01Rules that bite
Droids must be active
Ticking the Droidex doesn’t count. The required droids have to be placed in your base — parking them in the rest area (lounge) is fine, they don’t have to be working.
Higher variant always counts
A gate asking for Gold is satisfied by Diamond, Rainbow, or Beskar. Get one Beskar of a repeat droid (R7, Mono-WLKR, B2-RP, Mecha-Droid) and you never chase it again.
Rebirth the moment you qualify
There’s no “should I wait” math — every rebirth multiplies credit income and opens base slots. Holding gains nothing. Plan droid upgrades, not timing.
Credits reset, the curve doesn’t
Each rebirth wipes your credits but the per-level credit cost is fixed. Slots stop unlocking after Rebirth 16 — from 17 up, rebirths are pure income multiplier.
02Super Rebirth
The prestige layer above the rebirth ladder — the station behind the Cantina. A normal rebirth resets your factory; a Super Rebirth resets your entire run for two permanent rewards: a stacking credit bonus and Nova Crystals.
Unlock
Rebirth 12 reached, and
at least one Rainbow Legendary droid owned.
Each Super Rebirth also advances you to the next requirement path (see §04).
Permanent payoff (scales with pop level)
Nova Crystals → the Nova Shop (§06).
Credit multiplier = 2× your crystal count, as a % (R12 = +22%, R23 = +242%).
XP multiplier = 10× your crystal count (R12 = +110%, R23 = +1210%).
All three stack permanently across every Super Rebirth — bigger pops compound.
Reset
Base, droids, credits, rebirth rank, pickaxe level, blueprints, and Upgrade Chips. Spend chips, blueprints, and credits before you pop — convert them into things that persist.
Keep
Droidex, Droidsmith level, cosmetics, Flawless unlocks, and Iconic droid unlocks (repurchasable at the Iconic vendor for credits).
03Nova Crystal payouts & when to pop
When to Super Rebirth: push to Rebirth 23
Crystals, the credit multiplier, and the XP multiplier all scale with your rebirth level at pop, and the curve is exponential — R23 is the best return on time. Popping at R12 the second you unlock gives about 1/11th of everything a R23 pop does.
It snowballs: each Super Rebirth's credit multiplier is permanent, so your next climb to R23 is faster than the last. The first push is the slow one — after that, aim for R23 every time. Only pop early if you specifically want to advance the requirement path (§04).
Each pop pays Nova Crystals plus a permanent credit and XP multiplier, all set by your rebirth level when you reset. Deeper always wins; the table is the full curve.

Known glitchCommunity reports a bug paying out half the intended amounts. If you’re sitting on a deep rebirth rank and can wait, holding until it’s confirmed fixed protects your biggest run. Outside of popping, the hard daily challenge pays 1 Nova Crystal/day — the only non-pop source.
04The four cycling paths
Since the Super Rebirth update, rebirth requirements cycle through four paths, advancing one per Super Rebirth: 1 → 2 → 3 → 4, then back to 1.
Credit cost per level is identical on every path. Rebirth 23 always costs 6T — only the gating droids change with how many Super Rebirths you’ve done.
Path 1 (below) is the first run — the original ladder.
Path 2 puts Path 1’s shelf-sitters to work (Mouse, Gonk, ID10, NAV-EX, VECT-Arm, R4…).
Paths 3 & 4 lean harder on early Rares (R3, R5, R8, B1 Battle) before all four converge on the same Legendary–Beskar endgame.
You can’t pre-farm a path — droids reset on pop. Knowing the next path just tells you which Sandcrawler spawns to keep instead of selling on the climb back.

Reading it: levels 1–4 are free momentum; 5–8 introduce Diamond gates (start farming Upgrade Chips); level 9 is the first wall (Groundmech at Rainbow); 12+ is the Legendary game; 21–23 is all Beskar at 3T / 4.5T / 6T.
06Nova Shop
Behind the Cantina, next to the Super Rebirth station. Most useful upgrades cost just 1–25 crystals (a single Rebirth 16+ pop funds several). Effects marked “~” are inferred from the upgrade name, not yet read from in-game tooltips.
Gem priority — what to buy first
Daily quest crystal — every login. It's free and can't be banked, so a missed day is a crystal gone.
Iconic Droids the moment they appear (BB-8, Mister Bones, DJ R-3X…) — limited-time, unique, and now power-scaled above Beskar Legendaries for Astromech / World missions. BB-8 is currently the single best mission droid.
Workshop quality-of-life — Collect All, Lounge Slot, Rebirth Droid Alert. These save real time every session, which compounds into faster R23 climbs.
Core stat / earning upgrades — Credits boost first, then Damage, then Health & Movement Speed.
Flawless Charm (500) — the long-term sink; only once everything above is handled.
Never cosmetics until you're swimming in crystals — paint and accessories do nothing for production.

Most upgrades have several stackable ranks (the ×N in the tables). Plan on many Super Rebirths — pick one or two targets per run instead of spreading crystals thin.

Super Rebirth multipliers and Nova Shop priority per NeonLightsMedia (Jun 2026); requirements rebalanced May 12, 2026; Super Rebirth added v1.16 (Jun 9, 2026); Iconic Droids power-scaled above Beskar for missions in a later June patch. Some Nova Shop effects and Paths 3–4 are still being confirmed by the community.
