how to get more souls after reaching the cap from the inner strength?

[tommy4K]

even the cyclops is giving so little souls, upgrades cost a 100x more.. which is a 100 days to have 1 upgrade

At this point main focus should be upgrading armory items that provide souls bonuses (even though they are not a dramatic bonus).

In recent update staves were added as armory items and they boost souls bonuses veeery nice. Another change was that bonuses from items are multiplicative, so theoretically should scale better in the late game.

what is a stave and how to get it?

There's new material called Astray Keys which you get on UAs, but before that you need to buy them on ascension tree. Then you go to Village and Mt. Otto where's a chest requiring 5 Astral Keys and 300 Divinity Points. After that you can create them by yourself, also 2 Astral Keys for each an some other materials.

By the way... I just noticed there was another update that NERFED this soul bonus for staves... bummer. It's still ok, but not crazy good as before,

yeah ive seen the astral keys.. but since in one UA I only counted like ~10 available, and i can only afford like 7 of them, i thought id rather use them on the anvil girl in the village.

I'd say staff is still a priority, and 7 keys are enough for that. From what I've read on the discord upgraded anvil gives possibility to upgrade key items - and these upgrades require keys as well, so... I'd say you won't get full benefit from the anvil after 1 UA, better go for the staff.

Where can I create the keys ? Is an extra ascension upgrade needed ? Can´t find one at this point (or I missed it at searching).

btw: I spent my keys on Mt.Otto and for the new anvil and have 1 left - now I don´t really want to UA for new keys...

You can only get keys on UA

Once you cap cyclops your go to is active play using the Wanders skill in funky space.
When you get a Soul bonus, immediate start spam using rage pills and keep rage active the entire time, also immediately use the necklace that increases giant spawn rate, and also the soul coin boost thing that gives 75% souls. Usually at this stage I can get anywhere from 2-400 trillion souls.
You do that until you can easily unlock charged yeti's, then you get the majority of your SP offline in frozen dimension. I went to sleep last-night and woke up to 3.5 Quadrillion SP.
