Gold Diggers

Unlocked after defeating T3 (Jake From Accounting) and consuming ‘A Scrap of Paper’, Gold Diggers consume a constant drain of gold production from TM to provide various bonuses.

Unlocking/Upgrading Diggers

• Each Gold Digger needs to be unlocked by paying a one-time gold fee
• After being unlocked, gold diggers can be upgraded with increasing one-time gold fees
• Each upgrade unlocks a new level that the gold digger can be run at, providing better benefits at the cost of more gold drain
  • For diggers on the first page, their upgrade costs increase by 1.5x per level
  • On the second/third page, their upgrade costs increase by 1.75x per level
• Upgrading diggers also provides a global bonus to all diggers, up to 0.05% per level
  • Even if you don’t use a specific digger, you should still upgrade all diggers
• All digger unlocks and upgrades are permanent and persist through rebirths

Using Diggers

• After unlocking a gold digger, you can activate it by toggling its Digger Active box
  • If you do not have the gold production to afford the digger, you cannot activate it
• After purchasing upgrades for a digger, you can decide what level to run that digger at
  • First page diggers cost 1.5x more per level, second/third page cost 1.75x more per level
  • You cannot increase the level of a digger beyond what your gold production can afford

Digger Slots

• You can run as many active diggers as you have digger slots
• After unlocking Gold Diggers, you have one digger slot provided by default
• There are 12 total obtainable digger slots, allowing you to enable all diggers constantly
  • It’s not recommended to buy all 12 digger slots, as you never need to run every digger
  • You never need more than 9 digger slots
• Sources for other digger slots:
  • 1 from maxing ‘A Scrap of Paper’
  • 1 from EXP Shop (25k EXP)
  • 6 from AP Shop (first slot is 110k AP, every slot after is 225k AP)
  • 2 from ITOPOD Perks (25 PP, 250 PP)
  • 1 from completing No Time Machine Challenge 5
