How long does it take to level a Constancy to 500 compared to the time it takes to level Empowering to 500?

Because Empowering is taking FOREVER

Topic: Anti-Idle: The Game / Autosteal Nerf

Wow, that was a big nerf. Changing the coefficient for pixels from 1/50 to 1/200.. :(

So it takes level 200 autosteal to double pixel gain from monsters (maybe up to triple, depending on your overkill “luck”).

And yeah, the overkill thing is a bit silly – it makes the scaling pretty rough and introduces some very strange ideas for optimization like trying to 2-hit monsters instead of 1-hit them if your 1-hit is less than 100% overkill. Very silly how a very small decrease in damage at some points can lead to double the pixel reward.

How are you guys getting such insane pixel/minute? I have autosteal on every piece of my Chaos set and I kill instantly, but I’m nowhere near that

Now its pretty well correlated with the zones that are the best for exp (NCI). Just go to the zone that gives you the best exp/min. :)

The main difference is that its not based on damage per hit. So the best strategy is to just kill the monster fast. (as opposed to the old “best” way to autosteal: spam quick attack on monsters that have a lot of health and die from it slowly)

That seems like evidence that stadium doesn’t give enough exp, haha. ;)

Nice job, btw.

I don’t see how that all adds up to a 6600% multiplier =X

Topic: Anti-Idle: The Game / MEGATHREAD: Battle Arena

What determines how much AI exp and BA-rank exp a monster gives? I am looking at Bestiary entries and the amounts don’t seem anything like what I actually receive for either. At least the proportions are correct.. but I don’t understand how to get from the exp listed in the Bestiary to actual-exp. Obviously there are some serious multipliers to get from 11,900 exp to 797,226 AI-exp (only 180% exp and +50% level 5 bestiary bonus)

Also, how does exp/epic factor into that equation? Does it get added to the base amount listed in the Bestiary before all multipliers? Or what?

Maybe there is a guide somewhere that I missed..

I’m not sure why the level 10 success enhancers even exist. Perhaps for lazy people.

You can only enhance 10 times. For the lowest quality speed + 3 enhancement (success rate = 10%), ten Level 5 or 6 success enhancers will only get you to a 9.3% and 13.7% success rate on a [+9] pick, respectively.

?

If you add crystals of rarity (better have recipe level 5 so you can add 9+4) then you can get Legendary quality +3 speed enhancers, which have a base success rate that is MUCH MUCH higher than 10%.. maybe even over 100%. If you are cheap, the Epic quality is also very good (like 75% success).

Thanks for the help :)

Hmm, indeed NCI is pretty good. I was using Fabled Forest (because after that the bosses start to get really hard for my gear level).

I got CGT down to about 20% health and then I died. Ugh! I’ll have to improve my chaos gear (currently unfused – I think I will fuse it with good Knightmare)

I can’t access Dark Ruler yet as I am only rank 395 :P

Topic: Anti-Idle: The Game / MEGATHREAD: Battle Arena

Is this a good way to level fast:

  • full attack-only Chaos + FG
  • epic rate % on everything
  • exp/epic on everything
  • go to a fairy land map in Worst Moon
  • equip a 30% or 40% spawn rate IA

or am I wasting my time making such a set?

(perhaps it is better to put spawn rate on everything and use the purple bonuses for attack power or eq-attack)

I’d wait for a G5 to drop, due to the enhanced range.

And no, the Gold Cannon is not for the range. It would only be ranged if gold cannon was the primary in the fusion. I was merely suggesting it for its potentially large attack and high rank (its nice to have the fused G5 over rank 200 in case you ever use an Empowering Gem)

I wouldn’t.. the bow is like 7 enhancers behind the G5 in terms of attack and not really winning out in any other stats. You’d actually have a weaker weapon afterwards. Maybe a Gold Cannon or Greatersword will make a good 2nd.

Mining is the best way to get CM. Also remember that +pixel% bonuses affect the amount of CM that you get.

Topic: Anti-Idle: The Game / MEGATHREAD: Battle Arena

I finished a set of Chaos +10 (attack enhanced, but not fused yet) and got my FG to +10 (speed, crit, and accuracy enhanced). So far it seems very very underwhelming… I don’t understand.

My Pyra/Pyra +10 (elite growth rocks +28 levels) combined with a set of Knightmare/Crimson gathered with Collector’s Pendant and enhanced to +10 (not fused or finalized, and enhancers were all random mystery enhancers..) did WAAAYY more damage, and it had a ton of defenses to boot.

