> Wouldn't it be better to do: EL1=>EL3, DW2=>DG3, for researches: C250=>C1300, E400=>E3300, A305=>A175. I can see that more FCs => more assistants from D250 and more mana from DG7, but i don't believe it counteracts losing a lot of production as well as the assistants from E3300.
E400 is a mistake. It shouldn't be there at all (I'll change it to E3300 in the build.) *edit: It's there as the gem power upgrade from Toimil's Undead 25+ build I converted to this. I missed it when switching upgrades.*
The pure W275 build you suggest should be a stronger option followed by the Undead 25+ build with Fairy Chanting (adding Fight the Goblin Army if the event is still going at that point.)
I had hoped to do both Lineage 30 and the W275 buffing in one go. Not that I would benefit much from the high W275 once I reached level 30. W275 buffing from Horde with Fight the Goblin army and this build both require days invested. But this one gets higher in the duration of the event and works with Time Warps.
My thinking was that 1.6% assistants gained from 2 more Lineage levels would be enough to make this the better W275 buff build. And it would take a while for the "Fight" Lineage run to catch up with the hours spent gaining Faction Coins in the "Support" run.
Test with lots of Time Warps:
With 30 days of Time warps and Support level 75, I can get Undead level 30 in under 10 minutes. 4.4e39 Undead coins per second. W275 is 1.125B% from W520 of 7.95M assistants. DW2 is 220M%.
The regular Lineage build afterwards gets 2.8e39 Undead Coins per second at Fight level 0 (also how it would do outside of the event.) Double regen with Fight 100 makes it better at 5.6e39. And some manual clicks can make FC gain somewhat higher.
Here's the pure W275 buff build with all the changes you suggested.
#### WARNING: Do not Time Warp beyond 2 Billion assistants as assistants and W275 will overflow.
**Goblin Invasion Event - Long run W275 buff**
The higher the starting Undead Lineage, the more advantage this build will have at W275 buffing over the combined Lineage build. The combined Lineage build increases Undead Lineage and lets you increase Elf. A long Lineage run afterwards will benefit from the increased Elf Lineage if starting Undead and Elf Lineages are low.

I assume all the Evil time was from one S400 run each R but I'm not completely sure. I used C25 instead of C300 in R94 (for regen shortfalls in longer runs.)

Added a warning to the W275 buff builds.
This might happen in as few as 45-50 days worth of time warps. Overflow will occur sooner if you're using a similar build with Fairy Chanting instead of Dragon's Breath.

What gem amount were you at before buffing S400? I'm using Evil mercs and i'm only 640k after 4 days with 1e110 gems.

That's not enough. You need GB11 and at least 1e87, but ideally 1e88 gems

You can reenter merc research as low as e84-e85 without sunforce assistants. Then you can use your entry build to get e90, do a GB11 run, and finally start using the Merc Production builds.

Why would anyone go with Demon Bloodline at that point? the only reason one would play evil before that would be for S400 buff, or not?
I'm currently at R90 and production for the last bits are getting kinda slow, but i can't see the usefulness of this build with that bloodline choice
Not that i had the skill or patience to make my own :D

Demon Lineage production boost at L25 is 8016x = 801500% production boost.
The build uses Dragon Lineage not Demon, we get to choose a secon Bloodline with A2950 but we can only cvhoose 1 Linege, which is NOT Demon
So the Bloodline effect of Demon pretty much stays zero or near dependand if ou used Evil before(for S400 buff maybe?)

A2950 is Bloodline + base Lineage, perhaps try to read its description more carefully.

I started the run at 3.6e117 (3.6 Octg) in R94 after Neutral Mercs slowed down and I did one short FUDG run. I started at a higher gem total in earlier reincarnations.
If you ended up using the Dragon + Druid S400 build that could make it slower. With the Dragon + Elf build and less than tier 6 spells, mana regeneration could fall short of max mana. With enough missing tiers, the Dragon + Druid build could actually be better. A missing trophy like Prismatic Mana could also reduce the effectiveness of the run.

What build are you using? Rastan's build gets me pretty well up there, but when that slows down I switch to Reaper of Interests.

Rastans is only getting me to 1e111 with out really slowing down. And reaper doesn't kick in til 1e113 without a long build up right?
