What do you mean, “Why find another level?”
Because we want more snouts, lol!
SRC was only ever marginal for grinding Mastery, so in looking for a replacement lvl for SRC, should really only be talking highest snoutling payout.
More specifically, looking for best snoutlings-per-minute payout (SPM).
Additionally, I don’t have lots of free time to earn Mastery via grinding levels, so I want to buy it from dojo offers as often as possible, and I also want to minimize the time Epic is using battery or mobile data.
So, for those with similar criteria, I ran a brief SPM study on cave 1-5 vs 8-10.
20 minutes is about all I want to spend on an Epic session, so I did 20 minutes on each cave, count the snoutlings earned and divide by 20.
For 1-5, used M11 Cannoneer (w/Pickpocket) and M13 Wizard, on Autoplay.
For 8-10, used M12 Capt’n and M13 EPaladin, manual play.
Results
Cave 1-5: 20 min autogrind yielded 22.85 SPM the first time. 2nd 20 min grind was a little luckier with 27.7 SPM.
Cave 8-10: 20 min manual play yielded 38.7 SPM the first time. 2nd 20 min grind was a little luckier with 45.7 SPM. (Note: did not use any FE to re-spin the reward wheel during tests.)
For my 40 minute tests
Cave 1-5 = 25.3 SPM
Cave 8-10 = 42.2 SPM
So if you just want a quick 10 minute grind session, better SPM on 8-10 (if you can 3-star in 1-2 turns), and the difference should be enough to write off the paltry Mastery earnings of autogrinding 1-5. Maybe. I’ll keep tracking to see if the averages hold up and report back. Anyone know a level with better than 42 SPM over 10-20 minutes?
