== Advanced Summary (Stuck Progression) ==
If you feel stuck in ZZ+, shift from pure push runs into setup runs that improve worker scaling.

=== 1) Reset Your Progression Loop ===
* Backtrack earlier cups and clear easy [[Milestones]].
* Reinvest milestone rewards into:
** Gem damage increase upgrades
** Worker progression (especially EXP worker)

=== 2) Damage Scaling Priority ===
Late game, multiplier stacking outperforms flat base damage in most high speed-divider setups.

Best stack:
* Damage Increase
* Damage Executable
* Speed Divider

=== 3) EXP Worker Optimization Run ===
Use a dedicated run to raise your EXP worker `/s` high score.

Recommended mechanics:
* 5s wave timer
* Max enemy movement speed
* Higher enemy count/spawn pressure

Why:
* More kill throughput on screen = higher EXP/s baseline

Execution tips:
* Use EXP ad buff during the run
* Near peak, equip 5 red EXP executables
* Avoid Shockwave arsenal during EXP score setup (can disrupt consistency)

=== 4) Coin Worker Optimization Run ===
Coin worker min-maxing is more setup-heavy.

Recommended approach:
* Run the highest cup you can safely survive for ~200+ waves
* Raise modules to at least 2x (especially coin module)
* Slow enemies with mechanics when needed for control
* When kill speed falls off, wait for extractor timing
* Activate coin executables during extractor window
** Typical setup: 5 coin executables
** Safer setup: 4 coin + 1 enemy-speed executable

Extra note:
* If coin bonus procs during extractor + executable window, `/s` can spike much higher (rare).

=== 5) Executable Management ===
After setting worker high scores:
* Unequip red executables
* Save them for the next setup run

=== 6) Final Takeaway ===
Workers remain one of the strongest long-term scaling tools, even after nerfs.

For ZZ+ progression:
* Use separate runs for EXP worker and Coin worker optimization
* Treat worker baseline growth as your bridge to final zones
* Combine mechanics + executables + controlled pacing for best results
