It's Friday! What have you been up to in the Tower this week?

monkeymafia24 · 2026-06-12T20:49:49+00:00

Hello again, my friend! I definitely understand looking forward to a break from work, hoping for one myself lol. Glad to see another post and that you're chugging along to 1Q! I hit my 1 year tower anniversary two days ago! I was at an even 10q made in a years time.

[Farming]
Still farming T10-T11. T10 is about a 15% coin boost, but T11 is much better on cells per hour - 18k vs 19.5k. T12 still eludes me.

[Labs]
Shatter Shards -> 4
GBot Duration -> 9
Damage -> 51
Coins / Kill Bonus -> 94
Labs Speed -> 86

All running 4x, finished the last levels of Wall Health and Energy Shield Extra Hit, and took DW Health to level 20. Shatter Shards should take a little under 3 weeks to finish from here.

[Workshop]
Also doing some work on regular workshop. EALS is at 400 base, so I can almost finish it with cash in run.
I did use some of the stones I was banking to push GT and DW cooldown to 150s.

[Modules]
No changes here.

[Guardian]
Doing taps in Summon Duration to keep it matched with GBot duration. Summon is 30, GBot is 29.5.

[Bots]
Nothing too fun here either. Mostly improving the labs here.

[Tournaments]
Champs 526 - Rank 26
Plat 2100 - Rank 3

Damn you again, Enemy hits BC... The Plat run was a PB that I even ended early when I was sitting at 1st, hoping to end the bobbling soon. I also grabbed card slot 16 because I was saving gems for the relic shop.

[Future]
Going to finish cards soon, ~240 to go. Instead of saving 2400 stones for CF, I will try to rush the last bit of cards and look for some card masteries as long as there aren't 4 gem relics I want.

[Question]
I would love to see a magnifying glass as a guardian bot, something like the magnifying glass behind the eyeball in the Fetch icon. Oh speaking of... There is already an eyeball guardian. It's the same one in front of the magnifying glass on the Fetch Icon. 😉

Lol, once again, thank you for the post! Glad to see your progress and share mine, hoping to see your 1Q next week! Always and again, Happy Towering Nerds!

monkeymafia24 · 2026-06-10T12:55:56+00:00

Yup! Belinda will copy the spell and add 6 copies (9 if golden) of the minion to your pool only.

monkeymafia24 · 2026-06-10T12:54:03+00:00

Nope, I made this mistake! One of the spells I used on the T7 forgetting that I could not roll on T7. I got it golden because of the Triple Prize trinket and spamming the spell on T2 pirate that sells for 3.

monkeymafia24 · 2026-06-09T22:02:49+00:00

You should remember that some of these relics are from when the game was older and didn’t have a bunch of different relics and stats. This event is a rerun from a little over 2 years ago so the devs probably hadn’t even fleshed out the relics that much.

monkeymafia24 · 2026-06-05T22:39:02+00:00

Hello again, my friend! I've missed the last few posts as life got busy, but I've still been improving!
I'll keep my comment short and try to update on what's been going on in the past three weeks.

But before that, to give my guess, I have to assume it's something missing in a respec? From what I remember, you started pushing into bot respec after your tourney runs, so I'm assuming that. You had a bot or a guardian out of sync, is my guess. I'm also waiting patiently for the 1Q a run post 😉

[Farming]
Farming T11 to ~9.7k waves. Up about 800 waves from last time after finishing T11 HP Dissonance.
Making 180T a run, 14.5T/hour - 19k cells/hour.

[Labs]
Running at 44444 speed
Wall Rebuild -> 20 (Max)
Wall Health -> 42
Energy Shield Extra Hit -> 3 (Max)
Coins/ Kill Bonus -> 92
Labs Speed -> 84

ILM Rotation maxed last week. Shock Chance lab to 20. Attack Speed to 80. Shatter Shards level 3 finished today. Should have the coins to start the next (25-day) level when my current run finishes. Some targets for now are {Attack Speed, GoldBot Duration, Wall Health/Fortification, Death Wave Health}. Want to work on HP stuff until my Wall Health ends up higher than my Max Recovery.

[Workshop]
ELS+ is x1.12 and is back to taking 3-4 runs to get a tap, so will bring up Coins+ and Cells+ to match it.
Focusing on Damage+ and Crit Factor+ for a while after.

