0:10 Welcome everyone. Today I have a very
0:13 exciting guide about the perfect essence
0:15 farming and also the rates behind it. So
0:17 looking behind me, we have some very
0:20 nice estimated rates for the success
0:22 rate of essence farming. And this is
0:23 actually coming from the Chinese content
0:25 creators who has done some very
0:26 interesting samples and also
0:29 calculation. In this video, I'll be
0:31 trans translating those related
0:33 information as regards to when is the
0:35 best time to be using your coolant and
0:37 what are some of the graphs that can
0:39 show us more efficiency using the
0:41 coolins and also comparing how much
0:44 essence it will cost to fully upgrade a
0:47 flawless essence to 663.
0:49 If you look at my essence following the
0:52 method, I'm currently on 653 and it is
0:55 quite useful and also successful. We'll
0:57 also be looking what are the opportunity
0:59 cost and what are the ways of getting
1:02 those essence to high levels together
1:04 with the cost of the fivestar essence.
1:06 We'll be looking into a very important
1:10 2570 rule which means that you can spend
1:14 25% of the sanity to gain 70% of the
1:16 power gain which I explain on the second
1:18 half of the video. And following from
1:20 this, finally, we'll look into how long
1:22 would a free-to-play player take to
1:25 fully upgrade the essence from 111 to
1:28 663 to the maximum level, which for now
1:32 it is around 11.4 days. So coming over
1:34 to the first part of the guide and if
1:36 you do guys do want this particular
1:37 Excel and also the written notes, this
1:40 will be available in the links below.
1:42 Firstly, a big thank you and also
1:43 credits to the Chinese content creator
1:45 Biohazard over here who has done the
1:48 calculations and everything related. And
1:50 if you guys are good with probabilities
1:52 and using the statistics formulas to
1:56 estimate it, this is how he can conclude
1:58 to this particular summary using the
2:00 waitings and also success rate. So we'll
2:03 be just directly jumping into the final
2:05 results. So as you guys know there are
2:08 three types of upgrades for the perfect
2:10 essence or flawless essence. There's
2:12 primary stat, secondary stat and then
2:15 finally the skill effect. For the
2:17 primary stat there are five categories
2:19 of success rate tags as you upgrade
2:22 those. It starts with very high then
2:24 high then low and there are two very low
2:27 tags with different chance of success.
2:30 In summary, you start with 60% success
2:34 rate then 24% 10 5 and 2.6. 7. Please
2:36 keep in mind those are also close
2:38 estimations, but they are quite close to
2:40 what we're expecting as well. And
2:42 similarly, the secondary stat has
2:46 similar success rate from 60% to 2.7%.
2:48 Finally, for the special skill effect,
2:50 which are the twilight and also other
2:52 things you see over here, this
2:53 particular effect, the first success
2:56 rate is close to 11% followed by about
2:59 4% success rate for the skill effect on
3:01 the final upgrade. So this is fine going
3:04 level two to level three with 4.2%
3:07 success rate. The number of coolant
3:09 required to upgrade those flawless
3:11 essence is also over here which I'll
3:14 come over to my game and show you guys.
3:16 Probably easier to see this way. So if I
3:17 come over here you can see for level
3:21 five this will cost 450 coolant. So the
3:23 content creators have listed this done
3:26 and this is also available in any of the
3:29 wikis as regards to the flawless essence
3:32 and this goes from 30 to 45. Now what is
3:35 important is we'll be looking at the
3:38 expected amount of essence needed to
3:39 upgrade from level one to level two
3:42 which is 1.67 the level two to level
3:46 three which is about 4 9 20 and 37.
3:48 Those are important numbers which will
3:50 come back later. In terms of the
3:53 coolant, the quick summary of of when is
3:55 the best timing to be using the coolant
3:57 coming from the coolant efficiency
3:59 calculation is that the lower the number
4:01 is, the better it is to use a coolant.
4:03 And from the calculations over here, we
4:05 can see that using the coolant on the
4:07 level five upgrade from level five to
4:09 level six. So this is the stage I'm
4:12 currently. So I have level five to level
4:15 six and using a coolant with 450 coolant
4:18 is statistically the best result for the
4:21 highest value of coolant usage and this
4:22 is quite important if you're on the main
4:25 MX. So the lower the number is it is the
4:28 better. So this is how I have gotten my
4:30 previous level five to level six. I'm
4:32 about to save up enough coolant for the
4:35 second level five to level six. So to
4:37 summarize, you should be using coolant
4:39 from for the primary and also secondary
4:40 stats from level five to level six,
4:44 which will cost you 450 coolant by the
4:47 statistic efficiency. And we might be
4:49 thinking, hey, what about the skill
4:51 level? Do I want to go for level two to
4:53 level three and using the coolant? And a
4:54 lot of us were actually doing this,
4:56 which cost 300 coolant. But by the
4:59 calculation, this is actually a slightly
5:01 less efficient choice. You should be
5:05 just using the essence purely upgrading
5:08 with a 4.2% chance of success. And if
5:10 you fail a lot on this, the cooling can
5:12 then be used in the level five to level
5:14 six. So this is not the preferable
5:17 choice to be using the coolant. And that
5:19 summarized the first part of the
5:21 probabilities as I translated those
5:23 information as you can see over here.
