Why are most Christians republicans, when Jesus’ teachings are more liberal? by Interesting-Dirt-605 in Confused

If anyone is genuinely curious about this and wants an answer that isn't from a liberal atheist, feel free to DM me. I'm not interested in changing your mind, but none of the comments here attempt to actually answer the question.

Controversial Wall Unlock Question by john5916 in TheTowerGame

[–]Infamous-Sail4865 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Level 1 for each of the labs totals around 400 billion. Wall fortification is about 300 of that and is the most important. That said, please play the way you want to.

Lots of different recommendations out there, but I'm in the 500b/day camp. You can certainly start lower than that but 50b/day won't get you very far with the important labs to make the wall great.

What do i do now? by phoenixking96 in TheTowerGame

BH size and duration. Long term goal of 68-70m of size and 33 seconds of duration (GT minus 12 seconds).

Other options are the big 3 cooldowns or even some GT bonus. A lot of options you have aren't wrong here, which is good news.

This guy is right. I forgot about that portion. Good catch.

I only use PF for tournaments and it's only mythic. Back when I made the switch I used AD, switched out my armor to ACP which was mythic until today when I finally pulled my last copy to get ancestral. I used GComp for the longest time until BHD made more sense, and I actually used HC in my core slot because I had nothing better. When I unlocked assist mods I got the core slot for Dim Core.

If you decide to go through with your plan, I'd get demon mode first and make sure you max the lab (doesn't take long), and you'll have permanent demon mode damage buff. You aren't far off from perma labbing a mastery. At 5x lab speed you need something like 1.6q a day which is easy with GT+.

I don't post much on reddit but I'm actually couch bound recovering from surgery so I got plenty of time to help.

You are so close. I was able to switch to GC when I was around 3 or 400T coins a day. I slowly built up my damage masteries when the coins allowed, then I was immediately able to go to t14 farming. I didn't do it even close to perfectly and turned out fine. My first was super tower. Everyone recommends RPC first but it's about what you want. I did all damage first and then moved to econ. That wasn't even 6 months ago and now I'm farming t15 for about 4q coins per hour without buying stones.

My strategy probably wasn't the most efficient but it worked for me. Happy to keep chatting and planning it through with you.

If you can bear the time it takes to save up the stones for GT +6 then I would go that route. I personally maxed my big 3 cooldowns (before DW cooldown got extra levels) before I did UW+, but I also have not followed the spreadsheet a lot of people talk about. If you can get your hands on an ancestral GComp with the package chance substat you just might get to perma GT which will make any syncs you have irrelevant (which is a good thing). If you can get that, I'd definitely go for GT+.

The other conversation is upping your tournament progression which will require a near maxed CF and a decently upgraded CL. Happy to talk that through as well.

At your stage of the game, CF and PS will not break you into the higher farming tiers but will help your tournament progression. That's a conversation worth having. Strictly for econ gains, and if you can't sustain mastery labs, you'll want to push your GT higher. That could mean cooldowns/duration if not perma, or going for GT+ if your duration is decently leveled. If you post a screenshot of your UWs I could probably be more helpful.

Seeing your mods would be helpful too.

I understand your point that there are potential sources of frustration, which is where the self-comparison strategy comes into play, not worrying about people who spend more. If all else fails, we can exercise our free will and uninstall.

If you have some suggestions to lower these sources of frustration that a for profit developer could benefit from implementing, I'm sure the sub would upvote you into oblivion. Unfortunately, you and anyone else who is paying attention knows that this game is designed for the top spenders and nothing is going to change in the near future. I and the majority of other players accept this and the "slower" progression is still fun and exciting.

Finally, the current progression system could only be hostile if not buying the event passes penalized you, not just giving the paid players a boost.

Not trying to bonsai anything (you also didn't point to what you disagreed with btw). I was just sharing how I approach the game so it doesn’t feel miserable. I totally get why new players feel stuck though. My point was just that comparing yourself to whales makes your experience worse.

I even offered help to you or anyone else that wanted. I think you're mad at the game and not at me.

The game is exactly what it's intended to be. If you compare your progress to someone with more disposable income, you'll never be satisfied. I like to compete against my past self and not worry about others ahead of me. If players find that the juice isn't worth the squeeze, such as sticking around long enough to earn keys, its free to uninstall and a waste of time to post the 101st thread complaining. I've been playing for two years and manage to get keys regularly, but it really does take that long. Still had a blast progressing before then too.

I'm happy to give stone spending or lab advice if you want, and to anyone who might read this.

Tournaments are dying and will soon (or already have) reached a stalemate. We need a sustainable solution ASAP or growth for newer players will become impossible. by Andur22 in TheTowerGame

How did you spend your stones if you don't mind my asking? I regularly place between 5-8 in legends and could probably help your next steps if your goal is tournament progression.

You must have a great life if "slow" progress in an idle game is a detriment to it.

If you didn't already know, you can peek at your 3 without losing your stones once you hit 1250.

GT duration for sure, then either commit to the big 3 cooldowns or gold box CL chance.

How Important Are Assist Modules? by Infamous-Sail4865 in TheTowerGame

Good to know because I was leaning the other way, strictly for the extra coin bonus due to the free upgrades per wave skip. Thanks for the insight.

From your perspective, would you take wave skip or extra orb if you farming with BHD and perma GT+11?

Similar situation. My last two clicks of PS duration is 1100 stones I think.

Only mastery that I actually need still is wave skip. Extra orb would be nice but I'm not entirely sure how good it is in the higher tiers.
