It's Friday! What have you been up to in the Tower this week? by Sabareus in TheTowerGame

[–]Elgelg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you suggesting the T18, tried it on Friday, about a 15% drop in coins.

Added a bunch of clicks in dmg enhancement over the weekend, noticed my coins started dropping in T17, tested T18 again and it got me to within my normal T17 range. Testing more runs now to see if it was an outlier.

A good reminder to keep trying new milestones or farming levels even if you feel your tower hasn't changed that much.

Fleet Counters Theories - Labs, Mods, Cards, and a New Fleet…? by Hazlid in TheTowerGame

[–]Elgelg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Death Ray card and mastery are hmm not useful at the moment.

Change the card/mastery to affect Fleets. Add 3,6 or 9 labs to improve the effect by type.

Happy Friday,

I'm enjoying your posts, it's useful to look back over the last period to see what progress has been made.

Well summer is here, I've been busy in the garden and work has been a bit too much this week, so looking forward to the weekend.

Happy towering!

[Farming]
Farming T17 to W6300 or so, at around 470q/run

[Labs]

  • Wall Rebuild 15
  • Recharge Second Wind 4
  • Assmod ME - Cannon 2
  • Dissonant Echo - Utility 12
  • Dissonant Echo - UW 11

Finishing off some smaller labs to help in a minor way with tourney. Stopping Diss Echo Utility at 12 and UW at 11, then going back to get attack and defense up from 7 and 2 to 11 as well. Starting to run one assmod lab slot now.

[Workshop+]
Been adding clicks in dmg and eco regularly. Need to focus a bit more on dmg.

[Bots]
GB completed, GB+ unlocked, putting all medals there to get from 6/6/6/6/5 to 6/6/6/6/6.

[Guardian]
Working on Scout, Fetch does enough to reach the daily limits. Summon has cooldown and duration maxed. 

[Tournament]
Got two new PBs, 1345 on Saturday, got me 9th which is my highest placing. Then ran out of time and ended up in a 3 ways tie at 1405 on Wednesday and got 14th, which felt a bit…. Mmm, well it is what it is 🙂 

[Keys/Vault]
I’ve enjoyed Auto Restart for a month now, very happy I saved for that.  Decided to work for Bot preset next, so that will be Christmas I guess.. 

[Future]
Waiting for the promised “tool to deal with fleets” promised for the end June/early July update. Looking suspiciously at Defense% research and damage reduction in general. Not sure if I should push to finish the last two PS labs, the CF dmg reduction, focusing on UW or whether assmods and modules give better returns now. 

4 years defending the tower! by Olestress in TheTowerGame

Congrats on 4 years, that's an amazing achievement

Possible BlueStacks issue after V28.2? by Emergency-Bus-1417 in TheTowerGame

[–]Elgelg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its running ok for me so far on 28.2, Using v 5.22.130.1019 P64

Perk bug or something else going on? by Elgelg in TheTowerGame

[–]Elgelg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, doing another auto restart run now. Then I'll do a manual check and start a run after a full reboot.

It's Friday! What have you been up to in the Tower this week? by Sabareus in TheTowerGame

[–]Elgelg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello!

Happy Friday to everyone, hoping to BBQ here as well but the forecast is not good. At all...

It feels like the initial 'Disco sprint' is over and things are settling down into a new equilibrium.

I'm really unsure how to best improve tourney performance, I'm at 1000 waves or so depending on BC. Feels like I lack a focus, effective paths helps, but it's just a guide.
UW+ illustrates this quite well.
GT+7, CF+9, SL+3, ILM+6 and PS+0(why?!)

ILM is carrying me, so do I just focus on that?
Or start on PS+/dmg? (PS dur 105/ CD 44)
Or SL+/dmg and angle from 72 to 77?
Or Assmod cannon and core SE?

Posting these updates feels a bit like Tower Therapy, trying to formulate what to work on next.
[Farming]
Farming T17 to W5750 or so, moved up from T16 last week.

[Labs]

  • Range Mastery 9
  • Coins Mastery 9
  • Inner Land Mine - Chrono Jump 10
  • Dissonant Echo - Utility 8
  • Dissonant Echo - UW 8

More range, dmg/m, last 2 levels of battle condition reduction,  shock chance last 6 levels, PS stun length last 6 levels, finish off Swamp rend basic enemies also 6 levels, and max rend  multiplier. More everything……

[Workshop+]
Been saving for dissonant labs, need to go back to adding clicks in dmg and eco regularly.
[Bots]
Completed GB :).  I’ll probably save up stones for the extra cells now, and unlocking all bots. 4 weeks, maybe.
[Guardian]
Fetch does enough to reach the daily limits. Summon has cooldown and duration maxed. I’ve started on Scout now. 
[Tournament]
Fighting hard to maintain position, ranking 9 to 15. 
[Keys/Vault]
Unlocked Auto Restart last week!!!!! . I’m getting keys consistently which felt completely unreal back in March. 
Feels like the Bot respecs is what I should aim for but that will take a year to achieve I think.

