Key takeaways
- ✓Do not sell your first Ancient Tech Point
- ✓Do not over-farm Lamball
- ✓Do not skip the Cake early
Do not sell your first Ancient Tech Point
You'll need it for the Palbox upgrade. Selling deletes progression pathing.
Do not over-farm Lamball
You need three, not thirty. Extra Lamballs eat food and stall your Ranch throughput.
Do not skip the Cake early
Delaying Cake past Level 19 delays every meta breed — start the milk loop the moment you can.
