damn my advisor is tiny now

quaint cedar Oct 1, 2025, 8:18 AM

#

yeah, because now health/dmg is much more expensive now, i thought its better to get resources than pack it into health/dmg and got nothing....

hollow glacier Oct 1, 2025, 8:18 AM

#

quaint cedar yeah, because now health/dmg is much more expensive now, i thought its better to...

well, that's true

#

until you hit a wall

quaint cedar Oct 1, 2025, 8:19 AM

#

yeah, then choose health 😄

hollow glacier Oct 1, 2025, 8:19 AM

#

and walls are much easier to sense now

quaint cedar Oct 1, 2025, 8:20 AM

#

anyone want to try B26 from above? i got 90 Fr left and not much to do with it 😄

hollow glacier Oct 1, 2025, 8:20 AM

#

you mean b28

quaint cedar Oct 1, 2025, 8:20 AM

#

yeah yeha. b28

hollow glacier Oct 1, 2025, 8:21 AM

#

eh
I may try, but earliest clear we got is 2.3x at 75

#

and 2.2x at almost 100, which is obviously unusuable in your situation

#

nah, I don't think it's possible at 2x with 90 FR
they shred through armored cruiser

#

and fighters also can't tank that

#

i mean
one of the bloodiest battles in all of g6, imo, is b36 for a reason

#

it features just 10 basics

#

and basic enemies actually strong

quaint cedar Oct 1, 2025, 9:02 AM

#

thanks!

quaint cedar Oct 1, 2025, 2:22 PM

#

anyone knows how to add empty cell between 2 filled one?:P

#

need 2 empty cells where the red line is

light flax Oct 1, 2025, 2:37 PM

#

I don't know, so I would ctrl-X everything below the line and paste it two cells lowers to check if its works.

wet seal Oct 2, 2025, 1:34 AM

#

yeah, I wanted to ask about this, but it's really a pointless question. Tons of results in the spreadsheet are just obsolete waste of space now and can be safely deleted.

#

the only ones that might be worth keeping are if there's a result that's only for, for example, 3.525, but there is no result for 3.5/3.75; then, maybe, it's worth considering that result for re-evaluation @ 3.5

#

but the likelihood of such results is pretty damn low

quaint cedar Oct 2, 2025, 2:58 AM

#

anyone to figure it out ? 🙂

hollow glacier Oct 2, 2025, 7:52 AM

#

#

so your setup was almost good

royal token Oct 5, 2025, 10:12 PM

#

oh man, B33 has me stumped, can't take everything out and do damage to the boss... not got levels in S5 yet so I guess that's the issue?

quaint cedar Oct 6, 2025, 2:10 AM

#

anyone knows B25 , 2.75 stats correct layout? One from spreadsheet doesnt work

hollow glacier Oct 6, 2025, 7:29 AM

#

yeah, since we don't have 2.75x layout there

#

time for you to find layout

quaint cedar Oct 6, 2025, 7:30 AM

#

there is 2.7

#

so in theory 2.75 should be better 😛

hollow glacier Oct 6, 2025, 7:30 AM

#

no

hollow island Oct 6, 2025, 7:30 AM

#

in practice

hollow glacier Oct 6, 2025, 7:30 AM

#

if you think that, you don't have enough experience

#

with galaxies

quaint cedar Oct 6, 2025, 7:30 AM

#

i know reallity

hollow island Oct 6, 2025, 7:30 AM

#

you kill a ship earlier so you move forward and take damage

hollow glacier Oct 6, 2025, 7:31 AM

#

all breaks really easily with small changes(

quaint cedar Oct 6, 2025, 7:31 AM

#

i know because 1 ship survives longer, enemy ship may move completley different and it will change whole fight

hollow island Oct 6, 2025, 7:31 AM

#

chaotic

hollow glacier Oct 6, 2025, 7:38 AM

#

lol, advisor for 2.5 isn't validable

#

this is almost advisor FR

#

0.25 FR missing(

quaint cedar Oct 6, 2025, 11:25 AM

#

thanks

hollow glacier Oct 6, 2025, 11:30 AM

#

yeah, it's 0.25fr more than Advisor, but sadly, I wasn't able to come up with same FR fast enough

#

like, it would require more than just changing fighters position

quaint cedar Oct 6, 2025, 11:31 AM

#

hmm, i just tried it and result is much different than advisor's i just dont want to sound ungratful 😄

hollow glacier Oct 6, 2025, 11:31 AM

#

strange

#

let me try again

quaint cedar Oct 6, 2025, 11:31 AM

#

advisor's setup has 2x fighters

#

maybe you just paste wrong screenshot?

hollow glacier Oct 6, 2025, 11:32 AM

#

quaint cedar advisor's setup has 2x fighters

it doesn't?