5:24 And you can see how this is also
5:26 highlighted. The two preferable upgrades
5:28 are level five to level six. And it is
5:31 not recommended by stats to go for the
5:33 level two to level three upgrade which
5:37 cost you 300 coolant. Now there are some
5:38 very important understandings on the
5:40 second half. So let's go through this as
5:43 well. The first question is how much
5:44 would you save for using the coolant and
5:47 also without using the coolant. Firstly
5:49 what do I mean by saving? It's because
5:51 as you do essence upgrade you'll be
5:53 spending essence and those essence as I
5:54 move my head around you can see this is
5:56 a very low chance. And if I come over to
5:58 the Excel, you'll be able to see that
6:00 the very low chance over here is
6:03 actually the 2.7% chance, which there's
6:05 no way I can get lucky that easily
6:08 unless I spend like 30 of those the
6:10 flawless essence which are level five.
6:12 And it's quite hard to get those because
6:15 you cost you 80 sanity to get three of
6:18 those fing materials. So even if you
6:21 have the I guess the availability to
6:22 farm them, you still need a lot of
6:25 sanity. So, what we're really talking
6:27 about over here is the ability to save
6:31 up your sanity. Well, in both in games
6:33 and also in real life. So, if you're
6:36 using coolant, you're saving about 43%
6:40 sanity. And here's a summary. About 43%
6:41 of your fivestar essence upgrade
6:43 materials will be saved if you're using
6:46 the coolant correctly. And vice versa,
6:47 if you're upgrading everything without
6:50 the cool, you are spending about
6:54 177 fivestar essence to successfully
6:56 upgrade a 663.
6:59 So currently my one is where is my one
7:03 is 653. So I'm almost there. With the
7:06 coolant, you're looking at 102 fivestar
7:08 essence. So dramatically, you're saving
7:11 a lot for using the coolant. and we talk
7:13 about statistically what is the best
7:15 point of using a coolant that there's a
7:18 little more to this. So as we keep going
7:20 the Chinese content creator have said
7:22 you know statistically you can be
7:24 looking into those cooling upgrades and
7:26 we talk about this on the first part.
7:28 Now it is important to understand that
7:31 this efficiency usage is assuming that
7:35 you want the 663 success and get the the
7:37 flawless essence to fully upgrade to the
7:41 maximum level. But as we keep going, the
7:43 increasing nature of the investment in
7:45 terms of upgrade and also the cost of
7:48 the fivestar flawless essence is making
7:50 the sanity efficiency and also power
7:53 gain upgrades less efficient. So what
7:55 that means is if you look at this
7:57 particular graph which I try to explain
7:59 at the start as you gain the graph
8:02 represents how much power you gain for
8:04 spending how much essence at the start
8:08 if you go to 211 or 221 31 and then four
8:11 42 which is the essence itself when you
8:13 upgrade the main stats to this
8:15 particular stage. You can see the power
8:18 gain is pretty substantial at the start,
8:23 but as you get to 552, 55 53 and 663.
8:25 Finally, the power gain, this is how
8:26 much power gain you're getting, the
8:28 percentage of power gain versus how much
8:31 material you're using. It is less
8:35 disproportional. So, in summary, if
8:37 you're trying to get 663, then the
8:39 previous method should work. But if you
8:41 consider to gain the fastest amount of
8:43 power for each of your characters, then
8:48 aiming for 442 and so basically level
8:51 442 here on the particular flawless
8:54 essence and then aiming for 553 may be
8:56 the best alternative for the fastest way
8:59 of gaining power. Okay, that might be a
9:00 little harder to understand that, but
9:02 let's have a look at this. The average
9:04 cost of upgrading for each stage of the
9:07 essence level. So if you get into 331 it
9:10 will cost you about 8.2 five star
9:15 essence 442 about 24 of those 552 47 and
9:18 then 553 will take you about 60. Finally
9:22 to get to 663 it jumps by 40 flawless
9:25 essence to 101.
9:27 So, the Chinese content creator has
9:30 recommended this 2570 rule, which is
9:32 basically saying that if you aim to get
9:34 all your characters flawless essence for
9:36 the main team to 442, you would have
9:39 unlocked 70% of the stats gain or the
9:41 power gain for this character by coming
9:43 to the weapon with a flawless essence.
9:46 And this only cost you 25% of the
9:49 sanity. And the estimated sanity you're
9:53 saving is about 2,52 sanity. It cost you
9:55 around 200 270.
10:00 So 2007 27ish I can't remember exactly.
10:04 So to get to the maximum 663 the sanity
10:07 that required us to farm the fivestar
10:10 flawless essence you know you get three
10:14 of the per 80 sanity which is 2,700.
