MLC Strategy

[dorianmode]

I've got to the point where reaching MLC is pretty trivial, but I'm only able to get 40-50 a time, and I'm not sure how best to proceed.

Am I best grinding BLC, or doing something to get higher up the tower? If the latter, which way is best (grinding coins in the tower isn't making much of a dent after level 100)? Is there value in something weirder like leaf crafting or the slot machine?

Any suggestions welcome.

More tower levels are critical. Even getting past 110 boss will get you 1k MLC if you have some of the other boosters already.

I've found that grinding BLC crunches (a LOT of crunches) worked for me well. I can get to tower level 280 in a single shot and just put Leaf Damage (silver and gold) on auto buy - don't auto buy anything else.

I did grind BLC crunches for like 2 or so weeks and have 36k BLC crunches under my belt now. So it does take a bit of prep time. Getting to tower level 280 from a fresh BLC crunch goes pretty quick with no resets for me now however.

You're going over floor 100 and only getting 40-50 MLC coins when you MLC?

You should be getting over 1k just from reaching floor 110-120, even with relatively low BLC coin numbers.

Thanks for the advice - grinding the next boss up did the trick. It wasn't clear whether this would worth it, since I didn't know the impact it would have on MLC payout.

Let me introduce you to the numbers 101 through 109.

Either you're joking and it's not translating well through text, or you're trying to give me attitude over me trying to give you the benefit of the doubt.

If your whole issue is being caused by an inability to figure out that the tower floors are grouped by 10, or just taking a casual look at the MLC window and realising that things aren't going up each individual level despite the game telling you getting higher in the tower leads to more MLC rewards so maybe there's something you haven't done yet, that's an entirely different problem than being unable to earn MLC coins faster.

What, did you just decided not to at least TRY getting to level 110 before deciding you were unable to work it out? Here I am thinking something's gone wrong when in reality you're just incompetent or lazy?

Let me introduce you to my original question:

Am I best grinding BLC, or doing something to get higher up the tower? If the latter, which way is best (grinding coins in the tower isn't making much of a dent after level 100)?

I have some concerns about your response in relation to my question:

Knowing that floors are grouped by ten does not confirm that those groupings are the best strategy, or how best to tackle those groupings.

Noticing that individual levels don't affect MLC does not confirm that the groupings of ten are the best strategy, or how best to tackle them.

Knowing that getting higher in the tower leads to more MLC does not confirm that this is the best strategy, or how best to tackle getting higher in the tower.

Knowing that there are several things I haven't done yet does not confirm which of those things is the best strategy, or how best to tackle them.

Asking whether it is worthwhile to climb additional levels is something someone might to before climbing additional levels to establish whether it is best to try climbing additional levels.

The only thing that went wrong is that I asked for advice before taking action, and you have a problem with that for some reason. I could have asked for advice after taking action, but that would have rendered the whole 'advice' component irrelevant.

Here I am thinking that you might have some useful input before I grind (possibly pointlessly), when in reality you're just some twatsack with a chip on their shoulder?

[Daunmi]

You didn't ask for advice before taking action. Those are all excuses for not thinking or trying anything yourself at all.

'Let me introduce you to' is where you went wrong.

I don't have a single problem with people asking for advice (even for something so simplistic as to have taken, at most, maybe 5 minutes of playing to solve for yourself).

But when people step in to answer your waste-of-time questions, it's probably just polite to not respond derisively when people give you the answer to your problem.

So let me introduce you to my original reply that you were so quick to cut up as to make it useless.

If you can't take from that that floor 110 is what you need, when I specifically point it out as the low bar you need to clear, maybe my response should have been "Let me introduce you to the numbers 110 through 120.", instead of asking my own question about what your gameplay is like, and confirming the results you should be getting.

Or; don't be a twatsack and expect others to treat you nicely.

Don't ever change, Internet.

[frerouche]

What do you mean by "it might not be the best strategy"?
Beating bosses every 10 floor is the ONLY strategy.

I don't believe that you couldn't figure that out in three thousand hours.
