Reincarnation

**In-game description:**
*"The Reincarnation process will reset all your stats, your excavations and remove all your gems. You will however keep your trophies and gain a new free upgrade, Reincarnation Power, unlocked immediately upon starting a new run. This upgrade will grant different bonuses based on the amount of times you have reincarnated and will persist through subsequent abdications. Certain reincarnations will also unlock new unique and very powerful features."*

**Reincarnation** was introduced in the *Underworld Expansion* (v1.2). it's a second kind of soft reset where players can trade in all of their gems and have most of their stats reset for other bonuses.

## Requirement, Cost, and User Interface

Reincarnation can only be performed for the first time when the user reaches 1 Oc (1E27) **gems**. Each subsequent reincarnation costs 1,000 times more gems.

When reincarnation becomes available, the "???" button on the Upgrades panel (to the right of the Abdication button) changes to a "Reincarnation" button.

## Reincarnation Power

When you reincarnate for the first time, you will automatically be awarded the

Power upgrade. It is this upgrade that enables all the powerful perks. Hovering over it will reveal all the details about your perks.

## Progress Agenda (Goals)

Listed below are all the main progress systems and perks that you can get in Realm Grinder, excluding trophies, upgrades and Artifacts. The table also shows when, at which reincarnation level, which ones becomes available. All items require to be unlocked, except for the Spiritual Surge Spell, which is automatically granted upon reaching R14.

Also, try to get all the Faction Spell upgrades, Trophies and Artifacts you can along the way.

## Guidelines (partially outdated)

There are many paths you can take to progress, there is no "one correct path". Each player finds his/her own path, adapted to his/her play-style and personal progress. Trying to find your own path is the best way to learn and understand each faction.

The below is an example guideline but it is encourage to step out and try all the factions, note down which factions work best at which gem amounts and create your own progress path.

 R**1-3** | 0 gems
 ~1 T (1E12) gems
 ~100 Qi (1E20) gems
 R**3-12** | 1 No (1E30) gems
 R**13-15** | 1 Vg (1E63) gems
* Optimize your runs by doing build-ups using special builds. (eg: Run "*Foreplay*" or "*Everything is Awesome*" merc builds to optimize your click total or your Faceless Heritage.)
* Once you reach R14 and have 6k+ mana, you can start to include Spiritual Surge in your combo casts. Note that there is not much benefit in solo-casting it or using it below 6k mana.
 R**16+** | 1 Tvg (1E72) gems

## V4 overall guide

most of the above guides aren't up to date.

musicfamily is more up to date. Be aware that this guide might not be optimal since it was designed for V4.0.0 and not V4.2. You aren't forced to follow those guide (the best path isn't the most optimal but the one where you find the most fun). For example if you prefer a more idle style I will recommend you to get the autocasting series as soon as you can (this allow you to not manually click spell and let the game be entirely idle).

1. ↑ *Approaching R40, quantities in the game may behave strangely if any of the used values exceed the number 179.7 Uc (1.797E308) because the computer can no longer store their values. This may not break your game in a noticeable way, but in general, values that overflow will get set to 0. If this happens, it will not prevent you from ascending, as gems cannot overflow before the gold does, but an overflow of gold will prevent you from any further gem gain.*
