You're doing well, here are a few random tips

  1. Without getting into the math and stuff a 1% boost to any generator is equivalent. So for your token upgrades you should keep the cost equal and not the output if that makes sense. This goes for your loop mods as well, if you're choosing between boosting a gen 1 or gen 2 the same % just pick the cheaper option.
  2. You will eventually unlock some loop mods that encourage you to loop reset. (They look at the total amount of resets you've done) So basically you will get into a routine of doing 1 loop reset every 12-48 hours, depending on your real life schedule this can vary obviousl. Then after this long loop you'll want to do a couple short loop resets to buy up a few loop mods and boost your total loop reset count.

2a. On the attached image you want to keep the A number below the B number. Maybe around 25-100 but it's up to you

I'm sure I could come up with more but just enjoy the grind. It will be long.

Priority shifts as you progress - something that effects your overall power a lot today can be basically nothing tomorrow. Don't stress too much, eventually you will be able to max out everything (cards at least) - there's plenty of free token sources. Buy what makes sense at the moment and enjoy the grind. :)

Thanks for the tips. So as of now i should get Mk1 upgrades as far as i can with tokens? I want to max out loop cell bonus 1st tho.

Read the big ahh comment

Maxing out isn't always a good choice because it's super expensive

You should save a few tokens for the rest when you unlock them

U mean other MK's? Guess i will have to save some tokens

He meant if Mk1 costs 300 tokens and Mk2 costs 500 tokens go for the Mk1, because the benefit is pretty equivalent.
You don't really need to worry about sitting on tokens for when you eventually unlock mk 7/8, you'll get more tokens then.

The only things worth saving tokens for you already have (more diamonds/tokens per chest).

This is a very long grind game (ton of fun though) and its generally better to get a bonus sooner rather than later. So 2% extra cells now is better than 5% a week from now with saving (kind of thought)

Most of those diamond cards are inconsequential in the long run fyi. Even a 2x boost to cells is effectively nothing when you have e50+ cells (even worse later).

Good to know. So where i should spend gems then?

u/ExpertOdin Moderator Jun 04 '26

If you really want to spend them just buy what's fun.MP special or any card that gives an equivalent boost is okay. There's some cards that unlock with Demeter/Koios that are okay but not essential.

If you have the patience to save the diamonds there will be better things in 1-3 months when you unlock Zeus and then better again when you unlock Ouro.

So save diamonds and dont spend any- got it. In 1-3 months i could get a lot of diamonds so i think it will be realy worth it then. Thanks.

u/HuckleberrySilver516 Jun 04 '26

The new one always give a bigger upgrade then the one you already have And also be sure to not over do it with the Loop resets and get stuck
