What's your levels when finalizing your bases?

[RaptorSolutions]

I suppose the only actually important one is the component level since that what's actually contribute to finalizing.

Edit:
Base 1: 875, Booster 155
Base 2: 845, Booster 149
Base 3: 916. Booster 162
Base 4: 406. Booster 22
Base 5: 167, Booster 12

[TheLandscaper]

For me,

• Base 1's component level: 887
  
• Base 2's component level: 841
  
• Base 3's component level: 911
  
• Base 4's component level: 404
  
• Base 5's component level: 164

[RaptorSolutions]

My base 1 I finalized earlier is 875 for the record.
And thanks, B2 and 3 I've surpassed yours, but B4 and 5 is slightly below yours. I'll probably give it a shot and see how it goes.

base 2: components at 845, booster at 149
base 3: 917, 162
base 4: 408, 22
base 5: 166, 12
Still took about a day to finalize base 5 and I had nearly max warp upgrade for it.

Further updated.
Finalized at:
Base 2: 845, Booster 149
Base 3: 916. Booster 162

Is base siphon that powerful? I'm at Base 4, level 406 components, 22 booster. I run 4 red components with 4 drain reducers in the corners and the rest boosters.
Total engineering is 9k+
Crew skill is 6.83 after bonuses.
And according to the timer it takes 1 year and 9 days to finalize.

For base 4 it helped me to change from time to time between mats production and parts/components. You can focus them with 4 boosters.

But why? I already have 10+ years of resources banked up.

I feel like I'm missing something. Stuck on a wall around sector 114. Galaxies are maxed, reinforce bonuses are maxed, crew upgrades are maxed except supremacy. But I only have Base 1 finalized and is nowhere near maximizing any of the rest.

Did you check statistics if you are missing anything related to bases? I've done base 2-5 at sector 114 last day. Crew + siphon + module + shard + finished galaxies were enough for me to do that. I only had to mess sometimes with the base 4 to focus parts for a few minutes (to upgrade booster)

You gotta spend a few hours with veil piercer on and max base bonuses to buy component levels before trying to finalize them.

Wait, could you show screenshot? I think that layout isn't optimal. There should be only two red component at the top and bottom.
And yes, Base Siphon is essential.

Huh. You're right. I double checked with the wiki and I have no idea where the one I got came from.
Thanks a lot. Glad I asked/complained. It's now 16 hours. Could have been done by today lol.

Edit: Thinking about it further, I probably just took the one with one yellow one red bottom, mirrored it and turned them all red. Teaches me to do it myself lmao.

First of all, I did miss the tooltip that showed how long it would take until the base is finalized.

Went back and focused on base materials, parts and boosters for 5 hours. Usually I only focus on bases for ~10 minutes before switching the focus to something else. After building up boosters and parts for 5 hours and switching to components, I'm now about to finalize bases 2-4 in 40 minutes. Base 5 however would still take 10 hours.

I did all of that, and everything is maxed and nothing is missing. Also have all the engineering crew printed to maximize the Active Engineering Total bonus.

It looks like Crew Skill is the only thing I have left that can measurably affect base progress, and I have that at 7.8.

[best bulliet target]

well you got 2 things really, crew skill, and the syphon.

more syphon levels well add more secs per spawn and also faster spawns. So any idea if you can mabey tweek it's stats abit?

Nothing wrong with those numbers. One overnight for mats and then one more for components is what I was quoted for finalizing. So you're actually doing very well.
Also at the end siphon was giving me like 5 time speed or something. 16 hours for base 4 done in 1-2 hours.
