Any advice of spending gold?

[Redbeard]

I have 108 gold to spend on Earth (Mars and the Moon have been completed).
Can spend 100 on either:

A) 80 gold = 3 flux capitalors (1 flux capitalor boosts profit speed x1.21)
and 20 gold = x3 profit multiplier
or
B) 100 gold = x27 profit multiplier.

Can anyone tell me why either would be better than the other?
Any suggestions?
Thank you.

I've yet to use the flux things. I tend to spend my gold on the live events so I know I can finish them in time. I did buy a suit once and I have some profit multipliers on earth though. I tend to go easy on the planets that aren't going away because in time you can complete them. Do you already have the suits? And you know you can keep running up the other planets for the mega bucks to get the boosts and mulipliers from those.

When it comes to doing the math I am not sure which is better overall but I would personally go with choice A since you get a x3 multiplier free once a week if you play daily.

I would love to hear others chime in on this question. I was thinking choice A myself (which is why I came to this thread). But as Gold is so rare, I'd hate to make the wrong choice.

@RedBeard: So have you made a choice yet? If so, any regrets???

Simple Version

Assuming you’ve made no gold purchases the first 5 most efficient gold purchases in order are:

1. x12 multiplier (50 gold, 2x to 14x = 7x increase, average of 7.14 gold per)

2. 1 flux capitalor deluxe (80 gold, 14x to 64.82x = 4.63x increase, average of 17.28 gold per)

3. x27 multiplier (100 gold, 64.82x to 189.83x = 2.93x increase, average of 34.15 gold per)

4. Another flux capitalor deluxe (yes a second one, 80 gold, 189.83x to 338.66x = 1.78x increase, average of 44.84 gold per)

5. White suit (140 gold, 338.66x to 677.32x = 2x increase, average of 70 gold per)

If his guide is pretty accurate a deluxe flux capacitor is number 2 on the things you should buy and since you don't get them for free and have to buy them buying one seems like a pretty good choice. The x3 multiplier you get free once a week but buying as many as you can afford is a good choice if you want to complete earth quickly.

It took me about 6 weeks to complete earth the first time and near the end I had a x54 multiplier and deluxe flux capacitor. I also spent 180 tickets to boost the ticket boost to 7777.77. Once I had the 5000 gold for completing earth I bought a x99 multiplier and a white suite and completed earth in a day.

My advice is use the currency exchange on all planets and get as many tickets as you can for earth as soon as you can. I had enough to end up with 180 tickets to boost it and I still have about 80 tickets and 4700 gold I think.

Is A or B better? I don't know and the difference between the two choices might be very small? My guess is you will probably want a deluxe flux capacitor on earth sooner or later.

Edit:

Also boosted everything on the moon once for a 17.77 ticket boost and bought a x12 multiplier for it before completing earth so if you use everything wisely, and I didn't at first, you can easily complete all planets in a reasonable time and still have plenty of change left over.

Can you pl help me out here Rock !

What do you think about : Gold Uppgrade / 20 Gold = x 3 Multipler apply a permanent boost to 1 planet

And 50 Gold = x 12 Multipler and also apply a permanent to the same planet.

Do this stack on each other like 3 x 12 = 36 x profit boost ?

If this stack on each other i may think to spend 70 gold . Is this a nice deal to a new beginner ?

I just start the game few days ago and i buy that DLC whit the blue suit = x 3 profit and 115 gold i think and now i got only 148 gold to spend.

I may think to spend 70 gold on earth and 70 gold on a event planet or what do you think Rock ?

[Nephilim]

The multipliers stack but according to the math some have done I don't think it is considered true stacking? I didn't study the numbers others have posted I just quickly looked them over to see which were the best gold investments.

Multipliers, flux capacitors seemed like the best bet and the white suit for end game. Suits depend a little on what multipliers you have already and how far into each planet you are. The usage of each suit also benefits some planets more than others. Overall the white suit seems to be the best.

I am also no expert I just quickly looked over the work others have done but I wouldn't go crazy spending gold on events unless you have the gold to do so. That one event that had no managers I spent 40 gold for a x12 multiplier just to get it over with as sooon as possible. Most can probably be completed without spending any gold but I usually buy a x3 to x12 multiplier to get them done sooner. Now that I have a better idea of what I am doing I might not spend any gold on events or just buy a x3 multiplier just to finish it quicker.

[Symatrix Hill]

Ok ty :-)

I may use my gold on only earth , i may think i gonne lose them afther each event or did you notice if you keep them there on the planet to nex event ?

I need to find out if this gold multiple 3x12 =36 or they adds to each other x3 + x12 = x15

[Nephilim]

For multipliers 3 + 12 would equal 15. Any gold you spend on planets is permanent. As far as I know gold spent on events is not. I have never done an event twice so I do not know for sure but that is what I have heard.

Thanks for all your comments, guys. I've been reading them (and still scratching my head).

I've decided to go with the A option, and buy the 3 flux capitalors.
Hopefully I won't regret that choice, but I guess it's better than making no choice at all.

@ Rock Ingersol:
Thanks for all your info!

@ SealieP:
Thanks for the reminder re. using the other planets to get mega bucks to get the boosts - I forgot about that (noticed the section, but forgot to check it out).

Redbeard.

I start the game 2 days ago and i buy that DLC whit the blue suit and that 1 give x3 profit boost.
Nice boost at the start of the game.

Then i buy this x3 Multipler for 20 gold / hmm this 1 stack and you can buy a new and a new ones so basicly you waste your gold on it so it is much better to but x12 Multiper for 50 gold who gonne give you a verry nice profit boost as a new begginer ( like me )
Whe you buy 1 of this multipler a new 1 popps upp / x27 100 gold and that is to much for me but as you se this never ending so way not take this 1 to 50 gold = x12 Multipler.

So i look on this Suit and if you have that DLC who gives you the blue suit x3 thats nice and you can make it whit that 1.

If you got that blue suit and you may not buy the white 1 yet, it may be much better to save for that green 1 early stages in the game because in 1 stages you need to sleep and if you let the game runn and you are far away from any new lv upp on any buissnes then it is time to use the green suit who gives you 10% angel boost to the nex time you logg on.
Remember the angel gonne boost your speed and mony depend on the way you play and whitout them your progres gonne slow down.

So back to the white suit, this 1 is nice and litle better that the green and i may think the white 1 works nice on a Event if you got gold for it.

So whay not buy that DLC and you get the ble suit and buy +12 multiple for 50 gold and save your gold to buy that green suit who gonne boost your angel x10% befor you buy the white ones and al this fluxcapitator.

Sorry my english here , i hopes you understand it.

By the way ty for your advice Rock :-)

[Symatrix Hill]

Readbeard did you find out what you wanne spend your gold on ?

[Redbeard]

@ Symatrix Hill:
Thanks for your note re. the suit.

It was hard to make a choice, but in the end I went with the 3 flux capitalors.
Hopefully it was the right thing to do.

[Symatrix Hill]

Ok and good luck whit that ,-)

I buy the green suit and this 1 helps when i am offline / gives + 10% angel on earth.

On Moon i may need the white ones to double upp the speed and i may think on a Event the white ones is very good.
