Should I ascend?

[Mad Dog Of Steem(randomrequestsb]

I can get 207 Prestige levels and heavenly chips atm

[fraGer]

I ascended the first time at 9,274. Took 20 days to get there leaving idle 24/7. After about 10 days I did enable auto clicker because I was getting bored. Once I hit the Septillion mark it was painfully slow going so I just ascended. With 7,135 Heavenly Chips I was able to buy the first 25 prestige upgrades. It only took 2 hours after ascending to reach where I was before (Septillion) and I've since skyrocketed past that to the nonillions with 1.180,000 prestige levels and counting.

For me the game became much more enjoyable after ascending as I was able to unlock many new features like Dragons (Krumblor), Seasons (Christmas, Halloween) and other fun goodies. And I was finally able to afford 100+ Idleverses. No wrong way to play, just keep making those MF cookies!!

But what's 440 get you in particular? Never ascended before.

Its more that you can buy some upgrades but honestly I ascended at rank 100 something the first time and it was enough to boost me a lot. Its gonna take days to reach 440 so you might as well ascend around 100-200 something

Ascending first time on 1 it's op. Tested on myself

I did it around 250, no real regrets. I think I'm missing out on 10 starting clickers and 5% more cookie spawns, not worth the effort imo. (Definitely not days of it.)

Is there any point in ascending after you have all the upgrades?

More prestige/bigger CPS multiplier

English is actually the foreign language for a large percentage of humanity, mindblowing I know

And yet, not everyone speaks it, or is willing to spend time writing a whole guide in a language that is not theirs. You know what other language is spoken by a large percentage of humanity? Mandarin. And if you want to talk about numbers only, Spanish is actually the third most spoken language in the world, with 534 million people.

My point is, it's their right to write their guide in any language they want and there's nothing wrong in that. There is percentage of the player base that can only speak spanish, and they'll be more than happy to find that guide. I don't even know what is there to debate here.

That's...what I'm saying

You can "comfortably" ascend at 200 first, and then build up from there. It's maybe not the most efficient, but it depends if you're trying to beat the game as fast as you possibly can or are just enjoying the whole pace of it. What you need to keep in mind is, once you start earning prestige, it'll go faster and faster. So let's say it took you 24h to get your first prestige point : it won't take you 24h to get the second one. It's gonna be like... fast. I don't know how fast honestly I didn't pay attention, but like, the next 10 points are probably gonna be available in a matter of a few hours. And then it'll be as exponential as your growth. The thing is, once you unlock the Heavenly chips, your prestige becomes a percentage boost of your whole production. Which means if you ascend with 400 prestige, you'll ultimately gain a 400% boost in production, which will allow you to retrace your steps in hours instead of days. Then if you keep ascending with about 8-10 times more prestige than what you previously has, it'll only take you minutes to be back at the point where you ascended before.

All in all, let's say it's more important for the first ascension to be done "properly" (otherwise you restart without any decent bonus, which means it's gonna take you about the same amount of time to be back where you left). 200 is good enough to feel a massive increase in speed. 440 is optimum to buy some upgrades that make it even faster. After that, try to aim for a very minimum of twice the amount of prestige already in bank (you can check the "Stats" tab to see that), but up to about a billion prestige, you should be able to ascend 10x by 10x without too much difficulty. After that, it slows down, so it's up to you :).

TLDR of my previous post;
- Time you need to reach your first point of prestige : 24h
- If you ascend with 1 prestige, time you need to reach your second point of prestige : 24h again
Total time spent on 2 points prestige : 48h

OR
- Time you need to reach your first point of prestige : 24h
- Extra time you need to wait for your second point of prestige : +1h
- Extra time needed to reach 440 points of prestige : +15h (because your progress is exponential and you got the machine started)
- Total time spent on 440 points of prestige : 40h

I gave random values, just so you understand the maths behind it.

I first ascended at roughly 3500, and after that it was a smooth ride, managed to get all heavenly upgrades in 7 ascensions, and currently sitting at 10Tr prestiges. Here's a nice guide - https://pastebin.com/28vUYikJ
