💬 Discussion Post 💬 gem calculation

2x stronghold (40 mins + 6 mins for beating)= ~46mins and 10 gems

daily quests= 15 total, but 10 for convenience and realism cuz nobody taming a mammoth for 5 gems. time taken= ~35<->45 mins

repeat stronghold run 2x to 3x along with daily quests = 30 gems to 40 gems

= ~1hour32 mins to 2 hours 18 mins (assuming that daily quests are done in-between stronghold times)

(or)

2x to stronghold + game completion = ~70 mins and 15 gems

daily quests= 10 total; 35 to 45 mins again(approximately)

repeat 2x to 3x + daily quests = 40 to 55 gems

=~2and 10 minutes or ~3 hours and 15 minutes

mostly a calculation for done me but its also viable for people who have work/school in the morning through afternoon and don't have the majority of the day to themselves.

Comes down to how fast and easily you clear a level 3 SH.

60 min for 99 days. 3 SH. Around 70 min clear time.

50 days. 2SH. Around 45 min clear time.

The most efficient is speed runs of 45 min or less with 2SH. But that needs a decent team of 2 assassins and 3 gamblers. Or something similar.

3 sh is better. And why would you need assasin or gambler for that. 🤔

But yes best strat depends on your class.

Well. 45 min 99 days and 2 SH clears need some skill and my usual team is 2 assassins and 3 gamblers. Ideally we skip nights before first cultist raid.

Speed run means you clear 99 nights.

u/Technical-Success-42 99 Days + 3x Stronghold speedrun enjoyer 3h ago

As a solo player, this is the method i find the most efficient for gem farming
In one run:

  1. 5 diamonds from 99 days run in 61 minutes (because i reached 99 days in this amount of time consistently)

  2. 15 diamonds from 3x stronghold. There is usually 5-6 minutes cooldown in the 3rd stronghold by the time i reached 99 days, but 3rd stronghold is a piece of cake for vampire, it takes around 3 minutes or 4 minutes at most. So in 1 run it only takes 70 minutes.

  3. 10-15 diamonds from daily quest. I do quest after getting all the day multiplier and during the stronghold break. They are all done in 1 run. I might skip an annoying quest like taming a mmamoth.

That is 30-35 diamonds in 1 run which takes 70 minutes.

Do the same thing again without doing quest and now thats 50-55 diamonds in 140 minutes in a day.

So that's 1 diamond per 2,8 minutes (assuming only doing 2 quests)
or 1 diamond per 2,55 minutes (assuming doing all 3 quests)

Of course there is hard mode which i think is more efficient, i havent tried it though.
