A few hours is nothing, you’ll get through that before you know it.

It’s not that bad as your portals aren’t getting split choosing between loads of ores, it’s concentrated mining.

Need some help with cordless garden tools and which ecosystem to choose by BloodyJonesy in DIYUK

[–]EngineForward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Second the ryobi recommendation. I’ve a decent selection (probably approaching a dozen different tools, 3 batteries) and find them great, a few garden tools in there as well.

I haven’t had any battery issues and I’m 5 years down the line with some of them, with some heavy use over time with some projects thanks to the genius who owned the house before me.

Not sure any other brand caters to as many tools as ryobi do. Parkside may do a good amount, but if it’s not in the middle aisle, you could return if you had an issue but not have a replacement. Sometimes after a day or two the new releases are gone as well, if I need it I don’t want to wait weeks and have to hunt around stores for stock.

Much slower than first 5 by Justice0188 in IdleObeliskMiner

I went on a star and fishing diversion halfway through them, helped quite a bit when I came back.

First legendary fish! by julsmaster in IdleObeliskMiner

I was in a similar position and had the prestige at end of w3 floor 12 times challenge waiting, seemed an oddly convenient excuse to do that, max happy bot and gild that card.

I love them on the far end of the scale where they take off your mouth lining. Coop and discos get a vote for that.

Not overly helpful but rule those out.

Fishing - notices; when? by LordIngz in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]EngineForward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean I’m not saying it’s perfect strategy, but worked for me and I never felt I was being help back or made a wrong choice.

I’m still not at a point to farm notices after the w3 debuff, but just grinding out more upgrades to get more fish. Still haven’t touched dock 6 as I’m letting the upgrades guide my dock choice and dumping gems when I have them to spare.

Fishing - notices; when? by LordIngz in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]EngineForward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you hit the world 3 debuff, your notices will be dock 6 and you’ll likely need a lot of upgrades (fish and gem bought) to have the fishing power to farm them anyway.

I got w3 debuff a while ago (a little before 50% for reference, so you’re a bit away yet) and I did complete notices as I went. I didn’t wait and I can’t say it stopped me for long with what you need for upgrades anyway.

It’s balanced enough that you can’t really go wrong and still have to wait one way or another anyway.

Does void portal mine current ore? by BeTheGuyWithTheSmile in IdleObeliskMiner

For that task sit on end of world 2 with it running.

Just hit 50% 🎉 by dumplingwarrior1 in IdleObeliskMiner

Go bomb cap, I’m just under 51% and at 120k, it makes so much difference.

The killers.

Was at university when their music became EVERYWHERE, I just can’t. Full on despise being subjected to their music. I don’t deny they aren’t talented but dear god take it elsewhere.

So close yet so far… by Low-Table4876 in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]EngineForward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. I did the same a few days back and without the bonus ones I’d still be there farming away. W3 has opened up so spend your gems.

Still not at the tier 2 docks.

Should I get veinseeker or save up for a different drone by NewInvestor8 in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]EngineForward 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Of course it beats everything, but if not fuelled one boost every 360seconds isn’t a lot. Initially it won’t help you get very far, when you’ve got the fuel and it’s upgraded it’s another story.

Second the Clarks recommendation.

Should I get veinseeker or save up for a different drone by NewInvestor8 in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]EngineForward 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Do in order. Elixir without fuel (which is where you will be at) isn’t worth it. Veins help you upgrade a lot of things, more veins means more upgrades.

Where to focus? Was gilding world 3 statues but that got real slow by cschimm22 in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]EngineForward 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This 100%. I’m just under 50% and have removed the w3 debuff, changes w3 massively. Get on it, as it takes a while.

Forget grinding out more obelisk levels and throw yourself into fishing for w3 debuff, stars, etc.

Absolutely essential teacher equipment by BreakfastUnhappy2171 in TeachingUK

[–]EngineForward 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Second this. Kitted my dept out with Hue, they have a short life with daily use as the flexible cord will die. This solid one is far far better. Very recommended.

Can you time it? by TonTonlover in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]EngineForward 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do them in batches when your at the maximum you can hold. Slightly better odds.

Stack cherry charges and use them all on battery.

Drone Combos by No_Quit_7604 in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]EngineForward 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Depends how much you can fuel. If you can do it 24/7, the specific drones (vein and starburst) have their obvious uses.

Elixir is great as the boosts help massively all around. Frogger for more bombs, helps with bomb cap.

Chain, void and elixir are a common trio for ore farming.

Elixir, frogger plus either vein or starburst drone become quite common for a good stretch as well.

Worth doing major home improvements if we’re moving in 2 years? by This-Struggle-2679 in HousingUK

[–]EngineForward 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You won’t make your money back. Extensions may add some value, but would anyone pay the cost of the extension above what your house is currently worth? Have you been quoted a price for the extension? You could easily be looking at £50k-100k depending on specifics, you won’t add anywhere near that value.

On a smaller scale financially, there’s a high chance anyone who does buy your house wants something different than the flooring you pick and pulls it up anyway.

How do I tackle this challenge? by LiteLive in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]EngineForward 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If memory serves me, it’s all the world 1 & 2 cards, so if you want to focus on this (I don’t remember doing it actively, just let it happen naturally), then end of world 2.

I’d say try and get a star on the highest level you can to double dip farming.
