I agree, the balance is very broken. got to T10 rebirth but I have no way to get to t2 abyss nor stage 40 for t3 ascension.
I got to 250 rebirth points and it just wasn't worth it never mind getting another 250 points for a seemingly useless buff. I need more damage not an extra life...
"name":"Extra life","description":["20% to RISE UP after death with 50% HP","+50% DMG and 25% DEF after rising for 8 seconds","After rising become immune to any damage for 4 seconds","Max Tier"]
So I can get +50% dmg after I die first and there's an 80% chance it won't work... very useless.
After cheating to get 2000 rebirth points:
750pts level scales better seems to mean progress? I can't tell but it's still not the damage I need.
1250 rebirth pts multi based on rebirth tier seemed to double my point gain at T10 but that is still trash when you give so little and need so much to make progress.
1500 formation T2. Finally! now I can double my damage... but I'm a glass cannon...
2000 amulet T3. this was probably a bad idea because of the +1 curse but I see the buff +1 requires stage 40 completion, which means I was supposed to rebirth hundreds of times to get to 2000 points before pushing to stage 40?!
Alright, I'll play some more to see how far I can get now...
Edit: I got further but still couldn't get to stage 30/40. I cheated to get souls, buffs (max level and change active ones), and EXP.
