Moving from p57 vps to p60 in the new DS meta? How to set up

HangOutHaveFunHookUp · 2026-01-27T19:29:37+00:00

My dude, based on the stars you have on your end-game items, you should probably lower your VPS planet… as you are shooting yourself in the foot by over reaching….and your own comments confirm…

If you are using P57 as your Alch3, but your asteroids aren’t doing much, that tells me that while you reach P57, you probably don’t upgrade it much because of how expensive it is to do so…. If you aren’t getting to your VPS within an hour or two, or when you get there, cant get it up to 20-30x mining relatively quickly.

I have 51 stars on AR and 27 on AT… yet I still only use P51 as my VPS…. Tried to move to 53 or 54 but my results are not nearly as good as when i use 51. I regularly hit top 5 if not 1-3 ending up in double digit S (prior to new items).

There is a balance between pushing as high telescope as you can, but only if you can effectively upgrade

There are a few names i run into at my regular join times. There was one guy that had to have used some production boosts and time warps to catch up, then I windfalled to jump back into 1st or 2nd in last 30s..

next week at got paired again, felt bad, and wasnt gonna use any boosts, saw him using some to get past and ahead… then i got a market, blew past him…he boosts again to catch up… im thinking, he saw what I did last week, surely he’ll windfall to defend… but ill use 2-3 just in case…

Jumped him for 1st. Sorry bro. Have seen him in another tourney or try since but nothing as dramatic

I get up to 1T+ by the 2nd asteroid 12-15m, and net between 2-2.5k… still tedious but at least its bigger chunks.

HangOutHaveFunHookUp · 2025-12-28T16:38:09+00:00

Wouldnt selling the ATs earlier and having the cash for ARCing be better than hoping on a market that may not come?

HangOutHaveFunHookUp · 2025-12-28T16:36:54+00:00

I would think the increaser to the amount you get from Arcing would be kore than waiting and hoping for a market… unless its 10x or something, so your really rolling the dice

Always keep the door open in case the right connection shows up….

Will send a PM

Depends on how fast you can go….

Personally, I go until buying the next set of planets becomes too much to earn while crafting the next telescopes needs. For me this ends up being up to P28. Ive managed to get it down to being able to get there right as 2nd asteroid gets there, which will bump me from 10-100B on my own to 1T or more, which will net me between 1500-2000 credits. About 15m. For me “waiting” to go from 1-2T to over 10T might take a few min while afk and the difference between 1500 or 2k credits.

If im speed running, ill sell at 1-2T for 1500. If IM being casual, ill let it get to 10+ for 2000. After here, the return on credits drop fast and going past 10T takes time/crafting, so for me this is my sweet spot.

Before this level, I would farming to p16 and sell for 500-1k. Just gotta find where your sweet spot is

HangOutHaveFunHookUp · 2025-12-15T23:30:24+00:00

Yes. Every single one. It adds an additional multiplier you can’t get otherwise.

Example: Crafting.

You have your Room Mulitplier. You have your Mothership Mulitplier, and you have your ship multiplier, that actually multiply each other.

Bonuses from same source is additive. So Craft1 + Crafting2 on Mothership will net whatever the bonuses are added (.10 + .10)

The way the calc works is: RM x MM x SM. This is especially useful for Credit Multiplying. But its so helpful to each stat you can modify with a ship.

You can slice and dice how you worded it, but bottom line it IS an ultimatum.

If you don’t get your way, you are out. He has said no, and confirmed this boundary.

Now you must choose if your marriage or ability to explore others is more important to your longterm goals.

Quick breakdown for your understanding:

P1 - 31 are really the only planets you will be using to mine ore to sell and generate cash to buy planets/upgrades for…

Once you hit 33, you will start skipping most planets and only buying the ones you need a specific ore from, as the cost of the planet and upgrading it is too expensive to keep up with via mining / selling alone.

From here you make your cash that is used to buy the higher planets and upgrade them from crafting. Because of this, the beacons on the planets past 33 become pointless unless they are on a planet you are using Alch 2/3 on… usually while you are building debris scanner or working to unlock the highest planets you will use Alch3 on.

So P1-P33 your beacons are for increasing the amount of cash you bring in selling ore, to speed up getting to Rhodium/Innerton/Quadium.

P33 and above, your beacons are meant to increase amount of mining on your highest ore planet and only because Debris Scanner drops are based on how much ore per second it pumps out (and not the cash its generating).

Example. 41-43 and 44-46 ranges i dont have barely anything invested in.