#

for me

#

riiight

#

I'm out of galaxy

#

I have different advisor

#

what's yours and how many FR it uses?

#

this is my advisor

quaint cedar Oct 6, 2025, 11:33 AM

#

hollow glacier Oct 6, 2025, 11:33 AM

#

damn, your advisor is much better, yeah

quaint cedar Oct 6, 2025, 11:34 AM

#

and imagine this missing FR actually would let me do 1 more node 😄

hollow glacier Oct 6, 2025, 11:34 AM

#

let me try a little

#

for my advisor I was able to get to 55.37

quaint cedar Oct 6, 2025, 11:35 AM

#

i need 100 FR for b36 😄

hollow glacier Oct 6, 2025, 11:45 AM

#

I need to save 2 more FR somehow

fickle flame Oct 6, 2025, 11:53 AM

#

vertically mirrored

hollow glacier Oct 6, 2025, 11:55 AM

#

vertical mirror is 2 FR worse, lol

hollow island Oct 6, 2025, 11:55 AM

#

???

hollow glacier Oct 6, 2025, 11:55 AM

#

as per usual

hollow island Oct 6, 2025, 11:56 AM

#

average day

fickle flame Oct 6, 2025, 11:59 AM

#

lmao

hollow glacier Oct 6, 2025, 12:04 PM

#

54.34, still have more to save

hollow glacier Oct 6, 2025, 12:31 PM

#

okay, I have zero idea how to save more(

#

54.34 is the closest I can get, there should be something I'm missing

quaint cedar Oct 7, 2025, 4:50 AM

#

eh, rerunning almost every single node every 2-3 travells kills me, can't imagine that before change

hollow glacier Oct 7, 2025, 7:28 AM

#

that was easy
I just didn't rerun nodes most of the time

crude garnet Oct 7, 2025, 2:30 PM

#

Anyone mind giving me a set up for b46 a 3.75 fleet power. This galaxy has severely overstayed it's welcome and i really don't want to deal with this anymore.

timber turret Oct 7, 2025, 2:31 PM

#

Have you checked the spreadsheet?

crude garnet Oct 7, 2025, 2:31 PM

#

now that i know there's a spread sheet.

timber turret Oct 7, 2025, 2:31 PM

#

it's probably the best thing this community created lol

crude garnet Oct 7, 2025, 2:31 PM

#

that pin could probably use a description

timber turret Oct 7, 2025, 2:32 PM

#

Yeah true

#

@sharp thorn

#

Could you perhaps add a little headline

crude garnet Oct 7, 2025, 3:22 PM

#

On one hand it is pleasing just how many of my solutions to battles are either matching the spreadsheet or within 1 or 2 fleetpower of it.

On the otherhand that was probably 8sh hours of effort i could have not done.

quaint cedar Oct 8, 2025, 12:49 AM

#

once i clear G6, should i still pump S nodes or go for R? my current stats are 3.75

hollow glacier Oct 8, 2025, 8:08 AM

#

R nodes first

solar fossil Oct 10, 2025, 9:38 PM

was there not a pin at one point showing ship set ups for certain levels?

hollow glacier Oct 10, 2025, 9:38 PM

#

it's still there

#

first pin of the channel
G6 doc

solar fossil Oct 10, 2025, 9:42 PM

#

i cant find where it says which ships to choose on the L nodes

#

i guess theres just the 2 L nodes, but for L1 do you go corvette or frigate?

hollow glacier Oct 10, 2025, 9:43 PM

#

ah

#

I see what you mean

#

do whatever you want, but most people choose fighers

solar fossil Oct 10, 2025, 9:44 PM

#

oh word

#

wouldnt have expected that

hollow glacier Oct 10, 2025, 9:44 PM

#

well, it's, afaik, the most popular choice

solar fossil Oct 10, 2025, 9:44 PM

#

to block the volleys im guessing

hollow glacier Oct 10, 2025, 9:44 PM

#

and damage

solar fossil Oct 10, 2025, 9:44 PM

#

huh

hollow glacier Oct 10, 2025, 9:44 PM

#

fighters are quite good

solar fossil Oct 10, 2025, 9:44 PM

#

learn something new every day

hollow glacier Oct 10, 2025, 9:45 PM

#

they have suprprisingly high DPS, and can tank more hits due to the nature of them being oneshotted
but there's still another 8