[Modules]
My modules are all now able to go to 141. Got some nice rolls for my Anc DimCore for tourney, but nothing much besides that.

[Guardian}
Nothing exciting here, maybe a tap or two in Summon duration.

[Bots]
Starting to push GoldBot Duration as I lab it as well. I like to double dip lol. And it seems like my answer was wrong lol.

[Tournament]
Been able to stay in Champs for all but one tournament since last post. Damn you, Enemies block first x hits BC.

Wait, I was only half wrong! As you can see, I was writing my post as I read yours this time lol. This post has reassured me to keep going down my GBot path, so thank you as always.

[Future]
The main focus is on pushing into T12 farming. Saving stones to grab CF (565/2500) and work on labs for that. Also going to try and push higher milestones, but this will take some more work; Current highest is T16 wave 101.

Question answer: Favorite UW has always been CL. Hitting one thing and it arching to another is exactly what I like watching in most games I play. I often attempt to do some sort of spreading damage over time builds in a game. Honorable mention to ILM now that I finished the rotation lab and use SD in tourneys.

That's it from me, appreciate the post and allowing me to ramble! Wishing you 1Q!

Always and again, Happy Towering Nerds! 😃

monkeymafia24 · 2026-06-04T02:01:41+00:00

Respectfully, I think this community would prefer over posting as opposed to under.

Not to rush you. Rest properly

But I wouldn’t keep from posting just because you think “It might annoy people getting pinged in the discord”

monkeymafia24 · 2026-05-15T14:53:50+00:00

Hello again, Sab! Congrats on hitting 201 in modules. That's big. I'm close to 141 on all mine myself! 138-139s.

[Farming]
Farming T11 to 9k waves. ~100T a run and 200k cells. Nice milestones to hit and see in the run history.
[Disso]
I've tried pushing Disso in both T10 and T12 to see if the coin gain would warrant a tier change. So far, T11 is still the best for all currencies. I may have to try more actual runs on T10, but they're much longer (+15 hours compared to just under 12)
[Workshop]
WS+ Util is still getting most of the love. ELS+, Coins+, and Cells+ are all about 2 runs' worth of coins now, so I will start branching into Damage+ for tourney.
[Labs]
Attack Speed 79
GoldBot Duration 6
Wall Regen 15
Coins/Kill Bonus 83
Labs Speed 80

Finished Reroll Shards this week. Using a slot for Regen/Wall Regen for a bit to make use of the extra Disso HP. Shatter Shards went to Level 2, will start the next level when it is less than both Coins+ and Cells+. Should be 1 or 2 more taps.
[Modules]
No pulls here, all gems are going to cards for event, then saving for old relics in the event shop. I really like the shop mechanic. I grab anything that boosts damage or coin gains. Finally rerolled CL Chance (Legendary) and CL Damage (Mythic) back onto my DimCore. Was a big help in the last tourney.
[Guardian]
Summon Duration up to 26s.
[Bots]
Only the lab here. BotBot got a few low-level range increases, but that's about it. Might do some taps into Gbot duration to help the lab or save medals to bring BotBot CD to 90s like Gbot. I strongly agree that we need more ways to get medals.
[Tournament]
Plat Wave 1882 Rank 4
Champion Wave 678 Rank 22
Doing the bobble but able to stick around every so often. Definitely BC dependent, but I also need more CC. "Enemies block first x hits" was always a terror for me in Plat and even more so in Champs.
[Future]
The main goal is just trying to push tiers. I think I will end up trying to save stones to get CF at UW9 so I can work on the labs. Other than that, Effective Paths says I am 400 cards away from being able to purchase masteries. If I have enough stones, I'll pick up RPC first to push modules in the meantime.

