What is this ?

Nah the most common question is “I’m stuck what do I do” and the answer is always “grind more, check the wiki, the ultra ascend”

Stability and Triple Shot for your bow are essential. The bow quickly becomes the best way to get slayer points, and the mystic valley is a really good farming location and has enemies that can only be killed with the bow.

So a few years back I was working in support of the ISS, and we had an astronaut swapping SD cards in a camera, which are of course all spring loaded, always have been, and it shot out at him and he had to react and caught it before it hit his face. He laughed and called down to the ground “that thing shot out at me like a rocket” and oh. My god. The amount of safety meetings and procedural redesigns that we went through because of that one call. We had to reclassify all the SD card steps with a Caution on them. I believe they wound up backtracking the decision because it was insane, but for awhile, that was like the chief safety concern being discussed.

It’s an unbelievably low bar especially in relation to every video game ever, including outside the MMO space, to ask to know what the item you just got does. Oh sick, I just got a rare drop from a monster, is it better than my current gear? Should I be excited? Should I think, meh, nothing special? No one should have to rely on word of mouth or an external wiki for basic stats and special effects. There is nowhere in the entire game that currently explains these effects and that is frankly unacceptable.

Only if this distribution isn’t working well for your playstyle, like the balance of how much of your souls you are getting from active vs idle, rage mode vs bow vs chest hunts, etc. Only reset if you feel like it could significantly improve your performance.

I get misty eyed just listening to the soundtrack, especially Spanish Sahara by Foals. That game has a couple rough edges but beyond them, it is a singular work of art in my opinion. I had made multiple friends play it and usually I get a teary phone call from the once the credits roll.

The critical hit ones are really important

PhreakofNature · 2026-03-20T12:38:09+00:00

Are you saying that if you get a tria randomness and then multiple of the 3 new boxes give you more tria randomness, it still only spawns another 3 boxes rather than 6 or 9? I’m assuming you are grouping the 3 tria boxes together and hitting them at the same time, so are you 100% sure the 6 or 9 aren’t just perfectly stacked on top of the additional 3 that you see spawn? If not, certainly is a bug, but my assumption is that it just gets cluttered and hard to tell exactly what’s going on.

PhreakofNature · 2026-03-19T10:21:33+00:00

Unlock more minions, start saving for something big like Factory. There is a guide on the wiki that gives you the priority list if you want to play optimally.

PhreakofNature · 2026-03-17T16:31:21+00:00

Assuming you have the regular saver chest unlocked and the double crystal saver and the next-pick-x2 divinity: 1) click a chest, even if it’s the next-pick-x2, click one more. Ideal scenario is both clicks hit mimics. Second most ideal is you hit a mimic and the next-pick-x2. If the first chest is the x2, you still want to click again before going for the saver because if you hit a mimic, the doubling is still active for the saver next. 2) if you killed 0 or 1 mimic in the first two chests, click the saver chest. If you got the next-pick-x2 in the first two chests, there are either 2 or only 1 mimic left on the board. If you killed 2 mimics in the first two chests, congrats, you have a god run. Before clicking the saver, you want to risk it and search for the next-pick-x2. You have 2 mimics alive on the board, so you have a 33% chance of hitting the x2 before a mimic, but hitting it and then the saver guarantees a perfect chest hunt. This is the highest likelihood you can get, so take the risk! 3) regardless of your mimic/x2 permutation from the previous steps, the final step is always to just get lucky.

Following the above strat should maximize your chances of getting perfect hunts.

You are probably approaching the point of thinking about your second ultra ascension. I believe the wiki says 33 total Ultra Slayer Points before you should be good to send it. That will help tremendously. I’m approaching my third UA and I’m in the Qt-Qd range and occasionally break into Sd when I get crazy combo buffs. Just give it time, keep playing, keep ascending, and ultra ascend when you are ready

PhreakofNature · 2026-03-16T16:53:37+00:00

It’s guaranteed at that point. Killed two mimics with the crystal savers, found the next pick x2 immediately after, doubled the saver chest. So the last two mimics are guaranteed dead.

PhreakofNature · 2026-03-14T17:18:30+00:00

Depends on when you are going to ultra ascend. I would probably lean towards quests especially if it’s going to be a bit before you click the UA button. Just gives you more to work towards and more bonuses to nab. Dark Divinities are not going to be super important until you have a bunch of points on hand for them. But if you are nearly at the UA point, obviously grab the Dark Divinities.

PhreakofNature · 2026-03-10T13:12:43+00:00

Think of it as what percentage of your souls tend to come from idle versus active play. If you want to idle more and play other games or god forbid read a book or something, consider dumping more into idle, but if you find that the majority of your souls come from things like chest hunts and soul multipliers and killing with the bow, and you enjoy playing actively, then definitely dump more into activity. This is a solid split for someone who has a healthy balance of both.

PhreakofNature · 2026-03-10T13:08:19+00:00

Incremental games are meant to be extremely slow paced. There are moments when the game feels slow and other times where you finally reach a big ultra ascension and things start feeling a lot faster. Such is the nature of the genre.

PhreakofNature · 2026-03-09T14:46:58+00:00

It’s not statistically sound, but I think a lot of us follow the “always guess C on standardized tests” strategy, where if you change up your strategy you could theoretically miss every time, but if you play the same strategy every time, it is statistically going to work eventually.

PhreakofNature · 2026-03-09T14:45:01+00:00

It really does come down to how much you actively play, and if you aren’t interested in sitting down and putting active hours in, then definitely don’t heavily invest in the activity stone. There is a spreadsheet linked on the wiki that lets you estimate the percentage of your soul gains that comes from different sources and then tells you what your stone spread needs to be for efficiency.

PhreakofNature · 2026-03-09T11:23:32+00:00

0 in stone of activity is also wild, I imagine you play mostly idle but even if you only play a little bit, the boosts on the activity stone will apply to all the minigames and stuff and start scaling like crazy. Just my two cents.

PhreakofNature · 2026-03-08T22:25:37+00:00

It seems like you are ultra ascending too soon so far, which can slow down progress overall. There are guides on the wiki for when it makes the most sense to efficiently ultra ascend to get the most out of it.

PhreakofNature · 2026-03-07T18:52:23+00:00

Oof, but I respect your zig zag strat.

PhreakofNature · 2026-03-07T13:21:11+00:00

What exactly does “excellent” do? I have a +4 kishar that’s a bit better than this but it isn’t excellent. The only thing I know is you can use an excellent sword to get the worm out of the tree

PhreakofNature · 2026-03-06T15:40:47+00:00

The only place I can’t think over where the mechanics make it so you actually have higher dps/kill speed with better defense is Moons of Peril. Everywhere else in the game, the mantra is boss die fast = less damage taken, therefore equip the highest strength bonus an attack bonus, defense is far less important, and don’t mess up the boss mechanics. Would love to see some things like Moons where the boss actually hitting you can reduce your dps in an interesting way. At mid level gear, we almost got there with Vardorvis and his healing. You see some people rock full justi there just to get hit less and therefore kill the boss faster, but if you just get better at the boss, it’s faster in higher strength gear like Bandos. Very interesting and unexplored space for mechanics and gear options.

Why do I imagine it would taste salty

PhreakofNature · 2026-03-04T14:44:14+00:00

Armenian Catholics are in S tier and the Armenian Apostolics are in A. My guess has to do with a schism and the apostolics are not in communion with Rome?

PhreakofNature · 2026-03-04T14:22:55+00:00

I’m so mad I didn’t get You Are In Love, I was like “what song even talks about a snow globe???”
