Guys—-just hear it out. Optimal farming technique.
If you want to get the most juice out of your energy when you are farming—-Don’t Max Sim. Do 5 battles on Hard mode nodes, then 3. Or do 3-4 for small gear nodes and 6-8 for big gear nodes.
You will reap a stronger whirlwind that way. It’s all a gamble on RNG. This way-you’re just rolling the dice more, thereby increasing your chances for drops.
Call me a conspiracy theorist if you want to—-but what the heck is a Max Sim option designed for if not to keep people from figuring out how to optimize farming technique?
Try it first for a bit. You will see.
As for my comment about the gear window—-I’m thinking about Steve Jobs’ simplicity policy when forging new tech. You don’t add work in an update.
Now needing to use a finger from each hand instead of being able to reach it all with one finger from the same hand like before IS a step backward.
