I appreciate the tips. Currently, I am focusing on the sentry (l13), scanner (l9), libraries (2x l7), shurikens (l6), blasters (l4) and protectors (l4). At level 15 a blaster is just four levels behind a ram. Nice to know when I'm done.TheLurkingRage wrote:Wow, sounds like you're on a good path! I recommend you always keep your Sentry, Scanner and at least 2 Code Gates maxed out according to your core level and that you ignore all other nodes until you max them out.
I've noticed the potential of the Shocker though. However, currently I rely on the protector for choke points.Last night I had the first successful hack against my network, while my sentry was upgrading. The attacker used the Kraken program. At level 22, there was only $ 7k and B 1k to get, but only got $ 825 and B 26. I've moved my core to the middle, because of this.
Do you have any tips on how to use the search function? At level 22, I think I can get consistently $ 100k and/or B 2k targets, but it takes a while to get $ 3M. I estimate that the average compilation time is 15 min (2 threads, going for the 3rd when I can). Should I search more and settle less?
