Delete post THIS IS A SPINNER or cancel THIS IS A SPINNER metadata **EXPANSION: SECRETS OF THE ANCIENTS** - NEW RESEARCHES: The Research system has been expanded to the Neutral factions: Titans, Druids and the Faceless. Starting from Reincarnation 23, excavate enough and follow the questline to discover the Secrets of the Realm and unlock Neutral Unique Buildings and more than 40 new researches for you to explore, unlock and customize your builds more than ever before! - EXCAVATIONS REVAMP: Excavations now have their dedicated panel, no longer littering the upgrade list with their everlasting presence and allowing players to manage them better. In the new panel, you can now Multibuy excavations in the same way you do with buildings (you can activate the Excavation Warning option in the Options menu if you don’t want to excavate too much); Reset your excavation progress manually at the cost of a few Rubies; and lastly you can check Excavations stats and logs and a list of the artifacts you discovered so far. **Note:** Rubies are only awarded the first time you reach specific Excavation thresholds – resetting excavations and reaching them again won’t award more rubies. - RUBY REVAMP: You can now get rubies for free by excavating, and they now unlock upgrades and trophies as you accumulate them. They no longer give a fixed 2% bonus, but are instead tied to a new upgrade system. As a result, their bonus per money value has been increased significantly as Rubies now not only give a nifty bonus for accumulating them, but you can also spend them to fulfill your most urgent Realm Grinding needs such as assistants, mana regeneration and more. **WARNING:** rubies are no longer tied to your Kongregate account and will be reset upon Hard Resetting or importing from a different save. Rubies you purchased before this expansion will be available for transfer to a save of your choice. **Note:** if you lose your data, we can restore your purchased Rubies with ease and 100% precision, since all premium purchases are still stored on Kongregate servers. - NEW AUTOCAST UPGRADE: Efficient Autocasting, which will allow you to select Independent Spells (bronze icon, set with CTRL+SHIFT+Clicking the spell) to work outside of contingency settings. These spells disregard your contingency rules and are casted as soon as you have enough mana for them. - NEW REINCARNATION POWER: At Reincarnation 25, Reincarnation Power will increase Royal Exchange bonus by 0.5% per Reincarnation. NEW UPGRADES: new upgrade tiers for most of the already existing categories including but not limited to buildings and neutral production. - NEW TROPHIES: new trophy tiers for most of the already existing categories, and several secret trophies for you to discover :) **Non-expansion notes:** - Perfectly Good, Diabolical Evil and Lucky Neutral now count time through Reincarnations. - For Science! now affects all factions with access to research. - Cursing (Divine 25) has been scaled down. - Tinkering (Craftsmanship 150) effect and scaling decreased. - Aeromancy (Spellcraft 250) has been scaled down. - Magnetism (Craftsmanship 250) has been scaled down. - Druid upgrades rebalanced: Bardic Knowledge effect increased; Mabinogion effect increased. - Faceless upgrades rebalanced: Deep Memory effect increased and mechanic reworked: now calculates its bonus based on the longest session (including the current one) rather than last session; Brainwave bonus increased to 2% per second (3% with Faceless Overmind), up from 1.8% (2.5%). - Quality of Life improvements: more upgrade series are now consolidate and available for Multibuy, including but not limited to Autocast Series and assistants from buildings. - New Events panel to accomodate event-based feats and quests! - Fixed lots of tooltips. **Technical notes:** - Game performance improved. - With this expansion, we changed they way Cloud accounts are handled. If you did not Link your previous Cloud account to Kongregate, a new one will be automatically created and linked to Kongregate for you. If you have any question, or if you can no longer access your old Cloud account, please contact us via PM. **WHAT’S NEXT** - Look forward the upcoming Christmas Event, starting in a few days! More detailed info [here](http://www.kongregate.com/forums/8945-realm-grinder/topics/575643-realm-grinder-christmas-event). metadata Incredible update! Changes quite a bit of the game. Thank you!

I just bought around 1k excavations… You can prevent this by enabling the Excavation Warning option in the Options menu. metadata Is there a way to get rid of the “+x mana!” text? metadata I think it’s broken. I clicked NO and it did excavate. metadata > *Originally posted by **[Thomadaneau](/forums/8945/topics/575644?page=1#posts-9978585):*** > > I think it’s broken.

