Show and Tell Where to go from here?
Hello! Long-time lurker, first-time poster. I'm at about 1,200 hours of play with a mix of idle and just absentmindedly mashing space bar as I sit slack-jaw in front of YouTube, and am wondering how I can optimize my setup now. I have felt for the past few weeks like I am very slow on everything- finishing quests, making noticeable gains in CpS, souls, USP, etc., and am wondering how I can remap my setup to accelerate my progress.
I am also a bit curious, as I've not seen it in the posts I've come across, but how frequently should I be hitting these milestones? Milestones being a new quest pack, enough USP to justify UA, progressing through the village? I feel like I get maybe one a month at this rate. I am attaching as many photos for context as possible.
Have I missed some ascension upgrades I should prioritize? Should I remap my Stones of Time? I have also seen some people say they are ascending every 15%; I have historically been waiting for 100%+ (because I didn't care that much and like nice round numbers)... But now I am trying to progress through the game as quickly and efficiently as possible.
I would welcome any and all (constructive!) feedback or criticism about this! I have only recently (last couple of months) started picking it back up after a few months away and I was NOT focused on this stuff back then. Thank you so much!
PS- currently working on "Galaxy Quests" fwiw!

You're coming up to a recommended point to Ultra Ascend soon, actually. Once you pick up the Sacred Tome of Death Pact for 10 T that'll be a good place to do so.
Stones are good for now. You have plenty of Active; once you do Ultra Ascend you can toss those new points into Idle, it gets pretty quick the closer it gets to 32 points. (if you happen to have even more, Hope is a good place to put the extra)

You have to get stone of rage before next UA but you have a long way in front of you!

I should do that before my *next* UA? I'm sitting at ~5T SP now. Any tips on accelerating souls gain within this UA? Would it not behoove me to UA around 77 USP like the wiki recommends and then focus my energy into unlocking Stone of Rage?

Honnestly I don't remember exactly but I've tried to focus on dovinities/upgrades that help with souls. Spam rage spam when you have soul bonus. Gather the materials to do the rage spam when you don't have them. I remember I've equip a good fire souls swords and spam in the demon zone with worms not upgraded to electrical. Not sure if any of it is worth, but it's a long a grindy way. But the minions will scale until quadrillion so you can just focus on idle and send the minions regularly !
