Thread: Merge Nymphs

My definition of 'instantly' is that you don't have to wait 24 hours for it to decay...you can get rid of it right away.

Among other things, that is something that should be changed.

The prize for a dimensional chest of top tier is several hundred rubies. And you get offered dimensional chests at increasing rate with higher lvl.

Currently I am farming ice cream and even with that low lvl, the top ice cream is like 50 rubies and I have literally (!) hundreds of those chests on the board. Basically for every 5merge that results in the top 3 ice creams, there is one, often two chests.

A button to cash/trash all dimensional chests would be nice. Or for puzzle areas an option to deactivate them. Or make them appear in a pull down menu.

Likewise the empty bubble for a chain merge. What is that good for? Anyone found out? I do not remember it being explained in the tutorial.

A mechanic tipp for merging. You can drop of items outside the playing field. They drop down on the nearest free square in a line from drop point, with decreased accuracy for corners. If you collect items near the edges that decreases accidental merges, bc such a dropped item does not cause a merge.

And there is a trick to put an item into a bubble. Make the field full, try to harvest and lift the item up and drop it, when field is full. Works better with multisquare items. This way I cleard all the event area from harvesting items, except ice cream, so the nymphs do not harvest crap while I do not pay attention.

Good tips everyone. I think if you have top teir trees or a high candle, you can risk just trashing most of the items. That way if you leave the keyboard you can just reorganize the items. We dont need fruit, underwear etc

Watch out for dead tiles with underwear on it. There are a few. What you do not need for idle farming, are item-producers. It helps to put them on opposite sides from your main factories and center screen there. Idle nymphs seem to mostly stick to the center of your screen. My guess would be visible area with max zoom out. At least they rarely use my low lvl ice cream makers. I have 1 with bars and 3 with sticks and 2 with cones.

And yeah, farming on a corner or edge is less frustrating. You flip the items over the edge and they order themselves on the board. No need for precision dropping #1 to #4 if you want a 5er.

And to add to my rant about dimensional chests on a puzzle board...

I just did a big merge. Maybe 200-400 ice cream sticks. Not very efficient, I know, but guess what. They seem to hinder mass merges! There were 6 unmerged ice left, because in each step they were created and then not all items could be pulled in.

yea after it merges it still considers its put into a tile before it continues (its fast but noticeable). Sometimes the ones on the outer edge just dont get pulled in enough to continue. For you, having so much space and items, its such a wide area

They're not going to allow us to disable or hide their ruby-consuming blackmail annoyance scheme. It's just not going to happen.

Come on, people...getting rid of a dimensional chest on the event board is just a matter of four clicks. It only becomes a big chore if you let them accumulate. I can't even fathom letting it get to where there are hundreds of them. They only show up when you're actively playing and combining, so just click them off as they show up.

Oh, I do think, they will change something about that. The game is not exactly in a state, the devs feel comfortable to put a 1 on the left side of the . of the version number. And they do have helper options already, like the 5 merger nymph option. I think the dimensional chests in the event area are an oversight. In the home area you get coins as a reward, so it does not stink as much to get rid of them.

And they are a big chore. I am struggling to farm the Event points. Every time one pops up, it breaks the flow and item placement. They do not even make good barrier building blocks, because they are so big and intercept clicks on the squares behind them.

To put out some numbers:

For the last event reward you need 100 000 points. That are 250 of the big ice cream desserts. Under theoretical conditions, I need 4000 ice bars and all merges of bars and up can produce dimensional chests at an estimated rate of 50%. I need about 1250 merge5s and every 5merge counts as two merges for producing dimensional chests. So for my 4000 ice bars I will have to remove over a 1000 of the dimensional chests. For one bar I need a harvest click and if I merge them where the nymph places them, I only need to move one bar, sooo removing the chests is just about as much clicking work, as producing the bars...

This is a grinding game, granted, but those chests are just ridiculous in the event area.

It's a contest of wills. They're betting you don't have the patience to remove them manually. And so far they're right. But their solution is for you to spend rubies, which means buying and spending Nutaku gold. If you want to be FTP, you have to put in the extra work.
