@@TitusRedwind any basic broken build: get a symbol that can be buffed by other symbols x times, get loads of those other symbols. If we have a base symbol worth 2 with 8 symbols around buffing it x2 it's gonna give you 512 coins. Now pick a symbol that has the highest base value (or one that can increase it permanently), pick any items and essences that buff it, items that make it easier to make symbols adjacent (protractor, telescope, swapper), some arrows and you're making millions+ each spin. Sun + flower is strong because sun has insane x5 buff and there are many items buffing flowers Cats are insane because there are multiple items and essences buffing them, including one that gives them x13 buff. Also item/essence buffs multiply each other so after 2 x13 essences your cats have x169 multiplier

I'm actually surprised he doesn't. The man is all about ridiculously high earnings in a variety of games. To sum, up, for anyone who doesn't know... the e[N] part of the number is roughly how many decimals you need to move from the first number, to know what your actual number is. If it's a positive number you move your decimal right, if it's a negative number, you move it left. one quick example is: 1.56 e6 == 1,560,000 whereas 1.56 e-6 == 0.00000156 This is a simplified version to help us normal plebs make sense of all the "powers of 10" math that goes on behind the scenes.

@@youri3808 also theoretically speaking everybody on earth is using the metric system, since the metric definitions are based on fundamentals (i.e. distance of light travelled in a vacuum in a specified time for meters, number of atomic decays in caesium for seconds and so on), while the official definition of a mile is 1,609.344 meters as of 1959 so even if they use imperial units, those values now are by definition based off of the metric equivalent

An even more broken build for when you unlock essences is: 13 cats, 6 hexes of the same type, 1 witch This enables you to grab many essences that multiply the value of the symbols, and one essence makes the cats initial value copy that of the highest adjacent symbol’s value

The build I've found most broken in this game is Miners, Dames, Ores, and Geologists. It works out quite similarly to this combo, but most of the gems themselves have very powerful synergies and can quickly get you absurd amounts of cash.
