Figure out how to get the bonuses efficiently and it's barely worth being called an effort. I like the little boost, I can feel it every restart, that's enough.

just do a day or two reset, and build up the lvl's. Only 2t mana for bonuses seems nice.
didn't really think much, only buffed red and blue. got trillions of pearls easy at the end of day 2, and just convert

One of the later pearls (yellow I think) boosts all of the other bonuses.
Beside that do you have to remember that all of the bonuses multiply off each other, so that 10% there and 15% there suddenly grows quite a bit.

tbh i agree and disagree, like the boost is really nice at the beginning of each restart and def contributes a bit to your progress.

but at the same time i struggle to see why this was even added lmao. it doesn't really connect with other mechanics at all, just a tiny buff. idk, maybe this is a good change for early-game players that is designed to become obsolete in later runs but i'd like for there to be some kinda continuity with it and reasons to revisit that menu

idk at the end of the day its harmless, just buying that one upgrade for 2t brings it all back and makes it not very tedious or a waste of time. just a bit confusing as to why its there lol

it takes a few days and you can max it out very easily. Actually I'm more surprised that it only maxes out at level 20 and the bonus never gets bigger, but it's an easy quick booster to starting up each new run. only problem is because of that low cap...it's nothing to me now except for buying the bonuses back with 2e12 mana about 15 seconds into each run

As an early game semi non idle player, the pearls are sort of a fun mechanic for a time when there is really nothing interesting going on in game.

can anyone tell me why when i use a boiler i can never pay the raw to get my pearls back its NEVER an option help?

I hope the pearls get expanded on.

all bonuses suck rune = maxed in about 2hr never needing the top rune as its pointless

same with pearls its a TERRIBLE system atm
just max red nothing else and in 10 hrs ull have all pearls maxed with no need to touch them again ever

pls fix noth runes and pearls or REMOVE THEM as of now they are crap

Can't tell if this is sarcasm or not.

not at all
both are maxed in less than 1 day of play and then you never have to touch them again ever

go find out yourself

runes = 1-2 hrs = maxed and then there is NO reason to max the last rune as all it does is speed up your maxed runes aka pointless

pearls if you only fovus on x red pearls 8-10 hrs maxed all never having to use them again other than 2T raw to rebuy where you left off at MAX
again pointless

fix or remove these useless features

Out of curiosity why are you so sure about that the last rune does nothing?

And yes, you do never have to re-level the pearls after you fully get them all, unless you have an issue getting to the required raw mana, for reasons.

But, they are far from useless as they are easily attained boosts that stack multiply with everything.

the final rune only speeds up production of the previous runes
this is pointless when you get to 100% on all 3 runes in less than an hr

i am not saying their buffs are useless but the system you obtain them from is stupid and pointless

no one will have issue with 2T raw mana
and no the final rune again ONLY speeds up the maxed runes aka its POINTLESS it does not buff any factions just speeds up rune creation which is maxed

sheeeesh go for it.. see what 100% on that final rune does i have
it does nothing

You might want to double check that it does nothing, because it definitely does something, so either you're just missing it or...

mate read it yourself kid
runic prism = pointless
read what it does and then facepalm yourself and come back to post

unless we are talking about a different rune..
the one that is pointless for me at my insane time played is
Prism rune = worthless as the other 3 runes are maxed in less than 1 day of play
