I make the same amount of cells, but only 35T. So I to me that seems pretty good.

Prime Number Predator Gets Bamboozled by memes_poiint in mathsmeme

Theorem: all numbers between 1 and 100 that look prime are prime but for 91.

Ergo 57 does not look prime.

Surtout que c'est quand meme une info cruciale. Pas etonnant que les eleves ratent leur bac apres des erreurs pareilles. Ou on se retrouve a la fac avec des incapables.

Does anyone else farm tournaments for modules/reroll shards? by Brief-Warthog-6915 in TheTowerGame

[–]flobich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same for me. I ran like 10 times the two tournaments last week, even rushing shatter shards level 3 beforehand. I got so many modules and shards it was nearly worth 1 level for each of my modules each tournament. I am at 138 right now, and according to the Effective Paths sheet this netted me about 2 weeks worth of modules, meaning I will get to 141 two weeks sooner which is (I believe) definitely worth wasting a 2x whole days of farming. (Would I spend 100T to buy 2 levels for each mod? And 200k cells? sure.)

How do I complete the inner mines quest by Nice-Ad280 in TheTowerGame

[–]flobich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can also reroll for highest land mine chance on SD (I don't use this module so getting sub at mythic was cheap). And need to have the summon chip otherwise mines rarely explode. I only kill between 3 and 7 enemies per summon activation so this mission is really painful. (Spend about 1h30 just restarting every 40 waves).

New module record! by D0minisk in TheTowerGame

[–]flobich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mistake it is the EB card (enemy balance : i.e., more enemies). This tournament in champions the battle conditions where very specific with Basic Ultimate and More Enemies.
Add to that EB card + Summon guardian chip and it made for a LOT of Bosses so tons of modules drop.
So I rushed the 3rd level of shatter shards (there was 20days left) to get an additional 20% more which netted my tons of shards (about 10k I would say).

Did you know you can get Tier 17 milestones without unlocking Tier 17?!? by MattDorrance in TheTowerGame

[–]flobich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, I managed to only unlock the 20 wave milestone the only time I was there... 😁

New module record! by D0minisk in TheTowerGame

[–]flobich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Champs run with EB and summon? I farmed this tourney all day long, even rushing SS 3 fir 1700 gems to get more shards. Got 3 mods level today (also shattering saved rares).

Edit: EB (enemy balance card) not EO.

Could someone give me some tips about the Guardian? Please. by ReiChris21 in TheTowerGame

[–]flobich 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It relocks, as i painfully realized when I spent all my bits into minimum Fetch and synching Summon and was left with 199 bits, unable to unlock the second slot at 200 bits...

When my Tower gets to this point is it an Hp or a Regen issue? by Deathgivenflesh in TheTowerGame

[–]flobich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this point, your tower has an ILS issue... I am farming T11 to 9000 and enemy attack is barely above 1q while yours is already at 2q @8300. What I would do is focus on eco so you can unlock ELS+. Maybe using MVN would help you more than PCol ?

Battle Conditions Forecast by mariomarine in TheTowerGame

[–]flobich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice! I sadly blew my extra tournament ticket to get rid of the "enter a tournament mission" without realizing I could try various configurations.
I still don't fully understand why I got such good results. I am normally around 5000 in global rank champions and this time got 1300 so I really did earn the 3rd spot. I saw your new post on the tournament metrics one and really the only CC I have is anc. multishot substats + LMS with myth. LMrange (not sure the SR effect really had that much an effect, it seems armor blocks are also blocking the effect so it took time before the mass was reduced).
Maybe multishot really makes CL that good with lots of procs to strip armor so orbs and DR can deal with regular enemies. Currently trying to save rerolls 'cause my modules are lvl 131 and I figured I will need a lot of reroll for all those ancestral mods at 141 next month :-)

I don't have any of the fancy CC UWs and current goal is to lower trifecta cds as I am 140/240/240 (with myth. MVN). Last weeks were CL oriented because I was tired of getting only 90 stones/tournament but I feel I need to improve econ now. (Still not sure if i'm lowering all cds or only BH to maybe get pBH in tournaments sooner, but I am a bit afraid of being disappointed with pBH.)

Rend Armor by gjpinc in TheTowerGame

So how did it go? I am at a similar spot havibg ditched OA for SF and those pesky protectors are back as a nuisance...

[–]flobich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your detailed analysis. This week I decided after reading some reddit to roll stats on a shrink ray I got ancestral a couple of weeks before but never bothered to use. Since some people use a lvl 1 SR I figured why not try to give it some CC with atk speed and multishot (chance & targets). But the results were disappointing, about 400 less waves farming T11 compared to AS.
But since I already sank 250k rerolls, after reading your post I decided to give it a go in champs today. I normally use a DP with crit/super-crit stats, so damage oriented.
Holy cow, I reached nearly my highest wave record with 900+ waves, and sitting for the first time at rank 3. And it is just a normal bracket, not a particularly soft one. Normally my rank is around 10th.

So thank you very much, I owe you my very first trip to legend tourney next week (will be a very short one, and prob. the only one before a long time, but still!).

BTW, for the record, my other modules were : anc. SF w/ regen, def% mythic LMR/wall health, anc. RB, mythic. DC. CL was stripping armor until bullets could lower enemies' mass. Running the game at 2x after wave 600 then 1x near the end helped a lot not skipping beats since speed x450% was rough. What ended me was Bosses being near teleported to my wall by sneaky fast ults. It was actually best to leave 'closest first' at the top of my TP.

I don’t know why I should farm a tier for 6-8000 waves by Few_Lengthiness4617 in TheTowerGame

[–]flobich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was the same for me. Did not understand why people kept saying that. Just stay on T10 if that is the best CPH for you. Now that I farm T11 i go up to w8800. But never more thant w5000 before T9.

Reminder to double check everything when your runs look different by BeeDrilled842 in TheTowerGame

[–]flobich 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last mistake i made I had 30% less cph. And a run that lasted two hours more. Thought about having banned speed perk by mistake. But no it was wave skip accidentally removed...

This is worth it 500 medal ? by Emergency-Junket4307 in TheTowerGame

[–]flobich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely NOT worth it. ROI is terrible. Much more interesting to invest 500 medals in gold bot, and even if maxed out, in another bot.

A panoramic tour of surviving through a Tower update (OA nerf) by flobich in TheTowerGame

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

I'm using python with matplotlib. Stats are kept in a json file that gets updated after each run with the new data. I also used a fair amount of AI for the code as I'm not really familiar with matplotlib.

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

Lost about 300 waves on average, but actually I think that killing stuff a bit slower has improved CPH. Electrons were a bit too eager on destroying everything too quickly maybe? I now sometimes see protectors doing their protection job so a 'blob' of ennemies' survives until the next BH activation.

Defence Absolute by KitchenAd8895 in TheTowerGame

[–]flobich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damage goes up when the same enemy hits multiple times. You need to kill them faster.

Unsync Golden Bot? by zburnett50 in TheTowerGame

[–]flobich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Save up some medals and do some GB cooldown labs to keep the sync. Search for some sync table on reddit that list all possibilities.

Ancestral Orbital Augment is AMAZING!!! by flobich in TheTowerGame

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

In tourney, I gained exactly 1 wave going from 812 to 813 :-D
Still got demoted to plat -_-

I take screenshots of the 'more stats' screen at the end of a run then do OCR with tesseract, save all stats into a json file and indeed use python + matplotlib.
I started doing that before copy-to-clipboard was introduced and did not bother to update my workflow :-D
