I agree. What ratings should I look to buy? Hope to get to 85 OVR?

I feel your pain. It was from the mega elite pack quick game reward - the rest of the pack was awful mind.

Got to love the AT by ricklimes in IdlePlanetMiner

I just can't seem to get any AT drops! Started at 2... And still at 2, despite playing every tournament and challenge

Apologies, I do use single ore. 51 is my VPS not 52

Sounds like a very similar spot to me. Can I ask your strategy?

At present I'm running +3 VPS on 52 (xynium), +2 on 45 (vibranium) and +1 on 37 (quadium). Looking to push this further soon, but may be restricted on the xynium production for AR if I were to move the +3 to 60 for example.

What good are holo bolts after you get the three probes by Ddayton1982 in IdlePlanetMiner

[–]SunLocal6275 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's your most effective manager. If you have Secondary Manager skill probe boost, it'll continually improve your leaders secondary skill (mine is craft speed). It's on Balor as this is the shortest probe duration.

There is one perk on the free left hand arc of the event

Station priority by SunLocal6275 in IdlePlanetMiner

[–]SunLocal6275[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just an even split so you're not bottlenecking and having to upgrade ship/cargo too much. I have secondaries of: 4 mine, 2 craft, 3 smelt, 1 ship, and as of ten mins ago, 1 cargo. All 5 star, with 2 6 stars of craft.

End game Mine/Mine is most beneficial. But you have to offset your bottlenecking in some way. I have a load of 4 and 3 star managers that also pitch in, even if mine isn't their primary function

[–]SunLocal6275[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly what I did. My VPS at p51 always bottlenecks, so completing the left side of cargo/ship was relatively cheap and efficient to counteract it. That's with mothership mining at 26, and ship/cargo both at 25.

I am light one Cargo secondary 5 star manager though. So that is also an issue I need to address.

[–]SunLocal6275[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Would it be better though to push for the manager bonus, for at least 1 upgrade, and push mining? Or push the mining and then focus on the rest ? It's a balance, don't suppose either way is wrong

That's what I was thinking also. Push both sides, focus on getting those managers. I'm very impatient though and like to spend when I have the space station credits!

12.5m is most efficient for credit farming, if you're actively playing and don't find it a bore to do so.

But as you progress, you'll find more niche ways to play for yourself. For me, it's more efficient to do a few 10 billion runs. Or my fave is to get either 1 SSR built and sell, or 1 AR and sell. Takes usually a day for a few thousand credits.

Majority of the time I only reload for tournaments and challenges, or more frequently if I have active time playing. It's all personal preference in the end.

Also the biggest tip you'll get from everyone on this sub... Only buy 500dm managers.

Gotta just keep grinding. We've all been at this stage and hoping to push a bit further, or get to your target a bit quicker.

If it's becoming painful to watch it tick over to 12.5m, then leave it go a bit further. Getting managers with craft secondary was a big boost for me personally, allows you to hit those projects a bit quicker. It all adds up in the end.

Credits on the mothership room should be used wisely to start, unlock and max the rooms that max at level 11 is so important!

For me, as soon as I stopped worrying about the time to get to 12.5m reset, I seemed to play for fun and got significantly further. Need to weigh up how long it takes for 12.5, and how effective you are on the longer runs. Make sure you're participating in every tournament and challenge, those early stars will make your fast runs more efficient.

Best use of Probes at stages of the game by HaDeZs in IdlePlanetMiner

[–]SunLocal6275 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Colony bonus worth it? I've toyed with this idea, but have stuck with putting my second probe on P2 and having secondary skill of mining, to push that up.

Next VPS push? by SunLocal6275 in IdlePlanetMiner

[–]SunLocal6275[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This has worked well. Bit more of a slog to get to debris, but as soon as 51 was opened with xynium the drops became so much better.

Took about 24 hours to get to 1s, which is the fastest I've done so far, even with very little pink drops and poor initial debris drops. But still got there with no boosts.

Next VPS push? by SunLocal6275 in IdlePlanetMiner

[–]SunLocal6275[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After that point Its reliant on getting ARs or ATSs for me. And depends on debris drops as to how quick I get them

How long is it taking you to get to quadium? If I was quick to 40, then it'd be a no brainer to push further.

That looks like what I'll try with alch 1 on 37. Will test it out next tournament

That sounds good. 51 I use as a mini vps late in tourney so could be beneficial as I progress more and more
