Where to Focus in the game

I started playing TSTO maybe 3 years ago - IIRC I started just before or during the THOH event where the UBO outfit for burns was the final prize - which I managed to get.

However I stopped playing for maybe 12-18 months and have just recently rejoined and I'm now trying to figure out where best to focus right now.

I'm level 80, have all the storyline quests done (finishing up pageant one atm) and all the Friend rewards etc are all up to date.

I've got around $1.5m in the bank right now, have some free space available but still plenty of land sections to open up. Bonus multiplier is at 82%

I've been looking at the various Donut-gaining methods and am unsure whether I'm best to go hard on them for a while or if I'm not quite ready for them, and better off trying to get my multiplier up further first

I still need to get the last few mansions etc for Springfield Heights which I understand raises your multiplier further? Also is it still worth doing the Monorail tasks each week for the donut reward?

Thanks in advance
  • Oh that's good to know - so the work to bring SH up to 100% will only be boosting XP

    No one has mentioned this yet, but here's the first thing you should do: as soon as you get enough donuts, buy beach hideaways one by one and upgrade each one to the max with SH resources. That will add 100% multiplier and make cash grinding much easier.


    Missed this post among the comments around houses - thanks for that!! At 40 donuts a pop they look expensive...I might wait until after THOH because I want to save up donuts for that event :smile:

    I would say do whatever you can to get all beach hideaways as quick as you can and upgrade them to get the 100% boost. That on top of any hidden Springfield heights bonus and you have the start of a decent enough KEM farm. XP Collider + 25 KEMs at a time (or whatever you can afford) and you will have a steady source of farmed donuts
  • I have 50 donuts now and $1.5m in the bank. I need more donuts for both the Hideaways and THOH coming up :)

    I'm not sure with some KEM farming NOW whether I'd be able to farm enough donuts for both?

    When the thoh event starts there will be premium items that expire after a week or so, and those that will be available for the entire event (usually 40 days).

    My advice is: if there is a quickly-expiring item that you absolutely must have, buy it immediately and then start working on your multipliers, you could build up a lot in those 40 days and still get the other stuff.
