How to use this Dig Clean tool
Answer honestly based on your last session, not your wishlist. Then open Detector Tier List, Shovel Tier List, or Spray Bottle Tier List and Progression.
Dig Clean upgrade theory (Update 1)
Default rare-hunting order: detector → shovel → spray. Exceptions: hard-stops mean shovel now; dirty backlog means spray now. Museum goals (Museum) do not override a broken loop. Timed codes (Active Codes) never replace permanent gear — see Luck Stacking.
Dig Clean related tools and guides
Re-run this Dig Clean tool after every major purchase and before redeeming SECRET10.
Dig Clean upgrade priority worked example
Session A: commons forever → detector. Session B: backpack fills fast but stays dirty → spray. Session C: cleaning idle while digs hard-stop → shovel. Session D: Sphinx ready but still on Rusty → detector before boat fare cosmetics.
Dig Clean upgrade priority after codes
Redeemed Luck from codes does not change symptom logic — still tick boxes based on feel. Do not buy random Shop flex while a 10-minute timer burns.
Dig Clean upgrade priority and islands
Before Cove or Sphinx travel, rerun the tool. Island dirt may expose shovel lag; island Luck makes weak detectors feel even worse.
Dig Clean upgrade mistakes the tool catches
Players buy two shovels while ignoring detectors, then wonder why Omega never shows. Symptom checkboxes surface Luck neglect before you waste another SECRET10.
