Players can try to set the best scores in various different categories . You can compete with each classic ship separately. But there are some restrictions , depending on the tournament world there are ships and items banned.

Factions Guide

Image
What are factions? Factions are basically a "prestige" system where if you join a faction you restart . There is a special currency called " reputation " which you can get by joining a faction or trading ys/rc for it after you join a faction which doesn't reset your progress. There are 3 factions: -Temple of Hyperion -Crystal Consortium -Void Legions Why should you join a faction? You unlock new things like for example new missions, items, and ships. They cost reputation and normal money. Especially the items are very worth it, with the 3 "rounds" items from the 3 factions being better than the skilled 40%x2.5 item. Also if you do all the missions you get a skillpoint and 3 extra skillpoints are great to have too. How do you join a faction?   You need to get to the tier where the"band"/"ring" of the faction is located. Inside the rings there are the outposts, where you can join the faction: Temple of Hyperion - Tier 710...

Basic ship building tips

Ship building help This is a full guide about basic building tips from damage multipliers to AoE, pierce, crosses, and more. Short overview: (credits to dudiobugtron for making this) More detailed explanations: Paths: When you make a path you want it to be as long as possible and only split at the end, by that you can put many items in one row and they can all interact with each other.  The same goes with custom chunks, you can try to move the chunks and then calculate which layout you came up with is the best by counting the items spots in the ship and the crosses you use (read multipliers and loop for the numbers)  There is also a list of the  Meta Paths  for classic ships. and for custom ships, you can always ask in the discord server. Items: Priority: When you want to fill your path with items you don't prioritize direct dmg first. You want to first put additive dmg, extra projectiles, piercing and aoe etc. But keep in mind there that you want to fill cross loops...

Tier Custom Builds

Custom Ships for Tiers This is a list with some good paths for tier builds. this should hopefully help you !Spoiler warning! this might take the fun of coming up with your own tier build ideas.

Legendarys Guide

Image
This is a full guide about legendary placement and legendary order !DISCLAIMER! before you joined all factions i reccomend only getting the corner piece legendary, you can get more legendaries if you want The first legendary items are unlocked at tier 500 then at 600 and 700. They cost 500G and 500 Ys legendarys for the tier 500 legendarys and the others cost correspondingly more. See this guide to see how to get that. For the order use this: (Note that the meta now is to use 2 pierce 2 add projectile instead of 1 pierce and 3 add projectile) For the first legendary use it at the start before any multipliers and after addition with this combo: Note:With the combo it should activate around 90% of the time and if you could use a cloner and an add projectile before this one it would be better, but if you move the add projectile from inside a loop to outside and dont have anything to fill the loop with other than multipliers, then just dont bother Note 2: Dont add any add...

Where is the Backupsave?

The backupsave on android is: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.GermapurApps.MinerGunBuilder/files/B1 On Steam it is: C: \Users\MyUserName\AppData\LocalLow\GermapurApps\Miner Gun Builder If you can't find it you maybe haven't saved a backup file, then go ingame and do that in the settings.

If you want to transfer the saves, just copy one of the files and move it to the other device and click "load backup" in game. 2nd Account  If you want to start a new account and delete the old just delete B1, Or move B1 to another folder if you want to keep it.

Before you read any further please keep in mind, that this will be a full guide, so it could take the fun from some people.

Wave/custom ship explanation

Image
This is an explanation for waves and custom ships so you know everything and can start playing waves . First, I want to explain what I mean when I say certain words: rc: "Red Crosses", the currency you get when playing waves and which you need to buy chunks Chunks: The 3x3 blocks which you buy with rc and build custom ships with Items: All the things which you put in the ship and buy in the normal shop What is the Waves mode? The waves mode is unlocked when you reach tier 400 but you should start playing it when you are tier 1000 I'll explain later why.  With the wave mode, a new building screen and shop is unlocked, that is because in the wave mode you can't use your normal ships, you have to use a custom ship that is made out of 3x3 blocks. When playing waves you get rc, you need these to buy the 3x3 chunks. Every wave consists of 105 blocks (7x15). The health of the blocks increases with the wave. You have 28 seconds for wave 1 and from then till wave 10 it lowe...
