User blog:Akrie/Coin & Jelly Scale and How to Best Use Them

There are a couple of pets in the game that can give you a huge amount of coins or points: Coin Scale and Jelly Scale, respectively.

The Coin Scale works this way: For every 1,875 points or so, the Coin Scale will exchange that for one coin. The maximum he can convert is 300,000 points for 160 coins. At max rank it will convert every 4 seconds.

The Jelly Scale works the opposite way compared to the Coin Scale. The Jelly Scale requires coins instead. You get 1,905 points for each coin converted but the maximum it can convert is 210 coins for 400,000 points. At max rank it will convert every 4 seconds.

If you set it up properly, you can gather a lot of coins or points in a short amount of time.

The "breadwinner" Cookie for using the Scales effectively is Cheesecake Cookie, mainly through her Coin Firework Parties ability. Whenever she collects enough Invitation Jellies (they look like floating envelopes), she will trigger her power which will give you a lot of coins. That is where you will get the most coins or points. Try to get her to level 8 so she can use her Power+ ability for a free Coin Firework Party during the run.

There are a couple of treasures that will work perfectly, even if you're hunting for coins or points. They are Stuffed Elephant Money Box and Random Colored Jelly Scrub. They give bonus points for coins you collect. The former gives more points but is harder to find, while the latter, while giving less points, can just simply be obtained by getting the Glitter Ball pet to level 8 and evolving its treasure. They work perfectly because it gives you more points for Coin Scale to convert and further increases the points you gain if you go down the Jelly Scale road. If you have two copies of the treasure, great! Even better if one (or both) of them are Blessed. The last treasure slot should, obviously, have a Magnetic Aura effect such as Angel Cookie's Holy Feather to make it easier for you to collect jellies and coins.

For simplicity's sake, let's give Stuffed Elephant Money Box and Random Colored Jelly Scrub their abbervations: SEMB and RCJS.

If you want to gather Coins:

This one is actually very simple. ANYTHING you collect in the run will give you points and the Coin Scale will convert it into coins. It's a good idea to use Buttercream Choco Cookie as a relay, because he will add a 25% Coin bonus at the end of the run. Be sure to equip either a SEMB or RCJS (or both!). Try to make it so you get the Double Coins Random Boost, but it is not a game breaker if you don't. Even a 25% Slower Energy Drain helps.

Do the run normally. Be sure to give more attention to collecting coins during the run. If you have to choose between bear jellies or coins, pick the latter!

When Cheesecake Cookie has run out of Energy, switch to Buttercream Choco Cookie and continue running. By the time you may have reached to the point where there are just simple bear jellies during the run, so it's a good idea to let the Coin Scale convert the last remaining points before you fall off to end the run. You CAN continue running, but the Coin Scale will only be able to convert a few coins at a time, so it's your call.

If you set it up properly, you will gain a lot of coins. My personal record was 50,000 or so coins with Double Coins. It could be much higher if I had another SEMB or RCJS.

If you want to gather Points:

This one is trickier. You WILL eventually run out of coins for your Jelly Scale to convert rendering it useless. Cheesecake Cookie can't run forever and coins will become increasingly sparse as you continue running.

As usual, use Cheesecake Cookie and Jelly Scale. As your relay, it is essentially up to you as Buttercream Choco Cookie's 25% Coin bonus will not work. Prophet Cookie is a good Cookie to use as his Second Sight will usually give you chances to obtain more coins. Alchemist Cookie will be able to generate more coins with her Alchemy. Cheerleader Cookie's Squad Support will drop coins for your Cookie to collect. Carol Cookie can use her Magic Songs to create coins. Adventurer Cookie will sometimes run into coins during his Hidden Ruins Exploration.

For treasures, use one with Magnetic Aura and use either SEMB or RCJS (or both). Try to get the 15% Point Bonus Random Boost. 25% Slower Energy Drain also works.

Do your run normally, and try to collect coins as usual. When Cheesecake Cookie runs out of Energy, continue the run. If you are using Alchemist Cookie, try to make it so her Alchemy will generate coins. If you're using Carol Cookie, have her focus on Song of Abundance. Just keep running as far as you can, there's no need to end the run early - you will still be generating points even if coins are sparse.

At the end you should have a lot of points especially so if you have the 15% Point Bonus random boost.

My record was 62,000,000 or so with the 15% Point Bonus random boost. Again, it could potentially be higher if I had another SEMB or RCJS.

I hope this has helped all of you that wants to maximize the benefit of the scales!