#

while corvettes get oneshotted and there's 3 left

solar fossil Oct 10, 2025, 9:45 PM

#

yeah it definetly makes sense

hollow glacier Oct 10, 2025, 9:45 PM

#

so fighters can actually deal with mediums somewhat well

#

and a lot of clears, afaik, use 2+ fighters

#

on google doc

solar fossil Oct 10, 2025, 9:46 PM

#

i just casted the idea of them to the side in g5 and never really used them

hollow glacier Oct 10, 2025, 9:46 PM

#

frigate 100% is the least popular choice

solar fossil Oct 10, 2025, 9:46 PM

#

where in the doc do you see the ship stuff?

hollow glacier Oct 10, 2025, 9:46 PM

#

I don't think there's any

#

and I don't think there ever was

solar fossil Oct 10, 2025, 9:47 PM

#

im tripping then

#

it could have just been a message someone sent with what ship layouts they were using

hollow glacier Oct 10, 2025, 9:47 PM

#

but, as you can see, a lot of clears use 2 fighters

solar fossil Oct 10, 2025, 9:49 PM

#

on this page right?

hollow glacier Oct 10, 2025, 9:49 PM

#

no

#

on clears pages

#

this is scrap calc

#

not g6

solar fossil Oct 10, 2025, 9:50 PM

#

omg

#

i was in the wrong doc

hollow glacier Oct 10, 2025, 9:50 PM

#

yes

solar fossil Oct 10, 2025, 9:50 PM

#

i see what youre talking about now

#

ty

#

i was so confused

fossil hedge Oct 13, 2025, 9:51 AM

#

Got something changed regarding the S-nodes? Looking at the sheet all the stats have 0.1 incrementals but the first node already gives you 0.25?

hollow glacier Oct 13, 2025, 9:57 AM

#

yes

#

in last patch it was changed

fossil hedge Oct 13, 2025, 9:58 AM

#

Ah okay. Gonna try to help filling the sheet then roo7

warm plank Oct 13, 2025, 9:59 AM

#

is it an overall change in strength? or just different distribution by making it less levels? it feels kinda bad imo having to do multiple runs to do some early S nodes but idk if it was actually a change in stats

hollow glacier Oct 13, 2025, 9:59 AM

#

different distribution at least

#

maybe max strength is lower now too, but I can't say that, since I don't remember

#

but distribution is totally different now, sometimes you don't even cross with what was before
like 3.6 was important point

#

now it's 3.5 into 3.75

warm plank Oct 13, 2025, 10:01 AM

#

hmmm yeah that does make it so that you have to spend more resources at first to get over that threshold ig, because you dont scale with those small steps anymore

fossil hedge Oct 13, 2025, 10:01 AM

#

Seems like you have six S nodes with 2 levels of 0.25 each. So you end up at 3.0x

hollow glacier Oct 13, 2025, 10:02 AM

#

you can't end up at 3.0

fossil hedge Oct 13, 2025, 10:02 AM

#

No wait

#

One has three levels

hollow glacier Oct 13, 2025, 10:02 AM

#

you should end up at 4.0 at least

fossil hedge Oct 13, 2025, 10:02 AM

#

So 4.25, yeah

muted osprey Oct 13, 2025, 12:49 PM

#

YA

#

HUGE

#

probably just launched me to s125... lets give a shot

#

fossil hedge Oct 14, 2025, 9:00 AM

#

Tried to de-mess the spreadsheet a bit by italic/strikethrough the non-existent powers again

#

Would you say it's better to completely delete them instead?

