Maximizing Your Income
1. Keep Every Slot Filled
- Empty slots earn nothing
- Always have 5 pets placed
- Use “Place Best” to auto-assign top earners
2. Level Up Your Pets
- Pets gain EXP while placed
- Higher level = higher income
- Age also increases (common: 14, 18)
3. Mutate High Earners
- Mutations boost stats
- A mutated B-tier can out-earn unmutated A-tier
- Focus mutations on pets you plan to keep
4. Rebirth for More Slots
- Each Rebirth adds +1 pet slot
- More slots = more income
- Rebirth also doubles base income
5. Use Index Milestones
- Index pays cash for discoveries
- $15K at 8 discoveries (example)
- Register new pets before selling