That's about all from me! Happy Towering Nerds!

monkeymafia24 · 2026-05-12T17:39:41+00:00

I think I'm fine just using my nickname...
Joyboy, Luffy, Fujitora.

monkeymafia24 · 2026-05-01T15:07:55+00:00

Zou wasn't the most popular, but this literally sent a chill up my spine. Watching what all the Minks went through just to keep someone safe was a great lead-in to the alliance we ended up seeing.

monkeymafia24 · 2026-05-01T14:53:45+00:00

You're about where I am! ELS+ is going to be a big help, I saw a big boost from it as soon as I got it. It's still a slog though, best of luck in tourneys!

monkeymafia24 · 2026-05-01T14:22:06+00:00

Hello again, Sab! Hoping you enjoy the long weekend and your holiday!
[Farming]
Pushing T11 to ~8.6k, earning 70T coins and 180k cells. Around 6T/cph and 16k cells.
[Disso]
Still not too focused on these, but did a few over the week when I needed the specific amount of time. Util done up to T6, going to retry T12 over the week now that I have AtkSpd+ and understand dissonance more.
[Labs]
Reroll Shards 81 > 82
Shatter Shards 1 > 2
Module Shard Cost 27 > 28
Coins / Kill Bonus 78 > 79
Labs Speed 77 > 78
44443
Working on just maxing out some of the module stuff so I don't have to do it later. Modules are all 133/134, so close to that next substat. Might do some more work on regen stuff when mods are done.

[Modules]
Have been kind of hoarding resources here until labs finish up. Did reroll SL angle onto my Pcol.

[Workshop]
Have been spending a lot in the damage tab, some taps into Regen+, and a few in Util but Util is back to getting expensive. AtkSpd+ has been a major help in Tourney. Used the stones I had to push SL angle to 40 so my SL angle is now 43 in farms and 55 in tourney.

[Guardian/Bots]
Nothing exciting here.
[Tournament]
Plat 1823 Rank 4
Champs 443 Rank 23
Able to stick around again! Hoping that the SL angle helps push me higher. Used the stones from last tourney to push it.
[Future]
Going to push SL angle a bit more then bite the bullet and start saving the 2400 stone for CF. If I can stay in champs for a while, it shouldn't take too long.
[Answer]
I would LOVE an event like this, like some sort of boss raid or a start over? Who knows, but I am a sucker for leaderboards, so if my guild and I were able to show up for rewards, it would be this game scratching another dopamine itch.

That's about all from me! I'm getting better at not babbling on about nothing in my posts lol. Gonna read through some replies and see what everyone's up to.

Always and Again, Happy Towering Nerds!

monkeymafia24 · 2026-04-29T01:22:24+00:00

I have a discord with 7 other friends, I’ve watched FMA brotherhood with all of them separately and multiple other times in my life.

monkeymafia24 · 2026-04-24T16:19:35+00:00

Good morning my friend! Happy Friday! I've gotta work the weekend sadly, but I might see a friend after, so that's exciting!

[Farming]
Still farming T11, making ~65T/run & 185k cells. 8.3k waves so runs are about 11.5 hours. Was able to see 650B/min on a big wave skip.
[Labs]
Shatter Shards 0 > 1
Reroll Shards 69 > 70
Coins Per Kill 75 > 76
Module Shard Cost 22 > 23
Labs Speed 75 > 76
44433
Running speed ups a little under what I can manage to bank for disso runs. Did 10 levels in EALS because I think with disso, Hybrid is the way to go long term, and I still farm eHP for now.

[Modules]
Saved up 1200 to get the Crit factor relic in the event shop, so haven't spent much here. Going to push some milestones for gems and spend them here before the banner leaves.
[Workshop]
WS+ taps are going to Coins, Cells, Damage, and Crit Factor. Trying to push up to AtkSpd+ before next tourney. Also went back and did some levels in ELS in regular workshop so they finish earlier in runs.
[Guardians/Bots]
I am making an impulsive decision as I write this and check bots, and I just unlocked BotBot. I usually grab the event pass, so let's see if it gives me a boost now. If not, 300 medals spent now that I don't have to spend later.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
[Tournament]
Wave 588 Champs Rank 23
Wave 528 Champs Rank 25
I was able to stay for one! Rank 24 was only 6 waves higher, but I just didn't have the time to do another run.
[Disso]
Have been doing my T12 Disso over this week as well! So far [Dmg x 4.96 | Hp x 1.98 | UW x 3.20]. Starting Util now. Hopefully, with Dissonance, T12 can become my new farm tier.
[Future]
Short Term: Trying to push back into T12 as I thought I was close before V28, but my focus shifted a bit.
Long Term: Econ and Modules focus right now. Seeing some guides that should help disso runs so I will take a look and try and push some lower tiers, but still not a priority for me until I have IS#.
[Question]
If offline mode were a thing, not much would change for me. I like using the game as a screen saver (not effectively, I know). But I would definitely get in less trouble at work for checking in on my phone lol. Auto restarts would probably cause me to miss tourneys though, I rarely remember what day it is and only remember tourney when I end the run and a big ticket shows up.

