I see, so only cursing when schedule is free and/or have drones to boost orders, while for the rest of the day/night, producing orundumb.

This would've been cool if the order type got determined at the timer finish instead of the timer beginning LappDumb

how many orundum do you have rn you choose to do AO

stoic spoke
#

96k LMD and 120 rocks for generating 1 pull

winged hollow
#

no like your current orundum

What's the most efficient base setup i can do

I dont have my base set up properly ngl

#

There's always best teams, just count %, and pick most highest of it.

#

If you cannot, in the bottom it shows solo big %.

Just set up whoever gives more.

is there a consensus benchmark for how productive one's base 'should' be at say, 1/2/3 months after creation? I know what the targets are but not how quickly I should be expecting to achieve them

stoic spoke
#

Base production rises slowly as you collect the specific team combo workers

#

Newbies are recommended to check out the good early game base workers in NOOB tab of link4 in pins

#

And /base and /baseskills in #bot-spam

I think this is the cleanest rotation I'm going to get with my current roster. shift length 6 hours but the 3rd and 4th of each day are identical so I dont have to disrupt sleep

# crystal sandal Hi everyone can anyone guide me through the best setup to farm originium shards ...

I don't think much has changed with Orundum farming (AO).

The AO materials, T2 rocks and devices, will always be your bottleneck. Running 1-7 for T2 rocks is the most efficient way to get AO materials at a cost of 4.82 sanity per T2 rock. (I think it's ~4.6 if you craft the T1 byproducts)

For the base, run 252 generally. Switch out your lowest productivity Factory to make shards and slot in E1 Chestnut and any two of the 35% AO operators (sorted by lowest investment: Eyja, Lava, Midnight, Earthspirit). Use your best non-Proviso/Tequila team for the TP to trade the shards in.

The only other AO Factory improvement would be to use the Abyssal Hunter (AH) team in place of the two 35%. (*And potentially Exodia for extreme AO farming.) For most bases, they're likely to be more productive in other factories.

For low end bases, Quartz becomes 36% in the TP.

Making shards in one factory and trading them in a TP is fairly balanced production-wise so I would drone them evenly if I need the AO ASAP but it's better to drone the LMD TPs because of Prov/Teq efficiency, the high demand for LMD in making the AO, and to balance out your likely 2 Gold Factory and 1 LMD TP setup.

Other advanced tips involve managing the shifts to maximize total productivity.
Consider swapping the AO factory to EXP or Gold when Chestnut is recovering for high-end bases.
Red likes to switch all his TPs to trading shards when busy/asleep to maximize his "cursed" orders for LMD.

(For extreme AO farming, basically skipping all events, consider 342 setups)

6 hr shift length is also higher effort than most people even within the riic community generally use so there's also that

you probably have to drone gold with it though

i also ran 342 with 3 gold 0 EXP, droning LMD for a few weeks but i didn’t save the report

#

must be 17 exp no run vivi/ft

if you want to go extreme, you could totally switch some fac to EXP when your main gold team is resting to still have some EXP gains

#

when i ran it i had more problems with managing my FAC workers though

#

had to use AHs and sometimes the 25%s

#

i always recommend people to convert orundum in batches if possible, it’s just more convenient to do it all in one go

summer kernel
# wild ice if you’re only doing AO for a short while then it’s alright to run 252, but long...

Yeah I gotta try 342 to see for myself. I've been testing a 252, 2.5 gold 1.5 EXP, mainly droning LMD recently and I'm making around 200 AO, 30k EXP, 65k LMD with a -15 net loss in bars.
If AO farming long term, that's too much exp but I don't see why that's not sustainable if I ran 3gold 1 EXP.

When you say that 342 overcomes the LMD bottleneck, are we talking about max AO farming like dumping all 240+80 sanity into 1-7 and needing to convert that daily + a rock stockpile? I feel like an income of 250AO, 50k LMD, 17EXP, net neutral gold can be achieved long-term on a 252

jaunty notch
#

After proviso, i generally advise against going 342, mostly due to the increased drone req to make it

#

in 252, you can just use a flex fac to make shard and the lv3 tp to trade them

#

in 342, not only you have to downgrade an entire lv3 fac, you have to build a lv3 tp as well to trade, compared to break and build 1 lv2

#

at that point, you're better off just go for 252 with 2 lv3 tps

summer kernel
#

I agree with the startup costs but I think phlegyas is talking about long term max AO farming where you need to make at least 40k LMD daily to break even on AO LMD costs if you convert all your regen sanity. Closer to 55k considering monthly pots and other sources. I think you have to run 342 at the point but it seems like such an edge case since I think if you have to skip most event shops at that* level of demand.

#

Lol. I still don't get why AO farming has to be done as an all or nothing process/in batches. Why can't we continuously produce and sell shards? Just build up a stockpile of rocks and shards and be net neutral longterm

silent nova
#

no that's the recommended strat

#

im just stupid rich

wild ice
silent nova
#

short bursts are more practical for chumps cuz they don't haev enough lmd prod to offset continuous orundum prod and allows them to farm event mats during events and rocks on downtime

summer kernel
#

I guess anyone active here doesn't have that constraint lol. Just build less... Or keep building so you have no one left to build and are forced to the 1-7 mines CliffXD

silent nova
#

apparently during labbing this out i build a stockpile of 4k rocks

frank cipher
summer kernel
#

Wait so succinctly: if I'm AO farming for anything under 200 AO daily long term (75% of daily regen sanity), running 252 is better since the LMD pressure isn't as critical, right?

jaunty notch
#

to be fair, i haven't done orundumb ever since proviso release and a bit before that

#

i just think it sucks overall

summer kernel
# frank cipher actually 50k lmd 30exp as you didn't need cut exp as gold surplus when farm ao ...

