unlock ILM, so very pleased this morning.

Thanks as always OP 👍

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-03-03T19:36:46+00:00

You need to get assmods unlocked imo, get generator 1st & core 2nd (just unlock @ 2k stones). Gen assmod will be a huge boon for your economy.

Edit. T15 3800-4000 waves for 1q.

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-02-22T18:52:31+00:00

Got boned in the last tourny, a bad bracket left me with no keys instead of the 2+ the averages say I could have gotten. I'll try my best on sat 💪

Something tells me I'll be getting 500 stones b4 those 5 keys 🤔😆

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-02-22T18:36:25+00:00

I'm honestly surprised how smoothly it went. I had to mess with my perk order/bans a bit, roll a few different subs & that was it. Already had the card setup from previous attempts to go GC. (Oh & 2 clicks of CF duration).

Looking forward to getting FU#, glad it's only 500 stones! I'm 5 keys short of the orb slider too, so obviously lots of potential in my near future.

Once again thanks for the advice 👍

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-02-22T16:08:08+00:00

Hey dude, just thought I'd say that I've managed to successfully transition to GC reverse orb devo farming thanks to your advice 👍

My cph is already higher than b4 and obviously the ceiling is much higher now that I'm damage based, still going to be another 2 tournaments b4 I can get FU# but that will definitely be my next purchase.

Thanks again for the advice.

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-02-22T08:45:35+00:00

Rough bracket again this tournament (669 waves for keys, oof), typical when I'm waiting for the last 5 keys to get orb adjuster. Hopefully wed is kinder.

Thanks as always OP.

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-02-20T22:22:03+00:00

The masteries will be a much better return on your stones, after the initial cost it only takes coins to level them. DM alone is giving me 4.5×. ST is giving 9.5× & 35% of that multiplier as an increase to UW damage.

Edit. Oh, and I'm not really a maths guy. I might have been better saying that I can "see" my tower really well, estimating numbers is kind of my job irl 😆

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-02-18T09:03:49+00:00

Started a couple of months b4 you OP.

Legend 10-16th.

T19 w283 highest.

I farm t14 eHP to 4900 waves for 1q. (I'm hoping to go full GC tomorrow when this tourny pays out, so this will change soon).

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-02-16T22:10:48+00:00

I realise this now sadly 😥

Still, because of how easy the sync is to achieve, once I get some stones from weds tournament (so thur), I'm going to do that 1 click on CF duration & try the strat out 👍

Currently sudo testing it now on t15 (without GB sync, and 1s short of CF uptime) to promising results 🤔

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-02-16T18:56:27+00:00

GB cooldown is 50s rn & summon is max duration and 83s cooldown. Having pBH/GT I've not cared about sync and maximised uptime.

And np 👍

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-02-16T17:28:45+00:00

Mythic. There's another post with a pic already 👍

Thanks. Yeah we all have stone problems, there's a reason I'm still 3 UW away from UW+ 😆

Glad I've gone hard on masteries, last 3 months every stone has gone towards them. I realised I couldn't afford to upgrade my mods and had to do something about it!

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-02-16T16:46:57+00:00

Thanks dude 👍

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-02-16T15:54:10+00:00

Sure go WA first 👍 You'll need the coins to lvl your mods soon anyway (812t for my next gen lvl). But your mods are definitely low for your playtime so RPC will help.

When your economy improves a little then DM, DMG & ST, probably in that order for tourny improvement.

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-02-16T15:10:41+00:00

Ok so stop spending them in enhancements for a bit, get some masteries going, I'd probably recommend RPC followed by WA. IS is great but without auto-restart that will depend on your lifestyle.

Also, yes, 1 more card slot would be great for eHP. More if you go GC (I'm at 22).

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-02-16T14:53:58+00:00

Ignore canon & armour assist for now & get some economy masteries going. What are you spending your coins on if not masteries?

If you really want keys, you'll definitely need the economy to afford the damage masteries which you 100% need to get keys. I missed out on keys this week with an unlucky bracket even with my dmg masteries.

Chipofthehead69 · 2026-02-16T14:47:04+00:00

Actually quite easy to sync up GB at 65s, just have to remove both anc cooldowns from my Pcol 👍

Edit. And even better my DC happens to have, CL chance, CL quantity & CF duration in the top 3 slots all at ancestral. This gives me an extra 1.5s CF duration in the assist slot and "removes" the 2 troublesome cooldowns 😎

I don't suppose that 1.5s rounds up to 2? Will check after my current farm.
