Factory Question

[Lefty McGoober]

I have a question regarding factories. When fighting cogs in buildings, the higher up you advance, to more points get applied to your gag training, but it’s the higher floors like 4th and 5th levels where you can maximize your earned points.

Does this same principle also work when fighting cogs in factories? I’m curious.

No, just in buildings.

Experience is doubled in the factory throughout. It does not multiplay as you get higher. In cashbot mints, it depends on which mint you enter. Coin - no experience bonus. Dollar - double experience. Bullion - triple experience. Experience in the DA offices multiplies the higher you get, but I haven't quite figured it out yet.

Intresting... I didn't know that. If points are doubled/tripled depending on which mint you go in to, do cog invaisions also act as an additional multiplier while in the factory? From what I've experienced in past mint runs I believe it does. Is that correct?

No, unfortunately, in factories, mints, and DA's, the experience does not double during invasions like on the street and in buildings. However, if you need a lot of merits, cogbucks, or notices, make sure you wait until an invasion starts before engaging the very last set of cogs. It doesn't matter how many invasions has occured while you were getting there; only the last one counts.

Factory - double gag points (regardless of invasion). With invasion, double merits.

Mints - Coin is 2x the gag points, Dollar is 2.5x the gag points and Bullion is 3x the gag points, regardless of invasion. With invasion, double bucks.

DA's - Gag points are 1x, 1.5x, etc up to 3.5x. When you are in a battle, put your mickey-finger over a level 1 gag and it'll show you the experience for that floor. If you want a gag-multiplier to floor-number (and vice-versa) conversion, it's simple: Level-1-gag-points x 2 - 1. If it's 2.5 for example, it would be 2.5 x 2 = 5, 5 - 1 = 4, you're on the 4th floor. Do the reverse to figure it out, add 1 to the floor number, then divide that in half. This is regardless of invasions. With invasion, you get more notes, but not 'double notes'. Some of the notes are doubled, while other notes are "set in stone" valued. That's why in Office D, with invasion you get 1542 notes, but without you get like 921.

In VP, CFO and CJ, gag points are doubled for the cog round. In VP, for the skelecog round, gag points are tripled.

Thanks for clearing that up for me. I've been curious about the factories. Your responses are much appreciated.

Thanks for the explanation on the DA's (I've been trying to figure that one out) and for correcting me on the mint numbers. I can always count on a good explanation from you.

A lot of LawBot HQ information can be found here: Lawbot HQ for Llamas!

D = 1,542

Click here for a post I made that gives a lot of babbling information on the notices...

Office C = 460 Notices (920 during invasion) + 225 bonus
Office D = 621 Notices (1242 during invasion) + 300 bonus

Take office D. (A,B,C,D) 4th elevator, so 75x4 = 300.
621 notices + 300 bonus = 921, without invasion

As for the factory stuff, I made a thread that is painfully detailed on doing factory runs, in the SellBot HQ subforum.
