Is it worth it to Transcend?

[Cyllene]

I've been meaning to Trancend for a while now, but I've sunk waaay to many souls into upgrading ancients as well as having hero souls in general and my relics, so I decided to ask the community what they think.

As you've provided pretty much no info on your current progression it is hard to say. But in most cases the answer is yes.

My highest zone is 1304, 100K hero souls, not sure if I should add anything else to that. And I don't feel like giving up all of my progress for a few bonuses that, in my opinion seem mediocre

Have you read the Pinned threads? If not you should as they contain quite a bit of valuable information that will boost your progress.

And if you have yet to transcend for the first time, it sounds like it was time a while ago. Check how many AS you will gain.

It says I'd gain 27, and thanks for the info, I'll check the pinned threads

Wow, I've been give the advice to transcend every 6-7 AS. That must have taken a lot of time.

You absolutely want to transcend. Save 50 rubies for a quick ascension right after transcending or you'll be pretty upset with the sluggish levelling (that happened to me) and put 7 AS into Xyliquil and the rest into Ponyboy. You'll have time to customize your build after that, but that's the optimal distribution for your first couple of transcensions.
Buying a QA (quick ascension) right after transcending (which is abbreviated as FANT - first ascension after new transcension) opens up mercs tab and ancients tab. You will "only" gain 7 AS, but that's ok. Just go for Siya / Libertas and Xyl'iquil will do the rest.

I think you should tranced or however you spell it because for me when i first trancended (once again idk how to spell :3) i got around 10X heroes than normal i get around 500K each accend and i only have a level highest of around 1200

transcend every 9-11 AS

Hehe first time i did trancend i did get over 30+ ancient souls, but now i trancend about every 10

it could be a pre transcend save thats needs to do it for the first time scince it came out


i had 32 AS when i transcended for the first time

Transcend about every 12-13 cycle around 60-70 hours. Total as 256 Xyliqil 25, Chor 17, Phan 16, Borb 35 and Pony 31. Level 14449 and most likely break 15 000 on this round and upgrade Phan to 17

A good piece of advice is not minding how many AS you get when transcending, but how many AS per hour you obtain. 15 AS per transcension isn't that good if it takes 80 hours when you could be getting 12 AS in 50 hours. There's lots of info around the web on how to hit those numbers.
That's a pretty hardcore approach anyway (albeit that's the way I like to play) and this is just a game after all.
