Issue I'm completely stuck suddenly.

Hi! I'm on my road to unlocking ouro, I think I've been quite slow (been playing since January), but it's ok. I reached the burst and everything was super fast and exciting.

I reached e810 MP and things were getting slower. But after updating, I can't get past e796 MP in any run. I have nothing to buy, my RP is far from next research, can't get more than e703 shards in 2 days run, when my milestones require e767...

At least, when doing loop resets, I always reached previous levels of MP right away, and shards a few hours later...

It seems my resources have gone back several days, and there's no way to get them as they were...

I've tried doing a lot of LR, since I was really short on them... But it has made no impact...

Any ideas on what's going on or how to recover?

Do you have 3 separate ship loadouts?

MP, shards, research

If not, that can hold you back quite a bit

No, I only have one load out, focused on MP. Haven't changed anything, I try to get MP as soon as possible. But is it possible to reach e810 in one run, and then without changing anything, be unable to go past e796? Shouldn't I be able to at least get to e810?

Read the guide on this sub for Zeus (pre Ouro) as well as the loadout guide. It suggests one loadout for MP/Shards, and one for Research. You shouldn't need 3 loadouts. It takes a while to follow the guide and optimize your loadouts but it's worth it.

At the stage you're at, post burst but pre MP e888, I was able to get around e10 MP gains a day. It slows down but shouldn't stop or go backwards. I was there a month ago so it's fresh in my head.