30k EXP long-term would be really bad for LMD to EXP ratios I think. But yeah, 3Gold 1 LMD would be a major gold surplus. I guess I see why it's balanced to 342, drone gold if you stick to AO farming long term but I personally would just build a stockpile of gold on that 252 surplus then run 342, and never stop droning LMD. It's probably a max net loss of 10k LMD per day.

40k for AO costs, ~20k for LMD:EXP ratio for 17k EXP, 50k income, so 10k daily net loss

frank cipher
#

almost 1:2 lmd/exp + 2.5k shard
could be 50k lmd 25exp idk

# frank cipher

Wait, that's a 70 AO daily avg. I'm pretty sure 252 would be better with the flex factories that Gato said.

1.5 LMD/exp ratio after AO costs assuming no device conversions and not counting Tequila contributions

stoic spoke
#

ReedBean why perma orundum when the rocc supply isn't sustainable enough

vernal palm
stoic spoke
#

Also, I have another question.
Say we have 2 TP teams, Team1 with the highest TP % and Team2 with the second highest %. Then for a given time period, is it better to run the highest TP % team on AO or on LMD (+Proviso curse)

silent nova
#

which is why it's not practical for most players

#

it might be an option for richie rich

silent nova
#

through power of intuition alone so maybe wrong

#

oh but maybe if you have sufficient lmd stockpile it might be better to run higher tp% on orundum

#

actually odn't believeme

#

write a spreadshseet

stoic spoke
#

That threshold being it produces enough LMD for sustaining making shards continuously

silent nova
#

that would be to figure out if your cycle is sustainable which is not super hard to do i htink what requqires more thinking is whats better

#

i can share my sheet containing these calcs and see if you acn reverse engineer it because i probably can't

#

hold on this fucks up my opsec

stoic spoke
silent nova
#

ohhhhhhhhhh google

stoic spoke
#

But our shouldn't our goal be to trade shards the fastest? There's already too much LMD (+ proviso curse magically increasing it by 25k/day)

#

So if the 2nd highest team can produce enough LMD to sustain making shards, I think I'm going to assign the fastest team to AO

silent nova
#

this is sorta what i'm thinking:
on some <X> day cycle you can farm O=240X / 6 * 1.2 whatever the drop rate is on 1-7 rocks, which gives O/2 shards to produce (and O/4 trades? i forgot all the numbers lol)

you then have two scenarios:

  • running highest tp% on AO trading trades all O/4 orders in Y amount of time, then the remaining X-Y days can be spent producing lmd. in exchange your lmd prod during this Y amount of time is much less
  • running second highest tp% on AO has a symmetric situation but Y' > Y so X-Y' < X-Y
#

i think it is highest tp on ao actually

#

assuming sufficient lmd stockpile for first cycle that you can trade everything during the Y days (and future cycls wil likely not have this constraint, hopefully, if the X cycle is lmd positive)

#

hold on/tenor writing fire

silent nova
#

this should be spreadsheeted up instead of kept in the brain im gonna flish this out right now

#

te one thing i haven't really answered is whether
running (1) yields second highest tp% * 10k * Y lmd and (2) yields highest tp% * 10k * Y' lmd and you'll have (1) < (2) probably proba

#

ughhhhhhhhhh

#

ughhhhhhhhhhh

#

ighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

#

who wants to inherit this

#

@ scholar you seem interested

stoic spoke
#

Or maybe we just do it practically by running in the baseArt

The LMD sustainability factor is a breakpoint which people have to meet in order to proceed with assigning the highest team to AO, or they'll just be lacking LMD which makes it worse.

#

good news: i just got waai fu from a recruit (and og exu too! MudLove )

#

bad news: where do i place her LappDumb

orchid bane
#

With Aroma ofc ?

#

Aroma is kinda not so good without waaifu

queen flicker
#

but its a lvl 3 fac with staggers. no staggers there then? also, waai fu skill doesnt work with purestream right? would have to move purestream to... fac 1 i guess?

