New Rush Mode
Maybe its just me but, does the New Rush mode seem way harder than 5-Day Rush? I played a round today and barely broke 10K, but in 5-Day Rush I easily got over 25K my first try. It might be because I didn't even think to check my teleporters before the third task, but it still felt way harder and more rushed than the original even when I remembered the teleporters.

Its meant to provide a new challenge

I barely scratched half of it, 75k is just absurd.

I'm working on a guide right now. Definitely harder than the original 5-Day Plortmaster but still quite doable if you really buckle down.

Cool. I'll keep an eye out for it. I think I've got a few ideas after my first attempt too, just need to impliment them in a time-efficient way. Also, actually use the teleporters I'm given.

I actually forgot about my teleporters the first run until halfway through. The best advice I can give right now is to make sure you do every ranch exchange, pop as many golden gordos as possible, and get to the Glass Desert as soon as you can.

The cornerstone of my strategy was Honey Slimes. They are the highest selling plort that isn't dangerous to keep together and is easy to feed. Rad slimes could also work, but its easier to go through the Moss Blanket to the ruins and to get the Slime Key from the Honey Gordo.

The problem I had is that in my rush to get the three keys to unlcok Glass Desert, I had no idea how to effectively and quickly get a fourth to also unlock Quarry for the Rads, Crystals and most importantly the Odd Onions that will be requested at 3rd Day exchange, and there's also the fact that you need a fifth key to get to mosaics if I'm not mistaken. I'm not sure just how vital the 25 bonus is, but considering you're at the mercy of RNG for getting fire slimes as is I really don't know how else to go about accumulating enough keys to get access to all the slimes within reasonable time.

1st key: Pink Gordo on the Dry Reef bridge (To open the Moss Blanket)
2nd key: Pink Gordo on Ring Island (To open the Ruins)
3rd key: Phosphor Gordo underneath the Dry Reef (To open the Glass Desert)
4th key: Honey Gordo in the Moss Blanket ( Either to enter the Indigo Quarry or go further into the Glass Desert, your choice)

Getting into the Indigo Quarry early: At the very, VERY end of the broken pier leading to the Moss Blanket, if you sprint and jetback towards the cliffs you can actually drop down into the end section of the Indigo Quarry and then pop the Rock Gordos to unlock the two way teleporter leading to the cave ranch expansion.

do the trade request for more time and the trade requests give u things to give to the gold gordo wich will spawn gold slimes when u break it open just shoot in the herd and u can easily get from like 5 mins of play time i think i got like 9k vbucks
Spectrality Mar 18, 2018 @ 1:19pm 
You only need 2 keys to get to the glass desert and 3 keys to get to the far glass desert, and you don't need any extra for the quarry or moss blanket
(sorry xeno, I didn't know you were making a guide and I may have already made a guide
