Day 24:

[Strider]

Per Sersemina's request ...

I just spent 2 hours of Souls at level 10 to upgrade everything to:

Goblin Pit Level 2 - Upgrade 7
Troll Block Level 2 - Upgrade 7
Keeper Level 2 - Upgrade 7
Time Machine Level 2
Torture Chamber Level 3
Gold Pit Level 5
Underworld Gate Level 5
Gladiator Trainer Level 5
Heart of Darkness Level 10
Soul Extractor Level 10

[Sersemina]

Thanks! I am starting Extractor 10 in 24 hours or something. After that I will have a gladiator trainer level 4. Then I will go for Heart + Extractor level 11 and level Gladiator up to level 8. Skipping all the secondary buildings seems to be the successful strategy here.

How close are you to defeating 546?

How close are you to defeating 546?

This is my best shot, but it is a month old, using another weapon (doing this experiment) so this probably doesn't answer your question.

I can't tell how close I am to beating a scout or a warrior, because success heavily depends on luck. The strategy is "more damage pls".

However, I am pretty confident I will manage to beat Twister 546 by the end of the year because:

• I will upgrade my weapon within 3 weeks with a non-epic high dexterity one (my current weapon is 5 months old).
  
• By the end of the year I will have 3% higher portal damage bonus (we have 3 warriors in a row ahead and in our guild we eat warriors for breakfast)
  
• In two weeks I will have 40% critical bonus (compared to 15% now)
  
• By the end of the year I will have 60+K primary attribute (compared to 57 now)
  

And yet, let's stick to the Underworld topic - this is my current progress:

No Time Machine?

It's not spectacular, but it's still some free xp + gold.

He is rushing Heart/Extractor so far.

I meant Sersemina, and first few levels cost nothing.

I will probably try te time machine once I get Soul Extractor 10. I have never seen it in action. I only have a test/statistics hero on s1.de and there I have a time machine level 2, but it doesn't help me much for my daily 100 thirst. I will see if the machine is usefull soon. It is already late here (after midnight) and I have to wait another hour to start my Soul Extractor 10... even the small expenses can wait.

Day 32:

[Strider]

Great News! I was checking my browser history for something completely unrelated and came across my old image capture for Twister 545.

Which led me to spend a few mushrooms on Twister 546 and I got really lucky!

Which led me to spend a few mushrooms on Twister 547 and I got really lucky!

Which led me to spend a few mushrooms on Twister 548 and I got really lucky!

545 was beaten using Sersemina's method (Crit Dex Weapon + Dex Gem) +25% crit from Gladiator Trainer
546 was beaten using my method (3x No Crit Weapon + Black Gem) +25% crit from Gladiator Trainer
547 was beaten using Sersemina's method (Crit Dex Weapon + Dex Gem) +25% crit from Gladiator Trainer
548 was beaten using Sersemina's method (Crit Dex Weapon + Dex Gem) +25% crit from Gladiator Trainer

From there its easy sailing for a while ... I'm currently at Tower 881/1000 now

Day 45:

[vladko]

What are your next steps? Save souls for extractor? Spend them for gate (to be able to loot more players)? Upgrade torture chamber?

I meam before update it was easy. Upgrading gate and torture chamber was not necessary, so all you did was upgrading heart and extractor... But did you already made a math how its now? You can use 11 attacks (assuming that you have gate on level 11) instead of just 5. So maybe torture chamber is worth the money now... Not sure, just asking, since you look like one who is taking this seriously

So what do you think is better: save for extractor, or use souls for gate and then save for extractor?

BMWGuinness - congrats on level 12! I will be able to start it in 5 days and wait another 3 days and 8 hours to finish it. The gap between us increases.

vladko, your question is for BMWGuinness, but here is what I did yesterday:

1. I calculated I can start Soul Extractor 12 in 14 days so I could either:

• do nothing, keep attacking the same hero and wait 14 days
• invest resources and attack a higher level hero on the condition I can return my investment in 14 days

2. Here are my calculations for both scenarions:

• Keep attacking a level 35 hero, 50% chamber bonus, 8 times a day, 14 days: 1238 * 8 * 14 = 138K
• Attack a level 127 hero, 60% chamber bonus, 9 times a day, 14 days: 3635 * 9 * 14 = 458K

This means a profit of 320K souls in 14 days!

3. I calculated I needed to

• Build Torture Chamber Level 6
• Build Gate Level 9
• Build Keeper Level 8
• Upgrade Keeper Unit x30

The total expenses were roughly 324K souls.

4. For every other building I asked myself "Will this pay back in 14 days". The answers were:

• Gate Level 10 - No (costs 66K and gives me 14 * 3.6K = 50K in return)
• Chamber Level 7 - No (costs 41K and gives me 227 * 9 * 14 = 29K in return)
• Keeper - No point - I don't have an easy next target to jump to and the prices for Keeper building are too high.

So here I am - waiting to (roughly) return my investment in 14 days and enjoy the profit later