#

i mean its not so clear where to optimally place her

torn meteor
#

you just need to stagger her to be with aroma vanilla then aroma purestream once vanilla dies

#

aroma will be charged then so itll be fine

#

then you do purestream vanilla steward 3rd rot

queen flicker
#

i think i got the solution. move purestream to fac 1 replacing spot. and in fac 2 do these rotation:
aroma - waai fu - spot
aroma - waai fu - vanilla
aroma - vanilla - spot
totter - waai fu - spot

torn meteor
#

i think that works

torn meteor
#

yeah that seems good

#

but once bryo enters the picture you should tweak things again

queen flicker
#

btw cant do a regular 4 operator stagger because aroma dies on the no waai fu shift (i think)

torn meteor
#

if you are doing 5op stagger cant you do like
aroma waaifu vanilla
aroma waaifu purestream
totter vanilla purestream

#

i think thatd be better if you are willing to do it

fluid pollen
#

Just morale things

stoic spoke
#

aroma - waai fu - spot
aroma - waai fu - vanilla
aroma - waai fu - spot

torn meteor
#

people use aroma waaifu in level 2 factories as 85 you can just purestream with them after aroma timer builds a bit

stoic spoke
#

I just placed them together

queen flicker
#

almost got the rotation by myself but yeah aroma and waaifu should be together i missed one shift

queen flicker
#

when bryo rerun comes then what FiaDed

stoic spoke
#

run him with metalworker skill workers

#

Bryo - Gravel - Spot - Haze

#

stagger rotate in lv3 FAC

queen flicker
#

i mean with these waaifu tweaks i move purestream to fac 1 and spot to fac 2. so bryo replace purestream and then... she back to fac 2 with waai fu?

stoic spoke
#

does waaifu function with purestream?

#

i don't rember

queen flicker
#

according to base guide, no

stoic spoke
#

she can after 10hrs (when aroma ramp has reached 40%)

#

aroma - waai fu - X
aroma - waai fu - Purestream
aroma - waai fu - Purestream
X - X - Purestream

#

X = any 25% +

#

take care to place aroma in the 1st spot in order to not fuck up her ramp during rotation

# silent nova @ scholar you seem interested

nah, i'm busy working on FAC% vs TP% stuff but my hunch is the same as your initial intuition: put the higher TP% with proviso, assuming youre not breaking up teams.

Just following along your work, i dont see the benefit in trading off the AO as fast as possible but having a higher base TP% for Proviso to multiply is more productivity.

if youre cursing, then it doesnt matter which TP you make LMD/AO to maximize production. It's probably even best to run both on LMD or AO at the same time so you minimize the amt of actual hours you need to curse.

I dont see it in the guide, but from what I gather this 'cursing' technique entails putting Proviso into a trading post only at the last moment before an order arrives so you benefit from her skills while still being able to use the slot for someone with an order speed buff, is that correct?

arctic prism
# wind otter I just think you should mention that, remember you're talking to a toddler

Generally you'd want to convert your base from 243 to 252 max right.
Factories innately give +100% production speed just by existing, which doesn't change based off the factory level. This means that just by the 5th factory existing, you're gaining an extra +100% factory production, for the cost of being able to use one less factory or tp worker (if maxed right) than 243.

Since you will be using all your best ops first in both base layouts, in order for 243 to be better than 252 max right, your 12th best factory worker needs to reach +100% factory production on their own, when most meta base ops average around +30~40%.

"But what about my dorm levels?" you might ask.
Even at lv 1, the dorms are able to fully restore an op from 0 to full in 12 hours, with no extra boosts. Maxed level dorms will restore an op from 0 to full in 6 hours. This allows you to have a slightly higher uptime on your best combos but, this advantage still doesn't even come close to making up the +100% factory prod that 252 gets, and only comes into play if you both rotate your base every 6 hours (or even more frequently than that).

Even from a 252 base, if you really want to micromanage and rotate more frequently, you are still able to rotate every 6 hours by making proper use of dorm operators, and rotating even more frequently than this has significant diminishing returns.

In order to convert your base from 243 to 252 max right, you need to:
downgrade all dorms to lv 1, can leave one at lv 2
if you own proviso:
downgrade one tp + 2 fac to lv 2
no proviso:
downgrade 3 fac to lv 2

delete one powerplant, build one lv 2 fac

im assuming that fifth factory will fix this?

and with the extra gold id just drone lmd?

wind otter
#

yeah, in 243 you usually need to drone gold to keep up. You switch to 252 and can have 3 gold fac vs 2 EXP and that should net you gold surplus, unless you drone Proviso which can strain your gold stash but then there is testimony of gaining gold surplus even when droning Proviso

So at E0 he's +10% at most
E2 he's 30% + up to 10% more

so id have to e2 bryophyta too for example?

#

so i could run thornster and gravel with him

arctic prism
#

For him he's 30% at e0, then gains that other skill at e2

#

So he's serviceable at e0 but only gains the combo at e2

thats kinda expensive combo then with him and thornster

Yea
But bryo can also be used with stuff like spot too so

Him himself isnt too bad

run her with trag and vermeil

Hey Cho, I was looking into the TP% vs FAC% stuff again and I was wondering why we don't have a real ratio between them in terms of maximizing base productivity as opposed to assuming 1:1 net gain. I know you have worked on this in the past so I was hoping you could share some of your insights.

