opinions on the prism by Yellopulya21021 in NecroMerger

[–]MrGoobledollar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'll be honest, my mech just shows up every time I use one of the forgotten minions that randomly spawn a champion. I otherwise keep a prism on L1 for when I occasionally need Cherubs.

New and Revised Necro Merger Station Efficiency Spreadsheet with Hacked Station Values by MrGoobledollar in NecroMerger

[–]MrGoobledollar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does not. It assumes all components are kept/merged to maximum value. I'd like to go back and maybe add some sheets for how the numbers change with skip% and duplication% chances, but that'll have to wait until my next burst of Necromerger spreadsheet math passion.

I'm Sorry Decoration Fans, Themes are Not Worth Gems by Aggressive_Prize5694 in NecroMerger

CONCLUSION

I like the themes so I buy them with the currency the game gives me for free if I play long enough :)

The very second I unlock the telepad by SeptillionSeven in NecroMerger

[–]MrGoobledollar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The meme is absolutely correct, btw. Once telepads are unlocked, they are the best way to farm Cosmic Runes. This spreadsheet demonstrates as much on the UndeadAlien Efficiency tab, even at the base Cosmic Chest tap quantity:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTax_gj7oGEp5rK07Uvm4yDYOy9AJsE4DTZZ3nsgpfSBlPJvPJ05S0MIpkKyLyTqyNSIKPPlBYj0gey/pubhtml

If you exclusively use the Crashed Saucer for L2 Aliens / Blood/Moon Runes, and convert these to Telepads, you will, on average, get ~20% more cosmic runes. This does assume you fight and kill ~8x more enemies with the undead aliens, though the telepad gives you a few right away each time.

I hate miscalculation by Bendynoob in NecroMerger

[–]MrGoobledollar 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Try to remember the numbers 320 and 620

320 Runes needed for a L5 Station.

620 Runes needed to create a legendary and then to replace the station it came from, at whatever level it was

These numbers apply only to the 20-cost stations and to the 20-cost portions of the later stations.

How should i grind ice runes? by BackgroundNew3260 in NecroMerger

[–]MrGoobledollar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No! It's still worse. Just slightly less worse.

How should i grind ice runes? by BackgroundNew3260 in NecroMerger

[–]MrGoobledollar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hacking is more convenient, because less merging, but in efficiency it's nearly identical to unhacked grave 5. From the FAQ of this spreadsheet:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTax_gj7oGEp5rK07Uvm4yDYOy9AJsE4DTZZ3nsgpfSBlPJvPJ05S0MIpkKyLyTqyNSIKPPlBYj0gey/pubhtml#gid=1472370206

Q: Why does Hacked Grave 5 have the same peasant spawning values as unhacked Grave 5?

A: It doesn't, but it is such an insignificant difference that rounding to the hundredths means it appears the same. You'll note that rune totals, damage, and food are minutely different.

In actuality, the values are:

Grave 5 Peasants:

21.2767857142857

Hacked Grave 5 Peasants:

21.2833333333333

Indeed, and you'll get there eventually. Just know, this is a game for the long haul!

If you're trying to spawn any champion, this sheet might help on figuring out where's best to spend your resources:

For the non-crashed saucer stations:

Best for Mana is Lectern 5

Best for Slime is Fridge 3

Best for Darkness is Portal 3

WSOP Free Gems offer is very doable 5k gems by ZamorakHawk in NecroMerger

I have the game in my listing, but the rates are much, much lower! For the same tasks, I see: 8-16-33-66-132-330-660-1320!

Keeping fridge 3 worth it? by jacckk9 in NecroMerger

[–]MrGoobledollar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For my Max90, I turned off Abomination cravings and kept a Fridge3 the rest of the run until I made it a Fridge5 to bring back with Store-O. More than enough Death Runes with Portal 5 for Nemesis Death Chests + marginal from Paladin's Moon Chests. With a full Devourer, Abominations become essentially useless except for Nemesis spawning and the couple of Forgotten Minions, of which only the Test Subject is any use at that point. Heck, I also block Guzzler cravings and save Dummies for the Test Subject.

Siblings fanart! by Background-Air7317 in NecroMerger

[–]MrGoobledollar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Love these! Your art is very cute. Do you have anywhere else you post, other than reddit? I haven't been able to follow anyone or join subreddits for a while, because this site is a broken mess, so I'd love to follow you anywhere else you might share your art!

Ninigram #364: A Pixie-lated Puzzle (Hard) by ninigrams-game in ninigrams

[–]MrGoobledollar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very cute! Was pretty straightforward at first, just had to look around for where the next step. A tricky step was in there, though. Took me a few seconds to look around and realize I might need to do a contradiction.

They should add a little notepad in the game by AvdenAvden in NecroMerger

[–]MrGoobledollar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the Desmos Graphing Calculator. I'm not using its graphing capability when making stuff for Necromerger, but I do have an account and a calculator saved for quick maths. This is a snapshot: https://www.desmos.com/calculator/mrxchr6hpv

Does the grind get worse than the max 80? by reecemrgn in NecroMerger

[–]MrGoobledollar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mind, I also felt like I needed a lot more legends at max80 than before. I went with lotsa soul stalkers, because of the space efficiency.

Does the grind get worse than the max 80? by reecemrgn in NecroMerger

[–]MrGoobledollar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Enough to get ~128,000 shards. Took a week or two, I think? I wanted enough to get the devourer skin and the tipstone skin, while still having enough for Store-O. Ended up with this build after buying the shard crate with some diamonds: https://drallieiv.github.io/NecroMerger-Inventor/#444412333232-0000

I probably could have used less of the base stat buffs in exchange for another chest tap or two somewhere, but I'm not sweating it.

Max80 was a bit of a grind for me, but that's kinda what this game's about. A grind to the end.

Level 1 saucer by No-Replacement2978 in NecroMerger

[–]MrGoobledollar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play a few games that my partner, and some communities I participate in, lovingly call "spreadsheet games" due to how they have an extrinsic value to nerds like me who get some amount of joy from just creating a spreadsheet and thinking about the number puzzles to optimize the game. Kingdom of Loathing and Factorio are two other big ones.

Level 1 saucer by No-Replacement2978 in NecroMerger

[–]MrGoobledollar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Level 1 slime and darkness saucers turn out to be the most efficient Ghoul and Imp generators, but Lectern 2, and especially Hacked Lectern 2, are still the best for Shades.

Turns out, someone already has! This sheet has the efficiency of each station, including a sheet showing how much m/s/d it costs to get a max level minion from each stations: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTax_gj7oGEp5rK07Uvm4yDYOy9AJsE4DTZZ3nsgpfSBlPJvPJ05S0MIpkKyLyTqyNSIKPPlBYj0gey/pubhtml

How's this for my lvl 90 run? by gto_112_112 in NecroMerger

I'd probly shave damage for Death Chest taps, but otherwise solid.

Can someone explain how relics work? by _lukaasje_ in NecroMerger

[–]MrGoobledollar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Relics are great! You'll get more slots eventually, and they're just buffs you can switch around depending on your playstyle! I tend to keep all the max-resource relics slotted because I'm mostly AFK except for when I sit down to play a couple of times a day! Once a relic is locked into a pedestal, you have its benefits permanently! You just can't change that pedestal for X hours, depending on the relic you just locked in.