#

Looks pretty clunky though

light flax Oct 14, 2025, 9:09 AM

#

If those values are impossible to get, then removing them completely seems fine.

fossil hedge Oct 14, 2025, 9:10 AM

#

They changed the scaling to always be .025 steps now, so yeah, they can't be reached anymore

verbal storm Oct 16, 2025, 4:54 AM

gonna calculate if going for F1 isnt worth it for BB2 so far at 2.75x its better to skip it

fossil hedge Oct 19, 2025, 6:36 PM

Can someone help find the correct picture here? Tried a bunch of 430 FR setups at 3.75 but I lack about 1k damage

while you are at it can you remove the outdated values?

it's not you, it's the document, somebody missclicked or sth and deleted/moved the screenshot

there's a 'view previous versions', if you go back far enough there is a chance that missing picture will still be there (after that you coud copy it, and fix it in current version)

#

I'm confused by B4. How does increasing your dmg/health reduce your ending stats?

hollow island Oct 22, 2025, 11:35 AM

#

you kill an enemy earlier so your ship moves forward and take damage

#

(this usually doesnt happen)

charred grove Oct 22, 2025, 11:37 AM

#

ok...so it's fire rate differential there that's killing me

#

not killing, but "killing" my efficiency

hollow island Oct 22, 2025, 11:39 AM

#

this reduced but didnt completely prevent the issue

charred grove Oct 22, 2025, 11:41 AM

#

what's wild is that in this case, it isn't tied to a "little bump". it's everything over

#

I mean, there must be a better solution out there...hrm.

in theory there should always be a slightly better solution as stats go up

charred grove Oct 22, 2025, 11:51 AM

#

I'd also like to know how mirroring against an even enemy layout isn't the same.

hollow island Oct 22, 2025, 11:52 AM

#

some thing to do with "which target to move forward/shoot at when 2 targets are the same distance"

hollow glacier Oct 22, 2025, 11:52 AM

#

easy

charred grove Oct 22, 2025, 11:52 AM

#

I was just about to postulate that it's the queue order in the data structure 😄

hollow glacier Oct 22, 2025, 11:52 AM

#

when you have 2 identical targets

#

ships choose higher ship

#

always

charred grove Oct 22, 2025, 11:53 AM

#

"northern" ship?

hollow glacier Oct 22, 2025, 11:53 AM

#

if 2 enemy ships have same distance to both, and same class, it always choose higher ship

#

yes, you may call it northern

#

that's why mirroring creates sometimes different results

charred grove Oct 22, 2025, 11:53 AM

#

gotcha

hollow island Oct 22, 2025, 11:55 AM

#

~~whats north in space~~

hollow glacier Oct 22, 2025, 11:55 AM

#

that's why I said "higher"

#

since screen is 2d, higher on the screen is easy to check

charred grove Oct 22, 2025, 11:56 AM

#

higher is a nebulous term without a target. higher position.

#

but I knew what you meant earlier.

hollow glacier Oct 22, 2025, 11:57 AM

#

anyways, yeah, it's easy to test

#

and that's why mirroring sometimes is different

#

but not always

charred grove Oct 22, 2025, 11:57 AM

#

no, that makes sense. in a deterministic sort of way. clearly the solution is to randomize even distances. 😄

hollow glacier Oct 22, 2025, 11:57 AM

#

and that's why all of this is inconsistent

#

because even small positive change may create negative reaction

charred grove Oct 22, 2025, 11:58 AM

#

Or, in the case of B4 cause your ships to run faster and faster into the missile barrage

There’s a very specific example of this early (B6 I think). The more damage your ships do, the faster they fly into the barrage missiles. And that is because, I believe, that missile fire rate is gated by flight time. The sooner they hit, the sooner they can relaunch.

jagged tundra Nov 1, 2025, 8:17 PM

#

neon haven the thing that annoys me the most is upgrading stats leading to worse battle out...

I feel like this is sorta the job of the auto-solver. After I come up with my own solution every run through of the galaxy with auto-solve should nudge me toward the most optimal solution until it arrives there after something like 3 to 5 passes.

neon haven Nov 1, 2025, 9:37 PM

#

yeah if you only had to find solutions one time per battle and then just let auto-improve do it's job it would be a lot less annoying at times. If you want to do that on your own go ahead but if I'm just not really that interested having auto-improve be actually decent would be great as an option

not

Even with ~1.4-8x from B6 (went up over time due to it being such a long galaxy) I also ended up with a looooot of runs. I reinforced twice during G6. Probably way more than necessary because bases is my most disliked system and I neglect them constantly. Kinda makes me wonder what the median runs to clear G6 is.

hollow glacier Nov 26, 2025, 7:01 PM

#

woeful goblet Is there a guide or explanation of how targeting works in Fleet battles somewher...

ships always fly towards the closest highest ship of its class (small to small, medium to medium)
if it can attack ship of the same size, it will attack it, closest and highest
if it can't, but has ship of different size that it can attack, it will attack closest and highest ship of any size
if it can't attack anything right now, it will continue flying

