True...

for some people efficency means getting exactly the number of merits that they need. For others it means spending the least possible amount of time getting them. The title of the thread is "most efficient ways to get merits". I'm sorry if you are offended, but there is more than one way to skin a cog ... and both fall within the domain of this thread title.

I went into the factory today and i was with 2 high laffers. well we were about to go fight the factory foreman and the one high laffer was like 'lets go to my house' and i guess there was an invasion. but my question is why did he say that. and after i didnt listen and battled him anyway (manly because i got to close and i didnt mean too) he got all mad. so is there an advantage to leaving. im confused. please respond back

Hmm.
Well don't know what this has to do with this but i'll be sure to tell you leaving a factory gets you nothing. You just wasted time in a factory to get nothing.
I don't know if he was waiting for an invasion or what but he should have stayed to get the merits.

Here is my guess. The big toons needed more than 500 merits but less than 750. It was their intention to get all merits in a single factory run and then go fight VP. But when you engaged the VP there was not an invasion and they were going to have to do another factory. So, they left. They figured if you ruined the factory for them then you could just fight the foreman on your own.

I have seen many big toons go absolutely nuts because a smaller toon didn't wait for an invasion. However, with that said, they should not have run. They should have jumped in and stalled for invasion by using lure and calling up doodle tricks.

WOW that must have been hard to figure out!

It wasn't too hard.
I just used basic math.
I had a calculator because I was too lazy to do it in my head.
I'm barely on algerbra one.(I may be good at math but my spelling sticks sometimes!)
I'm going to add electric energys chart into the guide too.
I mean i'm adding a link to his guide.

My goal is to reach MH lv15 at least.

Using this guide should help you understand how many factories are needed for one level. Don't forget earlier levels you might want to do buildings instead! Good luck getting thoughs merits!

It just tells you how to get your merits.

Let's just say that you needed 260 merits. You can get those merits by doing one short factory, because that gives you at least 260 merits.

Do you understand it now?

Very useful guide, thank you very much.
