Starter route
Drain the Lake Beginner Guide
Use this as a clean first-session route. The goal is to build a fast token loop before chasing deeper sections or the lost phone objective.
Fill
Start by timing how long it takes to fill your current bucket.
Drain
Return to the drain point and record tokens earned per completed loop.
Upgrade
Spend early tokens on the bottleneck: capacity if trips are too frequent, collection if filling is slow.
Measure
Use the calculator to compare current-loop tokens per hour against a deeper route.
Go deeper
Push depth only when the longer route improves total tokens per hour.
Find the phone
Save late objective hunting for after your Skill Tree makes deep runs comfortable.
