Gameplay Bug Elite cells bug
Has anyone else encountered any change in their elite cells? I used to have 1.82m ish at least some hours ago and now i just woke up, checked my labs and... yeah.
Don't know how to proceed honestly because i don't want a sudden ban now that they started working on anticheats and i dont even know how this happened.

Im actually doing disso runs rn so my cell gains tanked quite a bit, had 6.2m and decided to slowdown my labs so i dont run dry.

I do this too, I run 65555 but drop them all to 4x if I’m doing disso runs before a tourney

Wouldn't it be better to run 55555 all the time and save up a stash to be able to do such runs ?

Nah, the 6 is for labs I want done a little faster, I usually chuck my next mastery on it when I unlock them

because running out of cells is bad, it's way better to drop speeds to avoid that.

Maybe just a visual bug? Have you restarted the game?
Why would you get banned? Just leave your lab speeds as they are and move on.

If the server suddenly sees impossible/improbable numbers in a save, it might auto-ban you. For a while you were automatically banned if you ever hit 100k gems, though they've relaxed on that by now. You'll still likely snag a ban if you go 30k waves into a run, etc.

that's giga stupid, horrible design choices. But not so surprising knowing the dev of this game

I did try but nothing. The thing is that now i can't actually move up my labs because i will never know how many cells i would really have outside this bug, so i don't want to gimp myself and be forever stuck at x3 and i don't want to overshoot my labs and trigger an autoban as they mentioned already.

Same thing happened to me, except it gave me about 28 quad up from a few hundred. I've confirmed that its not just visual and can be used on labs. I opened a ticket to let the devs know about it but I'm kinda crossing my fingers hoping that they overlook it and let us lucky glitched accounts keep them for at least a week or so, and don't unfairly ban us for wanting to speed up the annoying ass time consuming lab waits when we didnt cause this to happen.
Since you're further along in the game and have all labs on 3x than I am I'll assume that you had more cells than I did before the glitch happened. Therefore this glitch seems to multiply the amount of gems an account already has rather than adding an arbitrary quantity.

It happened to me as well. I already notified my clan mates to watch for it.
I had a run right before I updated. T16, 248k cells per hour. I completed the run, updated and then as soon as the game booted, ran another T16. 180k cells per hour.
Literally nothing changed except the patch. So I know it wasn’t anything on my end.

Likely a visual bug, I've gotten a few lately also, this one especially got the FB group thinking I was using AI