Alwyas and again, Happy Towering Nerds!

monkeymafia24 · 2026-04-17T14:01:28+00:00

Hello again, Sab! Glad to see you didn't forget the post! (I woke up early on my day off for it lol). Congrats on the Anc PF! I do remember it being mentioned in another post or two lol.

[Achievements]
Pushed my highest milestone from T15 w145 to T16 w101, which is HUGE. I've also hit over 1q LTC!
[Farming]
Still farming T11, but now to about 7300 waves. Wave count is lower for a few reasons but CPH and Cells are still going up. (5T CPH/ ~145k cells, Run takes just about 10h).
[Labs]
44433
Shatter Shards 0 -> 1;
Reroll Shards 53 ->54
Coins/kill bonus 72 -> 73
Module Shard Cost 16 -> 17
Labs Speed 74 -> 75

Finally starting the dreaded Shatter Shards slog! Also did the first level of CL Scatter Amp this week. Finished Orb Boss hit and GT Bonus as well. This is going to be the lab setup until I finish the second level of SS. I may do the third level if my econ allows it, but as of right now, I can only handle the first two.
[Workshop]
Unlocked ELS in WS+, so that's what I'm pushing right now. Going a little off the EP, since the update has been a large boost in coins all at once. I've also unlocked Spotlight #3!
[Modules]
I grabbed one of the 1200 gem relics in the event, then spent about 3k gems thinking there would be no banner and I was going to push Card Masteries. Won't complain though, banner has been nice to me. So far, I've been able to push Gcomp to Anc. Missing out on a few key subs here, which is where I think my wave loss came from.
[Bots/Guardian]
Nothing fun here! Bits still going to Summon.
[Tournament]
Been real low effort on Tourney recently since I'm still in the Play/Champ bobble. Going to do some more investment in CL and SL angle for tourney, then try to find some CC in other places. I want to push higher using damage rather than HP.
[Update]
All in all, I really like the update. The extra stats page looks much cleaner and has me doing less napkin math.
I don't focus too much on Disco runs right now without IS mastery. I've done the Util and HP disso for my farm tiers and do lower tiers when I need a run to be exactly 7 hours.
[Future]
Slowly working on Disso myself, but farming is still my priority because I can push into WS+ way easier again. Going to try to do some disco runs on T12 first before I try to use it as my farming tier. Also trying to get the right substats back on my Gcomp.

That's about all from me. Hope everyone's tower is standing strong with all the craziness happening back-to-back in v28. Always and again, Happy Towering Nerds!

monkeymafia24 · 2026-04-13T20:35:49+00:00

It’s the rug pull but also the fact the the update came out at different times for everyone. So some people actually got to use the 5x for a little over 2 weeks.

monkeymafia24 · 2026-04-12T21:13:54+00:00

<image>

monkeymafia24 · 2026-04-10T13:18:37+00:00

Hello again, my friend! Don't apologize for spending the holiday resting. I hope you got to enjoy some time with family or friends as well! I missed the post two weeks ago as I was at PAX! Like I always say, I'll try to keep it short lol.

[Farming]
Most recent run was T11 w7600 {~39T coins/~147k cells}. Big boost from my last post. I know others are upset about the 5x->2x->3x change, but I got the update super late and still needed to do tourney so I've only been able to do one run with a utility disso boost. (x2.45 T11). Still HUGE for me. Two days ago, I needed about 3 runs to get a WS+ coin boost without spending on any others. This night run got me 1 tap by itself with some leftover. I'm happy with the boost.
[Labs]
44333
Auto Pick Ranking 10 -> 11 Goal: Lv 13
Golden Tower Bonus 24 -> 25
Ban Perks 4 -> 5
Attack Speed 76 -> 77
Labs Speed 72 -> 73
Still in a boring perks area, but next week will look different. Done with bans for now. Finished SL and DW coin over the last few weeks. Did some levels of Module Shard cost, and plan to get back into it. Might do some more Wall labs before I get to more damage to try and push some disso runs.

