alright, let’s do this

WRIGHT’S GUIDE TO MAKING FAT STACKS OF CASH DURING NOTN

1. Save your leftover drops from last year. Do NOT hoard sell them or convert them into food. 

Having a bunch of leftovers means that you have a buffer for Swipp swaps. Keep an eagle eye on the swap stand the first couple of days and trade as much as you can. 

2. Sell EVERY CHEST YOU GET during the first couple days.

Prices on Strange Chests tank FAST as everyone undercuts each other and the supply increases. Prices will be at their highest on the first few days, so during that days, SELL EVERY SINGLE CHEST. Do not open ANY. It’s tempting, because you might find an egg or a noc scroll, but the chances are too low to make it worth it. Just sell those chests. 

3. After the first few days, you can start opening chests, but SELL ALL EGGS OR NOC SCROLLS FOR THE FIRST WEEK. 

Again, prices will plummet on these items, so sell all of them the first week. If you really want to hold on to eggs for a mass hatch of whatever, then sell half any you get in a day for the first week. 

4. Always list items you sell at the lowest Auction House price.

Items move FAST, like, things will sell seconds after you list them, but only if it’s the cheapest price. Always always ALWAYS check the lowest price before listing anything. 

5. Coli smarter, not harder. 

Here’s how I coli: I check Swipp. If he doesn’t have any swaps for the lower level venue drops - anything below Redrock, bc that’s the highest I can go and still get 1-hit KOs with Eliminate - I set a timer for when the swap resets. I then go and do something else with my time. 

When the timer goes off, I check back. If there are swaps for low-level drops, I then spend the next 2 hours grinding. Most swaps require drops from 2 different venues, so I’ll spend 1 hour in each venue. Put on a podcast or watch a movie to pass the time. Right before the swap resets, go and trade until you run out of the required drops. Then, watch the swap reset. 

If it’s higher level drops, reset your timer and go do something else. If it’s lower level, go back to grinding. 

You want to stick to lower levels because you can get through the battles faster. Higher level venues just aren’t worth it. Also, it forces you to take breaks. Make sure that when you take your breaks, you’re getting up out of your seat and moving around. 

DISCLAIMER: 

Since there’s quickly becoming a lot of these tips, I’m going to make a compilation post. I’ll edit this post each time there’s a new one. Copypasta introduction from the first post:

Okay, so I’ve spent a little time playing this game on easy and it’s pretty clear that to get good at it, you’ll need to be able to find different configurations that will ALLOW you to clear the board. That is, figure out how to go from certain configurations to a win and then spent your energy getting to those configurations.

Each of these tips contains the solution starting at a different configuration, and each tip’s starting configuration is shown below the link. My strategy is pretty much just: “click around until you get to one of these configurations, then solve it from there”. Luckily, neither time nor moves actually changes the amount of treasure you make, so it doesn’t really matter how much you click around randomly.

All you do in put your dragon’s ID and bam! Instant ancestors.

I did it. I cracked 7mil. 

Take your toll, For Nocturne scrolls, Eggs and clothing? Ha, how droll! We’ll bear-bear and bear with bear, A Coli-nary cabearet! You’re alone, And you’re scared, But the Swipp trade’s all prepared! All are gloomy or complaining, While the grind’s not entertaining! We tell jokes, And make memes, And our poor wrists and fingers scream, And it’s bringing carpel tunnel, you can bet! Come on and Scratch that Moth! We’re working up a froth! To get a chest, If you’re stressed, It’s the cauldron we suggest! Get a chest, Get a chest, Get a chest!

Life is simply baffling, For a monster who’s not dodging, He’s just dead with all that breath to waste upon… Ah, those good old days when we had no bears, Suddenly those good old days are gone… Three years we’ve been rusting, Needing so much more than dusting Needing exercise, a chance to use our skills Most days we just get brewed up at Baldwin’s…

Now we’ve cycled in, though, You want to see just us foes!

It’s a chest! It’s a chest! Sakes alive, well I’ll be blessed! Chests in Hoard and thank Tidelord I hope the contents do impress, Oh not again, Make bearskin, And my dear that’s fine with me! And at Baldwin, to get goo in, I’ll be bubbling, I’ll be brewing! I’ll get muck, From the bear, Just dissolve it, I don’t care. Chuck it in! We want ingredients express! We’ve got a lot to do Is it red ooze or blue For you, a chest, Get a chest, Get a chest, Look a chest!
