On Twitter, @MINHxDYNASTY suggests not playing and only staking if you have less than $100k, which you'd use to upgrade to Level 10 and have a constant rotation of 22 Basic seeds.

Is this the general consensus? Am I just burning money with rolls of 5-8 pico seeds?

can you walk me through the thought process here?

you’re playing for XP, not xYield APR imo.

The thought process is that without harvest bonuses, chests and other perks from the higher level valleys, you're burning too much YIELD to gain XP. Likewise once you have Level 10 or 15, you need to max farming basic or premium seeds.

It comes down to how much the Gold we get from XP is worth.

I have 1558 XP. Would I have been better off just staking the YIELD I've been using to play? The YIELD I lose means I don't get any token appreciation of staking yield on it. It's an opportunity cost and potentially a big one.

I hadn't heard that locked yield might be useable for valley levelling. Do you remember where you saw that? That would change the calculations rather drastically in favour of farming I think. I have 1320 locked YIELD, but don't really expect to get access to much of it.

but it’s only taking into account phase i of the game 

you need level 3 to mint an adventurer in phase two, but you can use locked yield for that iirc
