What weapons did you use against the Island?

I have a general question for everyone:

So I have been making steady progress to T13. I am currently at 20,301 core stats. I have been saving all my boosters for when I turn T13. Once the reset occurs, I know I will get a ton of experience from all the challengers I have unlocked again.

My question is - Do I save all the experience I earn and use it as part of my T13 boost or do I use my experience to boost closer to T13.? I was initially going to use it to do the latter but now I am thinking it might be more useful to save the experience and use it after I use all my boosters to adjust my stats.

I am currently a little over 4k speed. I have found that around halfway through my battle with the castle, I have boosted over 1,500 per stat. At that point I could consistently land crits on the castle and he couldn't crit hit me. I would focus on strength and possibly defense since your speed your speed is a lot higher than mine and you will be able to start critting him early if you are consistently boosting.

I kept flip-flopping between OHS and trident. For the first two wins I used OHS and unstable syringe. Then for wins 3 and 4 I switched to the trident because the blessing was helping me block almost all of the island's damage. However it isn't consistent in activating. For win 5 I switched back to OHS and the syringe but then I swapped out my aftershocks scroll for ocean currents since I was using OHS again. The other weapons I used were:

the one ring, reviver, pquill, scientist specs, rblaster, soma. The scrolls I used were gotf, OC, cobalt (x1) and SE (x2)

I was actually struggling with whether or not to use my boosters for a while. I was hoarding them for a few months, then Morostide rolled around, I wanted a leg up on fighting the challengers, so I spent them.

But now I wonder if I shouldn't have saved them for my t6. Or just stop using them on Pacifist, and hoard them FOREVER for when Cibophobia gets closer. Anyway, my point is, I'm looking forward to hearing other people's thoughts on this question.

Pacifist's speed and defense are the same. And I have just over 1m exp to blow. I could just keep going pure strength, but crits are fun. I find defense boring lolol maybe I shouldn't

Wonderful thank you! As for your question, you could split your boosting. Boost a little now then finish boosting after the reset? (Hope I read your question right sorry if I messed up.. x.x)

Okay maybe I didn't explain that right lol. So I am using my experience now, that's how I have been slowly getting to T13. It's mostly been experience from BQs and from the challengers I am beating now. All of my boosters (shinwas stuff, tomes, potions from the battle shop, etc) I am saving for after I turn T13 since experience will cost more to use. After the reset though I can battle everyone again and get a ton of experience.

My question is what should I do with my experience I gain after the reset? Should I use it to boost to get closer to T13 or save a majority of it for after I use my other boosters so I could tailor my stats?

Oh sorry! I would use it to even out your stats after using your boosters. :D

If you're after a certain build, yeah, why not blow the boosters, and use the exp to get where you want?

To Next Tier: 21214 / 22001 Less than 800 stats and Pacifist will be t13. I have enough exp right now to get her there. This is actually a very exciting night, isn't it? Maybe I will buy some weapons to celebrate!

I think it really depends on your priorities. Are you looking to get a pet to cap or are you looking for more pets to beat more challengers and win extra loot? If the first is more important then you will want to use your boosters on Pacifist. If the second, then you will want to give the boosters and some BQs to your second pet. Oranos is T10 now because I have been splitting BQs with him and Verdugo every other month. Now that training times are starting to go up for him, I may just have them continue to split every month. Once Verdugo is T13 I was going to only train him with boosters and Oranos would get all the BQs.

Thanks for the input!

[edit]

You will get a weapon as an achievement prize for hitting T13 ;)

Good luck and sorry if I'm like no help.... I think my brain is broken today. x.x

No that was helpful!

Back clicking through pages and wanted to comment on some things!

What a build, you two! I stopped using exp for health when Pacifist hit 8k, but maybe I should dump some more in to that now.

I think I'm doing 12/11/6/6. Fairly sure that's where I wanna settle. Gotta get my hp up quite a bit and then leech a little speed and defense.

I may actually do 12/12/6/5 cause I hate speed and it's dumb. But that's pushing it a little bit, since my new pet is a 0 speed build and I wanna keep some variance in my pets.

If you aren't using your boosters till after T13, then definitely use your experience first. Cause as soon as you hit T13, exp costs triple. BQs will even out your stats eventually, but you'll lose out on a ton of free stats if you wait to use your reset exp.

So you think use exp, then boost?

I just pulled 750m out of my vault. I'm trying to work myself up to buying Natasha. I'm nervous she'll be cheaper some other time, even though she's a year round stock, not seasonal.

Yeah, at least when you're close to T13, cause the price difference is just so drastic. You can buy 3 hp now, or 1 hp after boosting and crossing the threshold.

lol, it's never changed price as long as it's been out, and I'm pretty sure people would riot if it did.

hahahahaha i just discovered that apparently i havent been on top of my cash shop challengers and i didnt buy at least two of them neato way to go squid seriously good job

I just reached Tier 12, and I feel accomplished x3. Is this the highest Tier that there is?

Cynde To Next Tier: 7603 / 8000

-squeaks- Less than 400 stats to go oh my goodness.... ;-; BQs over the next 6 days should help and once the reset happens the hoarded EXP and then the massive turning in of amulets should get us there.... so exciting!

Huge congrats on tier 12! Next stop tier 13 which is 22,000 in total stats all the way to 35,000 which means you've capped.

Oh that is cool :D, and thank you :3. On a slightly separate topic, I think I necro-ed like 3 threads accidentally Dx. I forget to check the dates, and just respond.

The cost of stats in T13 costs three times the EXP, so I would use your experience now and save your item stat boosters for T13. If you are aiming for a high health build, I would also recommend dumping as much as possible of that EXP into health because health costs 4,500 EXP in T13 and every other stat costs 3,750. It just makes sense to splurge on health now.

Edit: And I think I misunderstood the question, too. LOL! You will even your stats out eventually so the timing is kind of up to you? It comes down to whether you want to reach T13 sooner or later. The only real reason to wait is if you want to be in T12 for the next boss battle (if there are tier specific prizes). Otherwise, use that EXP to boost yourself right up to T13 :D

Congratulations on T12 :D

Congrats on getting through level 30 in BQs. That is a huge milestone :D <3

This is what I was going to tell you too. A single health using you EXP on a T13 will cost you 4,500 points vs the 1,500 now (t12). If it was me I would save the boosters until after your T13, but use your EXP before hand. ;)

Oops, sorry about the ping
