You see, I was clever to get you to tt because I get a friend who can send me an extra pass or two 😄. I saw that you had a food item on your WL earlier but did not have that piece so I sent you what I had. I guess you like the firearm collection? I was very excited to combine my first set - it is not the easiest drop from HL but I keep a few baseline copies and wait until more drops before I "skim off" the top layer for shipping.

Free passes are very very welcome. Even one pass a day helps. Thankie. You should keep the CIs for yourself since you will need more resources than I do to complete your future quests etc.

As for balancing the pernicious energy vs. talisman issue, I prefer to use my baseline energy before whipping out an SOV- I like to take an extra second to "plan" or anticipate my needs for CIs then attack the relevant locations. I would burn an energy regenerator as soon as I start using my baseline energy - fire crystal shall regenerate 400 energy points over the course of two hours. You could try playing the first hour using your baseline energy (start fire crystal at beginning of game) then switch to SOV for the second hour and  hit high energy rooms that have CIs you desire (e.g. The Farm for rare gemstones).

Your fire crystal will give you extra energy by the time you  are finished. I don't recall having fire crystals in my inventory when I was around your level, so I am not sure...two hours of play may be enough for you to level up? 😃 I am not sure how quickly you can play in one SOV lifetime so I am trying to guess.

Always tt to restore baseline energy. Fire crystal may not be necessary if you are not at the beginning of your current level. Sorry I cannot be more helpful - I would use the tt/restoration of energy to advantage. I think working to level up would benefit you as well since you will have a larger baseline energy to play with; my playing style and strategy evolve in accordance with my/other 's needs and my current baseline energy level + resources.

I play with an eagle eye + ancient scroll for lower energy rooms and HL marathons. I try to save my winding keys/diagrams to cook SS but I have been playing with magic folio lately because I got the collections to drop from visiting. 😎

At my level, I would need more than one magic folio to level up completely. Since I play faster than most, my estimate may be off for someone at your level. How many xps are required for you to level up?
