Twenty-fifth Super Ascend!

New bonus: +1 slot
Kept: Insane A$B, Legendary AV, TW, SAC, ACampB, CB, RCB, MD, HB, BMB, Epic MCB, TS, SS
Bonuses: +11 slots, +300% AP, 0.8^2 dig time

Once again the extra dig speed was very helpful in clearing up the dig bottleneck I would have had without it. I'm still not quite there yet, I got everything dug up in time, but crunching everything down into an Epic was done after hitting the AP necessary to SA. I could have fixed that with CW artifacts but I opted not to.

As I write this, my new Legendary BMB is already doing some heavy lifting on Huruey's Castle. The effect was pretty noticeable even on the later levels (reducing the time to first Market), but I expect a larger impact on the early levels. Time will tell.

I don't have any candidates for next Legendary (after MCB) yet. Depending on how that search goes it may be time to make another Insane.

Also, I lied last time, I forgot I would need another slot this time, so no dig bonus this time around.

Next up: 20% faster digs, Legendary MCB (this SA)

I have super-ascended a twenty-second time.

5th super. +100% insane av, legendary sac (upgrading), green tw Took one month since last super. 3 weeks to get the ap and one week to finish digging - bad luck on epic digs and didn’t get one a$b in the month Would rather spend a week with high idle time chilling than spend a cycle on faster digs

Twenty-sixth Super Ascend!

New bonus: 20% faster digs
Kept: Insane A$B, Legendary AV, TW, SAC, ACampB, CB, RCB, MD, HB, BMB, MCB, Rare MB, IM
Bonuses: +11 slots, +300% AP, 0.8^3 dig time

I had tons of dig buffer this time around, unfortunately, I didn't turn up any good candidates for a next Legendary.

The Legendary BMB did make a quite measurable difference, so I think that one is a keeper.

The Legendary MCB is still cooking, but the Epic felt pretty weak. I think that is destined to be fodder that I won't bother replacing any time soon.

Otherwise, a pretty unremarkable SA.

Next up: TBD

15 supers: +200%AP, 9 artifact slots:



P.S. As you see Didn't made HCCC because it wasn't needed in this SA and I also depleted Hex IM powers :( (I think I'll run out of SL soon).

1st super ascend

3 artifacts

epic army camp boost upgrading with 4d23h remaining
legendary supercharge army camp
insane time warp with 10h cooldown

Forgot to check when I first played before ascending.

Based on past games, I started playing QM at 2021-06-26 17:17:14 (UTC+2?). That must be idle arena.
Last classic game before that was at 2020-03-03 14:41:51.

So I super ascended after 3 years 2 months 2 weeks. I didnt play for a few months In the middle.

My play was sometimes intense micromanagement, sometimes dont care let time run let auto work. More of the latter in the last year.

Finally, Ivan has gone silent... does the dragon rest now that there is nothing left to accomplish?

I still watch this thread

Surely there is something left to accomplish ivan

"Surely there is something left to accomplish ivan "

I guess there is also classic single player, get all them gold stars.
Top each of the ladders.

After that, and all the doable achievements, there is only classic.

Why is Fizzer listed as having 1 super ascension, you can check on profile that he doesn't even have the achievement...

I have super-ascended a twenty-third time.

Everything’s coming up chillhouz!

Twenty-seventh Super Ascend!

New bonus: +25% AP
Kept: Insane A$B, ACampB (6d3h to go), Legendary AV, TW, SAC, RCB, MD, Epic CB, SC, TS, Rare HB, BMB, TMB
Bonuses: +11 slots, +325% AP, 0.8^3 dig time

Well, RNG decided this one for me. As you may recall, I was undecided on plans for this SA. However, when WZIB dropped an Epic CB into my lap for 1st place I decided it was time to make an Insane ACampB.

I crunched a CB, HB, BMB and MCB to make the new ACampB and was only really concerned about replacing the HB as I had the Epic CB already and the BMB is mostly just a luxury. Although I wasn't able to dig any suitable replacement artifacts before "completing" the SA, with 1h28m Common digs I wasn't too worried about finding another HB and set to digging for one after hitting the requisite AP for SA (and starting the artifact upgrade). ~3 days later and I finally find my new HB, having also found a BMB and TMB ahead of that, I opted to bring them all up to Rare as I had just the right amount of artifact wealth for it.

All of the above aside, the dig buffer was tight, but not too bad. Unfortunately with no ACampB for (most of, if not all of) this SA, things are going to be very slow, the one after should be great though. Plus, I can take all +%AP for awhile again.

Next up: +25% AP, rebuilding (Legendary CB first - this SA)

I SA a second time back in Marchish, but never posted here. Feel like I fine beat the game by stop playing the game last week. Loved the game and thank Fizzer for making a game I enjoyed daily since roughly Artifacts became a thing. Hope everyone that's playing still is because they enjoy it and not because it's an addiction.

Still plan to play the basic game here and there.

Twenty-eighth Super Ascend!

New bonus: +1 slot
Kept: Insane A$B, ACampB, Legendary AV, TW, SAC, RCB, MD, CB, Rare HB, BMB, TMB, SC, SS, ACampB
Bonuses: +12 slots, +325% AP, 0.8^3 dig time

Well, I lied last time, I didn't end up taking +%AP here. I easily dug up two more Rares this SA, so I decided to take advantage of that and grab another slot, which will save me digging up a second rare in a future (quicker) SA. On top of being a collection of future Legendaries (some of them at least), my stash of Rares will save me from digging up two Rares in a single SA for quite awhile.

As for the Insane ACampB, it was quite nice even for the later levels where the impact is significantly less. Trimming the time to CRA is pretty noticeable. The artifact cook finished just in time for Far Land, which is where I draw the line as the first non-early level. On the other side of that coin, I forgot just how painful the early levels are without a Legendary ACampB. I ended up leaning very heavily on my TW this time, both to accelerate the cook time and also to push levels along. Normally I don't bother with TW at all as tying up the slot results in too much of a hassle with artifact swapping compared to the benefit. I am really looking forward to see the Insane ACampB in action on the early levels in SA29.

The weaker CB and HB is actually tangible. I had to bump my AM back up from 125% (final) to 135% (final) to comfortably go draft free on EH. I also had to jump to 107.5% AM as my mid point pause rather than 100% AM. Of course, for most of SA29, i won't have a CB at all, so there's that.

Next up: +25% AP, rebuilding (Legendary BMB probably - needs 2 SAs)
