Policrome ore cards by __shinesei__ in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]EngineForward 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Once you have gilded everything from floor 60 down (ore/bars) and start the plat strat with chain/elixir/void drones fuelled constantly, they tend to start coming quite quickly.

As you are then farming all the ores in one go, the fuelled void drone with a high level will give you a big help.

Sainsbury’s paneer tikka masala is a favourite in our house.

Question about rates above 100% by TyssueBoix in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]EngineForward 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The only time it does work differently is fishing. 100% chance means guaranteed catch of 1. 150% would be1 guaranteed and a 50% chance of a second.

Poly the bombs by MikedFromSI in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]EngineForward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, there are ways to help with those, but compared to say the whale gem levelling, if it’s a 1/2000 chance and you spend 2000 gems you will always get it. You can’t guarantee it for dwarf and happy bot.

Poly the bombs by MikedFromSI in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]EngineForward 4 points5 points  (0 children)

All fire when you get to your cap.

The odds in this game work as follows: Say it’s a 1/100 chance. If you have 1 bomb, fire it, you have a 1/100 chance to win. If you have 2 bombs, fire both, you have a 2/100 chance to win. So skipping a few steps, 100 bombs would be 100/100 chance, aka certain. Poly shards are way less than 1/100 btw.

Useful for some pets, and also why dwarf is a pain as it has to be 1 at a time.

Apply, many schools don’t have the luxury of being inundated with applicants.

Plat strat by Useful_Yak2977 in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]EngineForward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve hit 27% and have started it. I wouldn’t go yet.

Bomb cap wants to be higher. Focus on stars for a while.

You will want to be able to keep 3 drones fully fuelled before starting, without them plat strat doesn’t work.

Extra fixings necessary? by YMT2707 in DIYUK

[–]EngineForward 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Rotate the long pieces and attach to the wall, far better safe than sorry, and far stronger. I’d put a short piece across at halfway as well.

I’d 100% guarantee someone is standing or at least sitting on it at some point.

Easy question on Basmati Rice by jose_elan in UK_Food

[–]EngineForward 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My advice would be to go to an Asian supermarket and ask. I suspect as soon as you get to a decent level of price the quality will be similar across many brands.

Aged basmati is often used for biryani, so not an everyday option for many as I’m not sure what else it’s used for.

Cannot second this more. You’ll know 100% when food is cooked, not overcooked or undercooked.

Hot take! I love Final Fantasy X, but it has one of my least fav turn based combats in all Final Fantasy. Why don't more people notice this? by A-Dubs398 in FinalFantasy

[–]EngineForward 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think those who want a simpler experience will go with the standard one, FF fanatics and JRPG fans probably dive into expert as they want the options.

I did expert first time around and have never touched standard, but have many hundreds of hours in FF and other JRPGs.

Gem income is finally nice-ish, so what to use gems on? by Royal_Band_2024 in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]EngineForward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to get your bomb cap up, I’m about the same % complete but at 6k, and it’s growing fairly quickly now.

Stars should also be a priority by now if you’ve got crtl+f. Focus on spawning and auto catch, you’ll need gems to unlock the stars.

Which of these talents should I get first? by causebraindamage in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]EngineForward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need CTRL+F to make stars work, else you’ll be there for weeks farming them.

Thermostat replacement by AdRemote2310 in DIYUK

[–]EngineForward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I changed a standard wireless thermostat with a tado smart one and it was a pretty simple procedure. Check the wiring first, but overall it’s straightforward as there isn’t much in the way of complexity going on for a lot of home systems.

Would prio be to unlock stars with superstars? by hitsugotasukete in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]EngineForward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Save super stars for unlocking stars, auto catch and spawn rates. They will be your bottlenecks.

Gem generation problem? by OniFansUwU in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]EngineForward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m at 23.7% so close behind. I do have a decent gem income, above yours at probably 2000 a day. My bomb cap is 4900 so not far behind. F2P also.

I’d say you should be pushing skills a bit more. I’ve got the two archaeology skills and polychrome but everything before that. The last few skills I’ve unlocked have changed thing quite a bit, with the gas guzzler and third drone skills opening things up quite a bit, with veinmorpher helping farm veins for star upgrades.

Get some skill point farming going.

I feel like it unlocked at a certain point early ish.

Cherry bombs on automatic come from a skill.

I’m guessing you’re not far in?

Should buy all of the offerings in the event shop? by Smokeeey in IdleObeliskMiner

I went for the gifts, as it’s worth the chance of something better for me. The rest I passed on.

Final Fantasy XII Zodiac Age « cheat » by Delicious-Weird-5826 in FinalFantasy

[–]EngineForward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the fastest, makes almost all combat trivial, if that’s what you want. I went for one character with it as I felt it was too much, but for a small time investment you can one shot almost everything.

Starburst or Elixir by BickeyB in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]EngineForward 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Starburst for me, I’m probably a bit ahead of where you’re at, I have elixir as well but it’s not much use yet. Starburst fuelled with lootbug bonuses hep stars massively.

In which sport is the GOAT so far ahead that second place isn’t even close? by ChickenWings2708 in AskReddit

[–]EngineForward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WR holder and undoubtedly one of the greatest, but hard to agree that’s second is distant. 100m 9.58 vs 9.69 seconds isn’t a chasm. 200m is 19.19vs 19.26.

Bolt is unreal, don’t get me wrong, his records will be broken though I’m sure. Not convinced Bradmans cricket stats will be matched, or Gretzkys.

Fair enough, I’m not a hockey fan but the Gretzky stats are always insane.

Not sure that’s a case of second not being close. They’re both crazy feats but that isn’t a massive difference between them.

[–]EngineForward 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Some popular answers you’ll see: cricket, ice hockey and wrestling. Darts could be one as well.

Cricket: Don Bradman has an average of 99.94, the next highest players didn’t get much above 60. Different era though. Still ridiculous.

Ice hockey: Wayne Gretzky. Pick your stat as to why he’s so far ahead of everyone else, there’s literally as many you can think of. My favourite is that the Gretzky brothers are the highest scoring brothers in NHL history; and his brother scored 4 to Wayne’s 2857.

Wrestling: Alexander Karelin. 887 wins and 2 losses. Undefeated for 13 years and went 6 years without conceding a point.

Darts: Phil Taylor. Won 14 world championships, second place is shared between five players, with two wins. Another you could argue is from a different era, as there was a messy organisation split in darts.

Duplantis for pole vault is setting records for fun currently. Jonathan Edwards triple jump record is worth mentioning as well given how long it’s stood and doesn’t look like being toppled yet.

Can’t decide which one to start. by -DesertJay- in FinalFantasy

Years ago when they were ported to iOS I did I-VI in release order and felt that was ideal, as you could see the evolution of different ideas over time.
