TOPIC | Ok Coli, the exhaustion is real.

I've been sitting on my chair for 3 hours straight grinding at many different venues. This is the longest period I've ever spent on coli. I got some festival chests, and super luckily: Both a Plague egg and a boss familiar at the same venue! [emoji=coatl star size=1] (I'm super happy, yet super exhausted... My back and my hands hurt. Guess I'm gonna take a break now [emoji=coatl sad size=1]) What is your coli-spent time record? Was it worth it or just many hours of pain and sorrow?

I leveled a dragon up from 1-25 in like, 8 straight hours once I think? And no, I don't think I even got an egg lol. Just coli apparel.

It wasn't totally straight, though. I did take a break every hour or so to run around and hydrate.

My longest Coli session couldn’t have been more than two hours straight. Didn’t get anything special. Most of that time was spent talking to a friend, trying to match voice clips with characters in Fire Emblem Heroes. It was fun, but I immediately went to bed afterwards :/

I tend to measure time in the coli in days... like I have to take a break from full-timing the coli every couple of weeks to avoid killing my left hand. (A day in the coli is one I spend over 3 hours of actual button mashing, let's say. I do do other stuff in my second window, so while I'll have the coli up and tabbed in all day, it's not necessarily straight grinding. More productive if I'm reading stuff in this window, less if I'm typing.)

I've been grinding actively since... oof. I don't think I've had a down week since the first week of January. It was Plague Profit Squad after that, then the Gala, then a week I could have used as a down week but ground anyway because money and then the GW expansion, then PPS again...

Physically it does get easier with practice, but it is bad for your back if you have a tendency to lean forward subconsciously - make sure to adjust your posture frequently and stretch. Also, hands. My hand has been on-off aching for a few days, but this is prime time and my goals aren't gonna complete themselves. I'll give it a rest next week. Don't follow my example.

As for the longest solid amount of time I spent coli-ing in total dedication - probably the eyepocalypse for sheer density. I managed 30+ hours in 3 days. Got over 200 scattersights, so it was totally worth it.

I think the longest I've ever gone in the coli is 5 hours straight.

i think i'd get like a little over 2 hours straight during notn?? i don't really remember much, i just remember feverishly checking the swipp stand every 2 hours and whether or not there was a strange chest listing determined whether or not i would be coli'ing for a while lol. it got to the point where i'd actually be relieved when there were no strange chest listings cause i could finally rest '^^

If I have Netflix/YouTube I can go for several hours, but because of little details like school and homework I typically don't manage more than an hour or two unless something major is going on

I've spent around a whole day in there at the most.

Be careful though all you coli fanatics! Rest your wrist, go for a walk, stretch, and stay hydrated!!
