Does nerve have a cap?

I mean I know energy caps at 1k but does nerve do so too? Can you increase it infinitely? Is the cap like happy is at 99k? Is it 1m? Am I overthinking this? Well I know that one, I absolutely am.

32767 is the nerve cap.

But its not really worth capping it out, because it would take a long time while losing out on natural regen.

Seems easy enough, only 131 red eggs lmao

Hehe.

Even if somehow managed to to get a 131 red eggs, you would have to keep eating them for 30 odd days straight :P

Could shorten that by a couple days using cannabis, 100% doable 🤣

challenge accepted

check back in about 200 years

Cannabis OD nukes nerve so this would be risky lol

Didn't even think about that, well then that's fun. What are the odds that someone has that many red eggs from back when they were buyable? If someone does would be a fun achievement forum thread to hit max nerve using eggs

Those were completely different eggs and have since been converted into government-grade chocolate eggs.  The red eggs we get now, have only been available since 2023 and have never been tradable (seemingly, never will be.)

By the time anyone gets 131 of the current red eggs, assuming they still exist by that point in their current format, most of us playing just now will be lucky to still be breathing (and this game will be lucky to still exist, not a dig at Chednerf or anyone else, it's just statistically probable that online games like this have a finite lifespan, regardless that it's been maintained for 2 decades so far.)

Even so, a whole month of not doing crimes just to stockpile some nerve, that would've been more useful to use as you went rather than just watch the number get bigger for 0 benefit, is backward mentality.  Although, on the cannabis issue, it would certainly reduce that crippling approach slightly, as the overdose rate is only 1/2500, so even if you've never had it before, it's very unlikely you'll overdose if you hadn't previously used as lot of cannabis* (theoretically increasing your risk of overdose.)

* Yes, I'm aware that some, particularly newer players, have overdosed on their first ever cannabis used but, it's extremely rare and let's face it, anyone attracted to the progress-stalling scenario D29 has put forward is hardly gonna be put off by an overdose risk, anyway.  🤷🏻

Are you sure its 32.767?   

Because 2¹⁵ is 32.768

0 is one of those possible values :)

Ohhhh right, i forgot about 0 lol

If anyone wants to do this (for science) it is actually feasible in a little over a year with the right prep and timing, without needing to live through 130 more easters first. 😂 You’d need to spend about 370 days in a 10* company that has a 1 jp = 2 nerve perk first, and should end sometime close to St Paddy’s Day.

Then on a full nerve bar, use all job points (this is when your stack starts) and get a job at a 7* pub. While waiting for pub perks to kick in, use any red eggs (at least 1), cannabis, and alcohol (although you want your  booster count at 0 when your job perks kick in). Also use the latest newsletter to gain 250 nerve.

Once pub perks kick in, start reading the Get Drunk and Lose Dignity book and drink 5 energy alcohol all month (making sure to clear booster down to 0 to get max bonuses from St Paddy’s event). This assumes you’re in a faction with full booster and alcohol perks. Also take cannabis round the clock, and collect a 5x CBD stock block every week.

By the end of the month, you should be at or close to max nerve, provided that you haven’t ODed on cannabis (or any other nerve killing drugs). 

#overthinking

It started by me asking a question, then making a joke, then thinking it was technically possible using 131 red eggs since I didn't know they are a new version and different from when eggs were buyable as i was not playing back then. 

This was NEVER about useful, we have all done things that aren't useful just because they are fun in our lives. No duh not using nerve for a month isnt optimal. And if you spend all that time preparing and doing it a cannabis OD would absolutely be terrifying no matter the odds of it happening  as (based on the scenario on the time you posted) it would have been decades of prep in getting the eggs. 

Its possible? Now ill have to do it in a couple years when I get that book XD

It's been done, I worked in a pub with the guy who was doing it around 2021

"the overdose rate is only 1/2500"

Sir. I've almost doubled that (4724 taken) and I still haven't OD'd on cannabis. My faction has made a running joke at my expense every time one of the younger players gets the merit. If I attempted to max nerve, and I OD'd on cannabis, I'd be ecstatic.
