User blog comment:Mweed42/Quest to reach level 70/@comment-5039776-20130116052515

Interesting blog. Just a few observations.

1.  IMO, your most precious resource is LAND. On this basis, Stargazer Shops are not worth it. They cost more than 3 times as much as a [Scooter Store]] and take up 25 squares compared to 16. In your quest to get to level 70, Scooters are better as they make higher XP per square per day.

2.  As you can, you should add 5 Mystic Quartz Shops, 5 Magic Temple Shops, 5 Naturalist Stores, 5 Mystic Fire Stores and, ultimately, 5 Volcano Workshops.

3. It is inevitable that your resource producers must go - you will go mad otherwise as well as limit your ability to get ahead.

4. In terms of the weekly challenge, I bring resource producers  out as needed for a couple of hours (popping a 5x5 decoration in inventory temporarily) to make the required resources for the challenge. After they they go away again.

5. By using the market exclusively, you make more money and XP than making resources yourself as there is no constraint on sales of scooters/dino scooters/mopeds and resources are substituted for XP- and profit-making stores. This is actually, IMO, the biggest "secret" of the game and what senior players need to pass on to other ones.

6. I agree that Scootervilles look butt ugly but they can be tarted up - see Lampville's village for a fine example.

7. Eventually, you'll be producing more coins than you know what to do with. Upgrading the rock is about all that will be left to you before the Phoenix Challenge kicks in.

Further reference can be see here, including some very interesting comments.

Good luck in your quest!
