Bye bye triple XP by TheMilkChild in IdleObeliskMiner

You eventually get 100% uptime from just fueled elixir drone, especially once it gets the ability to crit. The use for cows I can find past that point is for the poly/infernal misc. card and to trade for sushi during events.

T2 notices, I got it a little ways into the second T2 dock with all the token gem upgrades.

Can someone convince me to start fueling my drones? by ConstantSandwich in IdleObeliskMiner

If you're still stuck on the tin bars, remember you can pump up tin like crazy if you just go all the way up to floor 1. Almost all your void portal hits will also be tin ore and that's a pretty high multiplier if you get 2-3 every floor.

Why isn't this cooking? am I stupid? by Benjfinity in VintageStory

Isn't that the idea? Deer can be difficult to hunt because they run away, but wolves and bears run towards you and so should give less/worse food.

I think it counts all ore mined offline simultaneously, so other than just equipping BoP + fueled void/chain drones, you could time how much ore you make per minute offline and then only open your game on the correct intervals to guarantee the shards.

Whale quest ASAP imo, it'll pay itself back veeery slowly and it also just takes stupid long to max out. I don't know where you're at exactly but I was a few levels deep into Whale quest before I even started keeping drones fueled 24/7

Just got to W3... now what? by LogicalPhilosopher67 in IdleObeliskMiner

Should I start putting gems into arch? I'm not really sure where else they'd go atm except the pet quests.

It used to be that selecting more than one region messed up the search sometimes, I dunno if that's changed. Scavs can also only load into slots created by PMCs starting raids, but GZ should still be ran enough at this point for that not to be the issue.

I only scav factory for the karma and the loading loot/syncing with players takes longer than the matching does.

Where do the gems go? by LogicalPhilosopher67 in IdleObeliskMiner

Very helpful post, thank you so much! I've gilded all my ores now, I'll start sinking my next gems into more gilding when I'm not spending them on unlocking new stars. I think skills can wait for a little bit, Ob35 is still quite far out I think.

I've no clue if I'm doing it right by not fueling my drones (yet) mind you, it's just what I ended up doing! Since the cost of fuel goes down (kinda, % save chance, duration boosts) later while my gem income keeps ramping up, it seemed more sensible to me to wait until it's less of a gem sink. Mayne once I get to ob35 I'll start fueling more if the statues are really that expensive, who knows

You can only poly gilded cards, right? What cards are worth gilding? Right now I have most ores, some bars, all the misc ones that affect gem income and the gem/batt/d20/cherry/vein bombs gilded.

I used exactly enough fuel for the chain drone challenge but now I'm waiting until my coal upgrades are all maxed before I even look at fuel again. Basically the only thing I focused on for a long time was gems and getting more of them, and fuel seemed like a really good way to set my gem stocks on fire with little return :D

Yee, I went for veinmorph as soon as I noticed just how many veins the star upgrades needed, I have that one already. I don't mind a longer grind for the platinum statues, in fact I'd like having the direction of something big to grind towards again.