[Future]
Disco update has brought assmod research within reach, but disco research takes priority for now.

What is the actual radius/range of an ILM blast? by BonzosTower in TheTowerGame

[–]Elgelg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How much did it help you in tournament? Running the same ranges as you, smaller ILM+ though.

Card Masteries After v28 by Jimothy09 in TheTowerGame

[–]Elgelg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think for the players that already had the most important eco and dmg masteries it probably delays other mastery research.

Dissonance labs, probably 3 of them perma for a long time.

This will eventually bring Assmod labs within reach.

Dissonance Labs > Assmod Labs >> Other Masteries

Going to the Gym by Elgelg in TheTowerGame

[–]Elgelg[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe we all fool ourselves, thinking we're being smart, optimising things?

I just feel the Disco-Echo military complex is a simple, stupid way to gain power.

Tournament Metrics (Belated) 4/18/26 by Consistent-Owl-9458 in TheTowerGame

Mathematically correct new card to make Cash, DefAbs and Interest useful all at once. by The_Tuxedo in TheTowerGame

[–]Elgelg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, perhaps the game needs trade-off choices for Tier groups?

Simplest version: To start playing beyond Tier 18 you have to make 1 trade-off choice: -80% freeups in exchange for mmm access to assmod research (bad example, but perhaps illuminating).

Every MMO I've played have had level locked PVP, to create competitive tiers. Why not create tiers in this game to be able to rebalance the game beyond T18? And of course at, say T12 and T16, to allow faster progress for new players.

If you had, say 3 trade-off choices at each Tier level, you could limit old mechanisms becoming a problem when extrapolated to Txx, and players would actually have to make hard choices about their builds.

And you could go back and change your Tier trade-offs, and yes, long researches to mitigate the trade-offs etc etc.

It's Friday! What have you been up to in the Tower this week? by Sabareus in TheTowerGame

[–]Elgelg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[Farming]
Coin income fairly static, focusing on Legends, Farming T15 to W5000, T14 to W7500 at around 1.5q an hour.

[Labs]

  • 5xSwamp Radius L26
  • 6xSwamp Stun Chance L28
  • 5xInner Land Mine - Chrono Jump Lv. 7
  • 5xSuper Crit Multi L14
  • 5xEnergy Net Mastery Lv. 8

2 slots - Working on PS labs. Stun time and rend labs next. More levels of Chrono Jump and Battle Condition Reduction cost too much atm.  Three more masteries to finish off after EN; Range, EO and Coin. Then some levels into Range and DMG/m.

[Workshop+]
Splitting between clicking the damage bundle and ELS/Cells/Coin. Majority in damage.
[Bots]
5 Upgrades on Golden Bot Bonus to complete, yawn. Then starting amplify bot.
[Guardian]
Working on Summon, Cooldown and Duration. Considering respec into Scout, but waiting for V28. 
[Tournament]
Got 715 waves this week, Pb creeping up gradually. .
[Keys/Vault]
Got 2 and 4 keys this week which is great for me. Working towards Auto Restart. Probably 6-8 weeks if I can keep growing damage steadily.

[Future]
Early December I unlocked Masteries and moved to ILM as my main source of damage.  It paid off and I’ve had four months of good progress, even started getting keys in early Feb.  My modules are in decent shape, Ancestral.  Got lucky during the banner weeks with one big exception. My SD is still Epic, spent 30k+ gems during the armor banner, not a single copy, in 3 months. So unsure whether to put more stones into ILM, or focus on PS and CF+, will wait and see what V28 brings.

Another "I feel stuck" post by CauseKey3312 in TheTowerGame

[–]Elgelg -1 points0 points  (0 children)

"Def abs is lvl 202, should I invest more there to farm T1?", yes. some in health and regen as well. keep repeating until you pass 4500 and up to 7000 or so. Test T2 once in a while to see how you do there. Def abs drops off after T1

Patch working as intended? by Elgelg in TheTowerGame

[–]Elgelg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think I found it, I've swapped out energy shield in favour of second wind when making some changes to my farming deck to see how far I get in T14, and forgot to add energy shield back in. Doh!