#

Cho helpdesk

arctic prism
#

it's mainly because each player individually values different things and their end goals are different, which is what determines what your personal ideal lmd to xp ratio should be

fluid pollen
arctic prism
summer kernel
#

Yes but we should still be able to get a range of values. Like how we know there's an useful range of LMD to XP ratios depending on your goals and build

arctic prism
#

yea that's true
I was planning to do something like that at some point then forgot about it lol

#

I think though even if someone were to calculate it the results would be a pretty broad range so it wouldnt be all that helpful to give as actual advice

#

if i had to guess that's probably why no one really bothered to calc it?

summer kernel
#

I did follow that line of analysis and I essentially got the reverse ratio of Teq+Proviso's multiplier numbers. As in 1.8 TP% is worth 1 FAC% for lvl2 TP Prov users and 1.6:1 for lvl3 Teq/Prov users. Can you take a look at my work in a bit? It sorta is the reverse of your Dead Lancet conclusion: essentially Eu-Dead Lancet is a lot stronger than Amiya base bc TP% is inherently not 1:1 with FAC% in our current desired LMD:XP ratios and with the advent of Prov

arctic prism
#

sure

#

idk if you did this already but id also make sure to calc gold% separate from xp%

#

and also need to consider gold gained from external sources, which is part of why you dont need to make as much gold as you make lmd

summer kernel
#

Bc the MSV of a drone is constant

arctic prism
#

the way i see it is gold is worthless until converted to lmd via tp

#

vs xp which already has a value

summer kernel
#

Wait, that's a terrible assumption. If you follow that line, if gold has no value, what are our gold facs producing? They inherently have to have a nonzero positive value😜

arctic prism
#

no it just means that in order to produce lmd, it requires the combined production of gold factories and tps

#

and in that equation you also need to factor in external gold

wind otter
#

laughing in Pepe ||and broke||

fleet wolf
arctic prism
#

it's technically the more accurate way to evaluate base production, since otherwise you'd end up devaluating tp% since gold% already gives you something "of value"

#

where as in reality you cant do anything with excess gold

#

thats why i was saying figuring out the actual ratio is more effort than it's worth
formula has too many variables that get impacted by not only your end goals but also what kind of player you are

astral tiger
#

is it a good idea to downgrade proviso tp to lvl 1 or just spend drones on gold fac (I'm at net negative by drinking lvl 2 tp)

#

droning* not drinking

arctic prism
#

e.g. do you buy out green cert shop
friend point shop
dailies/weeklies, events, etc

#

do you farm 1-7, which also gives you gold

astral tiger
#

1-7 gives pure gold??

#

I don't farm that

summer kernel
#

The goal of an efficient base is to maximize the LMD and XP output at desired ratio depending on your goals. To do so, means that you should aim to maintain netzero gold after external income. The TP% becomes devalued because of mainly Proviso because it eats so much gold, that you have to value that percentage less to not accumulate gold.

arctic prism
astral tiger
#

hmm true

summer kernel
#

I think we are in agreement that net gold accumulation is a drag on efficiency, which is not the case for final products like LMD and XP. But that doesn't mean gold production is less valuable. in fact, the raw % is more valuable bc it's essentially comparative advantage, right?

arctic prism
#

oh yeah im not saying it has zero value, I'm just saying I consider it just a part of the lmd equation rather than innately assigning some material value to it

#

in saying this I mean that from a formula perspective we should evaluate surplus gold% beyond what your tp% can convert as having minimal value

summer kernel
#

Are you saying you don't agree that a gold bar has a pretty meaningful MSV? I think it's worth more than half of the resulting LMD MSV on Peter's sheet

arctic prism
#

whereas for xp% you can just straight up assign a value to it

#

that's not what I'm saying
I'm saying it's hard to assign it a fixed value because it depends on your base circumstances

#

assuming your base always has the same output and you're overproducing gold, that excess gold isnt valuable

#

until you change your base to use up that excess gold

pale yoke
#

i measure gold value in drone count, it's easier to get a picture of how much you produce instead of just measuring against CELS stages

#

all this is to say best just drone xp

arctic prism
#

but yea if we're attempting to calculate an optimal target tp% and xp% with a base rotation in order to match some lmd/xp ratio these are the types of considerations that need to be made, is all I'm saying

astral tiger
#

btw guys, if u do orundum farming, do you switch whole base setup to orundum farm or leave a tp and fac for normal prod too

#

basically hybrid setup or all in

summer kernel
#

The way I see it, there's three cases if we ignore XP and that ratio for a second and talk about long term rates.

  1. if we have too much accumulation of gold, any Gold% is worth trading for TP% so the TP% to FAC% ratio is inf.
  2. for too little gold, it's the opposite. Ratio is 0.
  3. the range that we care about, where you can balance your gold accumulation to net 0 via drones, and external income, and base setups (252, 342, etc). We can determine a numerical ratio.
    I think if you follow the line of thinking, to balance your gold made in FAC vs gold spent in TP, the TP:FAC boils down to the ratio of the times it takes to make an order on a per bar basis vs to make a bar in FAC
torn meteor
summer kernel
torn meteor
#

oop i missed those

arctic prism
#

yeah the only range we care about is when the average tp% of your rotation exactly matches some corresponding ratio of gold%
like im thinking of this in a vaccuum where in an ideal world the amount of gold you have has zero fluctuation when averaged out over an extended period
the point I was making is that gold% beyond this perfect gold% is completely worthless, thus making excess gold worthless, not that gold has no innate value

summer kernel
# pale yoke all this is to say best just drone xp

If you follow Peter's line of thinking, which is if you agree with his MSV/farming sheet, then droning any of the 3 has the same value if you do it to balance your LMD:XP ratio and make net zero gold.

