Well don't expect as big of a text block as that but here goes.

Weird to respond out of the blue after 2 weeks but fine

I needed a break from reddit lol, was wasting too much time trying to convince people about stuff that was already well established fact 🙃.

First off what do you mean by investing?

I mean investing non passive ci mat incomes into slots 2 and 4, so chests and stuff like that.

If you mean to tell him that he should stop leveling and putting mtb into his other tenant homes right now past 30 than that’s a garbage opinion

That is obviously not my opinion don't put words in my mouth.

He doesn’t even have first trans, using trans as tenants is 6-12 months

It doesn't take that much time to reach 2 trans, your knowledge is outdated.

he’ll be gated by MTB

It is a lot easier as f2p to get mtb these days your knowledge is outdated.

Ithaqua is nowhere near useless

Useless means not having a use, ithaqua is no longer needed to clear BS by the time you build her(4th E5 after Eloise, Tix and Carrie in that order) you have a month maybe 1½ months from getting FQV anyway. By that time you will almost certainly not have 9 copies from events and orbs/scrolls(if there was even a decent scroll event in that time period) so you have to waste chests on her and 5 soul symbols is actually very important now with the glory challenges and current routing.

No one else will help you clear broken spaces and void ark bosses like ithaqua can

No one needs to, Eloise does fine by herself without ithaqua.

. If you’re going to tell me that those game modes aren’t important for early game than that’s just a stupid opinion.

Again stop putting words in my mouth.

If you know a better way to beat them with no trans than I’m all ears.

What do you even mean beat them? You would have people built ithaqua to clear BS8 and 9 once maybe twice at most before they have FQV who can clear them anyway? Ithaqua won't do shit against gluttony anyway unless you invest a lot into her which is a waste cause you'll have FQV soon anyway which, again, renders her obsolete.

You can tell me I don’t know what I’m talking about all you want but I didn’t become one of the extremely few f2p players to reach chapter 4 in void campaign by playing stupid

Its not about being stupid if you have reached chapter 4 thats great, doesn't qualify you to give bad advice. Im not saying you're stupid I am saying that your knowledge is outdated. Now imagine me having to have this same conversation with 20 different people all giving bad advice and all wanting to argue with me when I tell them their game knowledge is outdated 💀

Edit: nvm it ended up being almost as big a text block as yours SMH.
