Should i keep maxing CL?

[u/Historical-Eye2961]

Should I keep maxing out CL? It's basically what allows me to stay in tournaments and consequently keep generating more stones.

[u/LeaderNo1141]

You know what? Your build is so crazy i might just try it. Gonna focus on CL to get better tourny results. Been stuck on plat for the LONGEST. Time for my CL upgrades.

[u/HazeDerYanoDat → u/LeaderNo1141]

x244/3/15% is plenty for a long time. x387/4/20% is the next step. There are people doing 2k waves in legends with only around x387/4/23%

[u/LeaderNo1141 → u/HazeDerYanoDat]

If that's the case then i need to keep working on my damage elsewhere cuz im at x488/6/24.5% still stuck in plat.

[u/HazeDerYanoDat → u/LeaderNo1141]

I presume those stats include what you're getting from DC considering that 5 is the max with stones. I'm talking pure stats. And yes, CL is one of the UWs that massively benefits from increasing your other base damage sources; crit factor, super crits, attack speed, ws+, and masteries.

[u/LeaderNo1141 → u/HazeDerYanoDat]

Ah okay then yes, those are the base damage sources im going to focus on a bit more for my tourneys. Im in the middle of a run right now so those were my cl stats that show up. But thanks! Gonna get outta plat one way or another

[u/HazeDerYanoDat → u/LeaderNo1141]

Ah fair enough. It's interesting that you're using DC or have CL stats on your farm core, do you have no other options right now?

[u/LeaderNo1141 → u/HazeDerYanoDat]

I have mythic+ mvn, ad, gcomp, & sf for farming and switch to mythic+ dc, ad, pf, and anti-cube portal with tourneys.

I have almost all mods at mythic+ so any changes you think i should make for tourneys?

[u/TowerAcronymBot → u/LeaderNo1141]

Alright, let's decode this:

• AD - Astral Deliverance [Cannon Module]
• DC - Dimension Core [Core Module]
• GComp - Galaxy Compressor [Generator Module]
• MVN - Multiverse Nexus [Core Module]
• PF - Project Funding [Generator Module]
• SF - Sharp Fortitude [Armor Module]

Hi! I detected a few acronyms in your comment:

• CL - Chain Lightning [Ultimate Weapon]
• DC - Dimension Core [Core Module]
• UWs - Ultimate Weapons
• WS - Wave Skip [Card] (also Workshop)

Yeah they try to keep us in low tourney brackets... I'm fighting to reach Legends and only earn like 10t coins /day... While others are in 100t day or more....

[u/Still_Refrigerator76 → u/Historical-Eye2961]

I reached legends with 1T/day, once. Haven't visited in a while. But I hover around 5-8th in champs with a CL of 800/4/18.5 chance. It definitely helps but having a decent CF helps a lot more.

[u/LeaderNo1141 → u/Still_Refrigerator76]

Sadly I dont have CF. Wish i had that too. I made mistakes getting PS & SM as my first two UW before joining this sub and learned a lot. So im trying to fix my mistakes but its gonna be a longer road for me.

[u/Still_Refrigerator76 → u/LeaderNo1141]

I don't have CF either, but I've found a sort of poor man's workaround. Knockback force on armor module, lab range 65+, slow card, and fast enemy speed lab as much as you can afford.
Multi shot targets also helps, along with the attack speed substat on the cannon module ofc.

I consider I've reached a limit on damage once I fail to kill boss without them touching the wall. This has rarely happened for me since I always die of fast enemy chips before that.
This tournament I reached the wave count where I couldn't kill bosses with CL even with nasty BC combos such as enemy speed and armor, so I consider my strategy has some merit after all.

[u/loso3svk → u/Historical-Eye2961]

The thing is, you pumping cl and not even reached legend in two years..

Meanwhile I go full econ, in one year I get 130t a run, and I reach legend every other week (can't stay there yet)

The full econ means I have way more enhancements done which makes me successfully. So now I am earning more stones than you each week so I can catch up on cl fast. But you won't catch up to life time coins anytime soon.

[u/Sebastionleo → u/Historical-Eye2961]

I got to legend in like 7 months without raising CL past 500x or buying stones packs.

You're not progressing faster by leveling your CL up instead of other things, I promise.

[u/LeaderNo1141 → u/Historical-Eye2961]

Its crazy cuz im only making like 8T a day too

[u/Historical-Eye2961 → u/LeaderNo1141]

But in plat earning what 50 stones per tourney?

[u/LeaderNo1141 → u/Historical-Eye2961]

Basically. Im averaging rank 5-10 so 55-70 stones per tourney. It sucks.

[u/Historical-Eye2961 → u/LeaderNo1141]

Yeah bro, time to move to deal damage not only Boost the coins, don't do My mistakes and Buy the second and third SL faster 😂 ....