That's kinda wild to me bc I always assumed that droning LMD was the best choice

oh no don't get me wrong, im not denying anyone opinion here i just have my own way of looking at the whole thing.
my logic which i've mentioned in the past is basically- proviso created a environment where we are allowed to pull lmd out of thin air if you're crazy enough to do it. so i view xp value more from that perspective. again, just to clarify i agree droning proviso on raw number alone is = bigger number
but i want more xp and im DocSmile

arctic prism
# summer kernel

this is working under the assumption that you already have reached tp/gold equilibrium and are using drones purely as a separate resource that gets converted into lmd/gold or xp no?

pale yoke
#

iirc doing curse a day is equivalent to the amount of drone you earned daily or close
so me doing curse is already equate to me full droning tp DocSmile

summer kernel
arctic prism
# summer kernel Also if you follow that line, why do you consider XP% vs Gold% to be different?

it's precisely because I'm following that line that I consider xp% and gold% to be different
gold% is a contributor toward lmd%, thereby increasing the lmd side of the lmd/xp ratio
xp% is counting toward the xp side of the lmd/xp ratio
if we're working under the assumption that you can convert 100% of the gold you produce, would you not evaluate gold% and xp% as separate entities, considering we have separate ops for each?'

following up on this, I was coming at it from the perspective of like a because the amount of xp% you need vs the amount of gold% you need is different, the value of additional% from each side has a different effect on the whole kind of thing?
in the sense that if you're converting 70k lmd/day, making 30k xp/day and 50k gold/day, any additional gold% you get is going to have differing effect on your ratio than an equal amount of additional xp% you get

summer kernel
# arctic prism it's precisely because I'm following that line that I consider xp% and gold% to ...

Simply, if you think drones have a set MSV for your TP setup and all products droned are equally efficient, then the two FAC% have to be equal right

Below is a tangent that may clarify my thought process before I considered the core argument.


I see two independent ratios:

  1. LMD:EXP which is defined by your goals (build everyone, build few to the max, AO farming, etc)

  2. LMD:Gold, which im starting believe is fixed based on Teq/Prov since your objective is to max LMD and reach net-zero gold.

Once you define your LMD:EXP ratio, you should be able to determine your theoretical max LMD, EXP, Gold. Obviously its hard bc we get event rewards, variance, imperfect world, etc but ideally this is true based on your ops

summer kernel
arctic prism
#
  1. LMD:Gold, which im starting believe is fixed based on Teq/Prov since your objective is to max LMD and reach net-zero gold.
    I agree with the statement that this ratio is fixed depending on teq/prov, which is why I was saying what I'm saying
#

if lmd:gold ratio is fixed, and lmd:xp ratio is variable, gold% cant equal xp% right?

#

I might be coming at this with some other assumption that I havent formulated into a coherent thought yet too though

silent nova
arctic prism
#

I think the main point of disagreement may be here

all products droned are equally efficient
because that's not how I see it
i'm considering the value of a drone in an xp fac if you're overproducing lmd as higher than the value of the same drone in a gold fac or tp

summer kernel
summer kernel
arctic prism
#

if you do manage to hit lmd:xp equilibrium (post droning), the most effective way to use drones will be drones used toward reaching that equilibrium

#

in that sense, the value of drones are not fixed

#

the way I see it is like
you have three meters
tp meter, gold meter, xp meter
drones can be used as filler to increase any of those meters
most efficient base usage will attempt to hit a specific ratio between each of those three individual meters, so after your facs and tps create whatever they do create, drones are there to help you get closer to the ideal ratio

stoic spoke
summer kernel
arctic prism
#

e.g. if ideal ratio is 100% 100% 100% for the three meters
if you have 100% tp and gold after your workers but your xp meter is at 50%, drones are going to be most valuable when contributing to the xp meter
if we're saying that drones have equal value regardless of what they create, we're saying that it doesn't matter how you use those drones, since they have a fixed value anyways

summer kernel
arctic prism
#

you just drone accordingly to make more following the LMD:XP ratio
yes
I think easiest way to show this is if you start with a desired lmd:xp ratio
lets say you want 1.4:1
this means that the value of 1400 lmd = 1000 xp, correct?
in order to create 1400 lmd from scratch with drones, the number of drones you need to use on gold vs the number of drones you need to use on xp is going to be different, along with the number needed to be used on the tp

#

hence, the value of 1 drone's contribution toward skewing the ratio varies depending on what it's used on

summer kernel
arctic prism
#

another way to put it is the effect a single drone has on the lmd:gold:xp ratio is different depending on what facility you use the drone on

#

and what determines all of that is the target lmd:xp ratio

stoic spoke
summer kernel
# arctic prism > you just drone accordingly to make more following the LMD:XP ratio yes I thin...

the number of drones you need to use on gold vs the number of drones you need to use on xp is going to be different, along with the number needed to be used on the tp

the value of 1 drone's contribution toward skewing the ratio varies depending on what it's used on

Why are these two conflicting? If the MSV of the items are in the same ratio as the drone cost ratio, then the value of 1 drone is the same everywhere.

I think that is literally Peter's line of analysis:

MSV of LMD from CE-6.

MSV of Gold Bars from drones needed to make 500LMD in base.

