User:MetalMario32

Hello! My name is MetalMario32. You may see me referred to as Milla sometimes. My primary role in the server besides grinding is helping new players progress and doing some of the math and optimization that goes into flying through the ranks.

My notable works relating to the server include:

• My trusty empowerment guide, found below. Tuur420 helped format the guide into a format suitable for the wiki.
• A spreadsheet to calculate how many blocks you need to mine to go up a champ, dependent on some factors. This is found here.

Empowerment Guide

It is important to note that all fortune levels listed in the tables assume that you have no donator rank. If you skip some empowerments due to having a high enough donator rank, you can get some empowerments earlier.

Before Champion 1

Get every empowerment in order. Empowerments that you cannot get because of having a donator rank can be skipped.

No.	Fortune Level	Name	Description	Reason
1	50	Extra Rare Crate Mining	Adds +1 Additional Rare Crate to Rare Crates Mined that are OG or higher (Not eligible for doubling)	Makes grinding for better pickaxes easier which allows you to gain more Fortune and Empowerment Points.
2	250	Infinite Mine Booster Time	Grants infinite Mine Booster Time	Grants a +50% sell bonus to all mines you mine in, which makes getting to Master 1 faster.
3	500	Extra Artifact	Provides 50% chance for an additional Artifact when found (Not eligible for doubling)	Artifacts are useful at all points in the game. Get this early.
4	1K	Infinite Bait	Provides infinite Bait time	This empowerment makes fishing talents easier to get.
5	2.5K	Infinite Fish Attractant	Provides infinite Fish Attractant time	Same logic as Infinite Bait.
6	5K	Extra Rare Key Fishing	Adds +1 Additional Rare Key to Rare Keys Fishing that are Master Key or Higher (Not eligible for doubling)	This provides more rare keys, increasing your token gain.
7	10K	Lure	Provides a 5% timer reduction to catch fish	Grants a small boost to the speed of catching fish.
8	20K	Increase Fortune	Add +1 to the amount of fortune gained from Leveler / DoubleLevel / TripleLevel / QuadLevel	You'll have a TD pick by this point which means you're ready to start building Fortune through Leveler.

Champion 1 through Knight 1

Here, you'll be fishing until you can afford Spiral 108 and Abundance 500. After you're done with this, use your free Depowerment Cookie from ArtifactDave and re-select the following empowerments:

No.	Fortune Level	Name
1	50	Extra Rare Crate Mining
2	250	Infinite Mine Booster Time
3	500	Extra Artifact
4	1K	Increase Fortune

Then, select the following:

No.	Fortune Level	Name	Description	Reason
5	2.5K	Champion Frenzy	Champion Frenzy provides Quad Keys, Crates and Money instead of double	Increases the bonus to money and crates during Champion Frenzy to 4x, which is a very large boost in progression.
6	5K	Personal Champion Frenzy	Allows you to start Champion Frenzy whenever you want (twice a day)	This ensures that you never miss a Champion Frenzy. Extremely important to progression, along with Champion Frenzy.
7	10K	Double Personal Booster Effect	Doubles Personal Booster bonus given from Personal Boosters on use	Increases the bonus to money by using a Personal Booster to 4x, which stacks with Champion Frenzy to give you a huge amount of money.
8	20K	Double Personal Booster Time	Doubles Personal Booster time given from Personal Boosters on use	Allows you to conserve Personal Boosters and helps in times of shortage.

From this point, there are three different paths you can take, depending on what you wish to progress. Which path is better heavily depends on your play style. If you choose to switch paths at any point, simply stock up on 25 Artifact Dust for a Cookie.

Crates and Pickaxe Growth:

No.	Fortune Level	Name	Description	Reason
9	40K	Double NorthKeep Outpost Bonus	Increases NorthKeep bonus to 20%	Every crate that you mine will now have a 20% chance of being doubled instead of 10%.
10	70K	Double SouthKeep Outpost Bonus	Increases SouthKeep bonus to 20%	Every crate that you open will now have a 20% chance to double the tokens you receive from it instead of 10%.

Remember that you can rent outposts with Gems using /g o!

Fishing Talents:

No.	Fortune Level	Name	Description	Reason
9	40K	Fishing Frenzy	Fishing Frenzy provides Quad Keys, Crates and Fish Caught instead of double	Increase the bonus to fish caught during Fishing Frenzy to 4x. Very useful for getting a large amount of fish quickly.
10	70K	Personal Fishing Frenzy	Allows you to start Fishing Frenzy whenever you want (twice a day)	Same logic as Personal Fishing Frenzy.

You don't have to fish consistently, just during your (Personal) Fishing Frenzy. This will still get you lots of fish caught.

Godkit Sacrifice: (improving PurpleUrkle/SFVOG bonus)

No.	Fortune Level	Name	Description	Reason
9	40K	Double Poseidon's Lair Points	Doubles Points Earned from Poseidon's Lair	Poseidon's Lair is easily the fastest way to get DragonEggs. This empowerment makes that process even faster.
10	70K	DragonEgg Tom	Reduces Dank Dust needed by 1 to exchange for DragonEgg	Makes it easier to exchange for the specific DragonEgg you want.

There are legends of a texture pack that helps with Poseidon's Lair. Ask around and you may just find it.

These next four empowerments are the last essential ones to get. You can easily get to Knight after achieving 400K Fortune and finishing the empowerment list. If you happen to obtain more empowerment points, go back to the 40-70K paths and get the empowerments for the paths you did not choose.

No.	Fortune Level	Name	Description	Reason
11	100K	Personal Frenzy	Your Frenzy procs now add to both your personal timer and the global timer	Ensures that you never run out of Frenzy, especially during your Personal Champion Frenzy. You still need to mine to make this useful.
12	200K	Double Momentum Bonus	Momentum now provides a 0.2% bonus to money and tokens per level instead of 0.1%	Provides a hefty bonus to token gain from mining that scales with your Momentum level.
13	300K	Extra Momentum	Provides 50% chance for an additional +1 Momentum when found (Not eligible for doubling)	Complements Double Momentum Bonus by letting you get more Momentum levels every time you mine the enchant.
14	400K	Unlock 1x Armor Set	Unlock usage of sets, ability to store 1 set	Allows you to get the benefit of a Godkit while wearing event armor on your person to survive longer in the Nether Mine.

Knight 1 and Beyond

At this point, you have flexibility in your empowerments. I'm not going to list an order for which ones you should get because it heavily depends on your play style. Make sure to get all of the empowerments above before considering any empowerments below this point.

Empowerment List for Knights: (I'll write this list up later. The guide in its current state is meant for players under K1.)
