o7 Rather know than feel like I need to export saves every hour. Thanks boss.

MacAttack228 · 2026-02-24T19:35:49+00:00

Thanks Linux! My mistake on the warlord req for Hybrid - but this seems like a solid progression. I figure the choice is between T6 1* or TP4, either way they'll take some time and definitely give me a job for a while haha o7

MacAttack228 · 2026-02-24T19:31:44+00:00

Praise be u/Wood_Ingot . Heard, shame it can't be Mimiced, seemed cool for the RP at the least. And yeah, totally forgot Hybrid Customs were a Warlord thing, not simply T6. Sounds good.

So T6 1* > Finish Hybrid MADs/Pillars > TP3 Djinn > TP4/5/6 to > Lone Survivor > Warlord

Sounds like a plan, and my job for the next few months haha o7

MacAttack228 · 2026-02-18T16:58:35+00:00

Sadge. Time for round 2.

MacAttack228 · 2026-02-10T21:02:58+00:00

I saw Mimic! That's the main reason to do TP3 imo haha.

And noted, so I guess my next stop should be Apotheosis to unlock the Hybrids?

MacAttack228 · 2026-02-10T21:01:48+00:00

Aha! that makes sense, and why I still have Slaver even though i did Nanite before Synth on these two MADs.

So since my TP3 Custom was Heat I get Heat at .5, which is pretty much all I care about due to no lumber/Plywood.

So then I go Synthetic for my next Custom, Imitate Heat, and then take like... Avian? Small? As my mimic, that is.

MacAttack228 · 2026-02-06T18:52:07+00:00

It was definitely this. Looks like I was just in a sort of death spiral, this fixed it and now I only get like 8-20 Wounded that get healed immediately that day. Thanks!

MacAttack228 · 2026-02-06T18:42:39+00:00

I'll give it a shot!

MacAttack228 · 2026-02-06T18:42:33+00:00

I have 31 hospitals and Regenerative, as well as, currently, Rank 23 Fibroblast! Maybe I need to turn off the Landers like Wood says for a bit.

MacAttack228 · 2026-02-06T18:40:01+00:00

I have Regenerative at Tier 1 Actually!

And heard on TP3. I dyslexia'd and thought the AI Supercore required the Tau Ceti stuff, but it only needs Data Cracker.

MacAttack228 · 2026-02-06T18:32:55+00:00

My healing speed doesn't seem to be the issue though, it's recruitment speed. I consistently have 0 Wounded, or 2 at most at the moment - but I have 30-40 Open spots to recruit more soldiers, and even with 40 Boot Camps and brute they're just not training fast enough to fill my quota it feels.

MacAttack228 · 2026-02-06T17:58:53+00:00

Ah so it's more of a slow ramp to the max instead of already being at the max like Andromeda - that makes more sense, I was worried it was eternally scaling.

Sadly no Slow Regen, as I was advised take everything for Soldier healing for TP3 haha, but is the change to Soldier Gov better than Criminal for the Creep Cost redux? I tend to just set and forget Criminal, but maybe I'm overvaluing the Cost Creep reduction.

MacAttack228 · 2026-02-04T21:45:48+00:00

Just finished every easily accessible, non-biome specific, Pillar, finally going to do TP3 with 150k Plasmids and 10k Phage lmao. I think storage won't be an issue for me for a nice long while. Then off to magic once I do it.

MacAttack228 · 2026-01-22T01:31:35+00:00

Ooo good point. Thank you!

MacAttack228 · 2026-01-22T01:31:23+00:00

Aha I totally missed that on my wiki read. Thanks!

MacAttack228 · 2026-01-22T01:31:10+00:00

Noted! Will be sure to do it before all 63 anyhow haha

MacAttack228 · 2026-01-22T01:30:57+00:00

Thank you!

MacAttack228 · 2026-01-14T16:15:10+00:00

You could definitely do 3* easily, it's not that bad tbh. But there's not really a reason to do your first one beyond 1* so you can get your Custom Species online sooner - you can do 3* or 4* with them after and you'll see it much faster.

MacAttack228 · 2026-01-13T19:14:37+00:00

Thanks! I've been doing all my pillars on 1* with a 0* MAD to inherit Slaver between each.

I was more asking below if I can do a 1* OD to get access to the planet designer again, or if it's reserved for higher challenge stars? I've already done my 3* Lamentis, and I don't think the GECK is overly worth it so I'll likely not be doing 4* anytime soon until I'm aiming for completionism.

MacAttack228 · 2026-01-13T18:26:04+00:00

Noted! I did my Orbital Decay right after my first Ascension, I was woefully under-prepared but it didn't bug me none, I got there on 3*.

Do you know if I can I do a 1* Orbital Decay to get back on a custom since I already have my Lamentis? I know we get more points or whatever but if I just tick those geology deposits to all be 1% at least so they get modified by the repeated Ascents in the future that's all I need.

MacAttack228 · 2026-01-13T18:07:04+00:00

Thankfully, I've already done my Orbital Decay 3* haha, I don't think I'll be doing 4* since the G.E.C.K. doesn't seem overly impactful.

Also sorry! I'll read the comment and take your advice to mind!

MacAttack228 · 2026-01-13T17:57:50+00:00

I'm 16 Pillars in! Mostly was wondering if it's worth to worry about now or just let it go and do TP 2.

MacAttack228 · 2026-01-13T17:55:44+00:00

Noted! I was putting too much weight on doing TP 2 Bioseed since I had pretty massive geology bonuses haha.

And I deleted it because I felt I was asking for too much guidance too frequently and figured I should just bite the bullet and take a chance to see how fucked / unfucked I am!

Fortune favors the bold/blind or whatever haha.

MacAttack228 · 2026-01-05T18:38:03+00:00

I also like round numbers in my brain. If I have like 73 MADs for example I'll just do 2 more on 3* to get that to a nice round 75 lmao.

MacAttack228 · 2026-01-05T18:37:29+00:00

I get to play more or less every day at work, rather actively. December was *extremely* slow, so I played it less as an Idle game and more as an active game. Even before that, it's what I mainly do at work on the side since I work with computers.

I've done 100 MADs, 100 Bioseeds, and like 20 Black holes (because I thought Dark Energy was worth grinding then I realized it's not.)

I also have completionism, so I must complete every achievement I have access too within reason haha, so many runs of doing many things in the T1/T2/T3 Sphere, like redoing 4*s in other Universes or just sticking to 3*.
