from what I can find from a quick look it appears to increase the rewards that the Bob clones drop, the increases seem to be at level 2, 5, 8, 11, 13 and finally level 15.

Cool, hope it increases the fert/corn/DNA that is dropped and not just the masks.

masks are obtained elsewhere, guess where?
also isn't this supposed to be a spoiler post?

Thanks, not worth it if it is just masks. Took like 6 days to get all the shovels in Act 1.

Meanwhile, a question: Is this herbicide squirter the equivalent of that cannon thing in that other event whose name I have already forgotten?

Yes - it certainly seems so, but the crafting currency increases are randomly mixed. I'm going to see if I can keep it at a low level and still collect enough crafting items (it levels up with corn and DNA). I want to get a lot of DNA so I might stop leveling up at Level 5 or 8.

Too much going on in this event to really fathom it out!

At level 2 you get 7 per crafting item (fertilizer, corn, DNA) for each mutant Sideshow Bob, up from 4.
At level 5 you get 9 per crafting item.

Presumably this continues to increase linearly by 2 every three levels...

Cool, Thanks!

Thanks for the heads up, should hopefully unlock the squirter in about 2 days :(

Thanks for the info (it'd be nice if EA would show us this type of info on the upgrade screen itself it would make the upgrade decision easier and make the game play less focused on internet sleuthery) (that's sarcasm directed at EA, thanks for the info cbre 726)

The animation at Level 5 is really worth upgrading for. Don't know how much better it gets further on. :thumbup:

I don't have the thingy yet either. I have crafted nothing but level upgrades so far, you're saying I get to do it again? There better be bragging rights because I guess that's all I'm going to get to craft this event. Levels.
:roll:

LOL! me too, no buildings or decos to show for... hopefully it will be worth it at the event final hours

I don't have the squirter yet; but spoiler websites suggest you can collect up to 25 currency per tap (from 3, 7, 9, 13, 17, and 21) by reaching to level 15. After that there's no point in further upgrade since it only increase the blast radius only.
So IMO the situation is kind of like upgrading the research center earlier, except you know this time when you should stop the upgrade.
