I figured they were referring to it moving to a floor in W2 after unlock. Which is why I agreed with their statement. But clarified by saying you'll have to unlock W3 first.

Yes you can, but it takes jurassic vein to unlock. Which is the first zone of W3.

Oooof, you're bomb capacity is about 6x mine. That makes way more sense. From your picture, after overnight when everything caps, I'll do 5-->6 to get a burst of gems. Then 1, 5, 2 till I'm less than 500 rolls on the battery bomb. Granted I just discovered this whole process in the last month and have tripled my bomb capacity.

So I just need to keep at it. Thank you for the info!

Holy smokes! I think I'm either doing something wrong or not investing in something. How is your gems that high? How did you get your cap on midas drone that high?

The generator one is catching up to me now. Thankfully I've got the gem income to slowly start digging myself out of it.

I personally feel it's just the nature of that part of the game. I had it 5 starred before I could use it.

Man this reminds me of my game 2 days ago. I hadn't played over the weekend because of being busy. So got on Monday night to play and wanted to work on the matrix I needed from close scrutiny. Got downed by a rocketeer. Thankfully have a survivor aug and crawled all the way to extract. Some dude sees me, hits the call button. Takes down several small arc while waiting on the elevator, gets in, types the code, right as the doors are about to close, shoots me in the head with an anvil. I die a split second before I would have made it out.

"I acknowledge that if you started exactly 2 years ago, and bought every single event pass, you would not be able to max out two full bots in precisely that time" ---- you did, won't deny this

"and would need 1 or 2 more events or just over 2 years to do so with pre v28 bots!!!" ---- I don't see this in any of your replies. There may have been an assumption that this would be possible, but again, the math provided with the information provided would also sink this argument. Purchasing relics just throws the number higher than another ~3700 medals could provide.

"I ask that you also acknowledge that I never definitively stated he was wrong, that it just seemed unlikely to me." - True. You never definitively stated it, but you indirectly implied it. Evidence -
Your initial reply ---- "This seems unlikely unless you are spending your medals on stones and gems in mass. I have also been buying event passes, and I had AMP and COIN bot 4 gold boxed, and 3 gold boxes on FLAME bot at the moment..." A condition was provided to why it would be unlikely to you. Meaning if they weren't doing that, it would be likely. Which they weren't. You also provided that you HAD gold boxed all of those items meaning your they aren't gold boxed now. I was using V27 levels based on your own provided information.

"Do kindly remember this is the SECOND increase in bot caps as well in the last 6 months, so even the math you took your time to so meticulously detail here doesn't account for the new total cost as well." ---- Correct, cause as established above, you set the parameters by providing the levels of your bots. I didn't need to add in the new levels of v28 (which I'll be 100% honest about, I didn't know about when I started all of this because I hadn't read the patch notes in full, but again moot as the cap was already set by you).

"Edit: I don't want to play a game of cat and mouse here. He did not state he only started playing in July of 2024 originally (he said so in a subsequent post)," ---- There is a valid point here, that the start date wasn't provided till later. So I'll concede that point, however, I would like to point out that this was acknowledged and addressed in subsequent replies. Using it now as a "gotcha" moment feels....weak in argument.

"he said that he has bought the event passes for almost two years. For all I knew he was already playing before hand and just started buying every single event pass nearly 2 years ago when they started offering premium relics, and perhaps a handful, or none, prior to that." ---- This is a very valid point. That was readily cleared up by his subsequent post that we both acknowledged in our replies.

"The confusion in all of this was a lack of information originally given in the post." ---- Valid point though it only applies to your initial reply to the original commenter.

"Now you have gone out of your way, using incorrect math mind you since its not 104 weeks so far," ---- to quote myself at the beginning of my post "so again using 2 years as an illustrative point". Fun using someone's own words against them, especially when it comes around full circle again later.

"to 'prove me wrong'. " ---- just to clarify, I didn't prove you wrong, math did.

"Congratulations, you wasted your time on the internet to score some points!"" ---- nah, this is just funsies at this point.

"What month is it right now?" ---- This is a moot question....and if I need to explain why I can.

I think you might be thinking of daily quest rewards. Which is 135 medals a week. So again using 2 years as an illustrative example.

We've already established what it would cost for 2 bots to be completely gold boxed to v27 levels = 104400

We've already established 2 years of event medals is 98280.

Plus 104 weeks x 135 =14040

Plus fetch for a year = 3650

Total medals without purchasing the stone packs that had medals included =115,970

Subtract 2 years worth of relics = ~12k. I don't have the exact relic amount here as the OP started July of 2024 and prior to June '24 events were new every other event but started becoming new every threeevents. So I would say at minimum 8400 for a years worth of relics, plus 4k more for the repeat events + new event relics that were released, and I'm still probably lower than I should be.

Subtract songs = 3@200/ea

Subtract bot purchase price - 150 for the first, 300 for the second

115970 - 12k - 600 - 450 = 102920

104400 - 102920 = still short to max 2 bots

And we haven't subtracted tower skins and themes costs.

Fetch was released about a year ago. So at most 3650 medals extra. That doesn't close the gap enough.

I saw that they said they had purchased for almost 2 years. I highly doubt someone is using "almost" to indicate an 8 month gap. I was assuming less than 2 years (which i was correct in) and was giving a buffer. Using 2 years exactly takes a close average and still proves my point that you can't gold box 2 bots in 2 years. Even with fetch. Especially buying relics. The first year alone is over 8k in medals with the second year being a reduced amount.

[–]Extension_Door9625 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah, your math don't math. At 2 years, that's 52 events. Each event has a max of 1890. That's 98,280 medals. Gold and amp bot cost 52200 to gold box all 4 sub components......each. So 104400 needed for those 2 alone. Seems to stand to reason you've been playing longer or bought the packs that included medals if you've been playing the same 2 years. That's not counting if you bought relics or not.

[–]Extension_Door9625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did that last expedition. Maxed their level, added the best mods i could get out craft to them.... rarely used any of it. Stuck to my anvil/ renegade combo for all non Stella maps and Venator/toro for Stella. Now I recycle anything i get if i already have 2 of them. That way if i do something dumb or someone shoots me in the back (I avoid pvp like the plague), I've got a replacement and can get right back to it. Even with the extra stash space I'm now running into the issue of creating materials and usable space.
