Hi, I'm Zieg. I'm the type of person who analyzes everything. Clix was intended to make it so that people would not just use an auto clicker. With clix came the 10% increase in idle damage. This means that someone with an auto clicker will not be able to over the course of a day output more damage with the auto clicker vs someone who is logged in all day. What I discovered is that if someone set an auto clicker to instead of using normal clicks for each clix that they gain, they used splat, they would actually do about 10x more damage throughout the day compared to the idle bonus damage. If you want people to not gain huge advantages by simply cheating at the game, you need balances. By delaying the onset of the idle bonus (which by the way will have upgrades if you read his update "starting at 120") splat no longer gains this enormous bonus. A normal player who is logged in idling for most of the time, but still occasionally clicks (regular click or abilities) will have the advantage over someone who uses auto clickers.
Rays actual balance changes will be coming. The previous update was a stability update with a small fix to prevent people from just macroing their way through the game. For now, find a partner, party up. Put 1 or two levels into party bonus. If you do the math, that will do a LOT more for you than 4 levels of auto attack damage.
Well thanks, I guess that makes sense if you did the math behind it.
As far as your other suggestion, I've been dc'ing randomly. Which as I've said before means that if I do dc from my buddy, trying to find a random party is hard. If I took your suggestion and put prestige points into party bonus, the times I have to play alone I'd be screwed. Which would slow me down even more so. Wish I could de-scend lol, that would solve all my problems. Anyways, thanks for clearing up the clix changes for me, appreciate that.
lol Surprised the clix system isn't only available for challenges and new unbeaten zones as yet. It's impossible to have an advantage over an autoclicker, since autoclickers can be pre-set with different times and points on the screen. There's nothing that a playing player can do to have an advantage over an autoclicker. Good to see though, that the gap is closing.
If further changes are made from your suggestions. You should make a thread about it and explain it to the community. It goes a long way.