I was under the impression that Chaos + FG would lower my defenses, but kill so fast that it didnt matter. But in fact it kills way slower – some areas I can’t even do at all with it. The Chaos/FG has less crit damage than the other set because no pieces are crit-enhanced, but the other set even performs better in WM where crit doesnt matter. >.>

What could I be doing wrong? This feels like a giant waste of several hours and 10B pixels in enhancers…

Cyril: You probably want to get Fiend Glaive + Chaos armor set, which means you need to be able to do the Secret Dungeon. That is a good goal to work towards. I personally was able to beat it by using collector’s pendant during mining with full set of crystal armor to get pieces of Knightmare or Crimson armor with higher-than-normal stats. Then I enhanced these pieces to +10. For a weapon, I used Pyrabow/Pyrabow (crafted) and enhanced to +10 with growth rocks (because they are cheap) and finalized after fully leveled.

Once you can clear SD with 10 chests, then getting full set of Chaos armor is easy. Then its just a matter of enhancing it properly (Chaos + FG sucks without enhancing)

Where does FGM and FGF armor drop?

Also, should I fuse Chaos with more Chaos (chaos/chaos)? or should I fuse it with something else such as Knightmare (or maybe FGM or FGF)?

I’ve never seen SC drop enhancers other than finalize and bonus, and I’ve killed 20k+ with master’s pick on hardcore with collector’s pendant (level 7800 SC) and over 800% drop rate.

Topic: Anti-Idle: The Game / MEGATHREAD: Battle Arena

How can I make FG/Chaos do the best damage? With full Chaos + FG (nothing enhanced), I only have 295 equipment attack, so my damage sucks.

I guess you have to enhance the Chaos set entirely with Lv9/10 attack mystery enhancers to make up for the huge loss to eq dmg? In that case, it may be good for WM mode..
But in normal mode, I don’t see how it can beat good Knightmare/Humblebee + G5.. plus the latter has way better defense.

Also, it looks like my Empowering Gem is worthless with Chaos+FG? Better to use the Strange Gem for +250 eqattack.. :(

What do you enhance FG with if not attack enhancers?

Growth enhancers? But I doubt the levels will add attack…

Do Chaos armor pieces (from SD) vary a lot in terms of stats? They seem kinda crappy compared to collector’s pendant Knightmare.

Also, what are the differences between the SD-dropped Chaos pieces and the Chaos-crate pieces?

Oh.. I was thinking they gave 1% of their bonuses every level (thus 500% spawn rate, 500% boss damage, etc). Haha, glad I didn’t buy them then. Thanks, Majildian.

What is the best thing I can spend my Pixels/CM/SCM on? I’m rank 270, level ~7000, using a +10 timed pyrabow/pyrabow with 1100 attack and a full set of crystal armor with random mystery enhancers on it. I’m having trouble doing things like Tower of DOOOOOOM and Secret Dungeon (even with anti-curse potion).. it seems mostly because of lack of damage output. I was going to make a G5/GS fusion and Humblebee armor.. but I keep hearing people talk about “those things arent the best anymore”. It takes so long for me to farm these materials, I don’t want to buy something that is useless for me in a few days.

Also, I am finally nearing the amount of SCM to buy one of the trinkets that costs 50,000 SCM. But I can’t decide between Empowering Gem and Worst Moon Gem.. what kind of stats do they get as they level up? It will take a lot to replace my Triangle Gem.

Also I was considering buying 2 pieces of Humblebee armor, but I keep hearing that CHAOS armor is way better. What kind of stats does Humblebee get as it levels?

Wait.. does double hit work with quick attack?

I am rank 228, level 6172 (never ascended).

I need help getting SCM faster. I currently mine on casual with a diamond pick (lvl 4000 SC) and kill crystals in about 3 seconds. While mining: 95% crit chance, 532% crit damage, 25 atk speed, 80% double hit, 138% boss damage, 272% pixel, 420% drop, 156% spawn. I only have 2 pieces of crystal armor so far (pants + shirt) but I guess this will get a bit better if I get more pieces.

I can get maybe 10k SCM per day this way.. but I would like to get them faster. I am saving up to buy Humblebee armor pieces (currenting using Pure Darkness) and 3 days per piece is agonizingly slow. I would probably just go for a set of Crystal armor but I cant change the bonuses and I like to have epicSpawn/autosteal/epicExp on my gear.

When I am not mining I can go to volcano peak on HC+WM where I have 5 IAs mastered (including the boss) which increases my epic chance. This gets me more pixels because of autosteal but way less CM/SCM.
My weapon is Pyrabow/Pyrabow [+10]: 1152 attack, 20 speed, 69% crit chance, 130% accuracy (finalized). I kinda want to make a better weapon but I cannot figure out what to make.. it all seems to be worse, and I don’t know which polearms have long enough reach or what to fuse them with.

1) How can I get SCM faster?
2) How can I rank up faster? (volcano peak HCWM seems slow now)
3) What weapon should I make?


Maybe I should go for ascension so I can get to the fairy land maps. I hear they have very high epic spawn and thus are very good for farming…
