When the points stop spawning, just roll and RTS asap. You'll know if you got it if the resist skill isn't in your skill tree.

Apparently this wasn't logged at any point so might as well throw it here.

Just dropping this off from Discord.

Buying Nodes does not increase prices for the diamond and circle skills. Diamond skills cost less than Circles. Buying a Diamond skill doesn't increase the Circle's price, and vice-versa. Buying either of the above doesn't increase node prices.

Since they share the same "Type." Basic nodes increases other basics. Diamonds increases diamonds. Circles increases circles. But none increases the other types. And crit% and damage are diamonds, which costs considerably less than circles.

If you happen to buy 3 Resist Skills before buying Bullet Eraser, tha's 1500 more to it's cost. ~3k to buy. Ideally, to go through the grid, you'd want to go to diamonds first. Taking the least nodes path possible. So if you focus getting circles you WILL run out of shards, and fast. If you focus nodes (like extra damage/armor nodes) you can increase 1 node (3-parts) cost to be higher than a diamond's cost.

This is such a balanced leveling tree, but it's also a nightmare.
