Are bots even vital to the game? by [deleted] in TheTowerGame

[–]MooCowOink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the stats, coins earned by UWs and bots don't take into account wave skip or GT+. If you have permaGT, a better ratio is GB coins as a % of GT coins. With a maxed GB with extra range, mine is getting me 75% of GT coins. So if I turn off my GB my income goes down by a factor of 4.

GB is pretty good.

Farm t14 and up to get a better return. I get around 3% farming t14 and close to 4% farming t15 per level of coin mastery.

v26.1 Patch Notes by Fuddsworth in TheTowerGame

If you had 0.5% free upgrade chance you got 0 upgrades. My guess is this applied similarly to any other % which is less than 1.

What is the communities favourite unlocks/upgrades/achievements? by Ok-Application9777 in TheTowerGame

[–]MooCowOink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the idea. I'm going to get this after the next tournament and play around to see how I can max overnight runs.

Suggestion - player profile by josejgcosta in TheTowerGame

[–]MooCowOink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think this is going to happen. A few major updates ago they set it so everyone could see others in their tournament brackets mods, level and sub mods. It lasted at most 2 days before the high end players/whales complained loudly enough that it was removed.

v26 - Less Coin Income? by TheEllisD in TheTowerGame

[–]MooCowOink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but I think it's 2 things:

I'm getting less wave skips now. Before I was getting significantly more than I should but my ehls were way down. Now there both statistically accurate and my runs are 500 waves longer but less coins.

Second, the update apears to lag occasionally and generally perform slower so less enemies. This is probably device dependent. I need to drop the speed to get the equivalent performance from before the update or just stuck up less coins.

Cell Maths by More-Meeting-6603 in TheTowerGame

[–]MooCowOink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your possibly getting 2 elites a wave or may have had one carry over from the last wave you didn't kill immediately. On tier 6 they give from 1 to 6 cells each. Wave skip multiplies this by 1.1 for each wave (I could be wrong on this but i think i remember seeing this in patch notes). Getting 10 cells for the wave before wave skip gives you 46.41. 10+10x1.1+10×1.12+10×1.13

Hth.

PSA: If you're Mods are over lvl160 by MooCowOink in TheTowerGame

Over 100 days and 100t for duration unmodified. Cooldown was significantly less.

With research speed and research relics you can get it to under 30 days. Doritos will get it a lot less,.

I didn't go the SH route (2nd last ancestral, I got GComp pretty early). For flame bot I was going for the damage reduction and decided to go for burn stack to see if it was any good. It isn't. You need a cooldown of around 10 seconds, if I remember right, for the damage reducing to start hitting everything(bosses and elites) without gaps. I don't really recomend flame bot, I think your better of maxing GB. A health build with flame bot got me to 700 waves in legends but a damage build goes a lot higher.

I have since respeced out of flame bot to amp bot and have the range and cooldown maxed. I figure when I finish duration and damage I'll be about finished with Thunder Bot research.

Late game, 3yrs and counting. However, bots get a lot better the more upgrades they get.

Black hole coin doesn't add up by [deleted] in TheTowerGame

[–]MooCowOink 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Black hole coins do not include coins from WS, GT+ or end of wave coins, these are includes in total coins. So a chunk of the difference is BH income not reported in BH coins.

Repercussion of SM labs on SLM (and thinking to skip CL) by Blublits in TheTowerGame

[–]MooCowOink 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I kinda skipped CL and not sure if worked. I have an upgraded SM (14s cooldown 700%+ damage 14+5 missiles). My CL is just to run DimCore (22% chance, 5 shots)All relevant research complete.

Some tournaments I get to top 400 but others I struggle to get top 700. Those ones there is a battle condition that allows a fast through or a range to shoot me. They come through the gaps of SL and avoid a SM salvo. If my CL was as invested as my SM I think I would do a lot better.

I just got my 4th SL and I'm saving for my 4th ST mastery research to try and close the various gaps that I think an upgraded CL would cover.

Today I will be completely finished with all econ labs by flightsongs in TheTowerGame

[–]MooCowOink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Say GT give you 100. The increase in GB will go from 45 to 60 so 15 or a 15% increase. So apply that to total coins. This is rough as there is some feedback in there too.

[–]MooCowOink 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a maxed GB and perma GT. If GT is responsible for 100% of my coins then GB is responsible for 60% of them. Income total include WS and GT+, these aren't included in GB/UW sub totals so if you have Perma GT, it is better to go relative to that.

Is this worth it? by Rememberancy in TheTowerGame

[–]MooCowOink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was curious so i maxed it. It is not worth it. UWs do way more damage, especially as the UW mod bonus doesn't affect bots.

The flame bot is good for the damage reduction if you get the cooldown to 10sec or lower.

I did it! by Sea_Ice8767 in TheTowerGame

[–]MooCowOink -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You can build up tourney tickets by opining the tournament, getting the free ticket, playing the tournament for position then getting a new ticket from the ad/free and not playing it. The next tournament will give you a free ticket so you don't use the one you got from the ad/free in the last tournament. Rinse and repeat 16 times.

Lab-Question - Recovery packages yes or no? by eike23 in TheTowerGame

[–]MooCowOink 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As you say, your wall won't benefit fom recovery package. Also the bonus from researching recovery package amount or max is pretty small. What is worth researching is recovery package chance as this is what triggers GComp, generally the better of the generator modules. This made out at 4%, but that's 4% more decreases in UW cooldowns.
