 Now we can max kill steamdrakes and deathwhispers! That means we can go for the 1M kill mark (and still continue doing the daily quests later on because they are still good income) if we want to. We can also progress through the main questline requiring us to kill tens of thousands of Steamdrakes and Deatwhispers. After this point though? We can be much more relaxed, act freeform and choose our goals, as the only significant one left is about 30% allstat away. Now we can max kill steamdrakes and deathwhispers!

-After all of this, around 131-133% allstat, we achieve the coveted 18 AS. All of this allstat should safely get us killing 15 Steamdrakes and Deathwhispers.

 + 
 +Continue doing the daily quests for Steamdrakes and Deathwhispers even after reaching the 1M kill mark: they bring great income. Both quest combined will bring more than 1M gold worth of materials every day. 
 + 
 +===== Mining laser investment ===== 
 + 
 +Until you achieve level 80 in mining, it's best to just keep a Flat Orthoclase mining laser. However, after mining level 80, we should go all out for a single ore's mining lasers as it brings an incredible amount of income immediately. The order of upgrade is Base, Percentage, Purity, Double. 
 + 
 +The mining masteries, especially the lower ones for Orthoclase and Anorthite, are incredibly useful here. 'Surface Mining' gives up to %60, the ore specialization masteries give up to 25% more ore. These are easily achieveable masteries, with 1x and 2x times. If you're a serious miner: at the deepest end of the mining mastery chain, 'Depth Mining' gives 25% more ore. 
 + 
 +Look at prices, pick an ore accordingly, check the investment gold of the lasers and pick your lasers. Ditch your Flat Orhoclase laser and equip all 4 mining lasers of the same ore. All your income should go to getting them to level 80 ASAP. 
 + 
 +This income is what will carry us through Plat gate troubles and T8 equipment acquirement. 
 + 
 +===== More Attack Speed breakpoints ===== 
 + 
 +After this point, there are 3 ways to increase your Attack Speed, which is the biggest factor of combat in the later stages of the game. At this point in the game, you should be progressing slowly into level 130, the point where T8 equipment unlocks and the cost of increasing your firepower gets bonkers expensive. 
 + 
 +The 3 ways left are: 
 +  - The speed killmarks in compendium. The remaining one should be the first Maw monster: Unhallowed Husk. Max killing this monster without some T8 gear is night impossible as the jump from Abyss to Maw is just as hard as it was from Wastelands to Abyss. It's feasible to get the first killmark at 200k kills for an AS jump if your current speed is close to a breakpoint. 
 +  - Getting level 75 and above Drone. The level 75 Drone alone grants 37.5 speed. Compare that to the max compendium speed gain of 30 and we can see just how powerful it is. However, this is the most expensive method to get more speed, as getting to level 75 of a Companion takes 75 plat. 
 +  - More Allstat. MORE! 
 + 
 +Without the level 75 Drone bonus (it wasn't there when I got to the AS breakpoints): we can get... 
 +  * 17 AS at 143% allstat 
 +  * 16 AS at 151% allstat 
 +  * 15 AS at 159% allstat 
 + 
 +It's most likely that we won't even achieve 17 AS before we arrive at the critical Combat level 130 point and unlock the T8 equipment. The global gold boost of combat exp is especially powerful before level 130. 
 + 
 +When I got to level 115, I had 6 pieces of T7 ready (bought or prepared, empowered at least to E10). 
 +When I got to level 130, I couldn't even prepare 1 T8 piece. 
 + 
 +You will learn just how expensive the T8 equipment are, at the [[end_game_guide|End Game Guide]].
