Thread: *Global Release* Taps of Eradine

From the spreadsheet that Kotono linked, it looks like each level of a nymph costs (1+sqrt(5))/2 (a.k.a., the golden ratio) times as much as the previous level. All of the costs displayed are pretty close to that and probably within rounding of it. It rounds or truncates the numbers that are displayed on the screen, so it's likely that the exact value is either computed as a base value times the golden ratio to whatever power, at least up to rounding.

Damage dealt per level of a nymph also looks like it scales at the same ratio. Thus, the total cost to level a nymph to 10 is about 197 times the cost of unlocking the nymph in the first place. The DPS (excluding super nymph skills) that the nymph will deal at level 10 is about 76 times what it will deal at level 1. That doesn't give you an easy way to predict super nymph skills, however.

For those who are wondering, the price in hearts of super nymph slots goes 1, 2, 5, 10, 25. I'm not sure about the last slot, as I can't see the price of the sixth until I buy the fifth. The online encyclopedia of integer sequences suggests 50 as the next number:

http://oeis.org/search?q=1%2C2%2C5%2...lish&go=Search

It finds six sequences that have 1,2,5,10,25, and four of them have 50 as their next value. The other next values suggested are 48 and 58, neither of which I regard as likely.

For comparison, the levels of fanny magnet start as 1,2,3--in particular, 3 hearts for the third level, not 5. That is not enough of a sequence to meaningfully consult the OEIS.
