[QUOTE="EldarOfSuburbia, post: 182017, member: 4106"] A few of the basic settings, pulled from the default Operator menu: - Light EB at 12 and 60 miles - Special gives nothing (actually it's still set to Credit) - Replay gives nothing (again still set to Credit) - Max EBs = 4. I think this is 4 per game, not per ball in play. Possible EBs are: the aforementioned @ 12 and 60 miles, the first 6x Bonus (obtained by locking a ball 5 times), Jackpot 1.5M+EB (awards EB, doesn't light EB), 3x1 Million shots in Quick Multiball (again awards instead of lights; must start Quick MB at 3 least times, since you can only score the 1M shot once per Quick MB). Only the Jackpot EB is "repeatable" but given the hard limit on EBs you'd be hard-pressed to score this more than once before collecting three others. Once you've gone through enough MBs that you need to light Zones 1-9 in order for each Lock, you're better off just looping ramps. If you miss and get the ball on the right flipper Zone 5->Fault Ramp is a good move to light another Zone and add to your bonus, though I think Fault Trips max out at some value - I've gone to 61 so far. Start Multiball if and when you can, a Jackpot is usually worth it, if only to break the monotony of looping ramps. [/QUOTE]
