Editing Mint Overhaul (section)

=== 3. Two new Mint upgrades ===

To unlock these fuel perks you first research the new Work Coupling node, then buy one or both of two new Mint upgrades:

* <strong>Work Amplifier</strong> raises how much a fueled Mint can boost your Work payout. Higher tiers mean a bigger ceiling.
* <strong>Work Cooldown Destroyer</strong> raises the chance that a Work action cuts your cooldown short. Higher tiers mean a better chance.

Researching alone does not give you the boost. You need to buy the upgrades to feel the effect, so you can choose to lean into raw payout, faster actions, or both.

One thing worth knowing about the <strong>Work Amplifier</strong>: buying tiers raises the <em>ceiling</em>, but reaching the very top of that ceiling takes more than the upgrade. Your boost grows with how much you have built and how high your <strong>Ascension tier</strong> climbs, so the biggest multipliers are a long term goal you grow into, not something you can buy outright. That keeps the top end rewarding for players who keep building and ascending.
