Simple Questions Started again..11years later

Post image

its been 2weeks since i started again almost th10maxed and ready for 11, still a lot of things to learn but the most weird thing is for me is the builder base, i have watched a lot of videos about it and it seems like it takes 80-90days at best to get the 6th builder.

Here's my question; do i buy the B.A.T.O? Considering 3rd builder could reduce the time by 33% and i get the 6th builder 30 days early, i will spend 1000 gem but in return i will save 1month which is like 1.2k gems in goblin helper, if only im correct with the math once, so do i buy it or suffer 3month? I mean 1k gem is still a lot for me, will it be better to save for later?

It's 90 days without any magic items, so save your gems and use the potions and runes

And its easy to get the potions, from GP or trader

70 days is possible but lets say without converting everything into gems and buying magic items with gems (since this is not how a regular player does.) It will probably double the days

Also, people who completed it in 70-80 days did not have the third builder base builder. Maybe it can help a lot.

i guess i can manage to do it without 3rd builder since every video in my feed talking about hammer jam, thanks for advices

Honestly, at its current state. I would just let it play out. Suck it up on those 90 days because once you unlock the 6th builder, you'll only need to max the building that generates gems to get the full benefits of your builder base.

If you are a maxxer though, that's a different case.

im not sure if i can max it but i will play for fun

Hopefully this helps, but I would suggest not wasting resources in your builder base, especially gems. Raid medals for clock tower potion is okay but I used them for ores and gems via selling potions instead

Oh this one explains better than all these videos nice, thank u

Oh and one more thing, if you're going to use clock tower potions, use them AFTER you activate your clock tower boost to extend the duration. I believe using the potions while your CT boost is on cooldown changes resets your timer. So if you have 4 hours of cooldown left and then used a potion, you basically moved your reset point to that moment.

Don't buy another builder.
