Corruption feels like it takes ages to build up.
i can go maybe 30 echoes into a monolith before i come up against any corruption echoes worth its salt,considering how long it can take to do some echoes, this is hours to go up something small like 30 corruption, and when the better gear i need is locked behind the 50-100-or 200 corruption this is so grindy.

I also remember monoliths have +5 and +6's before 1.0 and haven't seen any in like 30 hours of grinding echoes.

Not really

After SweetBabyInc was formed it only took a few years for the video games industry to be corrupted

Yeah I agree. They definitely need to add the option for how much corruption to jump, kind of like they have how much corruption to deplete if you're going down.

Let people speed it up a bit if their builds can handle it.

I'm in 1000+ and was going to agree with you but you complaining about 200 corruption? Just get one to 200 and you'll have a catch up mechanic for the rest.

Also for faster leveling you don't do the shade when you see them, do 4-5 bosses then do the shade. You go up faster by doing echoes far from start

The catchup mechanic rewards focusing on a single timeline at first, get it to as far as you can, and then work on others. The bonus corruption is quite powerful.

im about 35 deep, which takes a while and only seeing about +18's how deep do i have to go lol, gets monotonous doing the same 4 echo types over and over to get a small increment especially as the content right now isnt a challenge, ust hold 3 buttons down as i face tank everything.

Do the 3 lvl 90 monos - That will unlock "empowered".
Which allows you to start at 100 corruption.
Going further from your start point raises the corruption you get from fighting the shade.
To raise corruption faster you want to kill the boss from the quest twice, to get the gaze x2, before you challenge the shade.
But only start doing that once you feel confident about fighting the shade - Since if you die while fighting the shade you lose the +20 corruption bonus for having 2 gazes.
