Gear gives me 20% gold interest, so I save it up. At first spend all my nitra, so as not to be slowed down when I get pickled nitra. Armor upgrades give me speed (and luck), so I get all the movement speed and armor upgrades I can, pretty much, from leveling up. Up until about 4k gold I only buy armor and movement speed upgrades at the store, then I start spending gold for other good upgrades. At 7k gold my gold interest is enough that I buy anything I can with gold, until I have less than 7k gold. Often that is when I'd have to pay 211 gold to reroll. Whenever I get pickled nitra, I keep my movement speed at above 200% at the end of a store shopping spree, and spend the rest of the nitra. That lets me run around and mine quick enough to get all the resources as well as (barely) outrun the monsters on level 25+.

At the end of this run I had well over a thousand nitra at 200% movement speed. Usually die at about level 26-27, and at the end of this run my poor 5700x/rx6600 had a hard time keeping up with all the creepy crawlies on the screen.

Just got back into playing the game after a long break and I noticed that the fire effect looks different in 1.0, it's almost completely removed and now you just get a red glow below the enemies instead of the enemies being actually set on fire.

For instance I have an old video and the fire effect looked like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHvBq1yxjFo, you see how the enemies are actually set on fire.

Here's how it looks now: https://streamable.com/wzefsj, there is barely any fire effect on enemies, only way to know is by looking below their bodies for the red glow.
