What.

[Don't you want a balloon?]

I've been stuck on 22A for 3 DAYS.

Either this game is just super long and padded out or I'm doing something hugely wrong.

I've got 2000x BC bonus, my modules are ready to tier up as soon as i get powered circuits...

I feel like all these numbers aren't helping at all.

hmm that does sound weird that your stuck there for that long there isn't really a wall to spend days overcoming there.
how's your base 1 doing? how much computer hav you farmed? crafting seems to be okeyish? farmed shards for more dps?. it's abit hard to say where your lacking with not much to go on.

But try to see in what areas you may gain more stats out off, Or try diffent setups on your ship for better results. i do hope you find out what huddle is keeping you there.

[Don't you want a balloon?]

Weapon, Shield, salvage, compute speed, and auto shieldboost modules are all maxed T2.

The 1.1 computers are at 345.2 effect, the 1.25s are at 658.6, the x2 ones are at 80.

Base can do 2.58e4 mats or 2.06e4 battle components. And I have x2085 from the BC bonus.

Synthing is fine i think, I'm 2 levels from unlocking powered circuits to build T3.

I'm currently using two kinetic cannons and a gatling laser, and a bulk/continuous combo on shields.

Feel sorry about this...
But it is true that you may be stuck for several days in a sector for some reasons in this game.
I stuck again in s50 for same reason.
Now I tiring to increase the dmg growing by adjusting core parts and focusing in synth and warp drive.

It is seen that the s22A are armored enemies.Laser weapon aren't effective against armored targets which only do 25% dmg on them unless the dmg are very high.It is recommended to used Kinetic weapon against them.
You may already unlocked Kinetic Cannon when beat the s21,it is advised to used it that against the armored enemies.

okey, how's your shard combo, (cannot remember if you get link at that lvl) but use battle in red and then damnage shard in pink.

Next didn't see any reactor, can you push that abit for more dps/shield?(push the cap higher for better power values)

Or mabey do back to area 21 and setup pure syth to push for that t3 stuff.

also you could do a few challanges they may give you the boost to stuff that well give you nice speed boost to your setups. and ofc achviements. They are kinda fun to dive for when your feeling stuck.

... and the winner is... research run! challenges! retrofit to a compute run for a few hours then back to damage! what have you not done in a while?

mix it up with the loadout. i don't recommend two kinetics any time. ever. it's just not useful. one kinetic, one beamer (in that order), one either charge laser or gatling.

also check sector data. there's a new battle shard at 22.

there are quite a lot of things you can try. most of this stuff has already been mentioned. weapon loadout is only one thing out of many.

feels you doing something wrong, coz on 24days i got up to stage 50
i personal didnt focus on compute at all, it was mainly synth, kept up with research,challenges etc. and only got somewhat slow,stuck at 36 bc guns and bit later
RN at 52 its full stop and cant seem to do anything to help but thats stage 52

i did never used compute for hours, but always all focus early prestigue, tops 1hour higher stages

i used 1 kinect as buff to get shield and armor damage to the rest

Ok, so, after letting it run all day while I was at work, I've manged to get to 23.5 and unlocked T3 weapon module.

As far as the reactor goes, I haven't used it much outside of boosting synth, salvage and research. I had been trying to save void for computing levels.

I'm on the same run I started before the replies, so unfortunately I'm using triple kinetics, but I will go with the loadout recommended next time.

Does it matter if I leave the game open all day? is there a benefit to offline gains?

[best bulliet target]

you should be running the reactor all the time, just make sure your using less then your farming and stick it into dps/shield that'll allow you to push a zone which well net you more void.

you can confriger the reactor so it's a multiplier you havnt really been using.

[Apetit]

you must be retrofit every run/prestigue
salvage + compute then retrofit to synth or research, ALL focus
(reactors,shards,modules, utility)
ex: salvage to buy core then focus compute(1hour is so much) after you retrofit for synth or research OFC farming salvage again for core upgrades

mainly focus synth ,thats how i got where im as fast, some stucks are: need new weapon-shield or just grind in somewhere else not days,
shouldnt be long that low stage. around 30s and 40s you need do catch ups to pass -i got stuck there

[Don't you want a balloon?]

I don't understand. I've got t2 weapons, t3 modules, good compute, good base, good everything.

And I still cant beat 23. I've followed all the advice I've seen here. Still stuck after almost a week. I give up.

The early progression is broken or something, this is not in the least bit fun.

post images, maybe that helps

[marleau.martin]

dont use t2 weapon so faat....i beat stage 25 and didint use t2 yet...cant get them strong enought to worth it

[rob_s_cat2]

don't use t2 for anything that's not your main gun (usually a beamer) until you van get it to lv 95 for the bonuses there. on weapons, they're insanely strong.
