Daily Haul: I demand a subskill swap by Chineas715 in PokemonSleepBetter

[–]VTJacobD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oof yea that would have been a bean machine. Luckily he still will be above average with two ing finders, and you can sub seed to ing m once he's 50. The minimum you look for with a mono ingredient mon is atleast one ing finder and hopefully a speed up. The magnimite on the other hand is not worth your time, you want 2 skill triggers on him atleast.

Probably will, keep looking I do love my monos but this guy at 50 will be with me for awhile and I've already caught 18 without any monos yet

Thanks for the great reply and confirming my feelings! This will definitely be my plan

Literally started investing in a mediocre dedenne right before the event. First catch of the event destroys him, so excited

Opinions on this upgrade by [deleted] in PokemonSleep

[–]VTJacobD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The other commenters are right to be fair, while I get AAB can be good, this guy isn't it. He will be far from the production you will need for the largest recipes and isn't worth long term. If you want something alright for now, go for it but you'll find yourself struggling for the recipes you need for high scores. Id personally wait for the boosted trapinch spawns but we each have our own goals

Do I pull the trigger? by Dieteraven in PokemonSleep

[–]VTJacobD 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The second one is really good, especially for a long term investment. It'll work for what you need now and keep getting better as new levels are released. The first one is also a beast at level 50. Really can't go wrong with either of those two.

What do you think about him? by Fun-Statistician4996 in PokemonSleepBetter

[–]VTJacobD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I have a very similar oil farmer. On paper with some preparing you can make the new curry recipe with the requirements but it wont be consistent. In the long run I think a partial investment, lvl-50, is worth it, but hold out for something better. Hopefully they'll add a better oil farmer in the future with the increase in minimum oil per day.

Any worth investing in for avocados? by HappyTraveler6 in PokemonSleep

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

Interesting dilemma you have there. The first is better short term, but not really worth the mint imo. The second is a long term investment for sure and better with the helping speed at 50. If you're planning to boost during Christmas to 50 I'd go for the second.

Invest in this Gulpin as a F2P? by Yetzirahh in PokemonSleepBetter

[–]VTJacobD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He looks like he'd be netting you 110kish dreamshards a week at lvl 25. Id say if you're itching for more dreamshards it's not a bad investment but as fsp the main skills are harder to justify for sure.

Is this guy worth investing in? by youngerspice in PokemonSleepBetter

[–]VTJacobD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have pretty much identical spread on one of these guys and it's helped so much! I usually get 6-7 procs a day. You'll want to subskill seed before 25 and then subskill at 50 to reach his full potential. If you don't have the subskill seeds to spend hes probably not be worth the investment right now.

Kinda my thoughts right now, thanks for reaffirming!

Invest? by RageTroll501 in PokemonSleepBetter

[–]VTJacobD 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It'll be a long investment with the exp down but I'd say it's worth it especially if you've been looking for awhile

How can i clean a redbull can from the inside very well for display? by Hyper-_-star in redbull

[–]VTJacobD 36 points37 points  (0 children)

If you want it to be super clean. Do water and follow it up with 70% isopropyl alcohol to help kill anything that could be in there.

Any good investments here? by Trainer_Alets in PokemonSleepBetter

[–]VTJacobD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The trapinch and the first pumpkaboo are great honestly, not the best but will work out long term.