MSV of XP from the 60:24 drone ratio of XP to Bar

arctic prism
#

no just consider it literally
since 1400 lmd is a little annoying to picture, we can do 14000 lmd
using a lv2 proviso tp, we can literally calculate the number of drones we will need to use in order to convert 14000 lmd right?
and we can compute (using the fixed lmd:gold ratio we mentioned before) how much gold we need to generate in order to convert that amount of lmd
and you can compute the number of drones we will need to generate 10000 xp in a factory

arctic prism
#

if the value of a drone is fixed and 1 gold drone = 1 xp drone, and the number of drones you need to generate that amount of gold vs the number you need to generate that amount of xp needs to equal the target lmd to xp ratio, or in this example, 1.4:1

So assuming we arrive at a golden LMD:EXP ratio after these derivations:

  1. is it going to be useful in the sense that people will try to make their base rotation combos with that ratio in mind?
  2. Because that would mean their focus shifts towards minimising their distance from the ratio, instead of using their roster's best teams which may be higher in productivity value but way off the golden ratio.
  3. If that's the case, does the ratio holds value only for people with full collection who can run the most optimal teams?

it's subjective for everyone

#

so what is the motive for calculating it's optimal value

stoic spoke
#

isn't efficient base the one where we put our best teams at work to maximise absolute production, not relative to the ratio.

#

for example, 4 gold for pozy tuye +cursing gives a large boost to the gold as well as LMD, hence the total productivity is greater than 4 gold 2 exp.

#

But it skews towards LMD(+gold) and takes a hit on the EXP

should that be called suboptimal when considering the golden ratio?

  1. TP%:FAC% answers how much you should trade TP% for FAC%. An example is the case of Dead Lancet discussions
  2. the distance to the ratio is irrelevant bc the point is that the first thing you have to is get to the LMD:EXP ratio. We're talking about droning and making base swaps to maximize LMD and EXP after we've reached the ratio.
    3)the TP%:FAC% doesnt depend on the roster you have besides if you have Teq/Prov and if youre Max Right.
stoic spoke
#

okay. point 3 makes it clear SkadiDaijoubu

summer kernel
arctic prism
#

lets say your base made you 1400lmd and 1000 exp (somehow after everything) except for drones

to make 1000 exp, you need 60 drones
and you need 24 to make 500 lmd worth of gold
in order to reach 1400 lmd worth of gold you would need 67.2 drones
in lv2 proviso tp, to convert 1400 lmd, you need 36.145 drones
in order to maintain the 1.4:1 ratio, you would need to distribute your drones in this specific ratio

#

from this we can say that the impact of 1 drone is different depending on what you use it on, right?

#

now consider someone who values exp a lot and wants a 1:1 ratio between lmd and xp
now the equation becomes
1000 xp = 60 drones
2 gold (1000 lmd) = 48 drones
1000 lmd = 25.81 drones
the ratio of required drone usage is completely different

#

only ratio that stays consistent is the lmd:gold ratio which is more or less how we get the proviso multiplier

summer kernel
arctic prism
#

im not sure I understand the fixation on MSV in this case

#

the end goal is to reach a target lmd:xp equilibrium

#

by which we are literally saying, if we make exactly this ratio forever until the end of time, we will have perfectly used up all our lmd and xp equally when you finish maxing out all the operators to the level that you desired

#

any excess on either side cant be used

#

the msv of lmd that you cant use is 0

stoic spoke

Here, we are basing the value of LMD, GOLD and EXP on the drones. Shouldn't another contributing factor be the availability of % skill productivity distribution that we have for TP and FAC operators (which is highly skewed)?

  • TP can reach 200%+ raw TP & proviso to amplify it further
  • On the other hand Gold FAC teams only do +120-130% at max

so in a way isn't GOLD FAC's Productivity % more valuable due to less availability or something?
which would bring us back to taking the LMD:EXP,GOLD produced as a factor too for calculating "Should I trade 5%TP for 7%EXP"

summer kernel
arctic prism
summer kernel
#

Lets reclarify bc im kinda getting lost.

  1. I think theres a TP%:FAC% ratio number that we can use to see if its worthwhile to trade TP% for FAC% bc that has been assumed to be 1:1 for a while.

  2. I think that TP%:FAC% number is only dependent on your TPlvl/Proviso/Teq setup.

  3. I think that FAC% = XP% = Gold% for the purposes of maximizing production assuming you can stay within the confines of the LMD:XP ratio.

  4. I think we agree on 1 and 2 but not 3. You think that it is only TP% : Gold%

#

is the above where we are at?

arctic prism
#

yea pretty much, except I would revise 2 to say tp%:gold% rather than fac% due to disagreeing on 3

arctic prism
#

like we agree that the xp% you need vs gold% you need in order to hit a target ratio is different right
but like we were saying earlier, the amount of fac% and gold% each drone can make up while attempting to reach equilibrium is different (since we need to allocate drones in a different ratio depending on desired lmd:xp ratio)

ok. can we lock in that value? I think thats the real breakthrough today bc it finally means we can go back to your sheet and see that Eu-Dead Lancet is actually real strong and make further TP% vs Gold% tradeoff evaluations without being nebulous about it!

I think the TP%:Gold% is 1.027, 1.592, 1.859 for std lvl3, lvl3 Teq+Prov, and lvl2 Prov TPs.

Basically, for a std lvl3TP if you can get more than 1.027% TP for 1%Gold, it is worth doing.