Rubies are found the first time you reach a specific excavation threshold, so reaching it a second (and subsequent) times won’t get you more rubies. > *Originally posted by **[Naidsipo](/forums/8945/topics/575644?page=1#posts-9978621):*** > > _Ph’nglui Mglw’nafh Cthulhu R’lyeh Wgah’nagl Fhtagn._ > Does Longest Session stat resets upon Reincarnation?

Notthing happend except the window closed. ~~We’re aware of the bug and working to fix it asap!~~ EDIT: should be fixed now. metadata Excavations number reset to zero. metadata thanks! metadata I wonder where my Scarab of Fortune is… Did it reseted? metadata Excavation amounts have been reset for all players the first time they open the game after the expansion launch – we made it so that everyone has a chance to get their first free Rubies. As for the Scarab of Fortune, it escaped and hid itself better than ever. You will need to excavate it again! metadata Thanks for the update! This is really great :) Here’s my opinion of this update Still haven’t reached researches but glad to know this game keeps on aiming for more longevity. I do admire you guys to keep updating this game and turning into the best incremental I ever played. Love the excavation panel although I found this a bit ironic: “Excavations now have their dedicated panel, no longer littering the upgrade list with their everlasting presence” Rubies upgrades were added to the upgrade list with their everlasting presence… My suggestion would be putting the rubies upgrades inside the excavation panel so I won’t keep pressing rubies upgrades even though I have that ruby warning option. About the rubies, they have a much better use now which is great. During the thanksgiving event I bought the gift of heroes and with the remaining kreds got 10 rubies and now I feel they are actually worth it although it seems unfair for older players, that already are at higher reincarnations can’t benefit from previous excavations and that also makes us wonder if we should keep trying to get more excavations before reincarnating as soon as possible. It seems counterprodutive unless you guys are aiming it for the shop which is understable you deserve it but please don’t focus on that if that’s your objective. The new autocast upgrade is wonderful I have thought many times to myself that I need an autocast like that so can’t wait to unlock it. Thank YOU for the “Perfectly Good, Diabolical Evil and Lucky Neutral now count time through Reincarnations”. I was thinking I would never get those but now I see hope at the end of the tunnel :D The rest I still need to discover but awesome update! Keep up the great work guys! metadata Is this bonus we get by stacking rubies reduced if we buy the upgrades? I just reincarnated so I don’t know yet… metadata This is a great update, some suggestions Leave the rubies updates in the excavation tab as people are going to be accidentally spending them… as I did earlier. Also, it might be a good idea to keep excavations as unmarked for the buy max option. People have been accidentally buying out all of them when they only intended on just a few clicks metadata We will be working on the placement of the new ruby upgrades in future updates – as for rubies from excavations, we updated the first post to clarify that you only get free rubies the first time you reach specific excavation thresholds. metadata > *Originally posted by **[Leux](/forums/8945/topics/575644?page=1#posts-9978701):*** > > Is this bonus we get by stacking rubies reduced if we buy the upgrades? I just reincarnated so I don’t know yet… The base production bonus from Rubies is calculated on the all-time amount of Rubies you collected, not those you currently own, so it won’t be any lower if you spend them on upgrades or perks :) metadata Can you do something about icons switching their order all the time? The new ruby icons suffer from this, as well as the various mercenary upgrades… The new ruby upgrades also seem to intermingle with a lot of the cheap upgrades that are available at the start of a run, like gem power and the speedrun upgrade that boosts clicks by 1M. Or the “I need some help” one that gives you 10 free coins. It would be nice if they could all sort themselves neatly and not fluctuate around as upgrades are added or removed from the list. EDIT: The merc heritage isn’t with the rest of the heritages; please fix that as well while you’re at it. metadata It would be nice if the ‘Buy 1/10/100/MAX’ Button was still clickable while the excavations menu. It’s annoying to have to go back out to change it. metadata > *Originally posted by **[Quizer](/forums/8945/topics/575644?page=1#posts-9978717):*** > > Can you do something about icons switching their order all the time?

I think you have sort by price active. « Prev
