Idle Planet Miner – Quick Guide to Long Haulers

Long Haulers Guide

• Long Haulers are generally noted by having the turtle pet as part of their name.
• You can join Long Haulers Gang by completing a 14 day old galaxy with a galaxy value of over 10B.
• Long Haulers try to go to credit cap at e220.
• Credit cap without any additional helps such as Lounge, Space Station, or Exodus ship is: 203,695 base credits.
• Credit cap with Max upgrades to all bonus credit areas will award: 1,334,282 credits.
• This is meant as a more relaxed style of play, take a break from grinding galaxies and come on over for some peace.

Strategy

Upgrading Planets

• You need to stay two letters/6 tiers behind your galaxy value to not lose equal coh/gv
  • Ex: GV = 1S
  • Mining Level – 1Q
  • Ship/Cargo Speeds – 1q

Starting a LH from a Tournament

• Do as many colonies as you can during the tournament
  • Remainder of colonies should be saved for Daily Task Assignments when possible

Alchemy & Terraforming

• Planet 66
  • Alchemy 1 for Wraith
• Planet 63
  • Alchemy 2 for Wraith
• Planet 60
  • Alchemy 3 for Wraith
  • Terraforming 2
• Planet 57
  • Terraforming 1

Boosts

• Best to save for tournaments and challenges

COH Savings

• It is best to start saving COH to get it as equal to GV as possible when you are no longer making large gains in galaxy value.
• This happens most often after beginning to make SRs