(as long as you can zero out your gold and meet your LMD:EXP ratio by either droning or changing your base setup)

#

I'm witnessing history(breakthrough) in the making

arctic prism

but yea in the example I wanted to bring up,
lets say in a theoretical setting you have a fixed tp%, and all you need to do with your base is to put in xp and gold workers to meet the ratio
but you also (somehow) have a supply of drones that is able to fill one of those two needs entirely (whichever needs a smaller number of drones)
you would pump all of those drones into one of either xp or gold, depending on which metric is easier for the drones to satisfy completely, correct?

here's what im thinking of in your hypothetical,

  1. I think that XP% = Gold% and value of a drone in either factory is the same so I'd fill up your Facs with the max Gold/XP% to maximize productivity

  2. id see if im lacking XP or LMD from TP to satisfy my LMD:XP ratio.

2a) if im lacking LMD, id drone Gold and TP and if that doesnt work, id have to trade off my XP% for Gold% or TP%, depending on which one is best based on the 1.027, 1.6, or 1.8 ratio we just talked about. This will lower our raw productivity numbers but be better overall bc we are in the regime where any XP% is worth trading for TP% and Gold%.

2b) if im lacking XP, I'd drone XP and see if that works out. I'd have to drone Gold too if necessary to feed my TPs but if that doesnt satisfy my LMD:EXP ratio and/or reach net zero gold, i'd have to trade off my TP% since we are in the regime where any TP% is worth trading for FAC%s. I think XP% and Gold% are clearly 1:1 in this case.

  1. you may have to consider reducing your effective TP% to maximize total base output while adhering to the desired LMD:EXP ratio. This may come

is this amount of lmd production good enough for 252 or can it be higher?

arctic prism

but depending on your level of progression the lmd numbers look fine

#

for every 1 drone on tp3 you require 1.0265 drones on gold to keep up added input from tp3 drone

#

and in general ou need 102.65% gold prod for every 100% tp3{no teq, no prov, no tailoring} prod to maintain stable gold****

arctic prism
silent nova
#

i don't really know what scholarmeans by trading 102.65% gold for more than 100% tp3

arctic prism
#

yea thats the part im confused on too

#

i assume it's something like making up the excess tp% by droning gold or something but

arctic prism
#

im also like very confused at what my own stance is at this point bc stuff was making sense in my head for a while until it didnt and now im doubting myself

NUMBER

GOOD

pale yoke
#

nice, i agree with that statement

silent nova
#

the real answer here right

#

is that lmd and xp have 0 value because their demands will be fulfilled earlier than material demands

arctic prism
#

this is

#

true

silent nova
#

i ran luzark planner on my numbers like a couple years ago and that was the result for me lol

#

and my rotations aren't even that great

arctic prism
#

i checked in krooster by manually inputting every single op at max everything as a "goal" in the planner
then also checked how much of everything I used by setting my current acc as a goal from another krooster acc that had nothing
can confirm im miles away from hitting material demands but in comparison quite close to satisfying xp/lmd demands

silent nova
#

wow

arctic prism
#

like I could see the end of the tunnel for xp/lmd but nowhere near for mats

silent nova
#

since when did i have 30m exp

stoic spoke
#

did you do that for every op?

arctic prism
#

ye

stoic spoke
#

wtf

arctic prism
fluid pollen
#

Simply biased

silent nova
#

wow

stoic spoke
#

my solution was to export the json and apply parsing

arctic prism
#

that would have been smart

#

exporting goals to json + modifying then reimporting

#

unfortunately i was dum

silent nova

jayson

arctic prism

and manually entered all of it

#

website uber lags for me whenever i open planner

fluid pollen
#

How long did it take

stoic spoke
#

oh yeah that too. I just made a separate notebook

arctic prism
#

like a couple hours or something idk

silent nova
#

i think there was a point in time where planner state was url encoded

stoic spoke
#

lememe share

arctic prism
#

was while i was slacking off at work so

silent nova
#

maybe travel back in time and just generate that url

fluid pollen
#

Wayback machine surely

arctic prism
#

but yea slightly less accurate now bc slightly outdated compared to when I entered the data but this is the result

fluid pollen
#

100m exp and 200m lmd is not close

arctic prism

yea but compared to the mats it is

#

WhenLifeGetsAtGabriel been running out of mats recently

arctic prism

oh i found the one from empty acc
this is why I was saying xp lmd kinda close in comparison

#

like there's a significant dent made in xp/lmd progression but for mats it's like

#

no difference RedOmegaLul

silent nova
#

phhh that's why krooster says i have 30m exp

i don't

it's lying

hmmmmmmmm maybe there are then

well no its not

mostly cuz of mods

i don't think there's bee eonugh time for 2k mod blocks

actually idk

why u do this lmao

Maybe mods not maxed but m9 maxed level is believable.

silent nova

oh but there also are the insta m3 tickets and stuff too

fluid pollen

Right.

arctic prism

yea i guess mod blocks are the restriction

silent nova

so having everything non time gated maxxed is believable for richie rich

you can view the base combos sheet for a reference

200% trust is only like what

how many points is it again

like 180k

fluid pollen

Is it 185 op for $100?

arctic prism

smth like that ye

meager meadow

i feel like if you come from a hoyo game, maxing everything in arknights is a walk in the park

fluid pollen

Well it’ll last you 10 days.

silent nova
#

oh wh did i think 180k

#

its 25570 trust points

arctic prism
#

idk tho like maxing maxing everything sounds like a lot of effort too no? considering training room time and farming time and whatever else

silent nova
#

oh that's a lot easier than i thought

#

only like

meager meadow

yeah but with how costly dupes and cones are in a hoyo game

arknights is barely any effort

feel like tho for the most part it's the effort part that I'd be doubtful of bc it's like
sure you can pay your way to max everything in hoyo but it's less paying and more playing to max in ak (from what I understand)

fluid pollen
#

It’s just automating farming no?

