Rebirth the instant you qualify. I wasted three hours at R0 trying to "max out" before my first rebirth. Dumb move. Your brainrots survive the reset, so the 2x multiplier applies immediately to everything in your base. Waiting is always wrong.
The math is brutal. At R4 you earn 16x. At R5 you earn 32x. If you can hit R5 requirements, staying at R4 means earning half of what you could be making. The rebuild time is always shorter than the income you sacrifice.
Speed Requirements
| Rebirth | Speed | Total Multiplier |
|---|---|---|
| R1 | 50 | 2x |
| R2 | 75 | 4x |
| R3 | 100 | 8x |
| R4 | 125 | 16x |
| R5 | 150 | 32x |
| R6 | 175 | 64x |
| R7 | 200 | 128x |
| R8 | 250 | 256x |
| R9 | 300 | 512x |
| R10 | 400 | 1024x |
Multipliers stack multiplicatively. R5 is 2×2×2×2×2 = 32x, not 2+2+2+2+2 = 10x. This is why early rebirths matter so much.
What Survives
Kept: All brainrots, base slots, upgrade levels, mutations, group rewards.
Reset: Speed stat, current cash.
Your income-generating assets stay intact. Only mobility resets.
The Waiting Trap
Here's the math that proves waiting is wrong:
R3 player at 120 Speed:
Option A: Grind to 125, then rebirth
- 20 minutes at 8x earnings
Option B: Rebirth at 100, rebuild to 125
- 15 minutes at 16x earnings
Option B wins by 50%. The rebuild is always faster because your multiplier is higher.
Rebuild Speed
Your brainrots keep generating income during rebuild. Higher rebirth = faster recovery.
R1-R3: 15-30 minutes to next threshold
R4-R6: 10-20 minutes
R7+: Under 10 minutes
By R8, you're buying speed upgrades faster than you can click. Cash isn't the bottleneck anymore.
Power Spikes
R3 (8x): Commons become worthless. Stop collecting them.
R5 (32x): Mid-game breakpoint. Secrets become your target.
R7 (128x): Late-game. Only Celestials matter.
R10 (1024x): Endgame. Your base prints trillions. Focus shifts to mutation hunting.
Event Timing
Before Admin Abuse: Don't rebirth within 24 hours of Saturday. You want max speed for rare spawns.
During events: Never rebirth. Farm instead. Event spawns are too valuable.
After events: Rebirth immediately if you hit a threshold.
Common Mistakes
"I'll rebirth after I fill my base." Your base is already full. Brainrots carry over. Rebirth now.
"I need to upgrade first." Upgrades survive. The multiplier makes future upgrades cheaper. Rebirth now.
"I'm close to the next zone." You'll reach it faster with the higher multiplier. Rebirth now.
FAQ
Can I rebirth during a tsunami? Yes. Menu works anytime.
Do mutations survive? Yes.
Should I rebirth with empty base? No. Fill slots first. Multiplying zero is still zero.