#

iirc, that's the rules

woeful goblet Nov 26, 2025, 7:02 PM

#

Highest being highest starting health I assume?
It would be so nice to get them to stop trying to all shoot the same ship. Some kind of "overkill avoidance" or something.
Looks like there was some bug where only two beams could target one enemy at some point. Would be a nice feature for fighters.

naive inlet Nov 26, 2025, 7:04 PM

#

That's why its always a good idea to try different layouts
Because it depends a lot on starting grid

#

Also flip your layout whenever possible to check if it's better
It often is

hollow glacier Nov 26, 2025, 7:06 PM

#

woeful goblet Highest being highest starting health I assume? It would be so nice to get them...

no

#

highest being
Well
highest from top to bottom

#

on vertical scale

#

that's why mirrored setups don't always work the same

#

because highest ship changes

#

and range to ships also changes a little bit because of that

#

and that's why changing guns on fighters can lead to big changes in FR

#

because they can engage enemies from higher range

woeful goblet Nov 26, 2025, 7:10 PM

#

Thanks.
I mess with my layouts a decent amount but definitely don't min-max them as much as I could.
I think I'm mainly thinking of UT battles after the cells are full. At that point, regardless of layout, I tend to end up watching a bunch of Fighters and Corvettes focus firing things one at a time with 3x-10x the damage needed to kill the thing and 10+ valid targets nearby.
Though I guess the enemy must be using the same logic and would benefit equally from any overkill avoidance logic.

hollow glacier Nov 26, 2025, 7:11 PM

#

yes, enemy uses same logic

woeful goblet Nov 26, 2025, 7:44 PM

Some battle nodes Hazards can't be removed, right? Like G6 B17 will always have a hazard?

hollow glacier Dec 10, 2025, 8:20 PM

#

yes

gilded scarab Dec 10, 2025, 8:22 PM

#

I think B46 is the same, it doesn't go away? How do we know which ones go away and which ones don't? I don't see any indication on the node itself that states this until you complete it and see if it went away or not.

hollow glacier Dec 10, 2025, 8:22 PM

#

it does

#

when it caused by base on the node

#

it goes away

#

or when it's caused from another node

#

or when it's caused by command ship

gilded scarab Dec 10, 2025, 8:23 PM

#

Okay, so if the node which causes the hazard has a command or base ship (the ones with health) then those hazards go away afterwards. If the node simply has a hazard on itself and no command/base ship, it's forever.

#

I guess that means for G6 the only node which has a forever hazard is B17

hollow glacier Dec 10, 2025, 8:24 PM

#

pretty much

#

no

#

4 nodes

gilded scarab Dec 10, 2025, 8:26 PM

#

I checked and found B26 and B42, but which is the other one?

hollow glacier Dec 10, 2025, 8:28 PM

#

oh

#

wait

#

g6

#

damn, I'm stupid
i thought we're in g5 channel

#

for g6 it's b17, b26 and b42, yes

#

it's just g5 has b17 as forever hazard too

gilded scarab Dec 10, 2025, 8:30 PM

#

I'm going to make a nicer spreadsheet, so I want to have some way for a person to indicate which hazards they got rid of and it auto filters setups based on that, but since those are forever hazards, beating the node is moot on whether or not the hazard goes away. The current spreadsheet is super helpful, but it has damage/health amounts you can't attain (like 2.10) and it has missing values and people replaced images improperly, etc.

#

hollow glacier Dec 10, 2025, 8:31 PM

#

Can't help with that, because I don't see hazards now

#

only constant ones

gilded scarab Dec 10, 2025, 8:32 PM

good point, my early ones are gone as well.

hollow glacier Dec 10, 2025, 8:32 PM

you can also ask dargonite for his october copy of the sheet

it should be same as it was before all the attempts to improve

which ended up in vandalization

but from what I know

Sylv wants to add auto-clears

also #wiki-stuff you can try to talk to stunthacks

about adding spreadsheet to the wiki

#

I think it would be the most beneficial

gilded scarab Dec 10, 2025, 8:34 PM

#

Yea, once I finish the coding side of it and it just needs data, I will share it with whoever wants to own it, help fill in whatever data I can, but I don't want to be owner of it. Just want a nicer spreadsheet experience.

