Infinity is a phase of the game which opens up at Military Tier 12. Infinity begins when the player reaches Era 100B in endless mode on any difficulty of a given region.

Early Infinity
Upon first entering Infinity, and subsequently being obliterated by the overpowered enemies, you will obtain 2 new Modules that are vital to progression in Infinity phase, Infinity Foundation and Infinity Attack. The former prevents your untimely demise to the hands of Infinity enemies, and the latter allows you to meaningfully damage them. Upon Tiering up, you will gain access to the Infinity Tab in the second floor of the Workshop, which just like Era, contains everything you need to start progressing through Infinity.
Infinity Enemies & Modules
For this section we should understand some new terminology. All damage until now can be categorised as Era damage. This includes the damage we do as well as the damage we take. When you progress into Infinity 1, all newly spawned enemies will gain a staggering 100QiD (1e50) resistance to Era damage, and deal Infinity damage, which without Infinity Foundation, will kill you instantly. Enemies get dramatically increased stats for each Infinity wave, as well as mimicking your equipped modules! Enemies cannot copy Special modules, but they can copy any other module, including the new Infinity Tier modules! The number of modules that enemies can mimic is equal to 1+Log10(Current Infinity), meaning every new digit in your current Infinity wave grants the enemies to mimic an additional module. However, killing Infinity enemies will grant you a new resource: Module Fragments. These are used all over the Infinity Workshop tab, so getting as many as you can is vital to your progress.
Because of how powerful your own modules are against you, the name of the game now is to make a blueprint that can handle your own modules, and actually kill Infinity enemies. Here are some helpful tips to get you started:
- Don't overthink things. Infinity enemies are not as strong as they appear to be. While they heavily resist Era damage, they are not immune to it, so if you get enough damage multipliers, you can still damage Infinity enemies with Era damage. Try out some new combinations of modules to see if you can break through their resistance.
- Try to limit your module usage. Since Infinity enemies can mimic any of your non-Special modules, modules that might seem harmless could actually become very dangerous in the hands of enemies, so make sure to think about what you add to your blueprint.
- Don't be afraid to be creative. Some specific modules might actually be beneficial for you if enemies copy it! Innovation is key to progressing here, so turning enemies' massive advantage against them is something to consider.
- And finally, Remember it is okay if you are constantly dying at the beginning. Much like Era, you'll need to redevelop your entire strategy to combat against the new enemies. Don't get frustrated over this. Dr. Cubical is rooting for you! If you're having trouble, don't be afraid to check out the official Discord Server.

Infinity Stones
The Infinity Stones are a set of extremely powerful items that provide game-changing effects, and are the main focus of this phase. Your main objective is to charge each infinity stone, which simply takes time. When first accessing one of the stones, the times to charge it will be so large it is essentially impossible. However, these progress bars can be sped up in two ways: Increasing your infinity high scores for the provided regions, and purchasing Exotic Refinements (unlocked at MT13). Both are equally important, and Exotic Refinements are much more noticeable at lower infinities. They are permanent upgrades, meaning they are both worthwhile investments.
Collecting and Unlocking Stones
With the exception of Neutral being unlocked at Era 1M, Infinity stones are collected by going to its respective region and killing a disabled enemy of that element while being at Infinity 1 or higher. The region where each element is found is very intuitive and I recommend guessing yourself. See Regions for more information.

Once they're collected they will show up in the infinity board with some conditions before you can upgrade them, these conditions only need to be met once and the stones unlocked forever. All stones have the conditions of prestiging their respective laboratory experiments 3 times and have 50 essence in the 3rd tab of the Era Workshop.

Charging Stones
To charge a stone you will need to get a base value of 1 trillion (1e12) elemental energy, which can be reduced by purchasing the "Charge Required" exotic refinement. To get energy you have to wait for the top bar (charge) of the chosen stone to fill up, each time it fills you will get an amount of elemental energy which can be boosted by the bottom bar (production), the time it takes to charge can be reduced by the middle bar (speed) the base time it takes for a bar to fill is equal to 8760 hours/sum of all your infinity highscores on the specific region for that bar, region depends on the stone and the bar.
There are 7 exotic refinements:
| Exotic Refinements |
|---|
|
Speed bonus and production bonus increase how much each fill of production and speed bar boosts the charge bar, but are linear in their scaling which makes them really bad beyond the first 10-20 levels. The duration exotic refinements reduce the base fill time of each bar by a multiplier. These are the exotic refinements you should actually focus on. You should get at least 20 levels in everything else and then upgrade based on necessity and available exotic gems until at most level 40. Wondering how you can afford them? Make sure to have the Condense module while Infinity pushing.
Infinity Perks
Once a stone is fully charged it can be used on an infinity perk and then need to be charged again. After being used the speed and amount bonus that were stockpiled get reset. The ones that are in bold are highly recommended.

Use Perks
These use up all the charge and puts the stones on charging to perform a 1 time use function. These perks can be used infinitely with a couple exceptions, they display an "X" on the button if wont do anything, for instance if you want to use the water stone to finish a shipment but you don't have a shipment currently in progress.

Toggle Perks