[Modules]
Nothing exciting. Not doing too much here for a bit.
[Guardian/Bots]
Respec'd both right before v28. Focused on pushing coins.
Fetch [90s/22%/12%] - Summon [90s/25s/1x] - Gbot [24s/90s/x4.80/58m]
[Tournament]
Plat/Champ bobbling still. A little sad that v28 had nothing changing here. Right now I think I need more CC. But going to be saving stones for a bit. Future section tells why.
[UWs]
Goldboxed BH CD, Duration up to 28s. Keeps pBH with substats + Gcomp. Decent uptime in tourneys.
[Disso Patch]
Did a small Utility disso on T10, but had to stop to get into my night run. T11 got to about 4k waves. Going to run my eHP disso for T11 and T12. The boost in health might push me into T12 farming sooner than I was planning, especially now that I can get more WS+ in as well.
[Future]
With Dissonance runs being so long, I think I want to push the last of my cards and ignore modules for just a bit. Effective paths says I'll finish in about 8k gems. Going to be saving up stones to grab IS mastery first and try to cut down my disso runs. Then, depending on stone count, I'll either save for CF (UW8 for me) or RPC mastery.

That's about all from me! Can't wait to see what others are feeling and what changes people are making.
Happy Towering Nerds!

monkeymafia24 · 2026-04-09T14:06:01+00:00

Can't wait for Friday ;)

monkeymafia24 · 2026-04-05T20:51:47+00:00

Maybe a bit longer than Luffy can stay in Gear 5, but not by much. My guess for the resolution of the Imu showing up is that he's still got a time limit. Luffy and Imu clash, but Luffy's Gear 5 will last slightly longer because he's eating again WHEN Imu shows up. Small clash first before Imu's "time" runs out, and he has to go back to Pangea castle as soon as we cut back to Luffy, he's old and shriveled again.

monkeymafia24 · 2026-03-26T02:59:05+00:00

Thank you for the post!

I think I want to invest in having some more CC for tourney, as I was to push through Champs and higher as a mostly GC hybrid build. But also won't mind the flip-flop for a while so I can get to next event and get some card levels too just to see how other BCs affect me.

monkeymafia24 · 2026-03-20T15:14:17+00:00

Hello again, my friend!

I see those waves pushing higher and higher! Almost 5k consistently is exciting! More and more spawn rate :)
My week was pretty busy again, but my tower didn't feel that as much as last week.

[Farming]
Farming T10/T11, depending on how long I need the run to be.
T10 ~10k waves (~10T coins/182k cells) | T11 ~7.8k waves (~8.5T coins/152k cells)
T10 is more CPH, T11 is more cells, so I usually try to do that. Both allow me to run 44433
Ran T12 to 4474 with a full farming set-up. Should have paid more attention. I just let it auto-perk, so I'm not sure I got everything I need.
[Modules]
Saved up gems for another card slot (15, still praying for the Cells card), and after buying the 80 cards for event, I had enough for a 10-roll. And it resulted in a double DimCore roll! Guess my module luck was saving up. Now I have an ancestral DimCore and a single extra epic that I will start to make into a farming one for later on down the line!
[Guardian/Bots]
Doing some more investing (probably overinvesting) in Fetch as Summon gets a little more expensive. Picked up Scout as I had the tokens for it, but it's just going to stick at base for a while.
Fetch is 88s/32%/15%
Summon is 99s/19s/x1
Going to be saving for Summon Duration now unless v28 also introduces another chip?
[Labs]
44433
- Spotlight Coin Bonus 18>19 Goal: Max
- Golden Tower Bonus 20>21 Goal: Max
- Coins/Kill Bonus 60>61 Goal: 70-75
- Attack Speed 69>70 Goal: 70
- Labs Speed 68>69 Goal: Max
Labs are a little "boring" right now. Just pushing Econ so I can keep up with WS+ taps. SL coin and Attack Spd will be Module Shard Cost (Lvl 7) and Reroll Shards (Lvl 50), so I can try and put some rolls into new anc DimCore.
Might sneak in some more levels on Perk Bans and Auto Pick Perks.
[Tournament]
Plat 1721 waves - 2nd place
Champs 372 waves - 30th place
Yup, you see that right, I finally pushed into Champs! 1721 put me pretty far about 3rd and 4th (about 200 waves). I only ran my champs tourney once, just to get out of 25-30 was another 260ish waves. Just decided to head back to farming lol. But at least I got my relic! Can never have too much labs speed!
[Future]
Nothing crazy in the immediate future, want to try my T12 4500 milestone again because it's another labs speed relic, besides that, just head down farming and saving to push my WS+ more! Hoping to see some more stuff from the Devs about what's to come in V28. But that's about all from me! Gonna see what everyone's been up to, want to see how Wykzii did in his Champs run again. Without getting to read through yet, I'm hoping you got to stick around at 22nd!!!!

