Immortal Diaries tips and tricks (from a thrifty player)
After a month of playing this game, I want to share some tips and my habits that I discovered along the way. Took me a while to get this posted because I'm lazy AF.
1. After reset (usually after I woke up), here's what I do (in order of priority):
- claim free items in the item store, discount tab (so one of the tasks in magicarium about buying items in store turns 1/3)
- flirt ONCE (yes, once, so that you can still make use of the remaining flirts accumulated after giving gifts, that way you can get more fondness)
- work, research and replenish ONCE (same reasoning as above, that way we can maximize our accumulated upper limits after we train and level up, since they increase after that)
- affairs ONCE (we can get back to this later, this way we can use the remaining time to accumulate up to the upper limits)
- date ONCE (this is only for those that have max # of lipsticks, usually 10, so that you can give time to accumulate it while you do other things)
- claim daily free gems from monthly/yearly subscription (because, diamonds!)
- check travel if upper limit is reached. travel again (remember to choose a set that has highter % for more gains).
- check dispatch if followers are back. dispatch more (you can check if you have followers that need to level up for more dispatch gifts - upgrade them before sending to dispatch)
- harvest and replant plants/flowers (of course, obtain dog food after)
- feed pets (will be discussing a tip here on the next paragraph)
- hit all villains in the black market (so we can get more gifts, that is if you've accumulated morale up to Natalia. also to get more energy and coins and michief things and diamonds if you can reach Ophelia)
- debate (don't disregard this, as this is part of the requirements in the queen's path)
- level up followers (depends on how you want to appropriate your coins)
- train followers (same as above)
- work, research and replenish ALL (since you're done maximizing them)
- affairs (same as above)
- grant GIFTS (to increase intimacy which helps get more fondness)
- flirt ALL (since you've increase the intimacy already, this will give you more fondness pts)
- shopping (if your pets have gone adult. this is after granting gifts, that way you can get more fondness)
- date (if you have enough lipstick left)
- rosemall lucky draw (will explain more of this on the next paragraph)
- alliance build (to help your alliance, as it benefits everyone if alliance level goes up)
after all these, it's up to you to go back on what needs to be worked on. below are the things I do last minute before reset:
2. Before reset (last minute things I do)
- level up and train followers (that way before you hit the boss or alliance boss you have maximized your follower's level ups and trainings)
- palace greet (because what if in the middle of the day you were able to increase your peerage? 10 diamonds make a difference... well that's just for me, who is quite thrifty in this game)
- maximize magicarium purchases (20 silver cards are quite a gain!)
- fight alliance boss (for the love of alliance)
- fight level boss (this way, you have maximized everything you can before reset happens)
- I found out that the more "cringey" option you choose, the more silver cards you get. In Filipino, we call it "pabebe" (hello fellow Pinoy players!). You can't choose a reply that a strong independent woman would choose, you'll only get 5 silver cards. Choose a reply that a clingy, damsel-in-distress girl would reply to the love interest's dialogue - it will definitely give you 10 silver cards.
- grades, or stars, depend on your influence. I used to wonder why i get golden retrievers (usually 1 star) when I was like 2-3M influnece, but now that I'm in 5M influence, I usually get those huskies (usually 3star). I assume the higher the influence, the higher the rank of your dogs will be.
- how much you feed your pets is crucial to determining their grade as well as influence of the dog (and how much influence it gives you back). what I do is only feed them rare dog food (100 satiety). trick is to get them to be full always. they are VERY full at 200/100. so that's 2 rare dog foods. but you can't feed them 3x to get 200/100 (for example, you fed them rare dog food which is 100 in satiety then feed them advanced dog food which is 40 in satiety, you will have 140/200, but you cannot feed another advanced dog food to make it 180/200). I got very high grades and influence if I always maintain 200/100 or close to that. If satiety drops to 99/100, I feed them another rare to make it 199/100. it makes increasing level of pets faster.
- also, i noticed if you got a higher influence (say, 5M or more), typical 1star dog can be 2star dog. I experienced that a golden retriever pup (usually 1star) had a 2star grade when I did what I mentioned above + high influence (and possibly, higher peerage level).
5. Rose mall lucky draw tips
- if you're thrifty and rely on silver cards, I suggest you accumulate them to 90 so you can use the lucky draw x10 which only costs 90 silver cards, as opposed to doing them each time you can afford 10 silver cards. (math: lucky draw x 1 = 10 silver cards; but lucky draw x 10 = 90 silver cards; you can save 10 silver cards on this).
- also, doing them lucky draw x10 can give you higher chances of getting NEW stuff. take note, CHANCES. so it depends on luck.
- same with using gold cards; it depends on luck. however, i wouldn't use more than 1 gold card in a day - i want to save up as much as possible, so i can have something for the magicarium task daily. if you're willing to spend more for top-ups, go ahead and skip this.
- i honestly spend diamonds on events that I AM SURE i get something. for example, Bounty Hunt and Juicebomb. I honestly don't like the Vampire Carnival as it depends on luck for the gacha thing - i only spend my free draws, thanks to my VIP level.
- if you are fond of doing top-ups, I suggest you do it during the Total Daily Top-up event. You can check that in rose bank. there's a period of time for accumulation and you can maximize your freebies everytime you top-up.
- aside from XP bag, I rely on the affairs section. If you select "no", it grants XP. I only say yes for those that give me coins and energy (as I need energy to continue the game). I recall that "school is out...." and "... wants to BUY flowers..." are the ones that give coins, then "...tea..." and "...doctor..." gives energies.
- of course, you have to use the appropriate tags for each date.
- if you can't get 3stars for each date, take a look at the rating details on the upper right. looks like a paper. it lists which tags that can contribute also, even if you don't have the required tags. for example, Garret's date at 4-6, the tags required were LUXURY, VINTAGE... after rating, you will look at the rating details which shows other rated tags: Unisex, Elegant, Cute, Summer. You can choose clothes that have these tags if you don't have clothes that have both tags - it can still give you rating and can help attain 3stars (or 2, or 1). (tbh I have a notebook with a list of these so i know which one to choose after consuming lipstick and so i know which clothes/acc/shoes to prioritize in tags exchange, or purchasing in diamonds)
- also, prioritize the first tag, then second. using the example above, each clothing/acc/shoes has their own tag. I will choose the clothes with LUXURY as first tag, if i don't have it, then i will choose clothes that have LUXURY as second tag.
- force (pink, fist) helps you lessen the energy needed for each sub-chapter. also helps defeat bosses.
- social (green, wine glass) helps you earn more coins. you might want to focus on this, for beginners.
- creation (violet, light bulb) and stamina (orange, dumbbell) are intermingled with each other. you need creation to produce more potion (tears icon) in order to claim energy (lightning icon). This is when you do research and replenish. some might not find the potion as important, but you have to be happy when you have more! because that means you can claim energy (to be used in playing each chapter and sub-chapters) and defeat bosses (for unfinished chapters that have no story yet). if you have lesser potion (tears icon in research) than energy (lightning icon in replenish), then that means you cannot claim energy. take a look at routines page to see what i mean.
- with these in mind, i would suggest to level them up evenly... though i would prioritize the social attribute, followed by force, then creation, then stamina.
that's all for now, my post is too long :D might post a part 2 ;) have fun playing!
