Update on my 1-99 challenge for earthbound. Got to level 9. Hope to be able to get to level 25 by the end of the week. That way I can insta-win both the dog and the snake to circumvent a lot of the grinding!


Again, for reference. I need around 800k exp. And coil snakes give 1 exp, spiteful crow gives 3, and the runaway dogs give 4. So the grinding process is without a doubt longer than I thought. I'd need 3 million battles, which every battle averages 10 seconds, so that would take me about 355 days around there to complete.

Here's a reddit thread I looked through as research to figure out this time. https://www.reddit.com/r/earthbound/comments/syb5u2/how_much_experience_to_get_ness_to_level_99/

This comment in specific "Let me guess, Hypixel Skyblock player?

You have to get 8071613 xp.

the 3 enemies are the Coil Snake, Spiteful Crow, and Runaway Dog. Assuming if you can average out. 1+3+4/3= ~2.67 xp.

8071613/2.67 is 3026854. So it would take you 3 million battles to get to 99.

Assuming each battle lasts ~10 seconds starting from the enemy touching you.

You sould spend 30268540 seconds. Or 350 days straight playing.

If you're only fighting Coil snakes, then you're going to be spending 2.55 years."

That time from seconds to hours is 8408 hours.

If I dedicate 5 hours a day on grinding. (less than I would normally because I'm still in school.)

Then it would take me 1681 days to complete this challenge. That's around 4 and a half years. But. As long as I have this laptop, then I am willing to dedicate my life to this challenge.

Currently doing a challenge for myself on Earthbound. Getting to level 98 (not 99 cuz magnificant) in the intro sequence of the game (before you go to the meteor) I'll post progress daily-weekly!

(No record of this challenge ever being done before!)

I am still doing practice with backgrounds and posing, I liked how it turned out!

The sunken sea themed castle I made (by myself for like 10 hours) in me, my brother, and friend's world in Terraria Calamity!

Sorry for the delay, I was struggling to find a way to post this image. Since on my phone it doesn't want to load on gamejolt.
