Pearls and Oysters

== Oysters and Pearls ==
Oysters are the second tab under the Drowners Faction, and are unlocked (...TBC...) Once unlocked, they stay accessible immediately after a reset.
There are FIVE types of Pearl which can be gained from your Deep Oyster.
* Red Pearl (first)
* Blue Pearl
* Yellow Pearl
* Sea Pearl
* Deep Pearl
At first each requires manual clicking, but exchange 5 Pearls and you can automate that type.
Increasing your chance to create a Pearl is a wise plan - 100% chance guarantees you one more pearl, and percentages over 100% will give more than one. Additionally, each increase in 10% for Blue Pearls and above gives a 50% boost for the next-lowest type.
Pearls can be exchanged forward on a 100:1 ratio for the next-higher level.
===== MAXIMUM CHANCE TO COLLECT PEARLS =====
* The chance for creating red pearls caps at 1.23e94% (including max bonus from blue pearls)
* The chance for creating blue pearls caps at 1.22e94% (including max bonus from yellow pearls)
* The chance for creating yellow pearls caps at 1.22e94% (including max bonus from sea pearls)
* The chance for creating sea pearls caps at 1.22e94% (including max bonus from deep pearls)
* The chance for creating deep pearls caps at 6e3%.
=== COLLECT PEARLS ===
Additionally, starting at 1,000 and incrementing in tens, you can "Collect Pearls" and trade them for permanent bonuses. Each type of Pearl gives a different bonus, and increasing levels give a percentage increase, decreasing in size for the first three, and a constant 10% bonus for Sea Pearl's bonus. The bonus caps at Level 20.
* Red pearls boosts the Demons faction
* Blue pearls boost the Undead faction
* Yellow pearls boost the Drowners faction 
* Sea pearls give an additional 10% to all other pearls, and caps at 200%
* Deep Pearls boost the Warlocks faction, which requires Dark Mana to unlock 
=== STRATEGY ===
Calculate which pearl type is doing the best, and focus on those. The 50% bonus for the lower level means that eventually your Red Pearls will be the best producers and simply exchanging them is optimal.
Additional Deep Oysters can be purchased for Raw Mana, and they also survive resets (boiler explosions)