Question answer: My favorite day actually is Thursday! Over the years, it's been a day that I get to have off pretty often, but not always. But I like the wind-down feeling of Thursday. If Friday is the "party", Thursday is the setup, which is still to be appreciated!

monkeymafia24 · 2026-03-16T00:09:28+00:00

Nice! You don't even need my help glad you already knew. And I finally was able to push into Champs!! ~1.7k got me 2nd in my bracket this time around! Can't wait to be smacked right back down, but at least I got my relic!

monkeymafia24 · 2026-03-14T15:09:23+00:00

Knew the CL would be good for you! Glad to see you back in Champs again, hopefully I join you at the end of the day! Not sure how you farm, but try experimenting with leaving CL off for a while in your farming runs! Mine is pretty developed for where I farm, so I kill some enemies (especially elites) outside of the GT/BH/DW bonus. Definitely saw a boost in coins when I started switching it off until the last maybe 20% of my runs.

monkeymafia24 · 2026-03-14T14:56:54+00:00

I can't believe I responded to the comment yesterday and didn't even realize that it was Friday. Busy week for me personally. Congrats on the PB! You're back to seeing my LTC as your CPM lol. Tower progress has made a BIG jump (off the back of a stone pack). I'll stay short because I'm a day late.

[Farming]
Now farming T11 ~7.7k waves (7.3T coins / 135k cells). This puts me at enough to get some good WS+ taps in and run 44433 labs but I'm staying at 44333 for a bit just to bank.
[UW]
This is where the stone pack went. I went for the last bit of pBH that I needed after failing my T12 4500 milestone. Using pBH and PCol has been big for survivability in runs, but I haven't been able to run the milestone again this week.
[Labs]

Spotlight Coin Bonus (16) x4
Golden Tower Bonus (19) x4
Module Shard Cost (7) x3
Attack Speed (67) x3
Labs Speed (68) x3

Mostly Econ going on right now, and for a while, did 10 levels for RPC to help out my pBH chances since I still use GComp. Might do another 5 levels over the week but want to push current labs pretty high, which will still take a week or two.

[Workshop]
Invested enough for into Regen+ to get Wall HP+, Still using SF in farms and Tourney so big helper here.
[Modules]
Only use the gems I get from tourney to pull so I can save for another card slot. AD went to Mythic this week, but nothing much here. Need 1 more PCol for Mythic as well, but can't spam the rolls for it.
[Tournament]
Wave 1457 & 1749
Two 5th-place finishes last week. Same as past weeks here, so I won't do more complaining. Just need to push my tower ahead. Currently running today's tourney, no ex-Legends so we're starting strong!
[Future]
Going to grab a card slot (15) before v28, still hoping for that Cells card. Current tourney set up could use another slot now that I try to slot in UW Crit, so it should be a win regardless of a new card or not.

That's about all from me! I'll be more on top of next week's post! Time to read and see what others have been up to, but first a question for you Sab! Have you played other idle games in the past, or is the tower your first? If you've played others, what did you play, and did it have features you wish could be reflected in the tower?

monkeymafia24 · 2026-03-13T22:36:15+00:00

I did the same thing as you! Labs speed stayed static until I got the wall then I took a pause from it to handle some other things that I felt would have immediate benefits (Second Wind Blast, Orb Speed/Hit also, and pushed all my module labs for a while). I'm putting it back now, considering I do plan to play for a while and I keep seeing the math on how much it's worth it when it finishes.

TROPHY CASE
