Ingress | Recharge or Rebuild?

  • Many agents find themselves in an area with just a few portals, and no opposition. They struggle to level up.
    Are you one of them?
    Other videos on this channel will teach you how to efficiently field the portals you have - see my playlist on FanFields, for example. But once you've built your fields - should you let them decay, so you can rebuild them? Or should you recharge them for that sweet sweet recharge AP?
    The answer is "both, actually", and this video will show you how to figure out
    * the best possible way to recharge a single portal, to get the most AP
    * which portals in your fielding plan you should recharge, and which should be allowed to decay.
    I also made a spreadsheet you can use to help you plan all this out!

    I feel deeply impressed. You've invested a tremendous degree of investigation, and you then you very clearly explained complicated systems for our benefit.

    Hi guys! Just want to remember you that the 65 AP for any recharge will return 10 AP on April 31st

    Excellent work! Love your vids! Niantic should hire you as a consultant!

    I seriously wonder if anyone at Niantic has ever looked into the "recharge game"? But sarcastically... this is exactly the kind of exciting "emergent gameplay" that Johnny and Phil are talking about! Lol using a spread sheet and spending hours recharging. This is almost as groundbreaking in gameplay as the "inventory management game" . These mechanics incapusulate the core tenants of the "Niantic philosophy" so fully it's a wonder that Ingress has not grown past pogo in player population.

    Very interesting video. As a rural player, I will use this new knowledge for future AP maximization. So I combine targeted recharging with the anchor-portal's decay. Thank you, Agent 57Cell!

    Thank you so much for putting in the work for this research. I watch your videos avidly and often share with my local Ingress group. However I shared this video especially with a bunch of rural agents that I know to help them out. Thank you once again for an incredible in-depth research on recharging versus rebuilding! This is invaluable information!

    Hey, I may have an interesting concept for fielding- what if there is a natural barrier e.g. the sea, how do you maximise fields with portals on the beach in a line? My intuition says you can find an achor which is kind of the closest to the sea and can reach all portals and make a fanfield, that way even if only a few of the non-anchor portals link to each other, you can atleast connect them with a mainland portal later.

    Nice video, but you should calculate REAL human resources (include time for hacking/getting keys and recharging). Then recalcuate it and show how many AP per time unit (per 1 minute, per 10 minutes, per 1 hour etc)

  • @stefanstfn8670
    @stefanstfn8670 3 года назад +2

    This guy is lucky enough to get his 10 portals connected. After his rural area with low portal density will be covered by a BAF again he has no other opportunity than choosing the recharge option to gain AP. That's the sad Ingress reality...

    @nicolaplays1134 3 года назад +1

    This is fascinating! I once had a set of fanfields where I was letting the anchor decay, and then I would go back and re-throw it, following the system you explained in one of your fanfield videos. Eventually an opposing agent went through and smashed some of the fan portals, and the whole thing was a bit of a pain to get to, so I abandoned it at that point.
    But seeing your Ginger Sling agent rebuild from multiple decayed portals reminded me - is there a simple way to figure out the link order for rebuilding from a partially-smashed fanfield? Could I have potentially rescued my fanfield?

    • @57Cell
      @57Cell  3 года назад

      If you aren't layering fields, the link order doesn't matter at all.
      So you could have rebuilt the fan portals just by rethrowing their broken links in any order - you'd only worry about link order when you rethrow the anchor, but you have a method for that :)
      Hope that helps!

      @@57Cell It does, thank you! Next time the weather is nice enough for me to go out and set up more fields, I will see if I can tempt the other faction with a nice AP-rich target ;) and try it out.

    But what about just recharging only 2 Resonators(probably some extra 65Ap) too safe the mods but lose the fields and links? and maybe you should add the ap from mod deployed...

    • @57Cell
      @57Cell  2 года назад

      You lose the capture AP that way - but I should put some thought into this...

    How do you make the animations/simulations? They're really nice, and if it's some sort of program, I'd love to be able to map out fields for my area using the same method

      I used some software I wrote myself. There's an early version on GitHub somewhere