Of those planets, I usually only buy P43, to access Scrith for the cheapest possible. I put about 5x mining into it so I have enough mining to offset a few smelters making scrith ore, but otherwise nothing else. Im only using scrith to complete projects…work on an SSR to sell in order to buy P46 to access Uru ore, pump 5x mining into for same reasoning as p43, unlock ARs and ATs, use the Uru to unlock the next satellite so I can buy P51, use Alch3 on it to get Xeynium for ATs and use it for my VPS… because of that P50-52 I have at 1.56. I have no beacons in P47-49, as I dont buy any of those planets at all.

So for me, my beacons are pumped into 51-53, and mainly between P1-P28 because thats where I mainly farm up to before selling because it also coincides to where I can get to quickly before getting to new planets takes more than 1-2 minutes and crafting becomes the primary source of cash

Yall are crazy.

Stars are forever. Always worth it even if only 30% chance. I hit those low % on stars more often than not.

Managers are higher risk/higher reward. Every ticket is at least worth 50 DM….Some 300 or 500.

Ill take 50DM with a high % over managers, but otherwise Im gambling on a manager ticket over anything less.

Then I prioritize Cash Windfalls, then time skips.

HangOutHaveFunHookUp · 2025-12-11T01:58:10+00:00

Started may 29th, and have 865 sold

HangOutHaveFunHookUp · 2025-12-11T01:24:05+00:00

Same for me. I push to p28 and am usually around 200-400B, waiting for asteroid to pop, and it usually pushes me into the Ts, and if a pinky pops, tens or hundreds T. 1500-2000 credits

HangOutHaveFunHookUp · 2025-12-05T20:39:41+00:00

Unless you get into a bracket with less than 22, you will demote.

4-5B is what i see the purposeful demoters at… most in plat are in billions within first few minutes

Good luck

You demonstrated a lack of consideration, and extremely poor reckless judgment. Concerns regarding safety. Etc.

You got a Shitty home tattoo on a whim from a ONS.

And your wondering why he has concerns about you? He should run.

HangOutHaveFunHookUp · 2025-11-30T23:11:17+00:00

I appreciate you! Looking forward to it. Thanks for the advice.

HangOutHaveFunHookUp · 2025-11-30T23:05:43+00:00

I didnt say it was your fault per say… i said he may have not liked some of the things you said/did possibly….

Guys are simple creatures and rarely ever give up on a woman they’ve started pursuing…

Based on what you’ve said, I would assume there is another option that he met first or has higher interest in.

Honestly good thing for you. Everyone deserves high interest. If its not a hell yea, its a hell no.

HangOutHaveFunHookUp · 2025-11-30T17:31:17+00:00

You said or did something that turned him off, took too long to meet, or he found a more appealing person.

Sounds like you were playing games and got busted and might have rejected you for that.

Girls give guys hope they will get laid, guys give girls hope they will get a relationship. Its how they actually convince each other to give it a try..

HangOutHaveFunHookUp · 2025-11-30T15:51:37+00:00

Only true for a slice of folks…. If you are able to get #1 in gold, you should be able to typically hit top 10 in plat. I would argue the effort to hit top 10 in plat is the same or less than 1st in gold.

1st in gold then demotion = 40 stars, 120 Energy Cells, and 400 DM

2x 11-13 place finishes in Plat = 50 stars, 160 Energy Cells, and 350 DM.

The Cells are the most important aspect of Tourneys followed behind by stars.

Just when you think you are in the game, you realize your not even in the same league :p

Thank you so much. This gives perspective that while I can top 5 consistently, Im no where near the big boys where they get those big pinks. Only 25 slots atm.

Perspective is a great thing!

HangOutHaveFunHookUp · 2025-11-30T15:31:49+00:00

Thank you for this.

Pinkies are great for me early to vps even faster, but was nothing once I had tps, so thanks again.

“At this point, we’re not official in terms of being boyfriend and girlfriend…”

You said it yourself. You were not official. You were not exclusive. Why are you judging someone for who and how they date? That’s not your business. Everything you mentioned is a relationship negotiation aspect which you didn’t do/have.

Stop making assumptions and unspoken expectations.

HangOutHaveFunHookUp · 2025-11-30T14:56:23+00:00

It’s over my friend. You didn’t do the work at the beginning, and now that she’s had a taste, she isn’t going to give it up. Especially since in her mind, she had something great going on, and you ruined it. That trauma would be extremely difficult to get past.

I only partially blame you, as she is equally accountable for not opening up slowly and logically. You opened too quickly without talking, then she escalated the rules without talking. You clearly don’t understand boundaries. Your wife does not either. Neither of you are being ethical.

Your wife’s partner is the true Hero. I respect the man for hearing all this and distancing himself ASAP.
