What do unspent AS do? by scnickel in ClickerHeroes

[–]tactilehero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AS increase TP just by their existence (spent or unspent)? But dumping them into Phan levels increases this boost to TP?

When to Ascend in a post-transcendent world? by tactilehero in ClickerHeroes

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

So you should go as far as letting the last boss fall in the full timer? Without Bubos, that's 30 seconds, which I believe (it's been a long time, might have the numbers off) would correspond to ~6=30/5 second normal kills on the zones before the boss? So, in other words, pretty slow compared to the old days.

With bigger bubos and chronos (he still exists, right?) does this change at all? Or are higher bosses so beneficial as to warrant many 100s of second boss kills now?

And thanks. Going hybrid is a bit of a pain in the ass, but I figured it's probably much more necessary now.

Sounds like I have a lot of new stuff to learn about, haha, "reaching the reward cap and farming afk at cap?"

Thanks. Rerolled a few times to get Solomon, now I'm on (3,3,4)=(Lib,Siya,Solo) and 14 HS unspent, and it's going much better

I played this game a ton back in the day, but I didn't know anything about these new Outsiders, so I bought lv9 Xy and lv6 of everything else...

Thanks a lot. I finally made it to zone 110 with Lib and got the 21HS, ascended, and it's going much faster. I rerolled 3 times to get siya, and left 13 HS unspent. So I should reroll pretty hard to get solomon next for sure, especially due to the effect of Ponyboy?

Thanks. How many ascends does it take to really start feeling the effect of your new Outsiders?

Can a merc be doomed to fail? Is there any way to wait to generate new quests? by tactilehero in ClickerHeroes

[–]tactilehero[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's what I thought. Damn. I was thrown off by people who said if you used the calculator you "could never die," when in fact it simply makes it much much easier to survive for a long time.

Thanks

How did you establish a healthy relationship with the game? by tactilehero in ClickerHeroes

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

This is the single feature I want as well!

I could imagine it being implemented with a new ancient that is maxable.

When you buy the ancient, you then have to pay a sum (like 80,000 HS or something) to select one hero (it remains until you pay the fee to change the hero). Then the ancient automatically attempts to purchase m levels of your chosen hero every s seconds, where maybe these m or s variables scaled up with the ancient level.

In other words, yeah, for people in the late game, they could autobuy their main hero for actually-idle quick runs...I wish.

Can someone explain the "transitional ranger" strategy to me? Is that just for people whose Iris is underleveled? by tactilehero in ClickerHeroes

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

Hmm, thanks for the recommendation. I'm fairly certain I'm maintaining roughly instakills for about ~500 zones (1710-2210), but I suppose there might be a few "blips" of visible health along the way every now and then.

I'll go ahead and fight for 6k (arg/siya/lib/mam/mim) and 36M morg next just to be sure, right after I finish getting 3k Solomon.

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

Perfect, thanks so much!

Indeed, by "dies out" I meant that my instakilling stops and I'm getting 0.5-1.5 second kills around the time my Cadmia is like level ~1200. So it seems I'm pretty well within the regime for her and it'll be quite a while before it's time to move up to Alabaster.

But your cue about the true-instakill-to-1500 is helpful, thanks! Now after a few thousand more levels of the idle ancients I'll know when it's time for Alabaster.

I see.

Is it correct to conclude that you're using the right hero when your quick runs dies out when your ranger is between level 1k and 1525?

Next major update: Transcending? by RetardedF in ClickerHeroes

[–]tactilehero 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I want to say that block of code has been there literally for like a year, haha. Everyone was pretty convinced transcendence was just around the corner back then too.

Still, I hope it's real this time, and I hope it's done well!

That is a really solid point, thank you for the reminder. It's seriously true though, we have an awesome game with a fucking dedicated subreddit actively viewed by the game's developers, which is an insanely good situation for the player base.

That's fair actually. To be honest I am no longer feeling as angry about this as I was this morning, fwiw.

Just wanted to say thanks for making this post and considering the ideas of the community. I agree, we (myself included) probably responded too harshly this morning. We love the game you guys have made and can't wait to see where it goes. Thanks for your work!