#

With op

meager meadow

yh

fluid pollen

that's a minor bump though

silent nova

yeah

arctic prism
#

figured yea i remember seeing that thing from ages ago too

silent nova
#

peter has his own version thats up to date ............. i think ............ i also don't think he relased it though

arctic prism
#

was shocking when i saw it for the first time in like a holy shit someone made this kind of way

silent nova
#

i'm personally a hater of msvs

arctic prism
#

lol why

fluid pollen
#

Wonder how long it took

silent nova
#

the notion of minimizing time to meet demands is all good and all

#

but then computing the dual for msvs is like

#

now you're maximizing demand * msvs sum over materials constrained by sum prob * msvs <= sanity cost of stage

#

which is like

#

i guess that works

#

but if you present that set of equations to someone it's nonsense

arctic prism
#

lol yea that's true
i do like the theory behind it though

fluid pollen
#

Do you read help?

silent nova
#

there's maybe like 5 people in help who can understand the primary lp much less the dual

#

the dual lp is like what

stoic spoke
silent nova
#

solving for the maximum minimum time given constraints ❓ alright

#

i don't really know how to reconcile that with msvs

fluid pollen
silent nova
#

maybe i'm just not lp pilled enough

arctic prism
fluid pollen
#

Bro speed ran the 5 stages of grief

silent nova
#

no i still have gripes about it on a technical level

#

not with the lp and dual lp itself

#

but with people flinging around msvs

#

but also i guess that's the only way you can communicate the notion of value to en

fluid pollen
#

But you also can’t present the sheet itself to en.

silent nova
#

you know how like

#

pop science articles sensationalize certain things and then you read the paper behind it and its like wow ok this isn't really what they were talking about

arctic prism
#

yea

silent nova
#

msvs is that for en players

#

because en players looooooooooooooove to see a stage with > 1.0 eff

#

news flash that doesn't exist we only have > 1.0 eff stages because we're too lazy to rerun the lp solver

fluid pollen
#

Well people just kinda only read headlines nowadays.

arctic prism
#

oh yea fs that def was a huge thing like way back especially

#

in like the first few years of ak

#

1.0 eff stages all over the place lol

#

think that one was caused by some other factor but still same principle i think

silent nova
#

i mean its still present we still present stages as "their efficiency is this" without recomputing the lp it's just not as obvious right now becuase all the recent event stages has sucked ass for some reason???? why are all the stages in leizi event < 0.95??? andl ast event too??

stoic spoke
#

ElysiumBanner eol soon

arctic prism
#

o I thought whoever was posting those recomputed the numbers each time

silent nova
#

no

arctic prism
#

dam

fluid pollen
silent nova
#

the thing with recomputing it each time is that say for example that some event stage is now most efficient so it's 1.0

#

how do you show that

arctic prism
#

1.0 eff lol

silent nova
#

cuz if you devalue the corresponding story stage people will never farm that again because htey will misinterpret it

arctic prism
#

thats tru

silent nova
#

and not realize that the devalued state of that story stage is contingent on the event running

fluid pollen
#

Does it compare against the best story stage?

silent nova
#

yeah it currently does

#

but its always 1.0

#

this is how it's being presented righ tnow

#

and if an event stage is more efficient it gets shown as like > 1.0 and story is still 1.0

#

objectively correct way is to show event stage as 1.0 and story as < 1.0 but that's en-incompatible

arctic prism
#

is it computing permanently accessible stages completely separately from event ones?

#

then applying same msvs to event stages

silent nova
#

yeah

fluid pollen
arctic prism
#

I see but you're saying because the event stages should have an impact over the actual msvs it's not actually accurate to use it in this way

silent nova
#

i actually don't know how often the msvs get updated

#

yeah

arctic prism
#

that makes sense

silent nova
#

this has been going on since the start of the server lpol

#

ike a known issue for ages

#

it's never gonna change

arctic prism
#

lol

fluid pollen
arctic prism
#

i guess it's just meant to be taken as a point of reference more than a literal this is the value of xyz thing, just is easier for people to understand it when you dumb it down and say this equals this type of thing

silent nova
#

yeah

#

it's a matter of sacrificing technica correctness for communication

#

cuz expecting people to know of lp is maybe a bit too much

#

like normalizing to tp3 instead of tp1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

arctic prism
#

lol i mean for majority of people it shouldnt make too big of a difference either way, since most people just want to be told "hey do this because of x reason"

#

is more convenient i guess

#

like in the end it wont make a significant impact because hardly anyone is actually going to even get close to satisfying all of their mat demands

#

which is more or less the scenario that the technical correctness would help in achieving
