Talk:Kobold Island: Short Cuts

Optimum build path

 * Since you have a time limit of 600 seconds (10 minutes), there is only 31 seconds of leeway to erect the first 4 small extractors and for delays on other upgrades/builds.
 * With 10 builds/upgrades to be done you get a maximum of two seconds of leeway. (It is impossible to get all four small running in the first second.) Therefore, you need to have the text box menu open and be ready to click when the shards come in, so if your job starts at a small extractor do not go for an alter/kobold or you will lose the 6 stars.

* Time is in seconds, and all fractions of a second have been rounded up.

Jobs: Note: If a mob of zombies (drowned) spawn on an extractor, then kite them (don't kill); it's far easier.
 * Small 1 - build small extractor one (cover for Small 2 when that position is left)
 * Small 2 - build small extractor two (change job to Large 1, the FIRST Large built)
 * Small 3 - build small extractor three
 * Small 4 - build small extractor four
 * Idol S/W - get the 2 idols south / southwest, jump portals + then be ready to start Large 2 (second large built)
 * Idol N - get the four idols in the north, jump portals + then start Large 3 (3rd and final Large built)
 * END - when the 2 min timer is low enough for your extractor to definitely survive and if you have a portal next to you start jumping