#

so I'm using named functions, table data (instead of images), filter functions, etc.

how come some stats listed in the sheet are not multiples of 0.25? Every single Shipyard in G6 is 0.25 so I dont understand how you can get something like 2.525x. Changed in a patch perhaps?

that's kinda how it was

we had smaller upgrades costing less

now we have bigger upgrades costing more

squished quantity of different power levels

balmy current Dec 29, 2025, 1:49 PM

ahh, then old data shouldnt be TOO bad, but much less practical ofc. Then I understand your hesitance to re-do the sheet

hollow glacier Dec 29, 2025, 1:55 PM

It won't be hard to re do the sheet

#

but it will be long tedious process

#

people who started it clearly didn't finish

#

and I know, that I have big problems with finishing stuff, so I just try to keep as much info still on the sheet as possible

The advisors in this galaxy are weirdly all over the place

b46 cleared on run 28, was about 75 FR short of finishing on 27, so definitely possible with a better layout on the final fight

Galaxy 5 and earlier were generally pretty quick about replacing advisors but galaxy 6 often seems to just leave completely insanely inefficient ones alone after you beat them

that seems to be the case here

it doesn't seem like the backend is bugging out because i've tried using the API tool and it finds perfectly fine advisors

@austere adder here's one case, where it didn't change advisor on next clear seemingly

#

and @sullen frigate, I assume, can give more examples?

austere adder Jan 10, 2026, 7:07 PM

was that the advisor deploy that got a better score, or a different one you did

if its one in the background ill check directly to see if its going up or not

hi @austere adder, sorry to bother you again today, can you verify this?
starting here, G6 B8 at 2.0 stats; advisor says 15.88 FR is doable
I struggled to find it (haven't brute forced all the permutations yet, done about half)
I checked using the tool, tool says this is the arrangement
verification of advisor says its correct, but running it manually gives me 18.37 FR instead of 15.88 FR

#

adds more chaos to the already chaotic system, i guess

sullen frigate Jan 11, 2026, 6:07 AM

#

this galaxy is a lot more stat gated than overall scrap gated it seems

#

in g5 farming scrap and focusing R while only doing S when there was a very obvious incoming stat diff got me through a whole lot

#

in this one, scrap farming needs you to sacrifice a lot of R node levels for S nodes to get anywhere meaningful

#

this game refuses to distinguish F node and non-F node completions 🧍‍♂️
in advisor yes but in past clears no

#

#

cleared at 2.5 stats for 21.55, doesn't store it in previous completions

#

surely the limit isn't 2
but also, it was with different mods, so im not sure why it wouldn't

found a budget 340 resource setup for b46 that works at 3.5 stats for 5533.85 damage a run. can swap a1/b2 and replace a5 with a corvette for 320 and ~4700 (which i needed to use because i'm 5 short of a second 340 run)

hollow glacier Jan 11, 2026, 6:50 AM

#

I wouldn't call 3.5 "budget" since it's a 3-shot, but you can add it to spreadsheet

#

wait

#

or is it 2-shot?

fervent scroll Jan 11, 2026, 6:51 AM

#

budget because it's both low on run resources (others were like 500-600 for a 2-shot at 3.75) and doesn't need an extra stat node

hollow glacier Jan 11, 2026, 6:51 AM

#

"others were like 500-600 for a 2-shot at 3.75"

#

i'm sorry, where did you find that

per run, not total

hollow glacier Jan 11, 2026, 6:52 AM

we had 410 2-shot
For 410 per run

#

I mean, add yours, but spreadsheet has 410 per run

fervent scroll Jan 11, 2026, 6:54 AM

the 410 one is at 4+ stats and doesn't work at 3.5 stats

hollow glacier Jan 11, 2026, 7:00 AM

well, just to confirm

your 3.5 is 3-shot, right?

fervent scroll Jan 11, 2026, 7:00 AM

#

yeah

hollow glacier Jan 11, 2026, 7:00 AM

#

yeah, add it here, we're desperately lacking any 3.5 clears that are even close to being effective

#

that's mostly because at some point we established, that 2-shots are only possible at 3.6+

#

so it was easier to get another level in S node

#

and then squishing of different power numbers happened, and it was easier to recommend getting to 3.75

fervent scroll Jan 11, 2026, 7:10 AM

I pumped my entire run's scrap into S after R1-2 R2-3 R3-2 rather than pumping R again, to get 1.5, which I think is the right move. I also discovered it's not worth ignoring F2/F3 until 1.75, and I'm sadly short 30 scrap to hit B17 at the end of that run :/ that's what I get for running non-max sector. 99% sure that's the optimal path for S126, oh well

in the grand scheme of things you're really not losing out on too too much

#

for an idle game its really inconsequential, lol

pale sail Jan 13, 2026, 6:39 PM

#

that's the thing about looking at runs in a vacuum, I heavily disagree with the "optimal thing is to wait until max sector" well if you do that you have days and days of opportunity cost lost becuase you didn't get those early cap upgrades that are at the start of every galaxy

