Idle Mine WalkthroughThere is no wrong/right way to upgrade in Idle Mine. In my opinion, I would prefer to craft a stronger pickaxe, therefore Upgrade Blacksmith than to slowly stack the Manual Click Power. Mainly because the power from the pickaxe is a leading factor for your overall damage output, while Manual Click Power is a percentage multiplied onto the power. The best way for me is to level up Upgrade Blacksmith first, until you are almost in the same price range as Manual Click Power. Then upgrade both Manual Click Power and Upgrade Blacksmith 7-10 times each. Here's the moment of truth... Try your luck by crafting a new pickaxe! Most of the time you will success with your first try however, craft several times to get the highest quality ones. Continue follow the recommended build above and unlock those upgrades you can afford. Finally, repeat the entire process again!
Gem waster is an extremely useful upgrade later on when you're mining high level hellstone, at least in my experience. Don't worry about wasting gems... The simple way to farm for a decent amount is by attacking the strongest mine that you can one hit auto with, and still earn a fair amount of money. Poo is just the first one you can do this at and not the best. A good way to figure out the most efficient ore to manually click is to find the one with the highest auto g/s. The g/s is more of a representation of earnings than an actual cash producer. It just calculates how long it takes to fully mine an ore, and divides the reward by the amount of seconds it take to mine that ore by idling alone. That's how it comes to that value. This should output a highest average amount of damage and earn you the most amount of gold in any second.
Pro-Tip: Hit alt-shift-num lock and activate the ease keys. Then press and hold '5' & '+' on the num pad. Every time you hit '5' it counts as one click, every time you hit the '+' it counts as two clicks... You'll save yourself from carpal tunnel syndrome and your mouse won't go bad. :D
Multiple 1.2 to the HP of the previous, 1.2 to the previous defense and 1.35 to the previous money.
Example
1. To calculate Hellstone Lv.26, take the values from previous level.
Hellstone Lv. 25 - HP:254,389.91b | D:12,652.84b | $3,991,390,547.06b
2. Multiply Accordingly
Hellstone Lv. 26 - HP:254,389.91b * 1.2 | D:12,652.84b * 1.2 | $3,991,390,547.06b * 1.35
3. Tada!
