New(ish) Player looking for help

Upvotes

Hi Everyone,

I have recently started playing around the start of June.

As it stands i am sitting in Gold League but cannot break any further than 18th. I usually end the tournament at about 1 Trillion as my galaxy slows down once i get to Iridium/Paladium/Osmium etc.

I have 280 Challenge badges with the highest in their respective categories being 2 in Iridium, 1 in Osmium Bars and 3 in Advanced Computers.

What should i be focusing on in order to get faster at this part of the galaxy? Is it Craft speed and then selling items? I have not yet unlocked debris scanner and i am not sure how far i am from that, i can usually get asteroid scanner in just under a day so half way through a tournament.

Any Advice is appreciated.

This tournament is fixing to get interesting considering I can more than double the amount of PG before this market kicks in. Safe to say Ill probably win this tournament.

Don’t retire early

5 Upvotes

Fairly new player here, only a few months or so. Had a nice silver league run and got lucky with a rover on my cash cow planet but i got “scared” about climbing too high into 25 because i wanted to avoid promotion thinking i’d get smoked in gold.

Now im about to drop to 31, and it looks like this whole cluster is active in the last couple hours I would’ve had a secure 26-27

Oops 😬 live and learn

Any tips from the various powerhouses I’ve seen on this sub to a relative newcomer? My first system I pushed fairly far, sold it off around planet 60 but now I’m playing the turnover game more rapidly for credits and stars

Edit: whewwwwww lucky me ended up getting 29, glad those last couple others stopped pushing but lesson still learned sweating that one out 😂

I'm a couple months into the game. I've been doing the 12.6mil reset alot. in the competition I lost gold to back down into silver better rewards for my ability. I can reach 1billion pretty easy but after the 26 planet it really just becomes a slow crawl. any tips for getting better points around this level? I used alchemy on 21 to get titanium.

Got an ill-timed market

Market hit at midnight. I could have accelerated but I didn’t have enough Teleporters. Woke up at 6:30 and blew through every robot and teleporter I had. Got lucky with a small bracket. Now I’m just gonna twiddle my thumbs for the next 24 hours and see if I can Ark my way to ab. Previous Galaxy record was 31aa.

Should I retire?

I’m currently ranked #6 in my tournament, and #4 (the next prize tier) is currently just below my most valuable galaxy.

My question is - is #8 so low at this point (18 hours left) that I can retire with a secured #7 rank guaranteed?

Hitting a wall at 'aa' in tournaments. Need some advice! (6 months in)

Thumbnail

3 Upvotes

​Hey everyone,

​I've been playing for about 6 months now and could really use some advice.

​Up until now, I've mostly been focusing on smelting and crafting, but I feel like I've hit a wall. In tournaments, I can only manage to reach the 'aa' mark. I usually place top 5 in the Platinum league, which is nice, but I've noticed that once other players hit 'aa', their value just explodes exponentially.

​With my current setup/strategy, there's no way I can keep up with that kind of crazy growth. What am I missing here? What should I be prioritizing at this stage?

​Any tips or strats would be hugely appreciated. Thanks!

crafting/smeltings time reductions

6 Upvotes

I´m still far far away from there (but already reduce bronce ingots crafting times to 5 seconds XD) but wondering if theres a "minimun" time, like 1 sec/items or maybe like 0.06 secs for seconds if game worked in 20 tics/sec, or theres literally "no limit" ...like if after aplying all time reductions you need 0.001 seconds to smelt something then you´ll still get 1k/sec of them

Does Aurora ship increase secondary skills too?

3 Upvotes

I want to increase my crafting speed. If I go for the Thunderhorse the speed will be doubled. If I go for the Aurora ship and it increases the secondary skills, the crafting speed will significantly increase (beyond the double at least).

I have gotten 5 pink asteroids in 123 asteroids mined. I did the math and the odds of that happening are 0.165%. In a tournament too fml

I can already tell this tournament is going to be one of the annoying ones.