#

I mean yeah, none of this matters the difference between hyper optimal play and autobattles and overdeploy every sector is an extra day or two of fuel

I got tired of jumping around the excel sheet so I added a filter tab which searches for you which I'm finding much more useful. feel free to give it a try

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TZx4ND_tTfsjP46a_Vr6j4Jsb8lVZIYuE2sWgJksScM/edit?usp=sharing

unfortunately as it requires editing the document it means you have to create a personal copy of the sheet to use it (it's also not simple to drop it into other galaxies, as I had to change the data layout of the other tabs). also formatting is lost (bold/strikethrough/bg color). I return the bg using conditional formatting but it's probably not perfect.

ownership seems pretty casual, squall made/managed the one as far as I can tell, if you want to make that kind of change and are willing to take ownership of it I don't think anyone would mind, but that does mean taking ownership

#

being the steward for a while, more work as a reward for your hard work

#

I am actively adding/updating stuff in the sheet, and I've had it open for a few days and I can see there are 4-5 people typically in there at least viewing, so if we have two copies things will diverge pretty quickly. I say just notify people in here get the thumbs up from squall and do it. As long as no data is lost and more functionality? who isn't going to want that

#

and there's a pinned post, someone might redo it in the same fully text-based format as G5 has, but it's there

still cant express how much i hate this part of the game

still silo Jan 22, 2026, 3:33 PM

#

i hate the fact that you need 300 iq to figure out fights

#

so its better to just copy them from someone else

#

i tried and i couldnt

#

and it gets more and more complicated as you unlock more stuff

pale sail Jan 22, 2026, 6:30 PM

#

G6 is the peak annoyance with that, it took me actual days of playing to get through G6

sullen frigate Jan 22, 2026, 7:12 PM

#

g7 and g8 are much nicer in that they dont have as many runs where you change your battles

hollow hazel Jan 22, 2026, 7:21 PM

#

How many runs do you need to rush into the early galaxy and beat BB1 and and get that +1 shard link?

#

I imagine this part has been pretty optimized by now

sullen frigate Jan 22, 2026, 7:23 PM

#

3rd might be possible

#

1 for b6a, b6b and then bb1 each

hollow hazel Jan 22, 2026, 7:24 PM

#

Thanks, then I'll try that tomorrow when I have enough fuel for 3 trips.

still silo Jan 22, 2026, 7:36 PM

#

you need to unlock f1 f2 and f3 for it, thats a lot of fr, idk if you can fit that into 3 runs, maybe if you are at s126

hollow hazel Jan 22, 2026, 7:43 PM

#

Oh, so that's 1100 resources per run just to remove hazards?

#

Oof.

still silo Jan 22, 2026, 7:44 PM

#

no, unlocking an f node is 300 iirc (or 400?), then activating is 100

#

and they give you support, not remove hazard

#

as you get more fleet stats you can stop using them

#

.

hollow hazel Jan 22, 2026, 7:45 PM

#

Yeah, thanks, I've read the pinned message, but since I haven't played yet I don't understand what support means

#

it's a new term never before seen

still silo Jan 22, 2026, 7:45 PM

#

you have to unlock them once, then activate them for 100 if you want

#

you can hover over the ? to see what they do

#

hollow hazel Jan 22, 2026, 7:47 PM

#

Oh, so those are MY hazards

still silo Jan 22, 2026, 7:47 PM

#

yeah

hollow hazel Jan 22, 2026, 7:47 PM

#

that destroy my enemies, cool

#

and being a one-time unlock with smaller per-run purchase is significantly less oof than I thought.

still silo Jan 22, 2026, 7:48 PM

#

there are other things, not just laser volley, but the point is that they support you

#

im about to unlock universal datacores

#

so hyped

sullen frigate Jan 22, 2026, 7:59 PM

#

OH SHOOT
i was thinking about g5 😭

#

living up to my name 😎

#

ok well i cleared bb1 in 5 runs so theres that

#

erm

#

good luck

still silo Jan 22, 2026, 8:14 PM

#

was 7 for me but i was yoloing the first few runs, i should maybe stop doing that and just copy

pale sail Jan 22, 2026, 8:48 PM

#

bb1 was 6 runs for me

used to be worse with .1 increases in fleet damage/health instead of .25

#

pseudo osprey Jan 23, 2026, 7:48 AM

#

is there any written step by step guide of how to complete g6? im searching for one which treats me like i was an idiot

hollow glacier Jan 23, 2026, 7:50 AM

#

did you check pins?

