You're Quinner
[synergism] Quinn's guide to the post-C11 era
You're Quinner
so once you clear Challenge 11, your ants will be 100,000 times stronger, meaning things will be nice
You're Quinner
your goal is now to gradually move your ascension duration from days to seconds
You're Quinner
first part of that is via cubes
You're Quinner
each time you ascend, you get cubes
You're Quinner
roughly even split your cubes between upgrades and just opening them
You're Quinner
a good upgrade route:
You're Quinner
oh, notation
You're Quinner
"wAxB" means "the wow cube upgrade in row A and column B"
You're Quinner
- w1x1 capped
You're Quinner
- w1x7 for particle building automation
You're Quinner
- the other first-row automation upgrades are optional but nice
You're Quinner
- w1x3 capped
You're Quinner
- w2x2 capped
You're Quinner
then everything into tributes until you have aboutttt 20-30k
You're Quinner
Tesseracts
You're Quinner
You get (for now) one cube tesseract per ascension
You're Quinner
spend 1 to get a Dot, and do NOT spend 8 to get another dot
You're Quinner
spend 10 to get a tier 2 building
You're Quinner
oh shit this is all pre-c11 I'm dumb SKIPPING AHEAD
You're Quinner
AUTOMATE EVERYTHING TIME
You're Quinner
By this point you should be able to farm cubes pretty fast by repeatedly ascending
You're Quinner
but that should be easier
You're Quinner
so you need to aim for a few specific upgrades
You're Quinner
- research 6x25 - Auto Challenge
You're Quinner
this'll be actually about the last of these you get
You're Quinner
so let's come back to it
You're Quinner
- Research 6x5 - Auto Fortify
You're Quinner
automatically puts fragments towards talismans
You're Quinner
- Research 6x10 - Auto Enhance
You're Quinner
automaticlaly enhances talismans
You're Quinner
now you can stop going to the talismans screen
You're Quinner
- If you don't have it, Instant Challenges from the quark shop
You're Quinner
- All first-row automators in wow cubes
You're Quinner
- w2x10 - rune automation now distributes exp evenly between all five runes
You're Quinner
now you don't have to go to the runes screen ever again
You're Quinner
by now you should be able to just sit on the challenge screen
You're Quinner
- w1x10 - Auto Ascend
You're Quinner
it's on the Corruption screen. Set it to auto-ascend whenever c10 clears is 1
You're Quinner
- research 6x25 - Auto Challenge
You're Quinner
for real this time!
You're Quinner
this thing is a little more complicated
You're Quinner
it gives you a bot that will run challenges for you, and you decide how
You're Quinner
with Start Time, Exit Time, and Enter Time
You're Quinner
Start Time - the bot waits this long before starting a sweep of the challenges
You're Quinner
Exit Time - if the bot spends this much time in a challenge without clearing it, it will abandon the challenge and move on to the next one
You're Quinner
Enter Time - the bot waits this long before starting the next challenge
You're Quinner
fiddle with these to find a time you like - at higher levels, I have it set to 2, 0.5, 0.5 respectively
You're Quinner
your goal should be something like
You're Quinner
set this up so that by the time it finishes its second loop through the challenges, you ascend
You're Quinner
spend a bunch of tributes to get stronger to help this happen
You're Quinner
save up and get the third tesseract building somewhere around here
You're Quinner
update I just learned -
You're Quinner
once you get w3x8 (automatically gain particles without having to reincarnate), try setting the challenge bot to 0/0.5/0
You're Quinner
so with all that and some love and care
You're Quinner
you should be able to get your ascension time down to about 30 seconds or less
You're Quinner
when you're feeling confident, clear c11 again for even more absurd ant power
You're Quinner
btw you'll unlock the ability to open tesseracts like cubes during this process
You're Quinner
don't do this
You're Quinner
not for a LONG time
You're Quinner
so
You're Quinner
now it's time to talk
You're Quinner
about CORRUPTIONS
You're Quinner
the TLDR of corruptions is that they make runs harder but also increase rewards
You're Quinner
each one can be leveled anywhere between 0 and 12
You're Quinner
the higher the level, the more multiplies your score for the run
You're Quinner
the higher the score, the more cubes and tesseracts you get
You're Quinner
my rule of thumb is around the 20-second mark
You're Quinner
once you can ascend in under 20 seconds, up your corruption
You're Quinner
the rules of thumb for which ones to up are:
Princess Emily
don't be like me and mess with corruption early on,,,
You're Quinner
- always up I and II together
You're Quinner
- getting a corruption from 0 to 1 is a MASSIVE score boost, 1 to 2 is much smaller
You're Quinner
so, your eventualy goal from there should be all corruptions at level 1
You're Quinner
from there it's time to just make your numbers huge
You're Quinner
main grind is rapid-fire ascensions for more cubes - get all upgrades that cost 100k or less, then grind your tributes up into the millions
You're Quinner
take some time at various points for each of
You're Quinner
- get the 1e28 cost permanent researches
You're Quinner
- do some long runs with big ant sacrifices to farm up your rune blessing levels into six digits
You're Quinner
- get more c11 clears when possible
You're Quinner
- get higher tier Tesseract buildings
You're Quinner
- once you have a tier 5 tesseract building, start opening tesseracts for tributes
You're Quinner
the gate for c12 is somewhere around
You're Quinner
- 10M cube tributes
You're Quinner
- 3.5M levels in each blessing
You're Quinner
- 2K tesseract gifts
You're Quinner
- 5 clears of c11
You're Quinner
I'm getting close to that
You're Quinner
oh important, important note:
You're Quinner
do NOT forget to turn off your corruptions when you go to do things other than farming cubes
