Monument Multi Challenge

[Jack Kenseng]

What do you mean by "the lowest monument that counts for the multiplier"? Completed one in 35 minutes and only my Mighty Statue has a 5% bonus.

Oh and, which monument would you consider the best for this challenge?

[Fel]

There are 8 monuments, each clear gives 5% to the "lowest monument that counts" up to 25%, so the first 5 clears would give 5% each to mighty statue, then the next 5 would go towards mystic garden and so on.

The other possibility would be that the first goes to mighty statue, the second to mystic garden, and it cycles back after the black hole.

I haven't cleared them yet but the first sounds like what the reward is saying at least.

[Jack Kenseng]

Oh I actually didn't even notice the "up to 25%" in the description. Alright...I'll do a few more and see which ones it gives the bonus to first.

Think spamming mighty statues is best? Mystic gardens or higher better maybe?

[Ryu82]

Yes that is right. After finishing 5 challenges, Mighty Statues won't count toward the challenge anymore and the Boost moves to Mystic Gardens.
If you finish all of them, each Monument will have 50% bonus at the end ( 5 x 5%, double if all finished).

[Fel]

It depends on your stats but usually it's better to do a lot of mighty statues since they are the fastest but without going all out on it since the early levels of temple of god are usually much faster than mighty statue in the 50k+.

EDIT: Oh, the "that counts" means that they are gradually removed from the count a bit like a reverse GSC?

[Jack Kenseng]

Oh interesting, I'll have to bust out the Black Holes to finish this challenge off eh? You should add that part to the description, I had no idea the early monuments would stop working from reading it.

If you are somewhat lategame you can do the first 35 of this challenge by making up to 500 Temple of Gods plus 40+ upgrades. The last five you will need to make Blackholes with upgrades.

[Fel]

Even the last 5 don't sound that bad, 4 black holes and 2 upgrades should give you 16E+9 multiplier.
Granted, it's only easy to reach after a certain amount of BS, CS, CC and clones but it's not much worse than BHC.

If you clear BHCs before doing those last 5, the divinity cost goes down by a fairly substancial amount as well.

[TanisX]

The point requirements ramps up every 5 completed so the very last one requires 6e10 points.

[Fel]

That would mean 5 black holes and 4 upgrades (or 4 and 5 for 70E+9), so it's not that much more.
Black holes have such a massive multiplier that it would require a much bigger increase to make it impact the result much.

Thanks for sharing details about this challenge by the way, the wiki still doesn't have anything about it so I was wondering if I should just leave it alone for now but it sounds doable (at my current stats at least).

[Ryu82]

@aidynmaster it says that in the description, just not from the beginning. After you did 5 challenges it says that you can't use Mighty Statues and so on.

[Jack Kenseng]

I see that now that I've done 5 of them.

Yeah, they can be pretty quick (depending on progress through the game of course) - I did all 40 the day before yesterday starting around 3pm and ending about 11pm or so - 6 minutes for the first 10 or 20 moving up to around 12 minutes or so each by 35, then the last 5 are kind of souped up BHCs and took me about 15-25 minutes each.

Anyone that can knock out UUCs/BHCs with any rapidity might well want to look at them soon - although it is a very active set of challenges to do, but conversely that also meant for me around 450gp/hour while running them due to the continuous quick rebirths.

[BlueBiscuit85]

I have been doing mine as a BHC. A 1/1 BH completes the first 36 I think. 35/35 div gen and a 5 GP purchase gets the challenge done in 7 minutes for me

[Fel]

I have to admit I didn't even think about buying divinity with GP as a valid option, 2 hours of divinity for 5 GP at this stage of the game is definitely cheap enough to be worth it, and level 30+ on the divinity generator can be reached easily (although the amount it gives depends on your highest p baal as well).

I'm just taking my time doing 4 hour runs while my pets search for magic mats and afky god gets stronger.
