 you're right that bots are the main thing — they're how many tiles you can work at once, and there's a cap on that per run. So more area 3 tiles + your current bot cap means it crawls. Prestiging raises the cap though, so that throttle opens up the more you prestige. There's also a distance factor — the further from the bunker, the harder the land is to "revive" — so area 3 is those two stacking. Is it feeling like a fair grind, or too steep even with prestige in mind?