10:16 But if you're just going for 442
10:19 initially, this will cost you about 6 to
10:23 700 essence over spending another 2,5
10:25 2,000 essence on top of that. So there
10:28 is quite a bit of sanity saving because
10:30 of the this particular rule. And for any
10:32 team that you're building, let's say if
10:34 you got Ivon and you're starting a new
10:36 coal team, then you should aim for all
10:38 the character first for 442 and then
10:41 focus on getting Ivon to you know 553
10:44 and 663 for the highest power gain for
10:46 each of your characters. The future
10:48 investment of sanity provides
10:50 diminishing return. This means you're
10:52 spending three or four times more sanity
10:55 up to, you know, 2,700 sanity for a
10:58 minimum and min max gain of 30% more
11:00 power. Again, this graph shows it
11:03 perfectly. So, we're at the 442 stage.
11:06 And if you go to 442 to 663, you can see
11:09 we go from 70% to 100%. This is a power
11:12 gain and this is amount of usage of your
11:14 your sanity and also your fivestar
11:17 essence. So in short, if you are trying
11:19 to level any character for the greatest
11:22 power gain, aim for 442 because this
11:24 will be 70% of the flawless essence
11:26 gain. There are some additional
11:28 combinations you can look for after 442.
11:31 This including getting 442 to 443 and
11:34 then 553. On the tenatively you can go
11:39 from 442 to 552 and then 553. And this
11:41 of course shows the incremental amount
11:44 of the fivestar assets used for those
11:46 particular stage. And this will help you
11:49 plan ahead of time. Now you may be
11:51 wondering why is this important? Because
11:52 for a free-to-play player, if you're
11:56 looking into my regeneration of sanity,
11:58 the sanity regeneration is about every 7
12:01 minute and 10 seconds. And this is
12:03 actually very sneakily combined with the
12:06 regeneration coming from the daily which
12:09 gives you a sanity booster. The
12:12 emergency sanity booster is 40 and this
12:16 combines into 240 sanity per day. Yes,
12:18 they did this pretty sneakily. So every
12:20 day you're getting 240 sanity. And from
12:23 the calculations if you just try to get
12:26 one flood assassins to 663 it will take
12:29 you about 11.4 days. If you're a
12:30 free-to-play player, that's just
12:33 naturally regenerating a sanenity, which
12:35 is pretty insane. 11 days for a perfect
12:38 flawless essence, which I'm about to
12:41 reach my first one, as you saw over here
12:43 with a bit of luck. I'll get there soon.
12:47 So, 6 53 very soon, which have been
12:50 taking me over about 7 to 8 days
12:52 already. So, I'm about to get there with
12:55 a bit of luck. Now in that sense this is
12:57 why it is recommended to aim for 442
13:00 first because instead of taking you 11
13:01 days and this might take you about 2
13:03 days to get there and then you can kind
13:06 of balance the spending of your sanity.
13:09 It's also good to know to get the best
13:11 result for your car character. This is
13:13 how you go for it. Now this pretty much
13:15 summarize everything we learned from the
13:17 Chinese content creator. Keep your eye
13:20 out for additional information and also
13:23 related method of farming and also you
13:25 know upgrading essence. But that covers
13:27 everything and before I finish I would
13:29 like to refer back to our previous video
13:30 which will look into the ways of making
13:34 a maxing to farm for multiple flawless
13:36 essence best of thought you know 111 or
13:40 331 those kind of essence out of the
13:42 actual filters. So if you haven't seen
13:43 that video please have a look. I would
13:46 like to upgrade on this particular
13:48 method because another friend of mine
13:50 also shared me another tool which you
13:53 can be manually typing what item you
13:56 wanted. uh here or if I type this
13:58 particular item and this will provide me
14:01 with additional information of what I
14:03 can be filtering for for those
14:05 particular item and in that sense I can
14:08 be farming for multiple of the
14:12 additional items per essence spend out
14:14 per sanity spend and for more
14:15 information please have a look at the
14:17 previous video once you have seen the
14:20 previous video combined with this new
14:22 addition to your filtering you can then
14:25 try to farm for five or four different
14:27 flawless essence on wines by selecting
14:29 the right filters. And this is just a
14:30 additional bonus I want to share with
14:33 you guys because this particular two
14:35 combined with this particular two and
14:37 selecting the right aluminum location
14:40 will give you the highest potential to
14:44 get right essence per sanity spit. So
14:45 that is quite important. So I thought I
14:48 add this padding as well. And again
14:49 everything will be available for you
14:51 guys. Please let me know if you guys
14:52 have other recommendations on ways of
14:55 you know getting the best usage of
14:57 sanenity for the late game. Now you guys
14:59 might have noticed we have some members
15:02 only videos that is aimed for members
15:04 early access. Those videos will also
15:06 become available publicly for free as I
15:09 post them daily and as a a schedule for
15:10 them. But for those of you want to have

15:15 you can see those videos available if
15:17 you do become a member. Now again guys,
15:20 membership will cost money and this is a
15:22 great way to support me financially as I
15:24 make more videos as more guides to the
15:27 gadget games we love and also to more
15:29 information and also more news update.
15:32 And again thank you for all the members
15:33 that has been supporting me and for
15:35 those of you want to supporting me just