#

there's battles guide

#

if it's not enough for you, then the core idea of g6 is go by numbers
b1-2-3-4 and so on

pseudo osprey Jan 23, 2026, 8:00 AM

#

hollow glacier there's battles guide

you mean the google docs?

hollow glacier Jan 23, 2026, 8:01 AM

#

yes

pseudo osprey Jan 23, 2026, 8:06 AM

#

ill try and read the whole doc then,ty

wooden atlas Jan 23, 2026, 11:01 AM

#

#

i'm trying so hard to make a 1.5x 160 FR two shot for this but i don't think it's possible

#

without HC

#

#

looks like this rn

hollow hazel Jan 23, 2026, 12:11 PM

#

I see main channels mention "base 6 renovate is important" where is that?

wooden atlas Jan 23, 2026, 12:13 PM

#

hollow hazel I see main channels mention "base 6 renovate is important" where is that?

g6 row 4 middle

hollow hazel Jan 23, 2026, 12:15 PM

#

Thanks!
I feel that's not what I need to reach S123-124

wooden atlas Jan 23, 2026, 12:16 PM

#

ofc not

still silo Jan 23, 2026, 1:30 PM

#

b33 is such a gigachad node

#

makes it so difficult to reach it

#

provides hazards for 5 freakin battles

#

plus you have to spend 200 on the artifact node

#

okay this is crazy, on a shotgun

#

god damn it there is also a support node

acoustic ember Jan 24, 2026, 4:40 AM

#

there seems to be a missing entry for an NS:2.25x B23 clear?

#

there's nothing about it further up and down the list 😭

hollow glacier Jan 24, 2026, 5:52 AM

#

you can change it if you want

still silo Jan 24, 2026, 12:16 PM

#

whats the optimal way to spend fleet scraps?

#

i have been yoloing it so far, maybe im messing up

#

there are so many s and r nodes

hollow glacier Jan 24, 2026, 8:23 PM

#

R nodes better than S nodes until you meet a wall in enemy stats
as usual

still silo Jan 25, 2026, 1:10 AM

#

but fleet stats will also save you fr, thats why im wondering

still silo Jan 25, 2026, 1:27 AM

#

im mostly grabbing r nodes then occasionally save up for an s when i feel like it

pale saddle Jan 25, 2026, 1:29 AM

#

once you start hitting battles where you need to over deploy a lot that is the time to do S nodes (other than boss nodes).

#

if you follow the spreadsheet it will be pretty obvious because there won't be any clears with your stats.

still silo Jan 25, 2026, 1:30 AM

right

#

so, dont spend on s nodes unless i feel like i need it

pale saddle Jan 25, 2026, 1:32 AM

#

basically.
I don't bother with s nodes until I can get them in 1-2 runs.

hollow glacier Jan 25, 2026, 10:35 AM

#

still silo but fleet stats will also save you fr, thats why im wondering

they won't
it may be better to use more FR to get more scrap to level other nodes more, so R nodes win most of the time

still silo Jan 26, 2026, 9:25 AM

oh man its gonna take longer to farm all the artifacts than finishing the galaxy

wooden atlas Jan 26, 2026, 9:26 AM

#

after i finish g6 i ain't spending ANY fuel before i renovate b6

wooden atlas Jan 26, 2026, 9:27 AM

#

still silo oh man its gonna take longer to farm all the artifacts than finishing the galaxy

how many runs did it take for you to finish it ?

still silo Jan 26, 2026, 9:37 AM

#

32 but i wasnt efficient

wooden atlas Jan 26, 2026, 9:37 AM

#

i see

#

let's see how many runs it takes to finish artifacts

still silo Jan 26, 2026, 9:41 AM

#

right now i can make almost 8k artifacts per run and i need ~180k

#

thats... a lot

wooden atlas Jan 26, 2026, 9:41 AM

#

what's ur b6 bonus at

still silo Jan 26, 2026, 9:41 AM

#

its gonna be more and more as i get more r and s nodes tho
