R22-23

[Easy Frag]

Hey Guys!

My first question in this subforum. I'm having a hard time to get to R23. The previous reincarnations weren't hard and only took a few hours each. Mainly i use mechs till ~e70 gems then fairy and research. Most of the time my last research build looks something like this.
S105,S135,S150,S180,S215,C10,C80,C105,C120,C150,D55,D150,D225,D245,D250,E50,E135,E145,E150,E250,A30,A105,A120,A150,W120,W135,W150,W180,W200

But now i have hit some kind of wall. I need 1e96 gems to proceed and can't overcome e94 gems at the moment. Only very slowly. Maybe someone can have a quick glance at my situation. Maybe i have made a huge blunder without even knowing.

Challenges i have solved all i could so far, except angel 3 which is bugged atm.

Thanks in advance!

Your build's definitely a bit unfocused. S135 and D225 both boost farms, whereas C10 and W120 boost inns and blacksmiths instead. You should focus one or the other, and should definitely drop S150, which does nothing for either; go for S200 instead.

While there's a recommended build for fairy at R23, it doesn't cover your gem range. You may want to try a slight modification of the recommended R24 build:

S105,S135,S180,S200,S215,C80,C105,C120,C135,C150,D55,D200,D225,D245,D250,E50,E135,E145,E150,E200,A30,A105,A120,A150,A250,W135,W150,W180,W200,W250

Also, while neutral factions are not yet preferred for production, you should seek to unlock their researches if you haven't done so, since some will be necessary additions to your production builds.

Wow, this is more help than i've even dreamed of! Thanks a lot.

Even though i was 1/3 there with your recommended build it was done in a few min. My build was very close, but small changes can have big consequences.

Tbh i'm not that far into the mechanics of the game. S200 for example i've cut out, because i don't know how the 3000% is applied. I have all spells on silver autocast. I wonder if it's triggered once you run the taxes or after. But now i assume it's awared towards the taxes.

Also i'm not sure how to unlock Research for neutral factions. I know it comes with R23. And as a final question. Was i right with faries from R18-R23 for the lategame builds. I don't feel angels or elves be faster.

Autocast depend on setting and it is described directly in game. Most convenient is to set all spells on silver/brown (depend how is your mana production) and tax collection on gold.

This way all spells set your production to max possible rewad first and while active tax collection make profit from any exceed mana. (btw I personaly never found any benefit for change treshold of mana for autocasting other than 100%...)

Most people prefer elves, but I was perfectly fine and had best results with (beside mercenary builds for certain gem levels) fairies and later fairies/dwarves (woth prestige research) - till ascension (R40) where everything change and from there you will go mostly with neutral races for a change.

In general if you are stuck check if you have all possibls researches. Dont fear to experiment. It is not always intuitive how all synergies works but you can just export the game, do some research choices - check results. Import game back for different choice and see difference. Once more research is available you usaly (for balanced progressing build) want boost some FC find chance and mana regen, some additional assistants (usualy more abilities for assistant gains is not so useful, just one biggest addition usualy work best) and with rest focus on boost same type of building as mentioned (in time clicking and gem reward increase in importance)

I would say that "popular builds" (Wiki, Musicfamily..) are ofc working but I am not convinced they are the best possible choices and they also stole fun from the game (because what gives you jsut copy paste something from net..).

For neutral research, you should already have the quests to unlock the unique buildings available, but you'll need an artifact for the upgrade that unlocks their research - make more excavations.
