I wanted to ask about efficient training.

I heard that you want to happy jump up until 400k each stat, the limit being 800k if you are in a 10* AN. I am not really at this stage yet because I can't afford it. I would probably use a more budget friendly approach.

The one I know is choco jumping where you stack up xanax and just eat candy. My question is if all we're spending on is the chocolate and xanax, how is the natural e not too big a loss on gains when you are waiting for your drug cd.

The main thing I am asking is how should I train as a newbie. I did one tiny jump in the beginning to get enough stats to beat leveling targets but now that I'm 15 I just go fly somewhere for 4 hours then come back and train. So should I try and be stacking all the time for little choco jump gains, just training normal regen with no jumps, or only saving up for the big boy edvd jumps. Or just selling losses? I kinda want to get the killstreak merits too though. Right now I'm aiming at spending all my money on trains anyways.

Cheers guys

The main reason the natural e is not a big loss is because by choco jumping you are gaining more stats than you would have by just taking your xanax and natural e

ie the gain of a full stack + jump is greater than the gain from nat e + xanax. This is also why there is a cap on happy jumping, because eventually training your natural e and xanax is more worth it than losing out on it to happy jump

The best advice I can give you is to just get consistent on taking 3 xanax a day + refill. A lot of new players struggle to get the money to do this and so don’t build the repetition to do it consistently. To add this this factor in any happy jumps you can afford and you should be off to a great start

Eh it depends honestly. If you can afford it sure trains would be a good idea, but at the same time those things add up fast and can quite literally cost a few million a day.

I would probably see if you can’t find a company that has trains on rotation first. Quite a few company’s don’t really have high competition and would be willing to take in a new player and help them get started

If you can afford it, it's absolutely worth it in the long run, however:
For reference, i went to a 10* property broker and was paying 4.95M a day. (450k per train, 11 a day)

If you add xanax: about 2.4M + energy refill so 1.2m, that is:
5M + 2.4M = 7.4M + 1.2M = 8.6M a day.
Now, it is possible to pay less or not buy that many trains, but it's still a lot of money.

I'd recommend, like da boi flare, to join a company with rotational trains. Maybe a toy shop to bring more plushies, or a flower shop, u can guess why.

Maybe a 7* Sweet Shop so u can make a few more bucks a week by selling the ecan, etc etc.

List of companies and their perks

Too common do people think Stats => Networth and that just isnt true. You can way more fun in this game with money than you can stats.

I never recommend players breaking their bank to maximize HJs or trains. You need a training method that allows you to save while training consistently. If that means relying on free chocolates and ecstasy from a faction, so be it.

So true. I tell every player that it takes money to make money, the last thing you want to do is bankrupt yourself on your stats, because then you'll have to start over again at square one.

Use within your means, the goal is gains in both stats and money.

imo getting 10x bank investment merit and 2b is key, allows 4m in daily passive income, and then you can buy all the other stuff with it
