I’ve already done some of the bigger impact items and almost gotten the two new turrets to L9... This is one of those questions I didn’t ask before jumping ahead.
The words of Yoda should remind us,: once you start down that path... forever will it consume you.
Maybe the future he could see?
When I started a mini base to see the impact of any item to base strenght, I always checked the ksod site to see the how much each new upgrade added to my base, like a new turret adding 25, or a shield upgrade adding 3, for example. Then I kept my 2 turrets at level 1, and upgraded all shields to max level.
There's nothing in the game saying you need to upgrade everything, but only what you think you really need. We saw in other thread that upgrading everything to Prestige can be a big mistake you can't undo -- case of Barracks with the increase in crystal costs to rush units. Keep one barrack/factory at 10, it's a good tip.
Why upgrading Refineries and Markets to Prestige? Or Traps, except the IDT/LAAT?
If you play wars, everything you can upgrade will help your base to survive, but if you're worried about PvP and how these new upgrades will increase your BS, upgrade only what you think you will need for now.
