When combining Speed Crystals, I had two Tier 2's, combined them into a single Tier 3, and the total Speed it showed below went from 3 to 2. Before that I had a Tier 2 and two Tier 1's.

So I combined the two Tier 1's, then combined the two Tier 2's. I went from originally a 4x Speed (shown below the squares), to a 3x Speed, to a 2x Speed.

I'm confused. It is better to have multiple Tier 1's? Is the resulting Speed benefit 1.3 + 1.3 = 2.6x Speed? Or is it 30% + 30% = +60% Speed increase?

From the math I see for speed and collection two T1's is better than a T2 the formula is below the inventory grid and given the exponential nature of how many T1's you need to get higher T#'s I'm not sure they'd ever be worth merging except to have space for more ... the formula for the mana one on the other has very different that merge as much as you can

Yes, that's what I'm seeing and understanding. Thanks for your input. I was hoping to bring this to the dev's attention, because by default I would assume it behaves differently, so I'm not sure if this is intentional or not.

Another potential issue is if you get the crystal upgrade without preparing you can get trapped with T1's you'll never be able to upgrade ... which granted is only an issue for those who really push the game to it's limits but it's still a potential issue

Oh that's true. In other merge games you're usually able to delete those, or they're automatically upgraded to the next tier when that happens. Good catch! Hope the dev sees this and updates the game. I love this game!
